A-fucking-men. I’ve been a passionate democrat & moderate liberal for the last decade and a half but even I am really fucking over hearing about what an enemy I, as an evil white woman, am to our nation. Fuck this dumbass site and its white women writers who are trying to see who can be more woke.

Well the MLS kinda does support about half of the NWSL teams and there is one USL affiliated team. A stronger MLS would help in the long run with establishing better facilities and advertising, but that’s only been true for Portland really. But yeah whatever money the NBA loses on WNBA is negligible in the long run…

They are trying the hard marketing approach towards women for the NWSL because they tried the general public approach and it didn’t work. NWSL and WPS had deals with Fox Sports and ESPN but the ratings didn’t justify these networks to continue airing the product. These were after successful World Cup years too.…

That’s an old, and silly theory. We have a massive country of more than 300 million. Even considering that many of our best athletes play other sports, we have as many world class athletes playing soccer as any other country, except for maybe Brazil, and Argentina. We’re not very good because we’ve been slow in…

I’m a huge fan of the women’s game, but that’s utterly ridiculous. 

Because we had about a 30 year head start when it comes to women’s soccer.

I love your optimism, but the truth is they’re crushing terrible teams, and having trouble with the good ones.

Remember, if you’re not in agreement with everything Splinter believes then you aren’t a true Democrat and if you aren’t a true Democrat you shouldn’t be supported. Barack Obama is the reason we now have Trump. /s

Splinter writers will be here any minute to let you know that Susan Rice is just a centrist corporate stooge of the corrupt Democratic Party from the woefully disappointing Obama administration that probably wouldn’t have been any different for the country if McCain/Romney were in the White House. (sorry, was just…

Having hard quota requirements never works out well. It usually leads to a lot of resentment by the people not part of the quota and undercuts the qualifications and skills of the people that are part of it. I like the concept but it’s going to backfire. 

we live in the Biff version of Back to the Future 2.

It is interesting to learn that “boof” meant “butt sex” in the 80's, because today I understand the term to mean “ingest drugs anally.”

Or by flirting with contesting Texas whilst ignoring Wisconsin and slighting Pennsylvania and Michigan.

The thing that adds to the weirdness, or maybe, driving the weirdness, is that no one over age 24 has grown up rooting for the Nationals. All those weirdo conservative elites decided, as adults with presumably existing baseball allegiances, chose to get obsessed about the Nats because they’re old white people who…

My brother was young sous-chef in a popular restaurant in downtown Toronto years ago. The owners had been nickel and diming for a while but they broke the camel’s back on Canada Day, easily one of the busiest days of the year. On the chef’s repeated requests, they had finally agreed to give a raise to the young bus boy…

Ok name those lies and we will both correct him....

College football referee and baseball umpire here. So much of the commentary about this event has ascribed motivation to this official’s action, most of which is probably unwarranted. Ramos’s sole motivation was to enforce the rules, and enforce them as consistently as he could. He almost certainly didn’t want to…

source? check out tennis-focused threads. this ump is known to be thin skinned with men too. there’s a video of him taking points from djoker making the rounds. plus, i’m a pretty big tennis fan — and a big Williams sisters fan — and i’ve never once seen an outburst like this in a grand slam final. the coaching…

I feel like Serena’s supporters (i.e. Thompson here, everyone on Jezebel) are also feeling freaked out because they’re getting annihilated, like calling a Forbes column “Gamergate-esque scalp hunting” and throwing their respective fits while tripping over themselves to come to Serena’s defense.

My two bff’s got divorced fairly recently. Bought them both vibrators and they watched female produced internet porn. Seamless transition.
