Fun Fact
Kazakhstan’s Minister of Communications and Informatics has blocked the Tumblr site because it contained 60 sites of terrorism, extremism, and pornography in 2015.
Also, this makes me wonder what Sue (even as a minority owner) will do with NJ/NY given the fact that they have a history of covering up abuse... in the report, they talk about Christie Holly. He was former coach of Sky Blue FC/had an actual relationship with '99 USWNT Christie Rampone and no action taken (before they rebranded to NJ/NY) + former gm Alysa LaHue being terminated without real information who helped with the rebrand
(coming from someone who used to be really into USWNT/NWSL, now more into WNBA)
I'm curious if Sue knew about the abuse situation before investing in NJ/NY?
Seeing as she's engaged to a famous NWSL/USWNT veteran, it's safe to assume she knew. Right?
Anyways...
Listen. I love Sue. But I'm not gonna pretend like money isn't her first priority. It is her first priority. Her friends all say she has a CEO personality. Diana Taurasi calls her a republican. I'm fine with this. I don't have some notion of Sue as this symbol of justice and progress. I understand that maybe she has a certain social media image. But that's just advertising. And Sue's just a person. And she's truly a centrist. The CBA she negotiated is controversial because she took a centrist position between players and owners. But because she's a centrist, the owners actually listen to her. If you send DT and Natasha Cloud to negotiate with owners, that would be a disaster. So sometimes you need a centrist in your posse. And that's Sue.
If you grill Sue about this investment, she'll have a great answer. Something about how the NY market is extremely important to NWSL success and revenue. She'll say investing in the NY market is for the greater good of women's soccer. And that we shouldn't let the actions of some people doom the entire Gotham project.
In the end though, I don't think she'll take an active role in the necessary reforms. She's just not really qualified to do that. But she's a useful media figure NJ/NY can use to come up with great answers to questions. I'd be surprised if they didn't use her.
Sue has great answers. That's why she's Sue. She's always right. She's been grilled on every women's basketball controversy. And she always comes up with an answer that no one can really be mad about. Even if it's not exactly what you wanted to hear, you just shrug and go "okay I guess."

This necklace has been used at least eight times over the years. It was first seen in the 1974 adaptation of Murder on the Orient Express, where Jaqueline Bisset wore it as Countess Andrenyi. In 1979 it appeared on Sarah Jane Curran as Princess Augusta Sophia in The Prince Regent as well as on Clare Higgins as Kitty Bennet in Pride and Prejudice. It was not used again until 1997 when it appeared on Greta Scacchi as Juliana in The Serpent’s Kiss. In 2005 it was seen on the BBC production Beethoven, worn by Holly Radford as Eleonore Wegeler, and in 2007 it appeared in Love in the Time of Cholera adorning the neck of Giovanna Mezzogiorno as Fermina. In 2009 it was recycled by Laura Pyper as Jane Fairfax in Emma, and finally in 2022 it was spotted being worn by Gwendoline Christie as Principal Larissa Weems in Wednesday.
I have zero expectations with the live-action Dead or Alive movie, and it's surprisingly fun. Also, this scene with Christie and Tina is just... *chefs kiss*
