[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to kind of like this forum, but no more. Too many negative posters that even when we win still post negative, clueless crap. Negative about US socccer, negative about DC metro soccer, negative about other’s kids, and negative about their own sad pathetic lives. [/quote]

I am the OP. This is a soccer forum. I posted my observations about the USWNT. I was hoping people would agree or disagree and we could discuss. Instead, I had people react as though I were a sexist monster, make ridiculous assumptions about my life, and decry me as a doom and gloomer.  I mean, I made simple observations! These absurdly over the top reactions are hypocritical and self incriminating. I have a stake in this game, and I hate the way it looks on the men's side and don't think the women's side looks good. It is as simple as that. Lol[/quote]

So many fans of women’s soccer are fans of the women who play soccer. It’s a oh look at what these women are doing. They are great role models, etc. Its more about feminism vs soccer. There is also a big following in the LGBT(more lesbian like the WNBA). So any criticism is seen as an attack. As soccer fans start paying attention they will ask questions about the coaching and players...that is what sports fans do. If you says Rapinoe is over the hill. They see it as you attacking a well known outspoken lesbian. For those who watch a lot of soccer, she fails the eye test.

The US style of play is outdated but will win if you have better players. Youth travel soccer does not select kids who can pass accurately and see the field well. The current team is a product of that system. Every once and a while you will get someone like Lavelle make it through. You saw what happened when Lavalle came out of the game. The English midfield took over. Now if Lavelle was in England, France, Germany, etc. she would be a much better player. Just playing around better technical players ups your game. [/quote]
