Yeah, they got beat by FC Dallas U15 boys team in warmup for the cup.
These women aren't shy about being voices for causes. I love that about them. They fight for what they believe in.
Oh, we know that they aren't all aligned on every single thing.
But they didn't vote her captain because of her political views. She was an elder, and clearly one of the more proficient players.
I think it's naive to believe they didn't vote for her because she's the entire package.
I think it's naive to believe that any democratic process will neatly reflect the political will of the entire demos. But to say that electing a soccer captain neatly reflects the political will of the entire soccer team seems beyond naive.
When it comes to a certain segment of men, that's absolutely true.
Why not open the door to that segment by making the sport less polarizing?
Fair enough. I would only say that the potential horizon might be much bigger than what those ratings indicate. Clearly there's a bigger market, part of which is being needlessly closed off.
Because the concessions that need to be made to open a door to a group that truly don't want the door opened includes too many concessions of principles.
Pretty ironic to use the "You don't have to like it, but you should show the proper amount of respect" line in this situation.
Not really. It's a little like Kawhi. You don't have to love anything about him away from the court, but you have to respect his work on the floor in willing a team to a title.
But it's not simply a question of what you love. It concerns many millions of people not named Geoff Ketchum.
What concessions do you mean?
I get it, when a band has 40+ years of music making ten is tough to narrow to. Great song though and probably preceeded you by a few years.
Honestly, I'm not avoiding the question, but if you have to ask, I'm not sure my explaining it will help.
No you need to explain it, because it's at the very foundation of this apparent disconnect.
