1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,320 Speaker 1: Hello, everybody, Welcome to this week's episode of Rain Weekly 2 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: on ninety three point three KGr FM. 3 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 2: I'm your host Kiley Dunning. Laura Shott is. 4 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,960 Speaker 1: Out this week, although the second half of this episode 5 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 1: we will be re airing last week. So just a 6 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: quick one for me as the Rain finished their three 7 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: game homestand two wins and a tie, the last one 8 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: being that hard fought tie against Denver Summit, which leads 9 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: me into what this episode is really about. And that's 10 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: about women's sports, and that's about showing up, and that's 11 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: about this is not just a moment for women's sports, 12 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 1: you guys, it's been a moment. 13 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 2: It's been a moment. It's been a moment. 14 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: At a certain point, saying it's a moment starts to 15 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: become insulting. The US women's soccer team has been the 16 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: best in the world for decades. They are going to 17 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: be kicking off at Lumen Field on April fourteenth. Our goalkeeper, 18 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 1: reinfc's goalkeeper Claudia Dickie has been called in for that 19 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: and will get to potentially play and start and appear 20 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: in a US women's national team game at her home stadium. 21 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 3: That is. 22 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: Insanely cool. Not from a women's sports perspective, just from 23 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: a sporting perspective. We are all getting so excited as 24 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: well we should at the possibility that Christian rolled On 25 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: makes the US men's national team and his name to 26 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: that roster and will appear in a match at Lumen. 27 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: That is insanely, insanely cool. Both stories are insanely cool, 28 00:01:55,880 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: and both stories are cool for the same reason. An 29 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: athlete who plays for one of our home teams RAINFC 30 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: or Sounders EPSY is gonna get to play internationally at 31 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: their home stadium. 32 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: This is not about women, This is not about men's sports. 33 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: This is about how cool those opportunities are for these 34 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 1: athletes and what an insanely amazing opportunity that is for 35 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: fans here in Seattle. I know I keep using insane 36 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: I know I occasionally sound like a loop. 37 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 2: That's not the point. The point is how cool this is. 38 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 2: You guys. 39 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: You can get tickets for April fourteenth at Lumenfield US 40 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: Simon's national team against Japan. 41 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 2: And see Claudia. 42 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: Dickey in goal, playing for her club and country, just 43 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: like in the summer, when hopefully Christian Roland gets to 44 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: suit up for the men's national team and play at 45 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: lumen and there's reports that we're gonna be, you know, 46 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: setting a record for attendance for a US women's national 47 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: team match at Lumen.

This is a once in a lifetime 57 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: potentially opportunity the women's team.

And I 140 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 6: think our whole team is like that too. It's not 141 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 6: just starters, it's not just subs, Like all of us 142 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 6: matter every single game and we need everybody. 143 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 7: So that's my role. 144 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:08,559 Speaker 4: On the bench. 145 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 5: On the field, you're hard to miss with that bright 146 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 5: bow and your hair.

So I went out to the craft store 151 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 6: and got the brightest orange rub and I could find, 152 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 6: and I've worn it ever since. So it's the same 153 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 6: ribbon for God's College, but one hundred years it's one 154 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 6: hundred years old. 155 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 3: I have no idea, but yeah, that's a story.

New expansion team, hard 178 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: to you know, I mean they've only played a very 179 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: small handful of games at this point. But shout out 180 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: to Denver who at their home opener at Mile High Stadium, 181 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 1: which is where the Denver Broncos play. It is a 182 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: massive NFL NFL stadium. Sixty three thousand and. 183 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 2: Four fans attended that match. 184 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: Sixty three thousand people went to go watch a If 185 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: anyone ever tries to make the argument, then no one 186 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: watches women's sports. 187 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 2: And it like that, I mean, come on, like sixty 188 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 2: three that I actually looked this up. 189 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: The Colorado Rapids, the MLS team average about fifteen thousand 190 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: at their soccer specific stadium, and the women's team brought 191 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: in sixty three thousand. Yes, it's the it was the 192 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: aug girl home match. But I would not be surprised 193 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: if we see crowds like that over and over and 194 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: over again, and every single season. We've broken an attendance 195 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 1: record every single season for the last three seasons. It's 196 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: all right, we can bring in fifty thousand, all right, 197 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: we can bring in fifty five thousand, all right, we 198 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: can bring in sixty three thousand. 199 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 9: Yep. 200 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's so wonderful to see and I 201 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: just I kind of want to dispel this is gonna 202 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: be my soapbox moment, Laura, and then we'll get into 203 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: the preview. I would really like to dispel this. There's 204 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: still an ethos that I feel that the women's teams, 205 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: a lot of them are kind of attached to men's 206 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: teams as well, but it's the afterthought. It's the you know, 207 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 1: people might watch this or they might not. There's not 208 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: the same level of assumed investment. And I think that 209 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: that's an important word to put assumed, because people assume 210 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 1: that when you bring in a new men's team, they're 211 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: gonna immediately shatter records and everything is gonna be great 212 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be this new amazing thing. 213 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 7: Mhm, that same assumption. 214 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: Should I mean we at this point women's sports have 215 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: earned that assumption. Yeah, year after year after year. We 216 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: should be done fighting this narrative that oh, we're scrappy 217 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: and we need to fight for everything and blah blah blah. 218 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 3: Like we're past that. 219 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 2: We're past that. 220 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: I've spoken to sports business experts and they all say, 221 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: you know, people investing in women's sports now, they're not 222 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: looking at it as you know, this this is our 223 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,599 Speaker 1: diversity thing. They're looking at it as no, this is 224 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: how we're gonna make a lot of money, and this 225 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: is a really, really really, you know, this is a business. 226 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 7: This is a business is. 227 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: Gonna make us a lot of money. And that needs 228 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: to now be the assumed attitude if you're gonna go 229 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 1: in and own a women's sports team, because if your 230 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: belief isn't there, and if you're looking at it as 231 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:04,719 Speaker 1: just you know, the charity case that which I'm not 232 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 1: saying that anyone does that, but there is a prevailing 233 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 1: narrative still that exists in this patriarchal country that we're in. 234 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 2: And it's done. 235 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 9: I'm just done with it. 236 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 2: I'm done the proof. It's proven to be done. It's 237 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 2: proven to be done. 238 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: We enough with this, like, oh yeah, we proved again, 239 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: we proved again, we proved again. The men's teams don't 240 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: have to say that, they don't have to say they've 241 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: proven anything. It's just assumed. And at this point in 242 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: our history, it should be assumed. So that was my 243 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: soapbox minute. I think it was a minute about a minute. 244 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: I didn't time myself. 245 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 7: The good one, but that was my soapbox minute. 246 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 9: I'm with you, and I mean I played in the 247 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 9: first league and we won a national championship, and I remember, 248 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,599 Speaker 9: you know when the fifteen to twenty thousand range was 249 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 9: a really big deal, right, and it's still a big 250 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 9: deal absolutely. Now you know, those those numbers are quickly 251 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 9: we're trending towards those being averages, and that's amazing. 252 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 7: That's not a one off. 253 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 9: Those are the averages now. The one offs are the 254 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 9: sixty three thousand at the NFL stadiums. And you've got 255 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 9: to start using the NFL stadiums. And I mean, we're 256 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 9: lucky we're at Lumen. We could you know, have one 257 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 9: of these you know games that just knocks it out 258 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 9: of the park and we can accommodate it. But a 259 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 9: lot of these franchises, they don't always play there. So 260 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 9: when they move to these stadiums and they're able to 261 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 9: get close to sell it's which that must have been 262 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 9: close to us sellout. I don't know the capacity at 263 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 9: mile High, but a lot of those NFL stadiums trend 264 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 9: between sixty and seventy. 265 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 7: I believe Lumen's in that window. 266 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 9: So that's got to be pretty close to almost selling 267 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 9: out mile High, which is insane. 268 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 3: Love it. 269 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 9: But going back to you know, this being the third 270 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 9: iteration of a league, which I'm thankful we you know 271 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 9: I bring that up, and I feel like I'm educating 272 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 9: people now. I'm not bringing that up as in, you know, 273 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 9: we have to look back at at the failures. But 274 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 9: at that point we really kind of put one foot 275 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 9: in the is this you know where we're going to 276 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 9: play the Hey, invest in this, it's the right thing 277 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 9: to do camp, and then one foot in the it's 278 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 9: going to be a business, though, so invest in it 279 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 9: because it's a business. 280 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 7: And I don't think we're at a point where we're. 281 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 9: Doing that anymore. You don't have to convince people anymore. 282 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 9: You don't have to say, hey, you know, here's here's 283 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 9: tickets come to a game, or you know, people are 284 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 9: going to come. People are going to show up, people 285 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 9: are invested, people want to come back. And I really 286 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 9: think that it's been any league that you start. I 287 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 9: don't think it starts. It doesn't start with people getting 288 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 9: paid what maybe they should. It doesn't start with people 289 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 9: being full time. Often they have other jobs. But what 290 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 9: we're seeing here with nwsl IS is a change. It's 291 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 9: a shift, and it's both with the valuations of these franchises, 292 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 9: and it's also with attendance. And you're seeing it also 293 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 9: with the WNBA with their new CBA absolutely rival what's 294 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 9: happening there. So this isn't even just soccer anymore. Women's 295 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 9: sports are emerging and having not just a moment, but 296 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 9: there's a little bit of a changing of thinking and 297 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 9: guard here where now it's we're going to invest This 298 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 9: is just a business and that's it, and it's it's 299 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 9: really rewarding. I think for anybody you know that played 300 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 9: in the first leagues that really you know, played for 301 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 9: almost nothing to see that like, hey, everything that we 302 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 9: invested in and you know, we sacrificed a bit for 303 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 9: Look at what is happening. Look at how this is 304 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 9: turning over. Look at what these current players are doing, 305 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 9: and they're getting the attention that they deserve for their 306 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 9: achievements and what they're able to put on the field. 307 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 9: And the product's amazing. The players are great. You have 308 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 9: players that whether you want to follow a franchise or 309 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 9: you want to follow whoever your favorite player is, the 310 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 9: players are super engaging. I mean you get to meet them, 311 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 9: you get to see you get to almost there's like 312 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 9: such an intimate interaction that you don't get necessarily always 313 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 9: I think with other leagues, and I think that that's 314 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 9: coming to fruition now and not slowing down. We had 315 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 9: two expansion teams this year. I have no doubt there's 316 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 9: going to be more soon. So I mean, hats off 317 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 9: to the players, the coaching staffs, everybody who's involved in 318 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 9: this league, commissioner, let's keep moving in this direction. It's 319 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 9: it's so rewarding for somebody who now is older and 320 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,719 Speaker 9: was very involved in the game from playing to coaching, 321 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 9: to get to see what's happening. 322 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 7: It's it couldn't be more exciting. 323 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: Well, and I think that that's a very important way 324 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: to put a cherry on top of this great discussion. 325 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: I mean, Laura, you are one of the architects of 326 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: where women's professional women's soccer in the United States is now. 327 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: So you know, what you and your peers have done 328 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 1: before is why we are where we are with the NWSL. 329 00:17:58,760 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 7: So thank you for that. 330 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 9: Thank you.
