The head of diversity at FIFA has warned the soccer organization’s broadcasting partners to stop zooming in on “hot women” in the crowd at World Cup matches.

Speaking before yesterday’s match between Croatia and England about FIFA’s anti-discrimination program in Russia, diversity boss Federico Addiechi said eliminating those type of shots is part of the “natural evolution” of broadcasts.

She was an absolute stunner. She was also certifiably insanely jealous. She got rather furry pretty fast “down there”...

A player is not off sides IF the pass is made or started before the player gets beyond the last defender between the goal and him. Is that correct?

Not quite. There must be two defensive players that are even with or closer to the byline when the ball is played. This applies to all parts of the body. Most people don't factor in the goalkeeper when it comes to an offsides situation. The GK is almost always one of the two defensive players, but not always.

“Let’s pretend like we scored a goal!!!”

[WASCWatch]

Got it.

I’ve know a few women who were stunners who happened to have been married several times. Very beautiful women often have low self-esteem because they think people are attracted to them just because of their looks.

Don’t care how beautiful a woman is, a man will put up with her shit for only so long.

Now it’s time to play, “Spot the Lesbians”.

A lot easier to do on a female basketball team than on a female soccer.

I love the “He’s Eating Pie!” one.

BINGO!

I'll tell you where it is, every summer they have exhibition games in the US with the big European teams, and they always sell out the games

So what happened with the North American Soccer League that went belly up back in 1984?

How about its successor, the APSL that only lasted from 1990 to 1995?

So where exactly are these exhibition games being held here in the U.S. Gator? There certainly haven't been any here in the vicinity of Michigan.

And just who exactly are filling these so called stadiums Gator? WASPS or immigrants both legal and illegal?

Here's a photo taken from Keyworth Stadium in Hamtramck, MI last year which hosted Detroit's semi-pro soccer team, the Northern Guard. See any American flags in the stands?

By the way, the stadium only holds 7,000 people so I guess that would qualify your statement that the "stadiums are packed"...........LOL!

[Chode]

so it would be OK then if they showed a few fat ugly ones now and again?

I’ve been to a few Seattle Sounders soccer games. Avg. attendance is ~40,000 a game. I didn’t notice a huge population of foreigners - or foreign flags for that matter. And I think they don’t allow those annoying horns into the stadium.

I’ve been to a few Seattle Mariners games, 2018 has been a winning year, and I see that average attendance is 27,000. But the baseball stadium can handle 47,000 people.

I’ve never been to a Seahawks game - too expensive. They play on the same field the Sounders do, and their average for last year was ~60,000 a game.

We used to have an indoor - “Box” Lacrosse professional team up in Everett - just north of Seattle. Much faster pace than field lacrosse - more like hockey. But with more scoring. 16 to 20 goals was not uncommon for each team. Probably my favorite sport to watch. Hockey is a close second.

What is the inner rectangle called where the goal mouth is and the goal keeper there if a surge is happening?

[HonkyTonkMan]

Favorites: "Let's pretend we scored a goal!"

"We lose every week, we lose every week, you're nothing special, we lose every week!"

"We paid for your hats, we paid for your hats, waste of tax money, we paid for your hats!"

[WASCWatch]

It’s called the goal box. The purpose of the goal box is to limit the area from which a player can put the ball back into play after an opponent last touched the ball prior to it completely crossing the byline.

It serves no other purpose.

[MHGinTN]

Doesn’t the line outermost act as the penalty kick spot? And the Tie breaker shooting spot?

The US National Women's Soccer team played against a Dallas high-school freshman boys squad.

The under-15-year-old boys beat them 5-2
