What we found out today is that you post things that are not true.

Sure. You can create whatever you want in that retirement fantasyland that you live in. Ginseng and exercise Magoo. Ginseng and exercise. Your wife might like Cialis too....
 
This kind of reaction is exactly why Trump won the election. Take an innocuous, and probably accurate comment and turn it into a flame war with someone who likely supports the LGBTQ community.

Did someone not hug you enough as a kid?

Thank you for saying it. The only reason it was even brought up is because of Magoo (@espola ) not having anything better to do with his time and clearly not having a mastery of Google and fighting off dementia.

Just more empty insults. Is that how you are going to spend the rest of your life?
 
I am not implying that. I have no problem with anybody's lifestyle choices. My point is that leaving out the best player at a particular position for non-injury or personality issues is silly. Hinkle plays with many of these same players and there isn't a problem. Why not give her a pass (like Rapinoe was given) and let her help us win?

According to the stories you linked, that was not Ellis' decision. She stayed away on her own choice.
 
I missed where she said that she hated her teammates (I am not defending her). What is without question is that she is the best American leftback so you saying she sucks kinda shows your agenda here....

Without question? Would you like to google that?
 
au revoir to my Canadien ladies. defense was awful. Beckie hits a decent pk but not as good as Rapinoe's x 2 and the whistle can't save Canada. Not sure why you don't give the PK to Sinclair? Credit to Sweden who is always a well-strategized team, but this is a disappointment for the red/white and I expect calls for a coaching change to begin. coach is under contract through 2020 olympics. Fleming a disappointing tournament too. Westwood will be a welcome respite after a couple rough weeks.
 
The lady has played in over 100 international games. Only Akers and Wambach have ever scored at a higher rate. You can hate on different aspects of her game, but she gets the ball in the net. Both Akers and Wambach had big holes in their games. But the point of soccer is putting the ball in the back of the net. Let's not pretend like its luck and treat her like she is Anna Kournikova.

I like Dunn too. I would also take Lynn Williams over Morgan and Pugh.
As we are all seeing first hand, the women's game is completely different than it was 4+ years ago, when many of her goals were scored. Unless, of course, you are playing cupcake countries. No longer is speed alone enough to score. I have never seen before a starting #9 step up to take a PK only to be removed by their coaching staff--men or women. That says it all.

One more fact to look at if we are ONLY looking at scoring...NWSL all-time scoring (wikipedia). Morgan has 33 goals in 88 games. Kerr has 61 goals in 103 games. Williams (38), Press (37) and Rapinoe (34) all have more goals than Morgan in fewer games. Kim Little has 32 goals in 63 games. Lloyd 31 goals in 81 games. So even in goal scoring she underperforms many of her peers.

She's done a lot for the women's game, and has been a good steward. But if the best players are supposed to be starting on the field in the World Cup, she is not one of them. It will be a shame if she wins the golden boot if her only scores are 5 from the barely rec league Thailand team.

Felt like they tried to force the ball to Sinclair all tournament and then decide not to give her the PK?

Uh, some folks had to go pretty far off topic to bash lesbians and establish their homophobic bona fides. That's ok, I'm happy to bash back.

No one was bashing lesbians - nor should they. It was an innocuous comment that only someone with a bug up their bum could take offense.

Sinclair told Beckie to take the kick. The keeper saved a kick from her at the Algarve Cup and she was worried.

You see what you want to see. There is not a single fact that supports the proposition that Hinkle is not on this team because of her homophobic hatred of gays. The reality is that she is not good enough. She wasn't good enough to play for the WNT in any meaningful games before she revealed herself as a p.o.s. bigot, and she still isn't. Not that there's anything wrong with kicking bigots to the curb, especially when they're insubordinate.

Do you watch the NWSL? It doesn't seem like you do. It seems that you have an axe to grind and want to find a controversy where there isn't one. You think that Hinkle shouldn't be on the team yet Sonnet should? You clearly don't watch games.
 
Keep trying.

Is it no fun getting called out for spouting homophobic conspiracy theories? Hinkle is not good and never has been. She played for a second rate college team and could only make 3rd team All-American, which made her about the 30th best college player in her class, at best.
