About the only position they could fill, though. Most, if not all, women arenât big or strong enough for the NFL (most men arenât, either, but even more so for women).
If there ever is a woman position player, Iâd put it in soccer. Rugby, football, strength problems; basketball, height; baseball, arm/shoulder structure issues.
Really? You just got there and thought you can make a half time speech telling them they needed more energy?
After reading about her actual ability, she didnât deserve the spot. She couldnât make a 35 years field goal in practice and they still gave her a spot. Wtf? Kids in HS mess around and can make that kick. If there was ever going to be a competent female player, she just held them back.
This did make me chuckleâŚnot because she is a she, but it takes some pretty low EQ/SQ to think thatâs ok, especially as someone whoâs been playing team sports at a high level.
a) Thereâs not enough money in the womenâs game to make it worth while.
b) Wouldnât be surprised if thereâs more of a stigma in the womenâs game. They would try to avoid the âgirls are always cryingâ thing.
Thatâs nothing to do with the gender, just that particular group of people, and probably the blame should go to the coaching staff too. There will be tons of examples where female soccer teams are respectful to their opponents.
Idk what they were thinking. The Thai team basically work part time playing because they donât get paid very much and itâs their first time. They seem to be oblivious to how disrespectful it was and blamed their criticism on sexism and how men wouldnât be criticized which is complete BS.
This is considering they are the greatest female team ever playing a pro am team.
Hey, when I played soccer we once beat an opposing team 10-0. Watch NCAA football and a lot of it is powerhouse teams deliberately scheduling against pushovers to inflate their records and make them eligible for bowls.
New Zealand All-Blacks once beat Japan 100-0.
As one coach said âThey stop trying to get points against us, weâll stop trying to get points against them.â
And theyâre rightly criticized for it if itâs not already handled by the players âpolicingâ themselves. It was a ridiculous deflection on the womenâs team to say it was sexist to criticize and men wouldnât be criticized for the same thing. They absolutely would, and rightly so.
