[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think she’s extremely self-absorbed and clueless. I feel for her wife - Abby seems to have low self esteem and lets Glennon sh!T all over her. [/quote]

On that podcast, Abby came off as being in enabler mode.The whole podcast episode was disturbing. It was a good podcast when it started years ago. Time to shut it down and get G some serious help.[/quote]

There have been many such podcast episodes, some worse than others.

The other thing that really gets me is this - Abby's soccer career - her experiences, insights, reflections, opinions, etc, are frequently devalued by Glennon, who has, to absolutely NO ONE's surprise, made it ALL about Glennon and her stupid "the soccer" commentary. Glennon even - for some inexplicable reason - appeared alongside Abby on Tobin and Christen's RE/cap podcast recently because Glennon cannot just let Abby go share her unique and well-earned insights ABOUT SOCCER without hovering nearby and basking in Abby's fame & success. Control, devaluation, manipulation, fits of rage, sabatoging big moments, making it all about Glennon, etc. It is classic narcissism and yet no one seems to see it for what it is. [/quote]

DP. I’ve only listed to a handful of podcast episodes, but I find Abby’s thoughts about soccer to be the only interesting, completely genuine tidbits. And I don’t even like soccer.[/quote]

I found it really interesting that Abby and Glennon only released a quick IG story a few days after Alex Morgan's retirement game linking to their podcast episode with her. Same link, same day.

Considering the depth of the friendship and relationship between Abby and Alex from their UWSNT years together, this struck me as so strange, and at the same time, such a prime and unsurprising example of the control Glennon exerts over Abby. So many other active and retired UWSNT players posted touching tributes, talked about AM on their podcasts, etc and all Abby has posted is a quick link that directs people to rewatch the WCDHT podcast episode with AM!!!!![/quote]
