Getting raped over and over by Brazil and Argentina and Colombia won’t make the USMNT any better. It won’t get better until the US soccer development system is able to consistently produce talent on par with the youngins in Europe and South America.

Only if it’s against Duke. This is allowed.

Sorry but CR winning the real group of death and going out in the QFs via pks > US falling ass backwards into second place of the group and getting easily dismantled by Belgium in the Rd of 16.

They consistently stomp most of the CONCACAF, and were the best team in it last world cup. The US has made the knockout round twice in a row despite being in the groups of death and against long odds. They made the semifinals of a major tournament earlier this year and got to the semis (where they got stomped out by…

There’s a constant in the background of the perpetual under-performance.

The three best teams in CONCACAF are the US, Mexico and Costa Rca. The USMNT has pretty convincingly shown themselves to be the bottom of that trifecta in the past few days.

Because he is a straight (maybe bi? who knows?) white male, he is exactly the type of ally that we need more of.

I feel like this criticism, while maybe not entirely invalid, is going to great lengths to make perfect the enemy of the good.

Jezebel writers criticizing someone who did nothing wrong? Things really are starting to get back to normal around here.

I dunno I appreciated it. At least he is standing up and saying SOMETHING in light of this tragedy which is more than I can say for some of my friends.

You know Gawker went under, right Rich? No need for snarking on a reasonable guy saying mostly admirable things anymore. Being shitty for no reason turned out not to be edgy or cool, just a dick move.

Maybe I’m missing something, but I feel like this post is a weird attempt to take issue with Falahee’s statement despite the fact that there is nothing wrong with it.

Are you surprised he has the ball to do it?

I thought you were gonna say he should punch Trump in the mouth.

I use the terms posse and thug however the fuck I want.

It’s not.

But he did try to wrestle and Conor stuffed 2 or 3 take down attempts. Either he brought really weak shit to the table or Conor has been working on his defensive wrestling game a whole hell of a lot since Chad Mendez kept him on the floor in the first round of their fight.

“Go left and mostly wrestle”

The older I get the more I’m convinced that “everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth” is the truest and most perfect philosophical statement ever uttered.

To sum up our plan in a sentence it was “Go left ...” instead I circled into his left hand... for sure death sentence and the result was fitting.
