Hello! I’m joining @PostSports as an editor full-time. Very grateful to the many people (and a lifelong love of grammar) who’ve helped me get here. Excited for the opportunity to keep working in this newsroom. ✌🏼 washingtonpost.com/pr/2021/09/23/…
🌸NEW POD🌸 We interviewed Spirit head coach Adrián González! We got details on his background, path to the Spirit, style of play, where to get authentic Spanish food in DC, and so much more! 🟢 open.spotify.com/episode/29PAOt… 🍎 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hey… #nwsl #woso #spirit
Oh hey I got a new gig! I’m now a senior writer for @TheAthletic covering the Commanders. As a wise man once said, it’s time to “let it f’in rip.”
It’s my turn to announce my upcoming Washington Post departure. I’ve loved (almost) every minute of it and will remain on social media (say hi now and then, will ya) as I watch sports and go scorched earth on my memoir.
Steve Goff is a stalwart of American soccer. He helped a whole generation of readers — everywhere, but especially in D.C. — understand and fall in love with this sport. I’m immensely lucky to have had him as a colleague and see up close how a legend does it. An incredible run.
Brothers in soccer. Congratulations to Steven Goff on his run with @washingtonpost . Honored to call him colleague and friend for close to 40 years. @dcunited @WashSpirit @USWNT @USMNT @MLS @FIFAcom @MarylandMSoccer #ThankYouSteve

Dan is such a smart, thoughtful and incisive editor who has always cared so deeply about making The Post’s Sports section the best it could be. Hard to imagine this place without him, but I’m fortunate to have worked with and learned from him.
Well. Tomorrow is my last day at The Washington Post. It’s been a total thrill.

I’m not sure what universe this England-Sweden penalty shootout is currently taking place in but it is a strange one
