Fuck the dirty whiny thug Weeds. They act like complete assholes on the field.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

@jonlipsitz Fair point. But I always look at it as a confidence thing. Defenders seem less likely to overthink their kicks and do those idiotic stutter step kicks that miss too often.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

It's not the position. 3 of the 5 US kickers in the 99 final were defenders, with the CB duo taking (and converting) the first two kicks.

Wild stat 🤯

10 center backs have been called to take a spot kick during penalty shootouts at the 2026 World Cup...

SIX have missed with FIVE of them going over or hitting the bar ⬆️

@ThatLitManager I don't disagree, and I think it's so stupid. But those are the rules.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

@ThatLitManager It's Dallas Stadium during the WC. FIFA rules prohibit sponsored names on stadiums used for WC matches.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

Now that the group stage is over, I think it's safe to say that the AFC was the most disappointing confederation in this tournament. I just expected better from them overall.

@uclanak46 Canada, not California.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

@caro_ped1a Netflix doesn't own the broadcasting rights to the WC in those other countries.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

@keepernotes @2010MisterChip Leap years?

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

Can we stop with the "Turkiye is a dark horse" narrative until they actually do something at a major tournament? They haven't done jack in over 20 years!

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

Can we PLEASE move on from the idea that teams from Africa are just there to make up the numbers and will get slaughtered by any team from Europe without question?

@MXavi1602 @BrasilianFury @lexiescarina Don't forget Daniela. She was a big part of those great Brazil teams as well. Shame that injuries derailed her career after 2008, because she was soooo good.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

@EqualizerSoccer Small nitpick- last year was the second time the Courage missed the playoffs. They missed out in 2022 as well.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

Fingers crossed that this is not serious. Never want injuries to happen to anyone.

[Jeff Kassouf @JeffKassouf]

Barbra Banda has left Orlando's match injured from a non-contact injury as she sprinted to challenge for the ball. Covered her face with her hands then jersey, visibly upset. Pride playing with 10, out of subs. Banda had two goals and an assist tonight. #NWSL

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

@FANGIRLOVERLOAD I think it's more the DisCo being consistent. They have to punish the offense equally to other hair pulls, or there's a risk of an appearance of bias.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

@NWSLThisWeek Please use JPN when referring to Japan. What you used is a slur.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

Makes me barf, because I loathe the Weeds, but I can't not acknowledge their new direction and still call myself a soccer fan.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

Much as I hate to say anything positive about the Weeds, Wilson missing last year was the best thing that ever could have happened for them long term.

[Jenn Hayes @arusulato30]

Once those players departed, they had to rebuild around youth, and they're looking set for years to come without relying on big names.
