women's soccer, the way it should be
Continuing the trend of coaches saying really stupid things, Canada’s Andrew Olivieri was not to be outdone. After Canada’s 2-1 loss to Norway, FIFA quoted him as saying:
“We should have played with more discipline tactically, and try to avoid the mistakes individually, and follow what we had planned. We could have tried to save one point, but I don’t think it would have been the right thing to do.”
Even a few days later, I do not have words to explain the WTF-ery there.

I've only been in Portland for 20 minutes and somehow I'm auditing two courses on identity politics?
Someone is 9 hours from Portland. Someone close to you. Someone who has a Soda Stream.
RT @ErinDees: I really just like watching the Thorns games so that I can watch @danifoxhoven run.
I'll just go ahead and assume they lost 5,000 fans who expected unlimited signature areas.
The Thorns lost more attendance between 1st and 2nd home games than most other NWSL venues can fit in theirs, while being above 10k.
That quote is just SO WRONG! Trying to get a draw out of a loss would not have been the right thing to do?!?!?! So glad I’m not interviewing this guy for any job.
