Until Fr3sh gets her red-carded Jara style. Women players are innocent and naive. Yesterday a Canadian playerette was wasting time at 85min while one goal down :rofl:

Give us 6 months time to train, Allegri as coach and we'll crush them
I get it if you don't like or find value in something. What I don't get is what motivates someone to have to get on a soapbox about it.

I mean, what motivates you?

I think that all racing sports are a joke in that people pay money to watch others get in vehicles and drive in circles for hours. But it's another thing for me to feel the need to publicly express that as if anyone asked my opinion.

Firstly WWC was the temporary topic here
Secondly we are on a forum in general, in a hangout thread in particular, where users express whatever they feel like without being asked.
Thirdly I won't get offended if others express what they do or don't like. Although I want to remark that you might only have encountered NASCAR (driving in circles)

Was out and about with two boys today. Fantastic weather. Standing in line outside a kiosk waiting to order some burgers while the boys ran around the place. Made small talk with this girl. Didn't even hit on her & she was like my husband & my kid are waiting for me. WTF!

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

I'd pay money to see that ego of yours shredded like a julienne salad. :D
I honestly don't think that would happen :p

Only thing I see a pro woman soccer player beating me in is stamina. A high school soccer team can win over the women's NT and that says a lot about the gulf in difference between the genders when it comes to sports.

That's not what I said, you just can't deny that they're not as physically dynamic as males, no matter how much they practice. As it stands, they're much weaker and slower, that's just their genetic build. Takes nothing away from their hard work or effort.

If you're playing law of averages, yes. But the top professionals are on a whole different level. Unless you're a professional player yourself, you're pretty much full of it. Genetic advantages only get you so far in a sport, regardless of your race, gender, etc.

But not that I am surprised. This male sports ego thing is basically just a rehash of the 1970s and the Billie Jean King vs Bobby Riggs circus, and nobody should have to live through that crap again.

You have to remember a high school soccer team has guys that are 6'2" and 180 lbs. No women will stand a chance against that, not to mention even the small dudes will outrun and overpower them. It's just genetics, bro. No law of averages here.
