Great podcast for this newbie

✨fav podcast!✨

this podcast is amazing!! i listen to it all the time and i agree a lot with y’all about what u say about the uswnt BUT some stuff not so much.. like for example, Alex Morgan is amazing!! please understand that she deserves a spot on the Olympics roster!! that’s my opinion. I think she’s AMAZING on the San Diego wave and the uswnt i think her talent should be used at the Olympics on the uswnt. The uswnt is also sort of rebuilding rn so that also means getting younger and newer players, but we need at least a couple of veterans!! (including Alex Morgan)
that is my opinion and this doesn’t rly have a lot to do w the podcast but i hope y’all understand. Love the podcast!!! go attacking third!! (aka my fav podcast) Jesus loves u!!!! ❤️✨
