USA WNT got stomped 3-0 to Sweden

[Villian07]

I’m whatever with the team and how they do, honestly. Their recent remarks and lawsuit left a bad taste in my mouth, but I don’t actively cheer against them or anything. Now I just don’t care.

One thing I will say though is that sometimes losing / getting embarrassed is the best thing. Look at Italy’s soccer team right now. They missed qualifying for the last World Cup for the first time in 60 years, which gave them a chance to completely tear it down and rebuild better. They changed their formation, style, and went fairly young for the future (minus a few aging defenders), and 3 years later won the Eurocup. I’ve been a fan my entire life and it was super weird to not see them have 5 defenders back at all times. I think if they had gotten in they probably would have done just well enough to keep the status quo.

Ultimately the woman’s national team will do fine. Probably win gold or silver, and this loss won’t mean anything. But if they don’t, and I don’t have to hear about them for a while because of it, I’ll be okay with that too.

I have zero problems with the womens teams lawsuits. They do deserve as much as the men imo, they usually dominate the sport, where as the men dont really even have a single monumental win in history that i can think of. Donovans goal in the wc to beat iran??? Was exciting but hardly a “big time” win. Have we ever won a knockout game at the worldcup.

I will say we are at a disadvantage in that the north american gold cup is garbage so olympics and WC are the only chance to notch big wins. Id say our biggest win in history is probly over mexico in a gold cup but im not positive weve ever won the gold cup tbh tho surely we have bc it usually always comes down to us and mexico and they are hardly a soccer powerhouse either.

You do realize that the women were the ones that agreed to be paid the way the are, correct?

Over the last 5 years the players did make more money. They just didn’t make as much money as they would have made if they had taken the original deal, which they rejected. That’s why the lawsuit happened. It was over oppression that they in fact were the cause of under the guise of sexism. So yes, I have a problem with that.

Yes, exactly.

No. I dont follow womens anything much at all. Louisvilles womens basketball team ill watch a big game every once in a while.

I thought they were just pushing for equal pay as the mens team, which i dont consider unfair bc they are arguably have just as big of a fan base, and unquestionably are more successful.

But yea i was uninformed that they chose the current pay scale, but still not much diff than nfl guys holding out while under contract bc they want more. Which i can understand if that runs you the wrong way as well.

But yea im super uninformed on the topic, which def cobtributes to why i said i personally dont have much of a problem with the lawsuit, but its not a hill i want to die on bc i dont much care as long as alex morgan keeps looking sexy Im satisfied.

Oh damn, when put into that context, changes my perspective. Like i said my opinion was very much uninformed on the topic.

Like i said, i kinda viewed it like their version of a hold out bc not like you can hold out on things thag happen once every 4 years like the olympics and WC and not much else, for the national team anyways.

But again, i had no idea they rejected a better deal than they took or anything about anything $$$ wise except i simply thought they were seeking equal pay as the men, and given their success thought they deserved that.

But when you shine light upon those facts about it, it def changes my opinion. Esp since pride in our country shouldnt be measured in $$$$ anyways. Never really felt sorry for them regardless bc of that. Im sure plenty of girls could lose 3-0 that would do it for free.

 

[coryfly]

Here you are sticking up for an individual/individuals that think the things they represent as US athletes is somehow wrong or racist or unfair. She should not be on the team and I hope she sucks every game. But for those proud to be Americans I root for them and the team. Just not the individuals.

I never stood up for Rapinoe. I said celebrating the United States losing seems silly to me.

I also said not eating somewhere because of the decision others make is silly. I assume you own zero Nike and Samsung stuff as well though. Also hopefully you don't have a Hulu subscription. I don't so I could say I'm also boycotting because of her. Yeah me! Are you guys all proud of how strong I am?

 

[Villian07]

No hulu or samsung for me!

Take that rapinoe!!!

No worries. I don’t blame you for being uninformed on the topic. The media coverage of it was very slanted.

The funniest thing about it is if the men and women had switched deals, they both would have made more money than their current deals. The woman would have made more because the upside is higher under the men’s. The men would have made more because the woman’s deal has more stability.

Typical Cory

So you think a dyke lesbo is controlling my life huh? Please dont give up your day job because this amateur psychology thing isnt working out for you.

You can hate on Rapinoe for her political stances but thrashing her for being lesbian uncovers what a piece of trash homophobe you are.

I'm embarrassed that you're also a Duke fan.

 

[bignish]

It is what it is. I’d prefer Americans go undefeated at the olympics but if any lose I’d prefer it to be the whiny SJW libs and find it funny.

Why are you assuming that all SJW libs you hate care about the Women's Soccer team and would be devastated if they lose? There are some that are just indifferent just like there are on the Pubs side.

Supposedly patriotic Conservatives who supposedly love America cheering for a national team to lose might the dumbest irony out there.

I can hate, which I dont, I dont care about her that much, on someone for whatever reason I like. Free country. And I really dont care that you are embarrassed. I guess I can say I am embarrassed that you have no balls to speak your mind on an anonymous message board as well.

See, two can play your stupid fng game.

 

[Villian07]

Id say he spoke his mind quite well in calling you a pos homophobe for even bringing up her sexual orientation, which you obviously have problems with hence the unnecessary use of a homophobic slur right before typing “lesbo” anyways.

It is a free country though.

Have you seen my posts? I make ballsy predictions about college basketball teams all the time and take unpopular stances all the time.

I'm not a poster who chooses to hide behind a keyboard and spread hate and homophobia on an anonymous internet message board though.

The SJW libs I’m referring to are the ones on the soccer team. And where did I say I cheer against them? If the win, sweet. That’s what I’d prefer. If they lose, also sweet to watch those whiny babies fail.

You dont like my opinion. Tough. I dont hide my feelings about folks who speak like she does about this country that has given her everything in life in order for her to succeed. I think people like her should escorted out of the country and definitely not put on an Olympic team.

But i guess that is what you get when you put liberals in charge.

Atleast you’re self aware of your shitposting. I was starting to think you weren’t.

While I do think Megan is a race baiting biatch who isn't informed well, I think the dyke card is certainly taking it too far.

Not even t!tt!es?

I haven’t eaten at subway since the Magen Rapino stuff either.

Of course I haven’t eat at subway since graduating college 15 years ago, so…

I havent ate there since they got rid if the honey oat bread that was sooooo fire.

 

[JimboBBN]

Subway has its days. I eat there maybe once every three or four months. I just enjoy subs. Jimmy Johns and Jersey Mikes are both better. Penn Station I guess is alright.

 

[Villian07]

Heard that on jimmy johns and jersey mikes.

 

[GE Nole]

Yeah Jersey Mike’s is like 6 steps up from subway. Love them.

 

[Ipartiedwithhopgood]

I like the bread Jimmy John's puts out there.

 

[coryfly]

Subway is very below average. There is one close so to us here in the country though so if we have a HS ballgame or something and need something quick we will get it now and then. If I'm going to be in town and we want subs I'm picking up JM's though.

The bread from a Subway sub always looks like it got put into a bottom of a bag that somebody sat on.

 

[elmark1]

Have you been in the US for the last 5 years when Trump was President. Have you seen how people act. Dont recall you or cory(no balls) chiming on that.

I have standards and if a company wants to have someone represent them who hates this country and think this country doesnt offer them opportunities, either move or stfu. But I will not eat at your establishment.

Besides, it is Subway, geez.

Ahmen!

 

[Afamu]

Only one medal, and I always root for the US, but karma is a bitch Rapinoe.

Oof bad day for the equal pay contingent. Men’s team without its normal starters beats arch rival Mexico to win the Gold Cup and the women lose to the Snow Mexicans in the semifinals.

I feel bad for the players that actually focused on the game and played for their country.

You could learn a thing or two from them on that

You mean the AA players that stood and put their hands over their hearts while the purple haired bitch knelt.

There has been a lot more to it than standing or kneeling. So, yeah.
