There's a banner of a desert at the top and small frowny faces in Reign FC navy. Additional text reads: Boston has given up a goal for 5 straight. Please let my torment end.

Matchday means posterday. 1) Celebrate 300 games of Harveyball. 2) New style, same ole Phoebe Phriday. The goal drought ends tonight. The winds are changing. I can feel it in my bum elbow. #reignfc #nwsl

Two posters on a kitchen floor.

The first reads “300. Madness?? This. Is. Harveyball!!” With visual references to the movie 300 but in reign navy and gold.

The second poster reads “Phoebe Phriday” and has the silhouette of a soccer player in a Reign kit with Phoebe’s new headband style.

Matchday Reign FC Fam. I am manifesting a Ratcliffe goal today. Let's get a huge 3 points and home. As always, I will have my buttons, claws, bingo cards, and other typical nonsense. If you're feeling saucy, I will have about 100 extra orange ribbons in my bag. Come find me! #nwsl #thesignguy

Hysterically, even our bubble leagues produce a Circle of Parity. Now live on the site for your viewing pleasure. watmildon.github.io/NWSLParityCh... #nwsl #circleofparity

A circle of team logos with arrows pointing to a team they beat in the challenge cup.

SEA → UTA → NJY → HOU → POR → NC → WAS → CHI → SEA

Season starts tomorrow @wnba.com fans. You don't want to miss out on any @wnbascorigami.com scorigami joy!! Hit that sub button, hope for massive blowouts, dream of offense only matchups. Lose yourself in the quest for scorigami. #wnba #scorigami #wospo

A graph titled WNBA scorigami. there's a large cluster of orange squares of varying colors depending on how recently the scorigami happened. There are 1403 scorigamis with the most recent being between the Aces (107) and the Fever (98) on Sept 30, 2025.

Shameless Reign Stan@watmildon· May 7

Graph provided without commentary. (except lol) #nwsl #woso

Line chart titled "Utah Royals — 5-game rolling points average" in navy text. X-axis is per-season match number (labeled '25 G1/G10/G20, '26 G1/G5/G8); y-axis runs 0 to 3 points per game. The data is plotted in Royals yellow with a navy outline, with the off-season represented as a small grey band labeled "off-season" between the last 2025 game and the first 2026 game. The 2025 segment starts at 0.80 ppg around game 5, drops to a flat 0.20 ppg from games 10 through 14, then climbs sharply, peaking at 2.60 ppg around game 22 before falling back to 1.40 ppg by the end of the season. The 2026 segment starts at 0.80 at game 1, dips to 0.60, then climbs steadily, reaching the maximum of 3.00 ppg by game 8 (May 7). A dashed claret-red vertical line marks "Ally Sentnor traded (Aug 1, 2025)" — placed exactly at the bottom of the trough where the trajectory begins to turn upward. Caption beneath: "Source: American Soccer Analysis. 3=W, 1=D, 0=L. X-axis is per-season match number; off-season compressed."

I would be remiss to not include the OG circle. The league has come a long way but the circle remains with us. Hopefully it always will. Pay the players, trans rights are human rights, boo Portland.

The 2013 circle of parity. The loop is:

BOS → WNY → NJY → WAS → SEA → CHI → POR → FCKC → BOS

Once again, chaos league delivers. All teams are terrible. All teams are wonderful. Bless and love the circle! watmildon.github.io/NWSLParityCh... #nwsl

A circle of team logos showing an incomplete chain for the 2026 circle of parity. The gap from DEN to BOS can be filled today.

Overlaid text reads “the circle is still broken. I believe in you swans. Plz win onegame.”

Shameless Reign Stan@watmildon· Apr 27

The NWSL Circle of Parity is in a weird spot. For the first time (I think ever?) we have a full chain of teams but no circle. However, if BOS (at home) can defeat DEN in a few weeks then we may be looking at one of the earliest circle completions. watmildon.github.io/NWSLParityCh... #nwsl

A funny followup, Claudia blew up her knee and was out for 2 months right after I ordered 100 claws and this poster (that made it to CBS!) was originally drafted for her. Laurel was outstanding that game. Definitely one to remember. #nwsl

the "they're the same picture" meme with the text claudia on one side and the text brickwall on the other. dumped into my drafts folder a million years ago.

Instagram story snapshot from Claudia Dickey of Laurel Ivory and myself after the game with the updated poster complete with a real brick wall photo and her player pic.

Screen grab from CBS of Laurel walking around the pitch showing off the poster (she is so good!!) from a segment where they were singing all of her praises, be kind to her Boston.

BONUS! Support the PA, pay the players what they are worth, trans people have always existed and always will, and remember to boo Portland. /realend

It's so out of control at this point that the Reign are running a ticket bundle with knock off claws. So, just know that it rules to be a weird fan. Make something really dumb that you love. But also, it would be nice if the paper of record got the facts right. The real story is very silly. /end

I gave some to Claudia parents (they're gems) when they attended a game. Reign training staff came over and got claws. Eventually the meme broke containment and it's was all over the locker room. The other keepers were on it Early. /7

Neeku: "Hi! Thank you again for bringing clas to the game tomorrow!! Could we possible have 10???! Also, we don't want to take all of them so if that's too much then whateever number works great. Thank you, we are so pumped"

Me: "Happy to bring them. I will have 10 for y'all at the game. My pleasure. Go get that W! Wooooooo."

Shameless Reign Stan@watmildon· Apr 22

Folks near us asked about them and I started selling them for my cost ($5) or handing them out to particularly enthusiastic kiddos in the stands. Pro tip: if you had a Claudia keeper kit on, you got welcomed into "The Squad" gratis. A few games later, it happened someone found my email. /5

snippet of an email reading... "I am looking to purchase a few of these, now muct are they and how do I find you at the game?"

Shameless Reign Stan@watmildon· Apr 22

On April 1 2024 I bought 100 foam lobster claws with the text CLAWD SQUAD written on them. This is an insane thing to do on a whim but, we all need our mirth. Now whenever she makes a save we can do lobster claws in approval. It's very fun. /4

In March the next year I printed another and Clawds was gracious enough to come and say hey, I gave it to her and we had a laugh about it. But a leaping save in that game gave me a new idea I couldn't shake... /3

In November of 2023 I hauled this absurd set of posters all the say to San Diego for the championship game (RIP Pinoe's achilles). I remember telling my wife "I think this one is too stupid of a poster to not print, I love it too much". We lost, we flew home, but I adored the goofiness. /2

A collection of 10 differen posters arranged on the floor including the one from the first post. They are all various puns and nonsenses related to Reign players "3 Lu Moon" "Olo Reign" "Air Jordyn" etc.

The @theathletic.com claims Lynn invented Claw-dia but the true story is that one absolutely deranged fan (me) invented and has been building that brand for the best US keeper for years. Please put in the papers that I am annoyed. A thread... #nwsl www.nytimes.com/athletic/721...

A poster reading "Can't Beat Clawdia" with Claudia Dicky in her OL Reign keeper kit and obscenely badly photoshopped lobster arms.

Kiddo won a soccer ball with some signatures on it. We have worked out the Reign (Lu Barnes) and other Sounders sig (Brad Evans). Any @soundersfc.com fans want to help identifying this one? #soundersfc

Blue soccerball with a player signature. Absolutely unclear squiggles and no number.

I am avoiding thinking about The Horrors for a few minutes by updating my "Women's Sports Bars" map with some more newly opened places. If you know of others, I am happy to add them (to OpenStreetMap, where I pull my data from). #wospo #nwsl #pwhl #wnba overpass-ultra.us#map&m=3.72/3...
