Here's a preview of the story:

Ali Krieger, a soccer star known for her impressive defensive skills and leadership on and off the field, announced on "CBS Mornings" Thursday that she is retiring from professional soccer.

"This is the right time for me," she said. "I've given so much to the game, and I've gotten a lot in return. But I feel it. My body also feels it."

Krieger has been an integral part of U.S. women's soccer for more than a decade, making more than 100 appearances with the U.S. Women's National Team. She currently plays for Gotham FC, a member of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) — and plans to retire at the end of the league's season.

In her final season, she has a last chance to win a title that has eluded her.

"I see the 2023 season as an opportunity to celebrate with our fans and my fellow players, but make no mistake - my entire focus is on winning the NWSL championship with Gotham FC," Krieger said in a news release.

CBS News posting their articles in relevant subreddits is honestly genius marketing

I don’t understand why you guys are downvoting this, CBS posted their own article and summarized it on Reddit. I for one like this idea

Absolutely. They're just adapting to the changing landscape of how younger audiences ingest their news/media. They're doing it transparently, too (username is CBSnews), instead of shilling like most other companies, which is cool.

And how many Olympics have you been an athlete in? How many world championships have you won? If you don’t have something nice to say then don’t speak at all.
