Yeah this argument is preposterous. You do know that both teams had the same model (college soccer, contracts with the NT) and the model was good enough in the US to produce the quite possible the greatest team the USWNT had (the Akers-Mia Hamm teams) and win 2 World Cups and for the men it wasn’t good enough to make…

When people talk about FIFA and the bonuses from the World Cup, they are doing exactly that.

I can’t believe that post has so many stars when almost 100% of it was totally wrong. Federations aren’t public entities sponsored by the government, in fact they are the total opposite and government intervention will get you kicked out of FIFA.

Yeah while the USWNT vs USMNT is more complicated, in the ensuing confusion people mention about the difference in bonus prices in the WC, when in that case it is exactly that kind of scale between the World Cups (Clippers vs Sparks).

Good. Hope she quits if she turns out to be governor. She along with Rosello and Rivera Marin (who quit before he was fired) were a Bermuda Triangle of suckitude. There were all in on it and there are already emails about she saying she didn’t want to investigate the chat because she didn’t want to find out anything…

She’s trash. She’s part of the whole Rosello group and totally stalled in the investigation including not asking for the cellphones when she had done so immediately in other cases. There are rumors that there are investigations that could lead to her being arrested and also that maybe they will name a Secretary of…

It’s been a territory for the majority of its history so probably if they can get away from it. Also people like me who support independence know that voting for it is the equivalent of voting for Jill Stein in the US.

Except she wasn’t on equal footing because Ronaldo didn’t had to play with the equivalent of the OFC Nations league level of competition in almost every competition. There is a reason why the “best” (quotation marks because I don’t know if this team has done enough to get past them) US women team with Mia Hamm and the…

It means jackshit in Puerto Rico. The last pro statehood governor was a republican and the majority of Puerto Ricans either didn’t know about it or didn’t care. It’s all about PNP,PPD and PIP.

Because the pro statehood party has been operating under bad faith the last 3 referendums as they try to do everything to get Puerto Rico to be a state.

I’ve always chosen not to go to Statehood and I always will if given the chance because I’m Mexican and Puerto Rican, not american. The United States is just another country to me and I don’t feel anything for it and never will.

Lodeiro was a starter for Uruguay in this Copa America, so I don’t know why you say he’s not a part of Uruguay for a while. And I’m anti  MLS  so I’m not saying it to defend it.

It says a lot that you talk about a disgrace in us not being a state, as if we didn’t have a say in wanting to or not and taken for granted. As if it isn’t clear that is not that simple especially when the statehood party is the one embroiled in this scandal.

All of Trump’s actions were from bad faith towards Puerto Rico but that doesn’t mean they didn’t also take advantage of that because like I’ve said, they were awful people and being against Trump didn’t change that.

As a Mexican-Puerto Rican I always found kind of funny (although kind of turned off by it a little) how because of their fights with Trump, a lot of liberals in the US immediately went on about how great the heads of states of both Mexico and Puerto Rico are when if you really study them, you will find that’s not the…

Yeah I can see the reveal of the name is just flat out necessary but I don’t think they should’ve also revealed the scene itself. It seems like too much and I don’t see the point of knowing that scene. It’s a total spoiler. 

I’m not a James Bond expert (saw only 3 of them) but didn’t they just ruined the reveal scene? The announcement had ruined it to a point but to describe the introduction? He described the scene completely. Now that people are so mad about spoilers, it seems too much to go that far.

It should actually be “Chingue a su madre”. For “A tu” it should be “Chinga a tu madre”.

People in the US are mixing stuff up a lot in this debate. The equal pay started about the USWNT lawsuit about how they make more money than the USMNT and don’t get the same pay. They showed the data but that in of itself is also mixed up since the USSF doesn’t make all it’s money based on USMNT and USWNT games (in…

They are also wrong about Women soccer generating the most money in the US. It’s not the USWNT or the USMNT who generates the most money, it’s the Mexican National Football team.
