    I appreciate the board refraining from any "kissing your sister" mentions regarding the discussion on the team's celebration.

    I think Carli is clutching her pearls because the tournament favorite has played like crap in three games and that there are higher standards for the USWNT.

    If they'd only sung along when the national anthem was played. That would have solved everything.

    Well, this did happen after an 11th-inning walkoff victory.

    Now, if any teams pop champagne this year for clinching a wild-card spot after losing to the A's . . .

    Yeah, but the grind of the MLB season is so much more stressful!

    You're saying it's not?

    Thou shalt not do anything other than genuflect to the USWNT.

    People go weirdly out of their way to shit on the team.

    There's plenty of room for criticism of their play. They're getting outworked game after game and the strategy seems questionable... but that's not what people complain about.

    They didn't sing the anthem and they seemed too happy to advance out of the group stage. The horror.
