    Forgetting you, but not the time"

  4. Christen Press in a CRS uniform was a joy to watch, but with Rory Dames Route 1 Express Lanes attack Sam Kerr will score more goals. She's Julie Ertz at the tip of the spear.

    It's rather bigoted for the league to ban trans-women from playing for them.
    Hypocritical to have any PRIDE-related events while telling the chicks with dicks that they aren't really women.
    Vagina people take a knee for all popular causes except one that might cause competition for jobs.

    Though I am begrudgingly admitting that Kerr is better for CRS...I miss Press. She still remains my favorite player for the last half dozen years.

    From today's Guardian:

    Christen Press: how did a World Cup winner end up at a club she didn't want to join?
    https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...-press-houston-dash-trade-womens-soccer-uswnt

    The situation seemed typical at first: the Houston Dash acquired her from the Chicago Red Stars in a trade involving Carli Lloyd, the sort of swap that happens all the time in American sports. But it quickly emerged something was amiss. She did not acknowledge the trade on social media and the Dash didn’t immediately make her the face of the club.

    As it turned out, Press had no interest in playing for Houston and she was willing to stand her ground, something the Dash only learned after the trade was executed in January. Instead, the 29-year-old continues the standoff by refusing to report to the Dash’s preseason camp in hopes of prompting a trade elsewhere.

    What if her rights somehow get "allocated" back to Chicago?

    Servando Carrsco got traded to LA, so I'm sure they're going to make a new LA team for AM.

    In better news, Orlando visits the Red Stars twice in May.

    I a, pretty sure that her relationship with Dames has been damaged beyond repair.

    You know, calling other players "Dames" is rather archaic and insulting. ;):thumbsdown:

    (this is not a serious post)

    Update: Kerr still hasn't scored yet.

    But Mautz is in the Golden Boot race.
