Women's World Cup

[Chizzang]

Why would you not be excited to score during the World Cup?

It is poor sportsmanship to behave in that manner.

After you’re up 4-5 goals and you haven’t taken your foot off the gas ... good sports don’t behave that way.

That’s how Donald Trump personified in a sports team would behave.

If you don’t see it then maybe you just come from a different culture than I do.

Where are you from, France..?

Let me help you out here in America
The Falcons were up 28-3 with 2 minutes left in the 3rd quarter
and they lost

Statistically speaking at that point they had a 99.4 % chance of winning the game

When you field a team for a sporting competition
you compete until the final whistle blows (period)
Afterwards you let the apologists and pansies sort out who should be offended
and how we should all feel

The first tiebreaker in soccer is goal differential. That forces teams to score as many goals as possible in group play.

Well, technically speaking, the first tie-breaker is total points (3 for win, 1 for a draw, none for a tie). Win all your games 1-0 and you don't have to worry a thing about scoring more.

This is as good a place to post this thought at any.

So the US women's soccer team is upset about not being paid as much as the US men's soccer team.

How about we settle the matter. Let's have a 2 of 3 series between the US women's soccer team and the US men's soccer team. If the US women's soccer team wins the series, we make sure they get paid at least as much as the men. If they don't, we quit pretending that there is some kind of equivalence and tell the US women's soccer team to STFU.

The women are way more successful than the men. They win us World Cup championships and Olympic gold medals. The men can't even qualify for the World Cup.

The point is that it is a lower level of competition. The very fact that we separate men's and women's athletics means we concede that men and women are not equal when it comes to athletics. If we really wanted equal opportunity in athletics we wouldn't be having a separate space for women to compete without having to compete with men.

It's like saying the members of a minor league baseball team should be paid as much as members of a major league baseball team because they win more games in the minor leagues than the major league team wins in the major leagues.

You say the men can't even qualify for the World Cup. What do you think would happen if you took the US Men's soccer team and let them play for a World Cup and Olympic medals against the competition the Women's team plays against? In other words, let them play all the Women's teams.

Hint: They'd dominate. They would probably never lose a game.

Also, they would absolutely destroy the US Women's team in a head to head game. We all know that.

The US Women's team is a very good team in the context of a much lower level of competition.

I’m not saying they shouldn’t compete... you’re being a bit comprehension challenged here -

I’m saying they should have toned down the over the top celebrations on every goal

Your opinion obviously differs

I've tuned in to a few games, VAR is completely ruining this sport. Can't wait to see it run roughshod in the men's WC next year.

The men's WC isn't next year. VAR was used in the previous men's WC with much greater success than it has been used at the WWC.

That isn't a tie-breaker.

Yes Bubba. Now please tell us about how colored folk aren't very bright and Jews are really the devil's children.

Wait... I though the colored folks were the Devils Children
At least that is the early book of Mormon interpretation
(quite literally)

I do agree that Rapinoe's celebration after, I believe, the 9th goal was a bit much considering the circumstances. But otherwise I had no problems.

You know our women's team frequently scrimmages against high school boys teams and U-15 boys teams. The women get their asses kicked. Their final scrimmage before the WWC four years ago was against a high school boys team in SoCal. The boys won 9-0. Just a couple of months ago they scrimmaged against the FC Dallas U-15 team and lost 7-1. They can't compete against boys who are barely into puberty.

It wouldn’t even be close. On sprint times alone the men would leave the women behind.

TBH- I kind of would like to see that game though -

Mangez de la merde, France!

So Rapinoe has accepted AOC’s invitation to DC. I guess she thinks she can lick all of America’s problems.

[Ivytalk]

I have a hunch, based on absolutely nothing but my gut, that the UK will beat the US tomorrow. And it will serve them right. The only likeable woman on this US team is Alex Morgan.

I hope so.

Our team is thoroughly unlikeable. Stereotypically American

I'm not a huge fan of our men, because they don't win. They are the real embarrassment.
