Indians like cricket, Americans love baseball, Chinese enjoy compressing gypsum into tablets and selling them as medicine.
Come on....they didn’t really wear those jerseys.....Whose disgusting idea was that? What does soccer have to do with sexual preference? Come to think of it, I guess I know the embarrassing answer.
We have a soccer team?
Who knew?
Frankly, I follow the Polish team more, anyway. They are an exciting team to watch.
Even when the US is in the World Cup, they are tough to watch.
Soccer is for kids who can’t hit the ball!!
Americans don’t give a rats @$$ about soccer. The globalists in the public schools try to force it on kids and make them “citizens of the world”. F*** em. The kids grow up and want to play baseball football hockey and basketball. Soccer is more boring than cricket or curling.
To all FReepers:
Hate the NFL?
Love your country?
Then recognize...American sports glamorize a city, not a country.
Yeah...we love our Olympic athletes celebrating the flag....but...
I’ve witnessed PACKED bars during World Cup USA games. The USA men’s national soccer team is one of the few sports that unite us.
I will be saddened when we’re not in the finals competition. If you don’t like the sport then why sh*t on others that do. Don’t comment. Just leave it alone. I don’t get those that just want to cr*p on things others enjoy.

Considering Major League Soccer is second in revenues only to Brazil, among soccer leagues in the Americas, this is pretty pathetic.
I was at the World Cup qualifier (2004?) ... against Mexico ... it was one of the greatest spirit filled, we love America, events I ever went to. And I saved the Mexican’s life next to me when he shouted ‘O-Sa-Ma’; some college kids were gonna beat his butt - he got up and left - great memories, and we won 2-0.
On the bright side, no black power salutes and kneeling during the national anthem. Not many felons among former soccer players. Not diverse enough, I guess.
I will say, this may be exactly what we need. We keep kicking the can down the road, and nothing changes. Now, things are indeed going to change.
Unbelievable. Time for Sunil to go. We have p!ssed away millions of $ on T&D yet nothing to show for it. We tried to buy German model with JK. Then we went back in time with Bruce. US Soccer is going in reverse!
And I thought we’d hit the bottom with Sampson....
Oh, I was this was for Olympic bob sledding. My mistake.
...just wanted to understand your comment more. I agree on “subjects” we keep “kicking the can” on...but just want more context...
It seems as long as we made the WC and got out of the Group Stage, everybody was happy, and we never would do anything to try to improve the program....Well now the chickens have finally come home to roost.
Yep —where are the Jozy fans now? Guy didn’t deliver — never has. The apathetic team was going thru the motions tonight. They have no heart, Lamas rightly called them out weeks ago. Embarrassing showing - just a mess.
But when they get together, Trinidad and Tobago are unstoppable.
Watch and see if they don't beat us in cricket as well.
One more step on the path to world domination.
We probably could have taken Trinidad, it was that damn Tobago that did us in.
