My son is a ref and he just texted, “The nwsl commentators are so bad at rules interpretation.”

Thank you. Worth noting the failures of the broadcasters!

Yes and… did anyone actually want princess day at the NWSL?!

Cringey. Rage-inducing. Offensive.

Well we got to Victory (while traveling away from DC) and we got this big ol’ stinker. Thanks @nwslsoccer.com

Everything in the final third is too slow… Like they just don’t know/trust eachother’s movement well enough to make a quick pass

if you want to know the history of this kind of policy, I made a podcast two years ago that explained why these tests make no sense, how they were already used and eventually abandoned by the IOC in the 80's and 90's, and the devastating impacts they have on real athletes: www.tested-podcast.com

FWIW it looks like “Zaboola” is the actual loser - and smart, grown-up people don’t waste their time writing useless, unkind things like this on platforms that allow them to remain anonymous. Your work is still meaningful to lots of people!

We were just discussing if this is more gladiator or D&D

If you live in and/or care about DC and good-quality info, and you haven’t yet checked out @51st.news - there’s no better time… 👇‼️

What would it take for Rock Creek NPS to achieve the basic responsibility of shoveling a sidewalk nearly *two weeks* after the storm? (This is along 16th St NW beside Carter Barron) @cmfrumin.bsky.social @cmlewisgeorgew4.bsky.social @51st.news

Thanks! What is NYR? (I was confused by STR but then figured that one out - "short term replacement")

Alison MacAdam @ajmacadam.bsky.social · 26/01/2026

This is the absolute truth. (Here’s looking at you, @verizonofficial.bsky.social “live agent.”)

Alison MacAdam @ajmacadam.bsky.social · 25/01/2026

Thank you for this! Your explanation underscores something I’ve been thinking about (and worrying about): Calls to “abolish ICE” are partly missing the point. It’s not just ICE.

Oh wait! Sotomayor is with me on this

Alison MacAdam @ajmacadam.bsky.social · 21/01/2026

I’m puzzled by something ancillary here: Has the court already decided that a social media post constitutes acceptable “notice”? (Thanks for all your analysis!)

Alison MacAdam @ajmacadam.bsky.social · 17/01/2026

Agree. I really struggle to enjoy a movie peopled by unlikeable people

Alison MacAdam @ajmacadam.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Also - I would happily hand money over to so many fully-paywalled newspapers/newsites … if they offered a way of buying individual articles!

Amazing. Now - let’s please fix the ridiculously bright headlights.

What do we think: Must it be plural or can we accept a singular JORT?

Does FIFA just not know that the NWSL exists?

Alison MacAdam @ajmacadam.bsky.social · 12/12/2025

Have read and listened to your work from afar - and I don’t doubt you are going places (and hopefully, towards more great coverage of women’s soccer!).

Alison MacAdam @ajmacadam.bsky.social · 06/12/2025

Kind of cool but also makes me feel 🤢
