Why is the U.S. Women's Soccer Team so classless?

If you don’t like getting scored on, stop it!

We should just abolish women's sports. If there is no difference in athleticism between men and women, just let the ones good enough play on the men's national team.

The US Women's soccer team was slammed for wildly celebrating every goal
Is there a limit on how many goals they can "wildly celebrate?" 13 goals is a ton, but it's not like there are usually a ton of goals to celebrate, especially in the marquee event in the sport that only occurs every 4 years.

Unless they were taunting the other team, this is just another example of people looking for something to whine about.

There is a differential. This is group play. Run up the score at all costs.

Sweden could beat Chile 6-0 and Thailand 5-0, and you'll be glad there is a cushion and you didn't take the foot off the gas up 5-0.

Picture on left is "wildly celebrating"?

Are you triggered?

You failed to mention, that after the game, the U.S. women went and hugged the Thais, and offered encouragement.

And where was this outrage when the U.S. Men's basketball team was running up the score on opposing teams in the early years of Olympic basketball.

Stop being a whiney bitch.

I do disagree with running up the score. But as the great Joe Gibbs said after the Patriots thrashed the Redskins in a game in 2007 (score was 52-7), basically "it was our job to stop them from scoring, and we didn't do our job."

They are all destined to be replaced by men pretending to be women anyway. Trannies will dominate female sports soon enough.

Women hate other women. This is nothing new.

Goes hand-in-hand with this. That butch chick is a real piece of work. I’m having trouble cheering for this team at all.

From the Daily Caller:

U.S. women’s soccer star Megan Rapinoe ignored the national anthem before the Women’s World Cup game against Thailand on Tuesday.

Rapinoe, who is openly gay, had previously said she would never sing the national anthem again as an ‘f-you’ to President Donald Trump. She announced that she would “never put my hand over my heart” or sing the national anthem in an interview with Yahoo News in May.

If this were PeeWee League, HS or even collegiate-level sports I could see some issue here.

But it's not, it's professional level and sometimes getting your arse handed to you by someone excited to do it is just fricking part of it. If someone is bothered by their opponent cheering about their win then they shouln't be competing at that level.

The Rest of PT: "The US is the greatest country in the world! Merica! We need to crush all others!"

Women's Soccer Thread: "How dare they run up the score and celebrate?"

People like you don't even pretend to have any consistency, except in who you hate.

I watched some of the college softball and it's hilarious how when they get, say, a ground out, the whole team gathers together and cheers

There's a reason women's sports never gained any traction. It's just not that interesting.

The only truly excessive celebration I saw was Rapinoe's and that's because she's an idiot. 2 of the women scored their 1st ever goals in the World Cup and were congratulated by teamamtes. So what? The other possible excessive one was Alex Morgan when she scored her 5th and celebrated with her team for a world cup tying record. Getting a record that may never be surpassed is probably a cause for celebration. It is in ever other sport.

A decent men’s high school team would destroy them
