Sam Mewis won't play in the World Cup because of a knee injury, but she'll still be involved as part of the 'Men in Blazers' 2023 tournament coverage.
coverage. Mewis will do a daily podcast during the tournament with Roger Bennett, co-founder of Men in Blazers, and co-host the “Live and Dangerous!” Twitch streams, providing commentary and chatting with fans and celebrity guests, including Steve Nash and Lilly Singh, during games.“I'm so honored that Men in Blazers wanted to work with me,” Mewis told USA TODAY Sports ahead of Wednesday’s announcement.
The World Cup begins July 20 in Australia and New Zealand, and the USWNT plays its first game, against Vietnam, July 22. She still wanted to be involved, especially with older sister Kristie playing in her first World Cup, but Mewis needed something that wouldn’t interfere with her rehab. The MIB opportunity is perfect because it gives her the flexibility to stay in Boston, where her PT clinic is located, along with her longtime strength and conditioning coach.
“I'm hoping that I can feel like I can just be myself and bring what I know about the game to the podcast, to the Twitch streams. I think that that live commentary piece is going to be new for me,” she added. “So I'm eager to learn, and I think this is such a perfect opportunity to kind of jump in with both feet.”That passion for the game Mewis referred to comes from shared experiences that exists all over the world.
