Gold medals are for posers, bronze medals are for artists.

The USWNT won bronze this week, coronating Casey Krueger, Tierna Davidson, Alyssa Naeher and Julie Ertz as first time Olympic medalists. Southside Trap is here to talk through the bubbly vibes of the Olympic tournament, how far Red Stars'ing can get a team, and what to take away from the USWNT's time in Japan (spoiler: very little)

We also talk through Chicago's very good win against the Washington Spirit, discussing goals, celebrations, running, defense, the future, the most dangerous scoreline in soccer and how history kinda rhymes sometimes. Then we preview the Red Stars' first matchup against the Orlando Pride.
