Shoo shoo with your bubble-bursting, I’m going to pretend that she’s retiring on the field after the Gotham game.
But yeah- I forgot the Olympic roster is so bizarrely tiny. That probably was a major contributing factor in Priestman having the discussion. Not sure if that happens in Portland yet.

However.....with the sale coming, the WC loss, and not being on the Olympic team, it’s a bit of a new era and the timing seems right. I wouldn’t be *shocked* if she announced her retirement out of nowhere, especially if the Thorns win something. A retirement tour is not something she’d enjoy lol
Lol, yeah if she's gonna do it, she's gonna try to sneak out the back door and not tell anyone. I imagine she just decides one day, and then quietly exits and is off the roster. What it will take to get to that point, though? Hell, there have been numerous "good times to do it." After winning Olympic gold was probably the pinnacle (and even then, probably 1-2 years too late.) But I could also see her saying "I wanna stick around the first year of new ownership and see this team through all of the new changes." Thing is, we already have plenty of leadership on this team...someone needs to tell her, "it's ok, we got this."
