[quote="austour" post=352433][quote="oldschool Redmen" post=352421][quote="austour" post=352409]Just got back into the country and watched the WWC US game Sunday but the games are not at a good time for viewing on weekdays. I'll try and watch the game Thursday. Re Copa I'll watch the USMNT tonight but not as interested in that one.[/quote]
Copa is S America, so we don't play in that, We're in the Gold Cup, hope we kick Guyana's ass tonight.
As for the women, I hope we celebrate alot for each goal, and if the world don't like it, my mentality is:
F THE WORLD, you don't like it, then stop us if you can.
Let no one dictate how we can celebrate.
I do like how we trolled TSN and former canadien players with Golf claps, that was funny.
I really want us to play Canada and kick their asses, 7-0 and celebrate big time after each damn goal.
Sorry north, I just hate being told how we can celebrate and when it's appropriate.
Blame Fifa and Thailand for not funding and developing the sport more.
What were we supposed to do, pass it around the backfield a million time? Wouldn't that be disrespectful to the game and fans in attendance?[/quote]
Yeah my bad on copa/gold.
Re the controversy I heard no one say they should have stopped scoring. Just that they should tone down the celebrations.
That said F 'em. These women were scoring in the biggest tournament in the world. Enjoy the experience.
I remember the dream team acting all morose after dominating every game back in the day . . . yeah, right.[/quote]
Even the thailand coach and news people said that you should celebrate how you want. That this is a joyful event and you should have joy when you win.
Glad canada hasn't won the Stanley cup since 92 (the habs), and it's their sport.
