Am I remembering right that Whitey Cunningham went from scoring about 8 points per game to about 2 ppg right about the time she decided the world needed to hear her Very Important Thoughts about trans athletes? 🤔 #WNBA

The outcome of the evening game takes a little of the sting off today's main event, I feel. #Seahawks

Well, we all know at some point the #Seahawks would lose a game. It still fucking SUCKS. No givsy-backsies on the trophy, obvs.

Call time out? Why would we have wanted to do that? #Seahawks

Looks like yahoo's fantasy game gave me JSN's passing yards. #Seahawks

Did that pisher actually catch the ball in-bounds? #Seahawks

That is also a nice way to avoid our goal-line issues. #Seahawks

I don't know what Myers' problem was during the preseason, but I'm glad he appears to be past it. #Seahawks

Wait a sec: Did we just run a screen pass that... worked??? #Seahawks

As one who has JSN on my fantasy team, I see a real upside to our being unable to punch it in from the 1-yard line. 💙💚 #Seahawks

And that wraps up one of the most satisfying #LAGalaxy wins of the year, 3-2 over a bunch of punk-ass b-words in Colorado Rapids uniforms.

Haak heads in Taylor's corner kick at 73 minutes to give the #LAGalaxy the lead. Hearing Joe Tutino happy and stoked with the Gs' play is certainly a refreshing change.

Chris Wilhelm @cwilhelm24.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Are own-assists a thing? The Rapids' keeper passes the ball right to João Klauss right in front of the goal, and he taps in the tying goal at 65 minutes. #LAGalaxy Once again, ladies, gentlemen, and non-binary fans: Dinking around with the ball in your own end is dumb and bad.

Chris Wilhelm @cwilhelm24.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
João Klauss makes the the #LAGalaxy at least won't get shut out at 53 minutes. The goal leaves the Rapids all up in their feels, and all up in the ref's face, for some reason.

Chris Wilhelm @cwilhelm24.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Really, I don't know what it was about this game that made me feel a shitting of the bed was imminent. But I fucking hate when that feeling turns out to be not just my anxiety. Anyway, now the #LAGalaxy are down 2-0 at home to the Colorado fucking Rapids, 40 minutes in.

Chris Wilhelm @cwilhelm24.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
I was all afternoon and early evening grading essays, but I met my target for the day just before the #LAGalaxy kicked off. I was thinking it'd be extra nice if they could avoid shitting the bed tonight. Giving up a goal within the first 5 minutes sure doesn't look very fucking promising. 😒

So if Dream-Liberty takes until 7:30 to wrap up, as appears quite possible at this rate, where can we see the first quarter of Storm-Wings??? #WNBA

Hell yes, tush push for Barner to score the completely gratuitous 4th touchdown!!! 💙💚 #Seahawks

Then Reus puts away a nice cross from, um, either Taylor or Calegari. Some one of our guys, anyway! #LAGalaxy

Our back line doesn't notice Caldeira sneaking around behind them, and he heads the ball in over Marcinkowski. #LAGalaxy

Chris Wilhelm @cwilhelm24.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
Nice one by P. Ruiz! How long has it been since the #LAGalaxy have had a guy who could score on a free kick (Zlatan, right?)?

This is a really excellent question:

I doubt his intent enters into it. But Putin clearly wants the stable world economy destroyed, so that's why he's given this set of instructions to his big orange geisha boy.

Thank you, Sofia Huerta, for making the evening slightly less shitty. I mean, this would have been a lousy experience even if the announcers hadn't been drawn from the other team's cheer squad. #NWSL #WitnessTheReign

Chris Wilhelm @cwilhelm24.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
Say, is NWSL+ giving us Angel City's in-house announcers, or are the Reign in fact just playing that crappily? #NWSL #WitnessTheReign

Chris Wilhelm @cwilhelm24.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
Evidently the Reign looked at the standings before the game and came out playing like they were already up 1-0, with predictable results. 😩 #NWSL #WitnessTheReign
