- The Washington Post has laid off hundreds of talented journalists, so many of whom I was lucky to work with over the years. The Post Guild launched this fund to support them:
- For The IX Soccer, @catabush.com wrote about the importance of access to analytics and why FBref losing Opta data is a huge blow for women's soccer coverage.

- the entire WaPo situation is obviously terrible but from a soccer angle, it's hard to imagine the paper will cover the Spirit/DCU much, if at all anymore. that is an enormous loss for soccer fans in the region and really, to those teams as well.

- anyway, go support @districtpressdc.bsky.social and anyone else covering local soccer on a regular basis but man it is bleak out there right now
- Want DCU news? These are the people showing up regardless of the team's record or national relevance: • @districtpressdc.bsky.social (specifically @blazindw.bsky.social & @sarahkallassy.bsky.social) • @joseumana.bsky.social for WTOP • @marioamaya28.bsky.social for Area Sports Network
- It was great to speak with DC Power sporting director Steve Birnbum to get an update on the direction of the club, from the flurry of signings made during the winter break to how the team hopes to get above the playoff line. For @districtpressdc.bsky.social: thedistrictpress.com/2026/02/03/s...
- Ryan with the yeoman’s work covering Loudoun United. A great read as always.
- Loudoun United take to 2026 with a new coach, a new identity and new organizational imprint, as their President Karl Sharman and Sporting Director Alen Marcina shared with us recently. thedistrictpress.com/2026/01/28/loudoun-…

- WALDOS SASH PAINT SPLATTER THESE ARE OUR JERSEYS
- This was probably our most popular article ever when we were Black & Red United. We reproduce the incredible 2017 opus from @blazindw.bsky.social where he argues correctly that the Waldos should have been the jersey identity for U.S. Soccer. #USMNT #USWNT

- True story: we put this out the morning they put shovels in the ground at Audi Field. Fully expected "they finally did it" articles to run the day, with this piece being a nice bonus. Over the next 24 hours @blazindw.bsky.social's Waldos article put up like 20x all of our other traffic combined.
