Borrowing Wiki graphic to save time: #NWSL launched with mostly "nickname" nomenclature in 2013. I think we will still see that in some form (Summit/Legacy) but literally all but one launch/rebrand the last 5 years has been "FC". Don't think that's changing. Over to you, Columbus.

Imagine how luck Schmitt is that he doesn’t represent a state that has the Jets, Mets and Nets. He’d never figure out who was doing what.

Crazy game in Columbus tonight - drama and real bad blood between the teams. Via @bensteiner00.bsky.social, Crew coach Laurent Courtois was sharply critical of Miami gamesmanship postgame: "I would be red carded after five minutes against those guys. What they do is bad for the game, and it's sad."

For what it's worth, numerous MLS clubs have called Wilfried Nancy this year and the answer has been he wanted to focus on Europe. Who knows if that changed after a summer with no job and the opportunity of LAFC... but that has been the direct feedback

Delaying start of half should be a yellow. Early on Miami player holding the ball on a restart should have been a yellow. Messi excessively arguing on a foul should have been a yellow. 🟨🟨🟨 #Crew96

The amount of dissent the referee has allowed Miami to get away with so far is INSANE. And then they're late out of the locker room AGAIN. MLS is a joke for letting this continue. It's a farce. #Crew96

Just witnessed a family at the crosswalk on the way to the #crew96 match. Both kids in Messi gear and the dad in a Bama hat. The dad told his kids “dont walk ‘til the white man says you can.” He was definitely talking about the cross walk light guy but maybe not only

#Crew96 starting lineup. Notable change -> D Bailly is back in the starting 11 at CB. He and Zawadzki are the starting CBs for Columbus. Mendez & Martinez working as strikers. Rodriguez, Chambost, Habroune & Zaroury in the midfield. Amundsen/Farsi wingbacks & Schulte in goal.

Avon Lake Public Library union members (including me) have been working out of contract since 5/30. Library administration refuses to pay us anywhere near a living wage, so we're spreading the word thru the community.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.
When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.
