Traveling today, but I found time to watch the entirety of the @timbers.com match in Seattle and: wow. I hope @timbersarmy.org, especially @tacovertops.bsky.social, have a great night up north. #rctid Someone grab me a scarf like this guy's for the return leg in a couple weeks:
Honestly, given his branding i think @drmitchpdx.bsky.social might be causing the crisis.
A few minutes to tipoff! Welcome back, WNBA and Fire Basketball, to Portland (and specifically District 2)! #portlandfire #wnba
Packed house, 4 first-half goals, loud crowd - MLS is back, and I'm back at Providence Park! #RCTID
The @timbers.com lost in Seattle this time. But I got to reconnect with @tacovertops.bsky.social friends and fellow Portlanders who made the trip up from @timbersarmy.org, and sing Bella Ciao at the top of my lungs, so it was still a good day. Take care of yourselves in dark times, friends.
I am able to stay out of a lot of Ducks-Beavers rivalry issues because I went to UW. I'm not particularly intense about it from a sports perspective, except once a year (Apple Cup). Great game, better fourth quarter, and the cup comes home to UW!
And with that, the results say "final" instead of "preliminary." I'm so excited to get started! rcvresults.multco.us/Reports/a18a...
Fifth results out this morning. 77k total votes counted. In this count we remain FIRST to get a D2 seat, followed by Elana Pirtle-Guiney and Dan Ryan. I'm confident in the eventual final results being favorable, and we also must ensure every vote is counted.
Fourth results released today. # of new votes added (66k total) still means it's not final, but I'm now a little confident. In D2, we are now IN 1ST PLACE after #RCV tabulations. (Dan has second-most 1st-ranks, gets 2nd seat; Elana has most 1st-ranks, gets 3rd seat). 1/2
