What’s with all this Fox promotion of women’s soccer?
Is Shemp Smith playing?
They paid for the right to broadcast it and they are trying to make money via advertising?
LOL — They broadcast the Women’s World Cup. Of course they’ll promote it.
Revenue?
Cuz they’re in the final game of the World Cup. And United States of Americans are supposed to suck at soccer and the Mexicans and South Americans and Europeans are supposed to be so much better than us dumb Americans but they’re not.
They have to promote it because nobody cares to watch it. In fact, nobody cares about ugly women threatening to boycott Trump’s nonexistent invitation to the White House if they win.
I most assuredly will not watch and hope the other team wins, whoever they are.
Veto!
(The Girl)
I feel your pain... I don't like to see it promoted either.
What am I doing on the dumbest thread, ever?
ROFL
I will be watching to root for the other team.

More people in America will be watching it than watch Fox News, CNN and MSNBC combined. Throw in ABC, CBS and NBC news and they still won't beat it, at least at this level. Once the World Cup ends their numbers drop down to CNN levels.
I’d watch if it was lingerie football, I don’t have time now. Giants/Cards play at 2pm pacific time and I’m sure there’s more MLB games and I can mow the yard or schedule a root canal. Sorry FAUX.
I wondered that too, LOL
Making money.
That’s what they do.

Rapinoe says it is important for white and black athletes to stand together
On Sunday, Rapinoe said her gesture was a nod towards Kaepernick.
“It was very intentional,” Rapinoe told American Soccer Now after the game.
“It was a little nod to Kaepernick and everything that he’s standing for right now.
I think it’s actually pretty disgusting the way he was treated and the way that a lot of the media has covered it and made it about something that it absolutely isn’t.

"Huey Percy Newton (February 17, 1942 – August 22, 1989) was an African-American political activist and revolutionary who, along with Bobby Seale, co-founded the Black Panther Party in 1966. He continued to pursue an education, eventually earning a Ph.D. in social philosophy.[1][2] In 1989 he was shot and killed in Oakland, California. ..."
"As a student at Merritt College in Oakland, Newton became involved in politics in the Bay Area. He joined the Afro-American Association (AAA), became a prominent member of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity, Beta Tau chapter; and played a role in getting the first African-American history course adopted as part of the college's curriculum.
He read the works of Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, Frantz Fanon, Malcolm X, Mao Zedong, Émile Durkheim, and Che Guevara.
During his time at Merritt College, he met Bobby Seale, and the two organized the Black Panther Party for Self Defense in October 1966.[3]"

From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES
"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey [Newton] rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo [the police].
Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.
The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."
To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."
