2017-2018 D1 Women's Soccer Talk!

Hey Dominic, ever since the forum went down, whenever I click on the Div1 Women's soccer thread, I get re-directed to some off-topic sub-sub-forum where the posts are all either in haiku or end with someone picking up their teeth with broken fingers. Weird.

What Kaepernick has now is immortality. And most of the NFL quarterbacks are worse than him. What he has done so well is show America how racist the NFL is. Guess what. Lot's of mothers of little black boys that we love to watch tear each other up each week from Pop Warner on up are now starting to realize that the NFL and white America doesn't give a $hit about their kids.

My son who would be an excellent football player will never play a down of it. Plenty of other talented kids will be passing on it too. Let's see how great the NFL is when you have Carson Wentz playing against Steve Janikowski....

If it wasn’t for the cost of golf, golf is where the money (huge endorsement contracts) is....ask Tiger, Phil, and Jack. Both still make boat loads of money well into retirement from the game. Oh yeah, and they can keep playing well into their 50’s too.

I've been to several NFL games, and there are always people chugging a beer, ordering a hot dog, and I can assume going number 2 on the toilet, during the national anthem. Why isn't this considered disrespectful to the flag and military? Last post since I'm taking a break from the insanity of this forum, but I applaud MAPs daughter and her teammates for standing up (or kneeling, I suppose) for such an important cause. Kaepernick, and any player who kneels, will go down on the right side of history. MAP should be proud that her daughter can be counted amongst those who kneeled.

I would add, I have also seen fans who don’t remove their hats or/and put their hand over their heart during the National Anthem. IMO, that is worse than taking a knee, because they aren’t protesting anything.

No they are just ignorant. What is the protesters excuse? In my opinion if you are protesting police violence, do it the the face of the police not on National TV just because you have a large audience. It is confusing trying to explain to a child what football has to do with the police.

Being ignorant is no excuse, for removing your hat or putting your right hand over your heart. It’s worse, because they were taught this since grade school.

As for those protesting, it’s their 1st amendment right to do so. The difference is they have a larger platform to do it on than the average Joe’s. If fans/posters don’t like it....use your 1st amendment right by not watching.

Yes, so lets teach our little kids that cops are pigs and Kaepernick is a hero, just solved the problem.
 
Joe boycott all programs that kneel

You like that ring tone?

Don't apply

Don't accept

Anything they offer anything say no

Joe don't drink from that fountain it's nasty anyhow
 
so WHERE should black people protest? in their own homes when no one is around? so it doesn't make you uncomfortable? why is it acceptable for white people to bring dollar store tiki torches to a a college town and chant racist BS, but some soccer players can't take a knee. GTFOH with this BS folks. check yourself when you have the NERVE to tell anyone how they should protest. its a CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT. oh and MOST military people I know (and you're talking to a daughter of an airmen, the granddaughter of a soldier, and the wife of another airmen) applaud the protest. the only people upset are YOU. who gives a damn if MLK and JFK were before your time? we talk about the holocaust ALL THE TIME, so we will MAKE TIME to talk about racial discrimination in this country. but since you can't handle it here, can you please just talk about soccer? your passive racism is DISGUSTING. God forbid my daughter ever taints yours in college by talking to her about her experiences as a young woman of color, your daughter may want to protest with her.

and this message is for WHOMEVER it needs to apply to. lets move along please.
