Soccer needs a “shot clock”. I can’t stand soccer I would rather watch bread mold.
How many did the Swedes have?
And Al Gore won the popular vote, what’s your point?
The Swedes only had 6 shots....
what’s your point?
You know very well what my point is without having to bring Al Gore into the conversation. WTF is up with that dude????
Using Al Gore is the worst attempt to substantiate a failed argument that I have ever witnessed in my life.............
Did Sweden break any rules?
They won fair and square.
Solo’s comments were disgraceful.
NOPE!
Did Sweden play to win?
NOPE, they played to tie........
If a boring sport allows a team to play hoping for a tie, what does that do for the sport? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
And that's why soccer sucks, and why Hope Solo's comments were spot on.........
So suck it up big boy........
You can't play to die in a Quarterfinal match. They played to win, and they did. Did it look pretty, no? You want a sport that awards points for style, try figure skating.
Ugggh,
That’s
“You can’t play to tie in a Quarterfinal match”
How are Solo’s domestic violence charges going?
5.56mm
The Royals are having an off year. Under .500, 10 games back in the AL Central and 6.5 back in the wild card.
You missed the point again didn't you Einstein? (Actually you didn't, you know exactly what I said and can't legitimately defend that type of boring soccer) Ice the puck (hockey term) to keep it out of your zone without having to rely on a shaky offense in the hopes of a 0-0 tie at the end in order to rely on a shoot out after time expired.........
That's not soccer, that's boring chickenball...
She may be an arrogant witch, but you don’t need to compare her to Al Gore, Jr. :-)
Too bad. They were so much fun to watch. Rangers are another team I favor, but will probably turn up one pitcher short or injury too many to go all the way.
Don’t say that, since the Rangers are my team. Number 1 in the AL for a whole now! Pitching should be fine in the post with Hamels, Darvish, and Colby.
There are many flaws with the rules of soccer, and this is one of them; however, those are the rules. I don’t like when one team “parks the bus”, but they do it for a reason.
She is a sore loser and an embarrassment; you can’t justify her comments.
