Pretty much sums up my feelings. This whole counter-culture against the US women, and WUSA for that matter, is a little weird, but not unexpected.
Foudy came off her mark to cover a player Wambach let run free. She had a pretty lame match overall versus Germany and should have been substituted for some fresh legs. She was right about Hamm from a purely media standpoint. Ask any football/basketball/baseball junky you know and the only soccer players they can name are Pele, Hamm, maybe Beckham or "that chick who took her shirt off". Sadly, they are more likely to know who Foudy is than Claudio Reyna.
This is not necesarily directed at Foudy, but I do find it humorous the inferences made (mostly by the media) that the US women were better than the men because they had better results in their respective world cup. Now after each of our respective meetings against Germany, that is no longer the case. Not that it means anything, I just it was a funny case of irony.
No, I just think you are a traitor. And frankly, too many of the WNT bashers come across as the guy who is getting back at women because not even the ugly girl would kiss him when playing spin the bottle in first grade. (And yes, I cannot spell and my Italian is bad, so I will save you the trouble)
Metro, surely you jest! Isn't Donovan getting crucified by some of you Metro fans (and others) for his post-game quotes regarding Walker and Guevara? We can't have our cake and eat it too!
Yeah well Metro fans are all little girls anyway. They whine and cry ove ranything, and have extremely thin skins. Nobody with the IQ of a pile of fresh dogshit takes any of them seriously. Donovan told the truth. Walker flopped like a freshly boated seabass. Etcheverry took an even bigger flop against the Crew on Saturday and it cost them a win and maybe locked them out of the playoffs. I'm not real crazy about it, but it's what the game has come to. Boo freakin hoo. If Julie Foudy pimping for Women's soccer offends your delicate sensibilities, maybe you'd better go play in the sandbox with the rest of the soggy-diaper crowd. It's obvious what she's trying to do, no one with genuine factory-issue manparts is threatened by it, and it's not anything like the big deal some of you candyass pantywaists want to make it out to be. As for your cake, cram it up your ass and then light the candles..
No. But at least I am a guy who does not get bent out of shape because a ten year old girl is wearing a tee shirt that say "World Cups Won Women 2 Men 0", because a sports writer thinks he is clever by asking Bruce Arena if Mia Hamm should play for the men's national team, or because Julie Foudy makes a silly comment about her friend and teammate. Oh yea, and I do not feel the need to go onto wusaid.com and link to your stupid and innane posts here. How old are you anyway? 10, 12?
Yeah, and after you say something like this over and over again, they start saying that you are a caveman, machista, etc, and all that feminist baloney. I felt bad for Chastain and MIa, they are really something, but for Loudy, whose anti-male stupid radical femenism in the end buried and sank the whole thing (even though people don't want to acknowledge this), scare investors away, and made the media to find her conflictive and annoying, i have nothing else that a big freaking hiena laugh, i mean a really huges one. She was the worst spokeperson not just for the league but for the entire sport as well (hint: the CNN interview during the WC 2002) so for all those Loudy-Hillary Clintons wannabes: drop the aptitude, and smart up, that behavior won't take you anywhere.
Fair warning, the USMNT forum is not, by default, the anti-USWNT forum. If you want to gloat or generally toss 3rd grade insults at each other, please do so elsewhere. Thread closed.
