  • Fantastic Podcast

    I could listen to Tamerra Griffin talk about anything and getting to hear her insight on my favorite sport? The best. I really look forward to all the ways this podcast has expanded my knowledge about the global game.

  • like the athletic itself, they’ve just thrown up their hands rather than covering the NWSL

    Sakovitz specifically is essentially a tiktok personality acting like a reporter but is no more than a bad podcast host. No knowledge. No understanding. Just platitudes and social media taglines. It’s fallen so far and is rendered totally useless as of 2026.

    Given up on this. No idea of NWSL history - just slavishly repping the current favs even tho the league is renowned for its parity.
