I’m such a damn nerd, I actually thought “Hope Solo” was going to be a new character in the upcoming Star Wars movie. I thought it odd that some one would be pitting a character in a movie that wasn’t even out yet.:smack: ETA: Just saw **John** ’s post. Whew, at least I’m not alone! ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > The US national team, like most national soccer teams, _is_ professional. I stand correct on that point then. Thanks. But the important part to me is that the team is representing the U.S. If it were merely a professional team, I wouldn’t care nearly as much. ---

**magellan01** if you’ve been paying attention you may have noticed that sports at the “national representation” level are often even less concerned with matters of character than are commercial pro leagues. In any case, great player, lousy example of personal deportment… eh, you can surely summon up a busload of other pros in a variety of sports and genders who can be described that way. > [@GargoyleWB](#): > > > [@sitchensis](#): > > > > I’m from the Northwest, and the majority of the people I know are decedents of miners, loggers, farmers and fisherman.

This wouldn’t be a story if it didn’t come on the heels of the NFLs issues or didn’t involve a famous person. We don’t ignore our underclass, we are them, or one generation removed from them. > > I seldom do “this” posts, but “this”. > > If you kicked out of town every cowhand that was tossed through a saloon window after flipping over the poker table and waving a broken whisky bottle at the floozies catcalling from the upper bannister, then there’d be no one left in town. Here’s hoping widespread Weed legalization leads to a general mellowing of the PNW, then. But yeah, people do forget that the PNW historically had to be opened up and settled by tough and rough people. > [@magellan01](#): > > Yep, she’s a deranged crazy ass bitch > [@Stringbean](#): > > I always suspected she was a crazy ho, but those Fappening shots damn near sealed it. Well, as long as we’re being this enlightened and correct, I must confess that my first impulse reaction is that I’d hit that (after first getting some strenuous conditioning training), before the advice about where _not to put it in_ kicks on. (Though seriously guys, crazy bitch, I can dig that, but crazy _ **ho** _, oh please, come on…) ---

I do not follow sports so I had literally never heard of this person. Do sports people get away with stuff that would get you or me locked up? I think there’s a guy named Simpson who could offer an opinion of that. ---

Wow, didn’t even know of those pics until this thread. But that has nothing to do with my objection. Masturbating is not against the law, beating people up is. Strangely, US Soccer suspended her for being in a car with her drunk husband driving but gave her a pass on the domestic abuse. I don’t get it. ---

You know, like millions of other women. Though it still doesn’t make sense unless they think she intentionally leaked them for publicity–you know, whoring herself out. It seems more like people think some women are hos if they enjoy sex. ---

I don’t get it. And what’s worse is that both basketball and freaking American football has been shown to take that type of violence more seriously.
