Megan Rapinoe & Lori Lindsey Reflect on NWSL Rise PLUS Megan Breaks Down Met Gala Fits + Angel Reese’s Message to the Media
Megan goes deep on the state of soccer with her good friend, former teammate and current commentator Lori Lindsey. The two talk about the NWSL’s rapid growth, why they’re not afraid of less parity in the league, and reminisce on how they bonded as openly gay athletes.
Megan also shares her top four looks from the athletes who attended the Met Gala and discusses why Angel Reese’s recent statements about the media could be a model for all players.
Plus, Megan takes a look at the latest stats pointing to another blockbuster year in women’s sports, and sends her flowers to Jess Fishlock and Tina Charles, who both recently announced their retirements.
