Title: One of the many dumb things about soccer… Post by: Black Diamond Vol on August 06, 2023, 04:47:12 EDT …is that they decide their champions on penalty kicks. That’s like Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth dueling to a draw through 72 holes at the Masters, then driving up to Gatlinburg to decide it with a round at Hillbilly Golf. :frown:
That said, I’m not at all sad that this particular Team USA lost. :biggrin: Title: Re: One of the many dumb things about soccer… Post by: BanditVol on August 06, 2023, 06:21:17 EDT You beat me to it. I didn't see the game, just caught the highlights just now.
Rapinoe sailed one over the goal during the shootout. She is 38. She will not play again. I can't say that breaks me up.... :naughty: Title: Re: One of the many dumb things about soccer… Post by: Tnphil on August 06, 2023, 08:04:54 EDT Very unlikeable team. Glad their asses are done.

She is from California! :biggrin: However, don't get too excited boys she is from Redding in Shasta County, which by California standards is pretty dang conservative. They probably don't like her there either. :patriot: Other than her name, I don't think I know any other names on the team. Oh well, there is your useless trivia for today.
