Women ranked lowest ever in latest poll.

5th, which is still awesome.

But, it's hard to ignore how their drop began at the same time they started focusing on political stuff.

The plan was to re-grass(just cover probably) an artificial grass field two days before a major international soccer fixture? What the fuck?!

U.S. loses to Panama 2-1 thanks to Weah getting a red card in the first half.

C'mon Klopp, we will treat you like a soccer demi god, we only need you for a gold cup and a HOME world cup, and you can fuck off to wherever afterwards with 5-10M a year in your pocket. 2-3 years in/out.

Sounds like Klopp blocked 'em. Wants to chill for a while. Can't blame him.

Fair. I imagine it's like Olympic baseball. It's not like the MLB all-stars are over there playing.

Exactly. It's U-23 with 3 older players allowed, but even still, many don't.

I think it's safe to say that if terrorists hit any WC games, nobody in the middle class will be victimized.

I've tried to buy tickets every round, and got nothing. There's 1 more round left, we'll see.

But yeah, the aftermarket prices are INSANE on the resale. I honestly don't know what the list prices are, but hopefully much, much lower.
