[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An American married to Johan Cruyff’s daughter who runs the prestigious TOVO academy in Barcelona. He predicted Spain ranked 20th eclipsing US women. US women have more registered female soccer players than the entire planet combined. California alone has more players than Spain...and it’s happened. As he said US women’s “fragile advantage in athleticism will wilt in the face of intelligence”. We still have people denying anything is wrong. With those shocking numbers—our absolute glut of female soccer players compared to the rest of the entire World—it’s a crying shame. [b]Same losers are running the women’s program and they have the numbers the men don’t have because they aren’t competing with Football, Baseball, Basketball. What is the women’s excuse?!?!?!!! [/b] Oh yea, let’s blame it on the parents. F@ck you Youth Soccer Federation. YOU are the problem, not parents. You built this myth and preyed on people unfamiliar with the sport. I always knew you were a piece of sh@t because I grew up in a soccer household trained by the Dutch. I don’t put my kids in the system. They also trained privately for a good portion of youth until now as teens as we turned our back on the shitty travel system. But, how is your average American supposed to know you are selling a bag of lies? I am writing my letter to the author of that article now. How dare you blame parents..and f@ck you too Hope Solo. You whiny loser, bad sport saying Sweden didn’t play pretty like you after your loss to them in the Olympics. Go beat down your nephew again.[/quote] Not sure how many nfl, mlb, nba players can be good at soccer though... :?: [/quote] We are talking about women in that passage. Can we PLEASE stop making excuses for our failure at soccer? God, we sound like a bunch of whiners.[/quote] More US women soccer players than the rest.of.the.world COMBINED! And we will continue sinking even though women talent base is ENORMOUS. Just stop with the excuses.... Admitting failure is part of growth. Make change.[/quote] I don't follow women's soccer closely, but aren't they the defending world cup champions? Seems a bit premature to go into panic mode. [/quote]
