So the semis have been decided: It's Sweden - Netherlands and US - England. I'm hoping for a England - Holland final, so we'll likely see the opposite.... You got half of your prediction right.

Listening to 650, and their sport’s update said the US won. The guy pronounced her name “RAP-in-O. She’s already forgotten. Do you remember Lorena Bobbitt?

Look up Lorena Bobbitt. Back in the 90’s she cut her husband’s (you know what) off. Her defence was he was mean and nasty to her. Like you say, her actions were justified because it was the man’s fault. Isn’t the answer a simple one? Just treat everyone with respect. If the person is bad, then get the police to haul them away. What about women that are being abused, and the justice system fails them? Many of us here are husbands, and fathers (some grandparents) and I don’t want any girl in our family to suffer at the hands of an abusive husband. Our justice in ?Canada’s can be way too soft. This is a tough one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I enjoyed a lot of the games in this World Cup. Some great soccer. One of my favorite moments was that great save by French defender Griedge Mbock Bathy when Brazil's Dbinha had broken in and beat the goaltender, to have her potential go-ahead extra-time goal stopped by the backrushing Bathy. Dbinha lay on the ground - laughing. Very refreshing. Thems the breaks. Canada's loss to Sweden was a bit disappointing, but Sweden is a great team - once again took bronze - was happy to see them dispatch England. Would have been epic if Holland had been able to knock off the Americans, but couldn't be bothered to watch - the US women are just too u.g.l.y. to stomach. Couldn't be bothered to watch a single USA game - disgusting, entitled, imperial assholes trumping any ignorant/arrogance I've ever seen in the women's game. Nothing to do with "feminism" - what they did was absolute prick material, mirrorring so many other American assholes on the international stage. Well done - they gave the tournament a black eye and deserve the heat they took for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my "career" I have been on both ends of scores like USA - Thailand and I can tell you that any team above Peewee level that acted the way the US did in that game would have been picking their chicklets up off the ice.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical hubris from a nation of narcissists. And the crying for equal pay....sorry but you don't bring in the same revenues. Even remotely....&^@# off.

This is a tough one. I remember the severed penis story... what always shocked me though is how everyone saw it as a comedic thing. attempted murder on a sleeping man with possible life long mutilation is comedy..... even sexual assault on men is comedy. as the epidemic of rapes in prison is not only ignored, but society finds it ok to make light of with bubba jokes. now change the word "man" to "woman" and watch how the reaction would be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched games but lets not kid ourselves and compare this to the men's wold cup here.... Exactly - and technically, women got paid more from a percentage point of view: "1) 2010 – Women’s World Cup brought in $73M in revenue, Men’s World Cup $4B! (NBC Sports) 2) In 2018 according to FIFA the Men’s World Cup had 3.6B total viewers, the last Women’s World Cup in 2015 only 764M. 3) In 2010 according to Forbes women got “paid 9 percent of the final Women’s World Cup take, while the men only earned 7 percent of the revenue from the 2018 Men’s World Cup.” " The Soccer players complaining may be great at kicking a ball, not nearly as great at understanding basic economics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
