No, the above hastags are generally applied by the people defending #legfart

I highly doubt that. At least not with such obsession.

They don’t? So is this a female thing or just particular to a few specific people who happen to be women?

No, they don't. I do not watch enough blowouts in women's sports to know how many women on average celebrate with such little class, but my guess is this team is worse than average.

My post was in response to the PP who said this: "Never have I seen such outrage directed toward male athletes."

Go spend some time on youtube watching men's soccer. You'll realize that male soccer players do indeed celebrate goals. And that within the range of "celebrating goals" even Rapinoe - the celebration that is being criticized here and being used to insult and demean the entire team - isn't out of bounds.

That is the finals of that chosen sport. Do those players celebrate when they pummel say a bottom ranked Cleveland of hte past decade or a late 70's early 80's Saints or the 80's Buccaneers? No, because they know they are supposed to beat those teams.

Yesterday was not the World Cup finals and your comparing their celebrations to Super Bowl games demonstrates that you don't understand the difference.

So as a Marylander, can I call out all the teams that have crushed the Orioles this season for being unsportsmanlike? Everyone knows we're rebuilding. They could beat us by a couple of runs. Beating us by so many is trashy. Right?

It isn't about the score. It is celebrating single game, double digit goals as if you WON the World Cup.

Do you realize that winning the World Cup is a very rare thing? And that airplane arms, jump-hugging a teammate, dancing, running up to a teammate and congratulating her, all of those are perfectly normal, ordinary things in games that are much, much less important than a World Cup game? These are the final games before the World Cup. It's huge. It's a tremendously big deal. This is what these women have been working for their whole lives. Most World Cup players don't score goals. Most World Cup players don't make it into the final game. Scoring a goal in a game, even not in the final, is a huge accomplishment.

If you don't understand that, your criticism of these women is based on an ignorance that renders your opinion entirely meaningless.

Are you nuts?

You haven't watched soccer if you think the men don't celebrate. Even in unbalanced games.

Men don't celebrate like this in games as unbalanced as this

+1.

Now, I don't think this is about men vs. women.

It's about clueless, classless, entitled Americans.

They didnt play dirty
They didnt taunt
They didnt disrespect the referees
They didnt disrespect the other team

They celebrated their accomplishments and your mad.

That tells me all I need to know about you.

Not many here are "mad." We support our national team. I know I do. But I don't support the level of celebration after going up over eight goals as though each goal had just won the world cup.

No class. Not angry. Maybe a little disappointed. But a fact, nonetheless.

Hopefully doesn't come back to haunt us.
