I am greatful for my loop pedal

straight up brolic posted:

Well yeah but I mean like everywhere else in the world the kids get professional instruction at like 5, and here we play all sports and it's mostly run by moms and poo poo. It would require a complete change of the American athletics system to get us on par with the rest of the world even if Lebron wanted to play

Whenever I criticize U.S. soccer my friends perpetually defend the team and always make excuses and are reluctant to show any anger or passion towards our performances.

"We are playing great but ____ is an amazing team"

Or pointing out the couple good things we did and oh we arent that bad blah blah

I dont know how to make it clearer that they are the problem. This is the cultural problem in the U.S. with soccer.

This is our debut game, the 100th anniversary and its the first IN America and there were so many moments where you could hear a cricket it was so quiet.

Zero loving passion from anyone.

So, the US isn't knocked out yet? Cause our nation needs to focus on what's truly important. Watching the Warriors deny LeBron James another title two years in a row.

Its a race between Cleveland and USMNT to get eliminated first...

my favorite moment was when bradley was right near the ball and did a full comedic slapstick 360 "wheres the ball" spin as colombia passed it and made that play that ended up in the shot off the top bar


also klinnsman just said we were "even" with colombia in play. ok guy.

Game trip report:

SF's stadium sucks. Traffic in and out is terrible. Foot traffic inside is a nightmare. What a joke stadium for a joke 49ers team coached by a fat paedophile.

Americans sure like to wear random rear end soccer shirts. David Luiz Chelsea shirt? Why? Neymar Barca shirt? He's not even here (well he might be hanging out in SF proper). Don't get it.

Two dudes behind me in the beer line were asking how many wins the USMNT needed to make it to the next world cup.

Colombians thought the US fan section in the north end was pretty good.

Nothing important or interesting happened on the pitch.

If only Steph Curry had played soccer, he'd score every shot from outside the box and the USA would've won 22-2

That was pathetic, we got curb stomped by Columbia. I have a feeling the game could have been 8-0 if COL wanted, they were on a whole other level.

Burn the entire US Soccer program to the ground and rebuild it with people who would rather win than protect their lovely fiefdom.

This. I was going to write a lengthy carepost about U.S. soccer dating back to Bob Gansler and how Bradley got fired 6 years ago? after the side literally quit in the Gold Cup final against Mexico with basically the same track record as Klinsmann has now, and all this other poo poo, but hell.

Pemberton, Moreira, Carvajal and Alvarado are all decent keepers who will do a job, the problem is that Pemberton and Carvajal have lapses of judgement so they're a liability sometimes. I wish Moreira was starting.
