  1. Watching the game because I missed it live. Just saw our first goal. Very pretty. Clinical. I need someone to explain Lindsey Horan to me. I don’t think she’s world class at all. Also slow as molasses. Midfield in general is a weakness of this group. Our attacking trio of Smith, Swanson, and Rodman is lethal. Defense is fine with Girma cleaning up messes and I like what I’ve seen from Fox. Midfield is a fucking nothingburger though.
  2. Definitely the best thread for this. Good job guys.
  3. This surfing seems kinda boring so far. Just watching dudes sitting there waiting for a good wave.
  4. My friend at work is a pretty big surfer and he was saying this is one of the best waves in the world, maybe the best. Although he did say it's a little late in the season. I'm pretty excited for the surfing as well although it may be tough for us laymen to really tell if surfer A is better than surfer B. Looks like nothing on the schedule today except the opening ceremony. Live at 12:30, replay at 6:30 in prime time.
  5. Love the pitch to Terry. We see you as kind of like a combination of Vince Young, Bijan Robinson, Xavier Worthy, Jermichael Finley, Derrick Johnson, and actually Kevin Durant. But better of course.
  6. Pretty poor result against an overmatched 10-woman Zambia, TBH. Announcers were whistling past the graveyard but the truth is that we could have and should have dropped about 8 goals on that opponent.
  7. This second half has been very World Cup-esque. A lot of fucking around, not much in the way of chances created.
  8. We kinda took our foot off the gas after the red card. Just not nearly as assertive pushing the ball forward through the midfield. This is group stage play, we need to run it up if we can.
  9. Unpopular opinion but I'm kinda over these long VAR reviews. Sure correct calls matter but watching a ref watching a little bitty screen is boring TV. lol wow a red?
  10. 2-0 Actually, as I type, 3-0. That was quick.
  11. Rodman's hair is ridiculous. Taking after her dad I suppose.
  12. There it is
  13. Crossbar then cleared off the line then a blast right at the goalkeeper within the span of about 5 seconds. Ball won't go in.
  14. Damn that would've been slick, off the top of the crossbar
  15. Just kicked off vs Zambia. Let's show a little better than that World Cup flop.
  16. i'm gonna start a thread
  17. This multiview thing is pretty cool. Watching USWNT, a tight rugby game, handball, and another random soccer game at the same time.
  18. That's the spirit of watching the Olympics. We're all experts on all of this stuff now.
  19. So the sideline-to-sideline placement is based on where you ground it, but the distance from the goal line is up to the kicker?
  20. I'm only sorta paying attention to this. Why do they sometimes kick the extra point from right up close and other times from way far away?
  21. Looks like we got handball, rugby, women's soccer, and supposedly some archery today.
  22. god damn it
  23. well, shit
  24. I saw that too. Looked like he didn't get a good look at it at first or something. I think we've got a chance to earn a point here. French attack doesn't look all that scary.
