Rusnak out with an undisclosed illness; Morris is now a dad (congrats!!) and out for that reason.
And Ruidíaz was supposed to start but is apparently now in street clothes on the sideline. Maybe the hamstring? (Was apparently warming up initially but then pulled). Sounds like Heber up top.
Also love that they had players and families model the new gear: https://www.soundersfc.com/eternally-yours/retail-gallery.
It does make me wonder if they signed Paul Rothrock primarily to be a model 😂
Totally agree. The crest is miles better - looks much more modern. I really like the way that they managed to refresh without losing continuity. The Carnation and Orca are also great - can see picking up Carnation gear for myself and Orca stuff for the kid. The refreshed typography and wavemark in the text also feels fresh but a good throwback. All in all, a win, IMO.
I was thinking the same thing re: King. Restricted free agency means that she could solicit offers from other teams, but Reign have the opportunity to match, right?
Not sure if you’re looking for Reign-centric stuff, but in addition to this and !nwsl@lemmy.world, you could also check out https://www.sounderatheart.com/ - they (Ride of the Valkyries) cover the Reign with great depth, and lots of other nwsl content is discussed on the site.
Would love to see many of these players back, but above all I hope that they can bring back Rose Lavelle. Just my absolute favorite women’s soccer player to watch.
Yeah, but the end of that second half… woof. Still, will take the win at altitude on the road midweek.
This is the lineup for the #jordanisthetrue9 and #freeatencio crews, for sure. And Leyva’s on the bench for Colorado, which I guess answers the question of whether or not loanees can play against their parent clubs…
Seems like a good guess?
Yeah, it’s a bummer… I know it’s good money in the NWSL world and she probably wanted to go when the opportunity presented itself, but it’s hard to lose a fan favorite for $160k…
I find that they’re great for headings, titles, dates, etc - a little emphasis in my notes. With that said, my pilot metropolitan’s stub nib has also always been really scratchy too, and hard starts a lot. It’s always been one of my most disappointing pens.
One of my favorite stub nibs is a Jinhao 80 (Lamy 2000 clone, usually sub-$10). I swapped out the Jinhao nib for a Lamy 1.1 stub, and it writes like a dream!
Nice - I had misread this as Diamine Earl Grey at first, and was very confused (“I’ve used this before and don’t remember any orange tones!”). But it does look beautiful!
Saddle Brown also looks very nice and versatile. Do you think that you need a medium nib to get the full spectrum of shading? I’ve sometimes been disappointed with browns that are too light with an F nib (bought a sample of Robert Oster Caffe Crema, but it really was too light for my daily use unless in an M, B, or stub).
The Diamine guitar inks just generally look like nice autumn inks - nice!
That is a pretty fascinating ink - seems to be a totally different color depending on nib and paper…
TROMPE was the one that clued me in, though. Definitely love a good trompe l’oeil…
Is this why she’s been sitting? Or is she really out of favor?
Yeah that was definitely the worst of the fill… Not super fun, that one
