It’s not designed to rival the NWSL. It’s basically going to be like an under league, the league one offiliation has to do money, sponsors and rules.

Their goal I think is to help rookies who aren’t ready for the pace of the NWSL and to make more sports for professional players.

Plus the seasons don’t overlap.

First few signings for the USL are out!

While all three are former NWSL players, they do seem like players who'd be unlikely to get NWSL contracts at this stage in their careers. I wonder if its indicative of the level we'll see at the USL? I'm guessing there will also be a ton of college grads/young players almost using USL as a feeder league for NWSL vs a true rival league.

Tell me you’re a shitty person without telling me you’re a shitty person.

Fuck anons doing shit like this when someone disagrees with them.

The interview confirmed everything for you 😅😅😅😅 that is hilarious. Shows how much bullshit you make up in your head. You are just projecting your own fears of being cheated on onto two random strangers.

Get fucking help

Yeah, confirmed it for me and everyone else who can read and have eyeballs. Imagine coming to someone's inbox and defending someone who doesn't give a shit about you, but do you anon, this will be the last message I respond to from you, hope your night is terrible. ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

[13uswntimagines]

Listen, if you’re going to be an ass on anons, maybe tumblr isn’t the place for you. You don’t get to tell people to get a life, because guess what, you’re the one following them. You voluntarily wanted to see their opinions and thoughts. If that bothers you, then fucking go away.

Easy.

You don’t need to interact and be a dickwad.

The interview confirms that Ashlyn and Ali weren’t split up before she started dating Sophia. Which makes Ashlyn a piece of trash.

You are an actual psycho. Nothing in the interview had anything to do with Ali

You need to get a fucking life

Looks like Ashlyn has two people in her corner, Sophia and You, congratulations for sticking up for someone who cheated on their wife when she was at home taking care of their kids, you're just as bad, now get out of my inbox.

KC can’t defend or take set pieces.

He’s still a terrible coach, just with faster players.

How is KC so deadly on offense when Vlatko's national team couldn't score their way out of a wet paper bag?

[13uswntimagines]

They’re fucking obsessed with him over here. At least I get to boo the shit out of him at every home game.

We have no defense and we can’t take set pieces for shit but they act like he’s such a good coach.

Fucking stupid.

nooo 😭

🇸🇪 or 🇦🇺 ?

[13uswntimagines]

especially when that was part of their brand. the whole “we do things differently here we don’t blindside players”

i get that they want to free up cap space for a potential christen press return, but these players are people. and now their own fans are upset with them too, and i don’t blame them. paige nielsen is a beloved player.

Yeah…

[13uswntimagines]

now i’m no acfc fan… but paige nielsen and amandine henry for a measly $175k?? angel city got fleeced

Them not telling players before trading them is gross

[13uswntimagines]

They have to make spots if injured players are going to come back. Henry wasn’t getting minutes and it was a good move to let her leave.

Hold on a goddamn minute

ACFC also just got rid of AMANDINE HENRY???

[13uswntimagines]

I’ve got 2 recs… they’re not sports related but they’re really fucking good.

How to find a missing girl

Purposefully accidentally

Need more queer (wlw specifically) sports books recs!!! Basketball or soccer or hockey or really anything

I’ve read Cleat Cute, Hot Shot, She Drives me Crazy, Home Field Advantage.

big emotions reader after arsenal win the Conti Cup!

I’ll do this one as soon as I pass my comprehensive exam.

[13uswntimagines]

could we get a p4 off alessia and the mma fighter?

Pt. 4 and 2 prequels are already started.

I’ll probably finish/post them after my PhD comprehensive qualifying exam. This way I can write them when my brain doesn’t feel like it’s melting

[13uswntimagines]

I fucking loveeeeeeee this!

bsf, can we pretty pls see something with the one day that r actually chooses to cuddle leah instead of lessi. lessie doesn’t know what to do with herself besides pout about how unfair it is. and leah’s all like “welcome to my world babe”

as always just because i write this doesn't mean i ship them in real life! switch up II l.williamson & a.russo

"baby she's going to be home in like two minutes, am i really that awful as company?" alessia frowned playfully as you shifted impatiently in your seat, glancing to the door every few seconds as if you could magically make your other girlfriend appear faster.

"of course not lessi baby, you know you've missed her just as much as i have." you assured with a smile, moving to sweetly kiss her. "mm not as much as you have, i quite like not having to share." the blonde teased, hand on your neck moving you back into a proper kiss.

though she only held your attention for a few more moments as keys sounded in the door and you instantly pulled away, head whipping sideways as leah stepped in bags dropping to the floor with a thud as she sang out hello.

you were in front of her in record time, the defender wrapping her arms around you tightly as you inhaled deeply having missed her immensely the last nine days she'd been away.

leah had been away in jordan again with the arsenal foundation and as much as both you and alessia were endlessly proud of her there had been a definite hole in your relationship and your shared home without leah's presence.

"careful darling, someone might think you missed me." leah teased with a rasp, clearly exhausted from the travel. "so much, it felt like nine years!" you mumbled into her shoulder as her body vibrated with laughter.

feeling her nudge your chin upwards you looked up still in her arms, the taller girl connecting your lips in a fierce kiss. if leah hadn't known you'd missed her before she certainly did now as you ravished her like she'd been away for nine months not nine days.

pulling away leahs head span a little as you smiled happily seeing the slight daze in her eyes, pecking her lips a few more times and stepping back allowing alessia to take your place as the two blondes exchanged their own greetings.

"babe leave that! i'll take it later." leah pulled away from kissing your other girlfriend, chin resting on alessia's shoulder as you grabbed her bag and headed for the bedroom, waving off her words dismissively as she shook her head.

"you've got no leg to stand on baby she gets that stubbornness from you, pair of you are argumentative as ever." alessia grinned teasingly, leah rolling her eyes and kissing her to shut her up which worked, alessia's head now spinning and lips a little swollen as leah pulled away tugging on her bottom lip.

"where are you goin? i just got back less!" the defender asked, smug smile dropping as alessia reached past to grab her keys. "shops. making your favourite for dinner later!" alessia smiled, swinging her keys around on her finger.

"can you get some more avocados please babe?" you sang out from the bedroom. "her and her fucking avocado toast." alessia mumbled with a sigh as leah grinned in agreement. "of course baby!" alessia plastered a fake smile on calling out to you making leah chuckle.

"be fast, i missed you both." leah pouted, alessia kissing it away with a smile. "hey wait!" you yelled out hearing the door open, sprinting out of the bedroom as alessia raised an eyebrow, one foot out the door.

"you forgot something." you spoke in a duh tone as she frowned, a little confused. but you leaning in to kiss her made the taller girls cheeks blush pink. "okay now you can go." you grinned, squishing her face in your hand.

"sap." alessia rolled her eyes playfully before leaving, her car starting up as leah collapsed into the sofa with a sigh. "hello." the blonde lit up as you joined her, tugging you to sit on her lap.

"you look shattered my love." your arms wound around leahs neck, playing absentmindedly with her baby hairs. "yeah there was a grizzly baby on the flight, cried the entire time." leah groaned as you frowned.

"its only early. you could take a nap and then be back up about lunchtime so you still sleep tonight?" you suggested, leahs head falling to your shoulder as she pulled your body even tighter against her own.

"only if you join me."

when alessia returned home around an hour later her eyebrows furrowed at just how quiet it actually was. bringing in the shopping from her car she was equally as surprised when neither you or leah appeared to help like normal.

venturing off to find the two of you a smile settled finding you both wrapped up together in bed, limbs entangled and chests rising and falling.

the sight made the striker chuckle, never having been able to fall asleep as easy as you or leah let alone with the blinds open and sunlight streaming in like it was right now.

leaving you both be for awhile she busied herself putting everything away, quickly returning to the bedroom afterwards where leah now lay awake, her free arm holding her phone.

"she really would sleep through an earthquake huh?" alessia whispered with a grin nodding to you curled up practically on top of leah who rolled her eyes with a smile hinting at her lips.

"you'd think she was the one with jetlag." leah chuckled, hissing as you suddenly pinched her bare thigh. "she also has ears and a name." you mumbled tiredly into leahs neck where your face was buried.

"leave me be, less's snoring has been keeping me up." you exhaled deeply as alessia scoffed, grabbing a throw cushion and smacking you with it.

"that is simply not true! you've been up late reading your stupid books and then getting up ridiculously early as always." your girlfriend remanded, leah feeling your lips curl into a smile against her skin.

between the three of you it was you who was the early bird, alessia the night owl and leah a combination of the two depending on her mood.

"mm i don't know, i've definitely heard rumours that you snore before from ella on camps." leah grinned teasingly as you felt the bed dip as your girlfriend settled on your other side.

"you both sleep with me every night! i do not snore!" alessia huffed with a scowl, arms wrapping around your waist and attempting to tug you into her own chest.

"no, i want leah." you grumbled tiredly, clinging onto the older blonde and shuffling your body away as again alessia scoffed. "baby." she tried again with the same results, an amused smile settling in leahs features who made no move to intervene.

"stop." you lazily swatted away alessias hands which continued to try and pry you off of leah.

"hey! why am i being left out?" alessia scowled, sitting up and glaring down at the two of you. "you've had me for nine days all to yourself, don't be needy." you huffed, pressing your face more into leahs neck as her fingers absentmindedly traced lines up and down your back.

"needy! you're the clingiest one here." alessia accused, one singular hand popping up to flip her off making leah laugh quietly as alessias glare shifted toward her.

"she always chooses you to cuddle with and i have to slot myself in. welcome to my world babe!" leah grinned victoriously, your breathing evening out as you drifted back off to sleep and alessia flopped back into bed on her back, glaring up at the ceiling with her arms crossed.

"less, come on. we can still cuddle!" leah chuckled, patting the space right next to her as the younger girl ignored her, choosing instead to huff and groan and grunt clearly expressing her distaste every few minutes.

waking up at her latest annoyed grunt you shuffled down to rest your head on leahs chest, staring at the striker beside you tiredly.

"lessi you're such an aquarius." you shook your head hiding a smile at her childish behavior. "i'm just a girl, looking at her two girls, asking them to love her." alessia rolled onto her side with a pout, nose scrunching up adorably.

"we'll be sure to nominate you for your oscar babe." leah clapped slowly, eyes closed as you smiled and alessia kicked her gently. "hey!" the defender whined as you shuffled off of her, dropping back into your usual space in the middle as alessia launched at you.

"you're so needy." you laughed into her mouth as she tugged your back into her front and kissed you hungrily, leah cracking one eye open and rolling it. "just need cuddles from my pretty girl." alessia pulled away and smiled down at you charmingly.

leah suddenly cleared her throat, eyes still closed.

"my pretty girls." alessia corrected, one arm reaching over to tug on her top as leah shuffled a little closer, draping her own arm over you to wedge you in between them.

"my pretty girls."

congrats on getting the date for the exam!! you’ll do great. you’re very smart.

as for writing, please don’t worry, we will be here when you get back. it’s not a priority right now and that’s okay!

Thanks!

Tbh I’m hella nervous. I took a practice one with my lab mates that went pretty ok, but it’s still terrifying af.

[13uswntimagines]

I finally have a date for my PhD qualifying exam. Which is basically a test where my comittee quizes me on everything I know about my project, and science in general for 3 hours.

Ive been getting a lot of asks about when I’m going to post again. So I can finally say that it’ll be some time after May 16th.

Because until then I have to focus on the real world and not failing out of grad school.

[13uswntimagines]

Thisssssssssssss

I’m sorry but I strongly disagree with you on this Korbin thing. Let me start off that I myself am gay. The outrage and need to harp on this is ridiculous to me. Let them focus on football and winning with this new generation. This is a 20 year old kid who was raised in a conservative family and liked dumb shit on social media. Where is the tolerance, education and love? This is a kid who made a mistake and did this before she was on the team. Who the hell are we to say that someone who has worked their whole life for a sport they love should lose their job? Because they grew up conservative and have different views of a % of the fan base? I mean really get over yourselves, the entitlement to end someone’s career at 20 years old is absolutely crazy to me. Does what this kid tweeted keep you up at night? Not me! Her teammates, coaches, friends and family are who should matter when deciding this. And unless I missed something the tweet she liked about Rapinoe wasn’t about her liking her getting hurt. It was about her making fun how self absorbed Rapinoe is to say God ( who she doesn’t believe in) came to her final game just to injure her!

Imagine being 20 years old and having 50,000 fans boo you and what that would do to anyone’s mental health.

Try having some compassion, patience and empathy. Honestly this seems out of character for your usual post but I don’t know you. To each their own opinion when it comes to this.

I want to watch football and I want the USWNT to be #1 again in the world. I don’t care what any of them identify as for sexuality, religion, politics etc

Social media makes it real easy to forget these are actually people who have real lives.

We all need to be better.

Enjoy your weekend. ✌🏼

Sorry for the delay. I wanted to wait until I had a few minutes to properly reply. There's a lot in your ask so I'm gonna break it down piece by piece to try and address as much as possible and to keep my thoughts organised.

Part 1:

You're entitled to disagree and to express that, no need to apologise. But I don't particularly think I've been harping on or outraged. More like annoyed. If that's ridiculous to you, fair enough and maybe this isn't the right blog for you. The "let's focus on football" I do take issue with. This is the equivalent of "shut up and dribble". I, and many others, partly came to love this team because of their advocacy, willingness to speak on matters off the pitch etc. I dont want to focus just on football and winning. And if 2019 taught us anything its that we/they don't need to solely focus on soccer. This sentiment is giving carli Lloyd (not a compliment).

Part 2:

20 years old is not a kid. It's an adult. And one who has spent time at university, living abroad and with youth national teams. Shes grown up online (with social media and access to different viewpoints etc from a young age). Not a sheltered 15 year old who's never left her county or something.

Where is her tolerance and love? We don't need to tolerate transphobia or homophobia in 2024 in woso which is supposed to be a safe space. I have shown an abundance of tolerance and love for many Christians and yes, Conservatives over the years on this blog. Because they weren't spreading hate and homphobia. There's a difference in having views and spouting hate. And that's where many people are drawing the line. By the way, I would 100% lose my job if I posted that kind of stuff online and it came to the attention of my employer. And I'm not in the spotlight or part of an organisation that has traditionally been outspoken in the areas of equality etc.

I also have not said we should end her career. I dont want her on the USWNT right now (of course if she grows, learns and changes I'm open but judging by the lacklustre apology she's not there yet) but I've never said she can't have a career in soccer or I want to end it. She's also got a career with PSG I have never mentioned anything about.

Part 3:

I'm glad it doesn't bother you. It evidently does bother a large number of people in the community judging by the response to all of this. It's not just about someone tweeting something or whatever. It's about actively going out there to cause hurt to vulnerable communities and some of us don't want the team to stand for that.

It sure seems like her team mates (and players union) have issues with what she did judging by what was shared by USWNT players association and shared by so many players. This isn't just fans she has upset so I don't get your point. It's not just about her friends and family. You can read the Rapinoe thing however you like, the vast vast majority of people understood it to mean she was wishing ill on Pinoe and liking something about her being injured is in very poor taste no matter how you spin it.

Part 4:

Imagine being a trans 14 year old, in a world like our one and finding out that a player you admire was posting this crap about you? Imagine being an LGBTQ+ player who risked so much to fight for equality and such with the USWNT and seeing your jersey go to someone like this who likes crappy memes about you getting injured? By the way, at no point did I boo her? Wasn't even in the country where it happened? Nor did I tell anyone to? So I'm not sure what I did that was so "out of character "?

You're right about one thing though, you don't know me. But one things for sure, I care about more than just winning and being number one in the world. And I do care about that a whole lot, as anyone who has followed me closely for the past 5 years can tell.

And nowhere did I say that I care who identifies a certain way with their sexuality or religion etc. Several of my all time favourite players are Christians (Tobin and Lauren Holiday being two of the most obvious and vocal ones). I've been incredibly supportive of lgbt players (just look up my CP23 and TH or Ash and Ali pre divorce posts) as well as straight ones (Hello Alex Morgan and Syd Leroux).

Part 5:

I fully know these are real people, and I think most fans do to. There are real, vulnerable people reading and seeing what she is spreading too. And she needs to be aware of this, and yes, I think there needs to be consequences to her actions. I truly don't see how or why that means I "need to be better" in this respect and I don't think I need to be told it in a patronising way from someone who is telling me this is this kind of anonymous ask.
