An Imaginary Chat Between Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe
Alex Morgan: Hey Pinoe! What’s up? It feels like forever since we had a chill convo outside the field.
Megan Rapinoe: I know, right! We’ve been so caught up with training and matches. How’s that goal-scoring machine doing?
Alex Morgan: Oh, you know, keeping it well-oiled and ready to fire! But seriously, balancing training and mom life has been a wild ride. How about you? Working on any new projects or just perfecting that iconic pink hair?
Megan Rapinoe: Haha, the pink hair is always a work in progress. But yeah, I’ve been diving into some advocacy work and launching new campaigns. It’s been super fulfilling.
Alex Morgan: That’s awesome! Speaking of advocacy, have you seen those new grassroots soccer programs popping up? They’re giving so many young girls a shot at playing professionally.
Megan Rapinoe: Absolutely! It’s so heartening to see. We didn’t have all these resources growing up. Imagine if we did – we’d have been even more legendary, if that’s possible!
Alex Morgan: Totally! And it’s great to see the sport growing so much in the US. The NWSL has been crushing it too. What’s been your highlight so far this season?
Megan Rapinoe: Honestly, it’s got to be the solidarity and team spirit. We’ve had some defining moments on the field, but the off-field camaraderie is what keeps me going. And seeing Sophia Smith and the younger players stepping up? Pure joy!
Alex Morgan: Love it! They bring such fresh energy. And speaking of energy, what’s your go-to pre-game hype song these days?
Megan Rapinoe: Oh, that’s easy. “Lose Yourself” by Eminem. Never fails to get me pumped. What about you?
Alex Morgan: Classic choice! For me, it’s been “Run the World (Girls)” by Beyoncé. Gets me in the zone every single time.
Megan Rapinoe: Yass! Bey always delivers. By the way, any travel plans with the fam after the season ends?
Alex Morgan: Thinking of a chill beach vacation. Maybe Hawaii. It’s been a while since we just relaxed by the water. You?
Megan Rapinoe: That sounds amazing! I might head to Europe. Thinking a little bit of Italy, maybe Spain. Good food, good wine, you know how it is.
Alex Morgan: Sounds perfect! Well, let’s make sure we finish this season strong and then toast to our adventures. To crushing it on and off the field!
Megan Rapinoe: Cheers to that, Alex!
