    Missed the first part of the game...goodness. The first was soft as crap too, but at least she was going to goal.  Extremely lucky.  Don't know much about the rest of the world, but apparently France is pretty good, so can't do that again.

    So lucky.  That 2nd penalty was a joke.  The whole game was pretty sloppy....a lot of flopping and laying on the ground like they just got shot from both teams.  Can't stand that shit.  Sounds like France is the biggest threat to the U.S.  They had a rough game yesterday as well but still went through.

    What is the point of VAR if you look at that and still determine it's a penalty?  Can't there be some common sense with it?

    It was an ugly game.

    I'm pretty sure Hope Solo is relatively wealthy. She doesn't need to live rent free in your head....but she does. Hope Solo.

    I love it.  Can not believe some have never heard of it.  Maybe 2nd world Euro countries have not caught up yet...

    Also, Google is a great tool to research some of this stuff.

    Google is also good when You’re ignorant enough to call Sweden a ”2nd world Euro country” and also do not understand that I know the expression - But asked What he meant by it in relations to me and Hope Solo. 

    But Nice try. A for effort.

    This is one of the least shocking things I've ever read.  The fact that the likely next CEO is the head coach's brother is such a joke.

    No, but if she does, I will wish only ill tidings on the current Team USA, as retribution.

    Game is in Philly tomorrow and I’m at the shore. Sunday night will dampen the crowd a bit for sure

    What are the USMNT's chances against Jamaica tomorrow night? I know we had trouble with them recently. We just had trouble with Curacao. We're clearly not able to qualify for World Cups or Olympics at this point. I just hope our scrubs can pull their heads out and show a little skill this time. I'm tired of nail biters against shitty sides. It's getting old.

    Oh, and go USWNT! At least we have reason to be proud! Dispatch England, and move onto the finals.

    I'm a simple caveman analyst, but that seems like a big save at the 82nd minute.

    Chippy and nasty!
