I definitely agree with that, listened to a quick interview today with Rooney talking about just that. We shall see, first of the tour is on Thursday with LA Galaxy.

Sounds like a great trip!

Whose watching the World Cup 2015 this month?
Yes, I refuse to attach the modifier "women" to this tournament until they call the other one the "men's World Cup"
I'm so excited!

world cup fever
 

Yep am watching the world cup here.
Does anyone think that france were robbed of a victory last night.
But I suppose at the end of the day if you have the chance against germany you have to make it count.
Still feel sorry for france though, they were all over the germans
They deserved to win.
I am an england supporter.
Some of the games have been really good.
Some on the decisions by the refs have been a bit off to say the least.
Looking forward to australia v japan today and england v canada.
Hope ya enjoying it to

Congress Sends Letter After EPA Ignores NBC Queries About Cancer And Artifical Turf

My favorite butch soccer star, Abby Wambach has been pointing out the sexism and danger of crumbled rubber artificial playing surfaces for years. That the World Cup for Women was played on such a surface in 2015, when this was a known danger-- can be added to FIFA's criminal activities of last years.

US Womens National team shake-up
 

Anyone else following all the action with the US women's soccer team today?
What is definite is that established team members -Heather O'Reilly and Whitney Engender- are not part of the roster for Olympic qualifying.
What is developing is that a new player (Hinkle) included on the team, has been public about her views against homosexuals. For example, on the day same-sex marriage was legalized, she posted that gays are lost, rejeccted and abandoned by Christ.
Thoughts?
