    USMNT 2023

    Yes… I recall some Napoleon guy posting far and wide a couple of years ago that the best like-for-like replacement for Christian Pulisic that the USMNT had was a Dutch kid named Sergiño Dest. And that motha fuckin’ emperor was right!

    I always thought that the contracts were guaranteed. Does this mean that anyone can pick him up and Barça doesn’t need to pay him anything? Or Barça pays the difference?

    USMNT 2023

    “Looks like the University of [MLS]!”
  4. 1) It’s not unfair. 2) Someone pointed out above that Morgan was doing a nice job of setting up teammates. 3) I think that Barbados 🇧🇧 and French Polynesia 🇵🇫 are the level of teams that Morgan could actually score against these days. The finishing in the women’s game sucks ass compared to the men’s game. That much is obvious. After seeing Brazil 🇧🇷 score a team goal against Panama 🇵🇦 that was worthy of the Harlem Globetrotters vs the Washington Generals in their opening match, they could score against Jamaica 🇯🇲 when it looked like Jamaica was playing a girl down the full 90 minutes. Morgan isn’t the only attacking player who can’t finish for shit, but her best comp on the USMNT is probably Ferreira.
  5. QUESTION: Is Alex Morgan really just the Jesus Ferreira of the USWNT?
  6. Jamaica scored 1 goal in the knock stage. That’s half as many as the USMNT did in Qatar, but these Americans (including one born in Hong Kong and one still in high school in Georgia), Brits, and Jamaicans managed to advance after being outplayed for about 95+ minutes (combining both halves’ stoppage time).
  7. A bunch of American & English girls, plus a few Jamaican girls and one born in Hong Kong fighting for a little island in the Caribbean with swinger nudist resorts, lots of weed & shrooms, and well hung gentlemen that tag American women on girls’ vacations. Man, Jamaica 🇯🇲 was shitty, but they busted their asses playing klutzy defense against a very fast & skilled Brazilian team that couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn. FIFA has to be shitting bricks over losing Italy & Brazil in back to back time slots. Goodbye eyes around the world. Goodbye ad dollars. FIGA must be shitting themselves over how poorly this tournament has turned out so far.
  8. Italy pressing to get a tying goal in the l111+ minutes, a South African player goes down and needs to be stretchered off because… …a ball hit her thigh… 👀 …okay. South Africa advances to the next round. Italy goes home. Those TVs you hear turning off (or never turning on) all up and down the east coast, Chicago, and San Francisco as the game that the USA was supposed to play in is now the Netherlands 🇳🇱 vs South Africa 🇿🇦. Advertisers are committing hari-kari as we speak.
  9. Argie chica probably just tore and ACL. Went down without contact, tons of tears, being subbed out in the 40’ after going down 35’ or so. Stretcher… she’ll likely be out 12 months.
  10. I’m watching my Argentina chicas and they are a bunch of diving drama queens. But I don’t blame them because even though Sweden is playing a B squad, they are still outmatched.

    USMNT 2023

    That’s like €9M for each assist he dishes out and €14M for each goal that he’s expected to score this year.

    MLS 2023

    $20M to $30M I can’t say exactly because I don’t know what they bought him for and I don’t know how they determine a players value to the team, but he scores goals. Players who score goals are worth more. Period. Plus, he’s Argentine, which is like what a Brazilian was 15-25 years ago. You pay more for the flag. $&&🇦🇷 $$$🇧🇷
  13. No one has ever liked this coach. People can’t be too critical of anything that US Soccer does (TV talking heads or podcasters), because they can be frozen out for expressing an opinion. But as much as this team has looked like confused elderly ladies, the talking heads couldn’t hold back their criticism. I think that they all know that the TVs will likely turn after across the country after the next match and the US women’s future going forward looks cloudy.
  14. Not even close. This team is pure shit. The men give good effort. Both team have shit-for-brains managers. Alex Morgan is awful. If Carli Lloyd hadn’t been told she was done as a USWNT player and had kept playing, I think that even as old as she is, she would have been more clinical than Morgan. Morgan looked more uncoordinated than fat Serena Williams. We most certainly are. I said this last weekend. Colombia and Germany would destroy these yankee bitches. I enjoyed watching the Dutch score over and over, but flipped back to watch the Portugal 🇵🇹 ladies some and then was really pulling for them and watched them mostly the last 20 minutes. Really bummed that they didn’t pull out a win to advance in their World Cup debut. I hope that Sweden crushes our old fat ladies on Sunday. PS- How much does the U.S. keeper suck ass? That flailing regarded leap she made on that set piece was comical. I realized that I had seen that spastic movement about 20-25 years ago… …the one on the left.
  15. Record it. Wake up and check the score. If they won or tied, watch what you want. If they lose, try not to laugh so hard that you wake up the neighborhood. The team has been so shitty that I wouldn’t suggest that you wake up to watch them. They are not worth losing sleep over.
  16. Sark has always run the ball. Hopefully we run and pass a lot this year. Hopefully our WRs adjust 2-3 feet one direction or another over the course of a 40 yard route and actually catch the ball. Hopefully the QB can pass the ball within 2-3 feet of an open receiver on almost every pass play. A famous high school basketball coach once ended a pregame pep talk with: “If we score more points, we win!” That’s what I’m hoping happens this season.

    MLS 2023

    Well furk! He’s one of the solid #10s in the MLS. He helps raise the floor of the MLS. Well, Argentina is going to become even more of a feeder league, because the MLS will start raiding it even more if teams in the desert shit hole on top of oil reserves are going to come in and raid our players in addition to too Euro clubs. EDIT: Just checked and Zelarayán is 31 years old. So not quite as upset. I thought that he was 26.
  18. This! But then again, last year May have been his final year.

    La Liga 2022-2023

    I did not. Didn’t really know about it in advance. It looks like Madrid dominated and yet lost 0-3. What were upper level seats going for? Also, the grass looked pretty good. (It usually looks like shit.)
  20. We are physically inferior to both of these teams. We do have a couple o’ far girls that may be able to throw their weight around if the ref allows it. Our “ath-uh-lettuce-ism” will be embarrassingly exposed if we play with of these teams.
  21. Both of these teams would crush the current USWNT. Their speed, quick passing, ball control… …several levels above the American girls vs the Netherlands.
  22. “Shot through the heart, and ewe’re to blame (baby) Ewe give love, a bad name.”
