## Resource

Congratulations to the Dallas Pulse, MLV’s first ever first-year franchise to win a championship! Nikki and Kelly tell us about their time visiting Frisco for the semifinals and finals - everyone gives their rose and thorn from their respective viewing experiences (even Ian, who watched every minute on ION). We talk through each match and our reactions, as well as gossip heard throughout the venue over the weekend - we gotchu. Nikki also tells the crew what she’s hearing about free agency per her social media lurking (because they’re just not on it enough), and offers an Extremely Good proposal on what next year’s schedule should look like. Thank you for your consideration, MLV! Thanks for a great season, Captains! Thank you for your support! We’ll jump back in this summer when free agency announcements start up. Till then, don’t forget that thing we always say! Check out the Content, including video replays and highlights, on the Voli app!
