Just because you’re not watching, a lot of other people are. In addition to the numbers below, you’ll note that it’s not even an honest comparison, as the Men’s National Team did not go to the World Cup in 2018. If you were a sponsor of US women’s World Cup matches, you’d have your ad seen a helluva lot more than in

And is the converse true? We can point to plenty of wealthy people in American life (Operation Varsity Blues) who didn’t work and weren’t the best but got wealthy and successful anyway.

It think it is important to distinguish between US Soccer and FIFA.

I went to a conference recently that focused on Diversity Equity and Inclusion. Matthew Knowles (Bey & Solonge’s Dad) spoke. He had some good quips, but the entire time he was basically saying “be the best at whatever you do and you’ll find success”... It was really wild. He was sooooo far removed from reality! In the

White men always fear being treated the way they treat everyone else.  

If there’s anything I’ve learned from wealthy, powerful white men, there’s one thing they cannot stand: public shame.

Yeah- the way she bodily threw herself to interrupt balls had to hurt. They don’t even wear any padding! She was super impressive and gave them a hell of a fight. I did think her Dutch teammates were overaggressive. There were so many injuries. 

Every time she opens her mouth, I’m more and more impressed. This is a woman this country needs!

Definitely some players coming out.

Also, POTUS

Let’s just name Rapinoe, the next head of USA Soccer and future FIFA President.

I would kill to find out what Rapinoe and Macron spoke about during their extended handshake.

Support the NWSL! All 23 of these champions play stateside. The NWSL just signed a tv deal with ESPN for the rest of the season and Budweiser is now an official sponsor. Not everyone in the league are allocated by USSF, in fact, bunned goddess Ali Krieger isn’t even allocated and she subbed in for an injured Kelley

Keep in mind - someone decided this should exist. Someone actually followed through and made it. And someone decided it looked good enough to share.

Downton Abbey? I think you meant straight out of “Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?”

The Panama Hat is killing me!  I love it!

Really? I thought she looked like someone from a 1940s gangster movie. That hat! Seriously? (And I agree with the other commenter that she looks a bit like Camilla -- I thought it WAS Camilla at first, until I saw her sitting down.)

Princess Kate’s outfit looks straight out of a 1980's soap opera.  It is very unflattering and the color is all wrong.  

He is about 6'3 or 6'4.
