sounds good. i'm hopeful.

 

Here's an update on Kelley O'Hara and her recovery fro ankle surgery.

Any news on Sky Blue-Red Bull partnership. I've heard nothing from this team except for players going on low and expected returns next season. If Red Bull doesn't buy the team do they stay at Yurcak or move to another location (Princeton or Kean.) If Red Bull buys the team, will there be a name change? Is Christen Press signing?

 

Deal is "dead in the water":

Maybe we should start an actual 2014 thread? X-D

 

Have they done enough to rate a thread?

 

Well, what they haven't done (RBNY deal) is probably worth an entire thread of discussion.... Or, at least that's how it's turned out on Equalizer.

 

Maybe we need an Also Ran thread to sum up the moves of Portland, SkyBlue and WNY.

 

Well, at least here's a 2013 cap:

Sky Blue CEO Thomas Hofstetter says 2013 was first year team finished "on target" and "on budget" (but not in the black). #NWSL

I really hope that Caitlin Foord will be back this season. Apparently she played as a forward today in W-League and scored three goals for Sydney FC in a 8:2 win against Perth Glory (the other NWSL player Chantel Jones from Washington Spirit in goal).
