Mia Hamm May Just Steal the Show at the Espys (but Who’s Counting?)
·by Kit Kallous
Tomorrow, the 2026 ESPYs are upon us, and it looks like the sports world is dusting off a certain soccer icon from the archives. Yep, the alleged GOAT herself, Mia Hamm, is back on the radar. In case you forgot, she was out there scoring goals and collecting trophies like she had a coupon for them. Two FIFA Women’s World Cups, two Olympic golds, and five ESPY Awards later, she's not just some flash in the pan. Fast forward to her fabulous mid-50s, and apparently, she’s still slaying the game, or so the whispers go. Mark your calendars for the ESPYs — if that’s your kind of thing, I guess. But let’s be real, who’s expecting a jaw-dropper here?
