Man or Woman- Why sports sociology? How do you think your education has helped how you write and speak about football?- The upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup next summer will be hosted by Canada, Mexico, and the United States. Is there a worry from people outside the US about traveling - What is the average Premiere Ligue fan’s reaction to Jona Giraldez becoming the coach at OL Lyonnes? Has it caused lots of discourse around multi club ownership like there has been in the US?- Lots of exclusions from Les Bleus from this year’s Euros. Will we see the players over 30 that were excluded in the Nations League matches in October?- Delphine Cascarino is an NWSL MVP candidate. Should we be surprised that her game has translated so well in a different league?- Eugenie Le Sommer has taken to Liga MX Femenil very well. Does her move and Cascarino’s move represent a shift for more players to come to North America?
