2016-17 D1 Women's soccer thread!!!

Lets say West Virginia wins .
What would you think that's worth?
I think USC is worth about a bottle of mac12.
Hypothetical, of course.
Bernie, being a man of the people you seem to have acquired some rather refined tastes...since I do not imbibe I will need a minute to think of something of comparable value to collect after WVA wins...

Ive been called everything from a "bumbling redneck" to a "renaissance man". Go figure.
Since we are not gambling, we have an agreement to share goods should our team lose.
Gift certificates might work.
Does Costco have gift certs?

Bernie over the course of the several years that I have read your posts I have to say you've grown on me. Not because I agree with you (although I agree about as often as I don't) but because of your consistency and your candor. Not to mention that you have a talented kid that sure knows how to kick the round ball. Good luck to her going forward and may she win all of her games except when she plays against my player (I liked it better when they played on the same side. If yours gets tired of her ocean view she would be a welcome transfer). Good luck and may I finally beat you at something.
 
ZD you've got me jealous. I can't beat Bernie to save my life. He is like my personal Kryptonite!!

Some call it "reading the tea leaves"...others call it intuition. I'd call it a dab of street smarts sprinkled w/a whole lotta luck. (Story of my life).

For this final, I'm pro West Virginia but am consistently concerned about USC's ability to bang the crap out of their opponent (as they did vs GT in 2nd half).....and so, reluctantly, I'm going with USC, 1-0.

I hope Pruitt starts this game. She's earned it, and I need this game to fulfill my prophetic status.

You are far from a bumbling redneck you've got too good a taste for good wine, spirits and beer to be a redneck. Also, I didn't notice you strumming a banjo and you do have a kid at one of the finest institutions of higher learning in the West. I see you more as a guy somewhere in the middle.

I'm a little worried now that you have ZD believing. He is a pragmatist unlike myself and when you mix education and street smarts you get something greater than the sum of its parts...

Bernie, does Costco pay healthcare for their workers? Maybe I am confusing them with WMT...Amazon is my card of choice...but I will be happy to spring for a bottle of Mac12 if the Trojans can pull it off...they were outplayed in the first half vs GTown IMHO but turned up the intensity and overwhelmed the Hoyas in the 2nd H though the Hoyas had a slight edge in shots 9 v 6 I think. The Mountaineers seems like the stronger team overall to me. For the record I prefer the SoCal team to win out of regional loyalty...

You're on.
Amazon vs mac 12.

I agree about the Georgetown game. USC played a terrible game, but got through on a moment of brilliance.
I expect them to play better tonight.
 
Congrats to USC....
West Virginia was all over the Trojans much of the game.
Trojans stayed calm through out and I gotta think that was the difference in the end.

That Bernie knows his soccer.....:cool:
 
Jfan USC did more than just hang on...but I think WVA wins 7/10 times they play...

Bernie, I may have to buy one for you and then one for me lol...will pm you for logistics of delivery..kudos to the Trojans...can't even believe I am writing this...off to the gym now...will circle back later...

Congratulations Bernie!!!
 
Julie Foudy didn't do her homework. When she talked about SC she mostly talked about the back line, and that's fine, but the reason I liked SC all year is because they have the best threesome up top (Pruitt, Johnson, & Anthony). They all know how to put the ball in the net and that sets them apart from any other team in the country imo. She never really took notice of them the way I feel she should have. Even when WV tied the game, I told my dd's that SC still had a chance (although it was looking dire as SC was running out of gas). I told them Pruitt just needs a chance or two.

Pruitt is the real McCoy.
