Well -- embarrassed to say watched my first NWSL game of the season last night. The Semi final game between the Courage and Chicago that got moved to Portlandia.
Entertaining game and from what the announcers said and others on here, not a dirty game at all when compared to the brutal Thorns!
It was definitely a track meet, up and down. Chicago could not get the ball to Sam Kerr's feet and never made an adjustment. I would have pulled her back a bit to try to get her the ball more, but they didn't make any noticeable changes. Ertz is ertz, tries to kill a player with every tackle.
Courage is a deep squad, with athletes everywhere you turn. Mewis had a freaking beautiful goal from a shot outside the box to make it 2-0. Man she is listed at 5'10", she easily looks 6 feet. There center back is got some height also, Abby Erceg, 5'10 and again looks 6'2". I wish I watched them with Zerboni.
I'll be rooting for them over the thorns for sure.

Am I the only one who hates the team names in the NWSL?

Am I the only one who hates the team names in the NWSL? Maybe because I love them and would take any of them over boring and lame United FC...
