    If he showed her his posts, she’d tell him “Honey, why are you so obsessed with transgenders? Is there something you want to tell me?”

    Its really not like that at all. Anyone who's watched this cycle shoulda known this team was in trouble, even before 3 top players got hurt before the tournament (Sauerbrunn, Macario, Swanson). Not to mention Rose Lavell who couldnt go 90. We'd lost to England, Germany and France in the run up. Questions about the coach too, who apparently doesnt like to use subs with a still very deep team in attack.

    Please show me the animosity. It appears you’re confused again.
    The only hatred I see is guys like you show it towards those who disagree with your idea of patriotism.

    Cmon man. "Most" people are not standing in line during the anthem.

    "Most" people are at their seats as that is generally the last thing before the kickoff, puck drop, first pitch etc.

    "Most" people like the anthem and like it as a sports tradition.

    And you're comment about the military also puts you in the minority. The opposite of "most".

    To be honest with you, the wife is usually the one who goes after you on this board. She thinks your nasty.
    My posts are much more tame and kind-hearted.

    Of course. I always respect the office. Even if I disagree with the person holding it. I wasn’t a fan of Trump and I’m not a fan of Biden. Doesn’t change my feelings towards my country.

    Not sure if it’s a good comparison though. The president has more of an impact on our country than a sports team. The president is also an elected official. Not exactly the same.

    If the Gators beat Utah or Tennessee this year would you also compare that to Russia losing in 1980? Sweden was +260 to win. The Gators are +250 vs Utah and +270 vs Tenn.

    I don’t blame them. The idea of belting out the NA (a difficult and unattractive song to sing) at some rando sporting event is absurd. Tip of the hat to them.

    The NA is much better as an orchestral piece but I don’t go to sporting events to hear the orchestra.

    Many experts were picking Sweden to win that game. Many feared the poor showing in the opening round would land them against Sweden. They feared it for this very reason.

    Vegas odds are set by the people placing bets once the opening line is set. Americans drove the odds based in our bias. Sweden is absolutely good enough to win the WC.

    Sweden os #3 in the world and 4-0 in this tournament.
    USWNT went 1-2-1.

    Sweden is better.
    Team USA wasn't better in 1980. They were better for one day though.

    Sweden is better than team USA at the moment.

    Sweden beat the US 3-0 in Tokyo 2 years ago.

    Yeah, I'm a horrible singer to begin with, and it's one of the toughest for anyone to make sound good. The most anyone is getting out of me is possibly lip-syncing.
