When my son was going to Canadian U14 nationals they had a “friendly” against the university women’s team. Once those women realized the boys weren’t going to go easy on them, they ramped it up pretty serious. What was hilarious was the boys didn’t know where to put their hands. They looked like a bunch of amputees…

thats an awful co-ed indoor league. I played for my entire 20's with none of that BS. The only nod to gender difference was the high and hard rule, but it applied to both genders.

Spearing an opposing player: Two games.

Soccer refs will forever be worthless at offside calls. At all levels.

Did anyone else notice Michael Jordan was at the game? Not sure if CBS showed or mentioned him during the telecast or not.

As someone who supports the WNT fighting for equal pay, I don’t see how they will bring in more money than the MNT this year. Sure they have the Olympics, but it’s not as if they’ll be drawing huge crowds for the friendlies afterwards. MNT has been drawing more and has Qualifying + Copa America (at home) this year.…

Missed a 2? You’re thinking of Nick Young.

this is first time Mark Landsberger has ever been mentioned on the Internet.

HEY!! What is Gawker Media’s take on this post vis-a-vis the “Hogan Verdict”. Does Young have an expectation of privacy in his home/hotel which is 1) being violated by D’Angelo Russell, and 3) Gawker media and others are now violating by posting it online?

Good to see Franklin getting work again so many years after “Arrested Development."

So you’re saying we shouldn’t address uncomfortable but important facts because they make us uncomfortable? So let’s just hide our heads in the sand and pretend the origins of these men don’t matter, because if we ignore it it will go away, right? You do realise how stupid you sound, right?

Good luck getting Jezebel to ever address that. They initially wrote very little about it and when they do address the issue of where the assailants come from, it’s to say the right wing is using it to fuel xenophobia. Because apparently it's impossible to say anything about the fact that these men come from countries…

Suspicions of some mass cover-up were fanned by conservative outlets that referenced the well-worn racist narrative of dark-skinned men abusing white women.

For zero American dollars you can walk right up to a horse, any horse will do, and whisper, "I must become a muscle king." The horse will drop kick you to the Realm of the Sweaty Emperor, where you will do power squats until your legs are massive enough to affect the tides. Once you've lifted every weight in the Realm…

Really? Does no one understand sarcasm on this site?

“You’re too old to be yelling!”

Going realllly far to protect Hilldawg on this one. If Lewinsky isn't enough, look at the other women who said he assaulted them. Hillary called them liars too. Just google: women Bill Clinton sexually assaulted. You'll get a nice list.

Correct, but Hillary aided in the railroading of Lewinsky. I’m sure she wishes she hadn’t now, especially now that she “believes women” accusers. It's a political football that unravels when you throw it when she called Lewinsky and other women liars.

Man, Peyton Manning turns down an interview request just this one time and Mort makes it personal.

Because by and large women’s sports are not fun to watch, much the same way that peewee football is not fun to watch. Why would people be as excited to watch far inferior overall athletes play much worse competition in a less skilled, slower fashion, in an already confusing game to many Americans?
