  Welcome back! Today, the girls share their thoughts and opinions on three popular topics that are currently circulating the sports arena: the Euro Cup 2016, the ongoing battle between Bill Simmons, and Jeremy Foley’s retirement. If you have been a die-hard fan of European football, otherwise known as soccer, then you are probably aware of the attacks that Abby Wambach has endured this week over her commentating skills at the game. She has been attacked on several social media platforms, including Twitter, for things we feel are a little harsh to judge. In today’s episode, we share our personal thoughts about these negative comments, and why we believe Abby’s first attempt at commenting was probably a more than a little nerve-wracking. Also in today’s episode, we talk about the ongoing battle between Bill Simmons and ESPN, the conspiracy theories revolving around that battle, and our opinions regarding the matter as well as the heartbreaking news of Jeremy Foley’s retirement from the Florida Gators.

GoS Ep001 Kicking Off Girls on the Sideline Welcome to the first episode of Girls on the Sideline – the sports podcast that offers a female perspective on all things sports with your hosts and long-time sports fans, Lindsay and Whitney! In this episode, we want to introduce ourselves to our wonderful listeners and explain what the Girls on the Sideline podcast is all about – from sharing our vision for the show to what you can expect from each episode each week. We strongly believe that the sports media landscape, although constantly growing and expanding, can use a little extra help reaching and connecting with their female fans. That said, this podcast will highlight the female perspective on various sports, spotlight women who have made a career on the field, showcase opportunities for sports-loving women, and highlight women who are living their sports dreams after hanging up their shoes and leaving the playing field. We’re not a “Girl Power” show, but we promise to provide a unique perspective to the spo
