Scott Sterling, always worth the watch...

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

On the contrary, they are a far-left wing totalitarian state. I find them easy to hate.

Good grief, I don't GAF about soccer unless it's the world cup either, but I don't feel the need to proclaim its "gayness". It's been fun especially since the US is playing well, and it's been a pleasant un-politicized event, AND foreigners are starting to get the veil lifted from their eyes about America and Americans.

Besides, it's the dog days of summer sports-wise. Tune in and enjoy it.

Did you see how draconian they've become since the start of Covid? Not hard to hate them at all.

It is so refreshing to see people sing the anthem, in the stands and most of the players.

I'm reminded of a story i read years ago where a man sang loudly at a ballgame and his son said he was embarrassed. The father replied, "I'm embarrassed that you don't sing."

In these years where do many people are not proud to be an American, it is great to see a stadium full of people who are.

I can read the scoreboard. I just didn't understand what was under review on our last apparent score. Commentators saying offsides? Which is hilarious to me with such a chaotic field.

You don't understand soccer? It's the same as hockey or basketball. Each team tries to put the ball in the net. The team without the ball tries to prevent it.

And much like basketball they fall down a lot trying to invoke a foul.

Watch the games guys, doesn't happen as much anymore. Every time I watch soccer, I am reminded why I stopped watching it., so this World Cup has been a really pleasant surprise. Given that there's barely any sports worth watching right now take a stab at it. You might actually like it.

I mean, you had a bunch of Americans *in Seattle* singing the national anthem. Plus the higher, the ratings the more Megan Rapinoe gets pissed

I'm sure the local soy boys and green haired, septum pierced Lib women stayed home and celebrated Pride Month while the Americans in attendance came from elsewhere in the U.S.

Nah, I'll stick to watching the US Open. But I'm glad to hear people were singing the national anthem in Seattle.

Think of it as a football game that would be 14-0 at half.

First half was really good but we are running out of gas.
I don’t say this in a braggedocious way. But it’s true. I’ve been right about everything.

I'll help the haters here...

As a sport, soccer doesn't make sense...feet and legs are for running, jumping and gaining leverage. Hands are for manipulating the ball. Soccer has it mostly backwards.

A lot of the movements are technically athletic, but awkward (eg, elbows up and out when controlling the ball).

However, given the rules as they are, it's a good game to watch, and I hear a fun game to play.

How does one coach soccer?

Other than teaching children and beginners, it's gotta be the easiest job on earth. "Kick the ball." "Run." "Run while kicking the ball." "When inbounding, throw the ball over your head." "You can use your head but not your hands." That's about it, as far as I can tell.

There are no plays. If there are, they get disrupted by the opposing players. Otherwise, it's the monotony of running from one end of the field to the other with very little scoring. Rhymes with boring.
Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.
