    People simultaneously claiming to be upset because they love the flag while then getting mad at Kaepernick for preventing the production and sale of flag shoes. Hard to think of something more disrespectful to the flag, past or present, than walking in it and visually stepping on it with every stride.

    But yes, be upset that now Nike won't make millions of dollars off foreign labor so that thousands of people can wear something that looks like the flag on their feet.

    The strawman density in this post is impressive.  Respect

    The US really needs a midfielder who can control possession. Is there one anywhere on the team? Perhaps maybe a substitute who is arguably the best midfielder in the world the coach inexplicably refuses to start?

    My mind.  It's pretty fucking boggled right now

  3. Mewis has played well and can match up against the monster CB from France on set pieces, Lavelle is the only really creative MF and Ertz is the irreplaceable leader on the pitch and maintains discipline as the DM.

    That is the argument.  Not a good one though considering Horan is arguably the best MF in the world

  4. Impossible to predict how this goes.  France simply hasn't been impressive in either the group stage or against Brazil relative to their reputation coming into the tournament.  They should also be somewhat tired after playing 120 minutes against Brazil.

    The U.S. was excellent in the group stage but the competition was lacking.  They were also somewhat fortunate against Spain, although the performance was better than the media reports would lead you to believe and was also hamstrung by poor coaching and a ridiculous GK error.  

    This game could go any way.  Shellacking by either team or close win by either team.  I'm expecting a battle with a wounded victor walking into a SF against a relatively fresh England

     

     

  5. What is the % breakdown of the homeless population within the following groups (understanding that there is significant overlap)?

    • Mental illness other than addicts
    • Addicts
    • Voluntarily homeless (for example, but not exclusively, 20 year old "travelers")
    • Mentally deficient
    • Down on their luck not attributable to the other categories
