Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

Hmmm...apparently Canada's soccer team has a transgender player.

Quinn is first openly transgender athlete to secure Olympic medal after Canada's semifinal win over USWNT (msn.com)

That’s absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Christian Lowe]

It was up to 7 yesterday too. Turned it off when it was down to 3. We should win some golds in both basketballs, perhaps baseball…

Well… scratch baseball and women’s soccer.

Couldn't find a ton of information on it, but it appears to be someone whos sex is a female, but she changed her gender identity to non-binary. They are still able to play women's soccer because of their sex identity being female. I think the majority of people would agree that sexual orientation should be what's important when determining if you play women's or men sports.

They just need a men, women, and “trans” category so they can compete against each other willingly.

Or they could compete in the men’s classifications since usually men’s classifications are considered open classifications….. there is a reason that you never see it go the other direction a female being trans and competing against men.

There is a lot of people that don’t understand that their is an actual physical difference between men and women.

I can fully appreciate...Stacked roster, 3rd or 4th place last yr. Total choke.

West Ham fan here…no expectations = no disappointment

Georgia’s (the self crowned “5 star U”) got Crystal balls coming in for 6 different 3 stars.

Told people this was happening. The top kids are finally seeing through UGAs BS so they’re having to do the same thing we have this class

Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner

Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner

He would have really dominated as Caitlyn

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Yeah...I know, but I just can't take it...I've tried. If soccer matches had way more moments like that ending goal in each game I would I could take it.

Just watching those guys mostly just run around kicking the ball back and forth to each other for a couple of hours is maddeningly boring to me..

I won't call soccer stupid, it is a beloved game worldwide...I just don't like it.

But I bet you like baseball? Where they stand around 90% of the game?

Got fired from the juice factory today. Said I couldn't concentrate.

I’d like to see the amount of transgender people who would stop competing if they made a trans category. I guarantee there is a bigger percentage, than most think, that are only doing it because they can’t win, or compete, in their original category.

I can’t watch soccer because they look like ants running around a giant meadow. The way it’s televised is very depressing lol, I do agree baseball can be very boring as well, but there is more action, somehow. I understand why people like all sorts of sports. I don’t hate soccer at all. Just not my thing.

 

[hooperj75]

That advantage should’ve been neutralized with Rappinoe.

Maybe Quinn(they) can get a subway gig as well.

What are you talking about... their average recruit is rated over 6 points higher than ours right now.. We won't come close to signing 11 4-5 stars and all they will do is add more. You know those 6 3 stars will get the Kirby bump once they commit.. I'm all for crapping on UGA when given the chance, but this isn't it

Their commercials were suffering with this stupid American obligation.

Just giving him some grief. I love going to the Battery and watching the Braves. It’s great. But I can’t watch it on tv like soccer. I get really bored. Lol. Like you said, it’s not for everyone and everyone has their favorite sports.

 

[DarkAvenger]

Id be careful here our program ran in red last year. Could easily be 'Mein Fulmer' Clueless Field at Bob Neyland Stadium.

Fify

Michael Palardy signed with my Dolphins over the off-season and apparently has been impressing. Local Dolphins media have mentioned multiple times so far this camp that he looks to be a real weapon. Lots of hang time on his punts and giving the returners absolutely no time for a return.

Obviously not since he was crapping on UGA and you had to try to ruin it. I don’t care what he said, if it puts UGA down then he is 100% correct in my mind.

The mental gymnastics some will go through to defend a rival on this forum is astounding lol

What I said was true. If they keep taking kids like they’re taking now, UGA won’t finish top 10. The top recruits they’re gonna get are the ones they’ve landed already, the rest of the class will be filled w/ lower tier guys

 

[Smokeytom]

what a douchey comment.

Watched the Women's Sand/beach volleyball game between US and Alabama(Canada).

T 1-1, Score in question wouldve given Murca a tie ane momentum. America calls a replay, call is overturned. Pt to us. Canada whines, point overturned is overturned.

What the ****?
