Introducing A Tectonic Shift in the American Sports Landscape with Tori Huster and Meghann Burke from Good Game with Sarah Spain.

Follow the show: Good Game with Sarah Spain

The NWSL is the first American pro sports league to eliminate the draft and we talk to the people who made it happen. NWSL Players Association president Tori Huster and executive director Meghann Burke join Sarah to talk about the landmark collective bargaining agreement and the “free agency” frenzy that will get underway next week. Plus, the tears flow over jersey retirements (Megan Rapinoe and Maya Moore-Irons in the same weekend?! Why?!) and a lesson on Hall of Fame induction.
