  1. If our set pieces and crosses presented any danger whatsoever, I'd feel pretty good about winning this game.
  2. I would bet that it's coming more from some internal strategists that are numbers-driven saying "Fuck vibes, locking up PA = EC victory" or some such. It's the right call on paper in most elections, but we can see and feel the vibes with the other guy who has an innate ability to connect with normal people and WILL swing votes with his message. Also, a narrow EC victory for Harris likely ends in violence, so swing for the fences and go with the guy that could potentially start a movement all on his own.
  3. Shapiro might lock up PA, but he probably kills all the vibes. No thanks. Walz is such a slam dunk.
  4. Watched the replay. Girma is top 5 in the world. Horan has zero juice, zero touch, can't turn and gives it away almost every time. We can't get the ball up the middle of the field, they know it, they collapse on the wings and it's a reset or a turnover. Same as in the WC against Ned and the Swedes. Our backline seems too easily broken especially on the left, Sonnet and Dunn were both beaten by some easy combination play. Serious question, can Lavell not play the 10? At least sub Shaw in for Horan at some point and move Rose to the 10. It seems insane to leave her at the 10 for the entire game. Ends up being a nice win, hopefully we aren't easily defended in the semis.
  5. Morocco is very well organized.
  6. I don't think "weird" was the endgame for that messaging, I expect it to shift to "strange" or "off-putting" and eventually end up at "backwards" to sync with the overall message. Or that's what I think they should do. The biracial stuff is only going to land with their hardened base, yet again. For like the 5000th time, it appears that winning this election in a legitimate manner was never really plan A for these people, and all they believe is necessary to regain power is to keep their base angry and loyal. I'm not a concern troll or conspiracy person at all, I'm just having a hard time connecting the dots and not seeing an overall plan that wasn't intended to end in blatant election fuckery at the very least.
  7. This dude has an uncanny knack for shitting on people in a way that makes me hate him and care more about the people he shits on. It's pretty amazing actually.
  8. Hahaha, "Trump is unable to "couch" his disdain for women."
  9. I want to send Cooper's bit about "real men" to every guy I know. Good shit.
  10. Amazing that his Dudeness is obviously in his garage
  11. She hasn't been good so far in the tournament, her awareness and touch was much better in the past. Her pass into the box for the second goal against Zambia was a fucking dime though.
  12. Rodman is fucking dominant. She was good in WC, but not nearly as impactful as she has been in these two games. Seems like she is being given much more space to work. Perhaps having Swanson at the 9 is opening it up, but I am guessing there is a tactical explanation as well.
  13. Let's go. Rodman on the board after a slick turn in the box to split two defenders and beat the keeper.
  14. That was an unfortunate miss off the left post.
  15. France turned up the heat on us in the last 10ish minutes. Up until then, it was pretty even with a couple of nice chances for the US. Aaronson looks to be our best player in the attack.
  16. Is it true that JD Vance injected his hillbilly Santorum between the cushions of his wife's new couch? Disgusting, but fair, if true.
  17. There goes Old Freak Nasty getting all lathered up about hiring more women again.
  18. Bukari already doing dangerous things.
  19. Pareira is having a hell of a game.
  20. So that was a punch in the face? Looked more like he was getting his arm in to break it up. Either way, this team can't be worse without him.
  21. Driussi looks like he is point shaving tonight.
  22. Very true, but the sound of fans' heads exploding would be deafening.
  23. Bro haven't you heard? USMNT is hiring Southgate and Berhalter is taking over Austin FC when we #WolffOAT, enshittification complete.
