Okay, we’re back for one last episode– We couldn’t let the Thorns go to the NWSL Final without one, right? We discuss the semifinal against the Orlando Pride (and possibly a member of that team who may or may not have been kicked out of Epcot), the season as a whole and tomorrow’s final against […]
