    Ssmiff, do you imagine we are all standing up and tearing our shirts off when responding to you? Why do you think we need to calm down, based on typed replies?

    There’s not, though. She’s not some 36 year old playing at McFee Park in KMSL

    The fact that his avatar or little tag line underneath it doesn't say "Calm Down" yet shows y'all are getting soft.

    The Jamaican hurdler Hansle Parchment won gold in a major upset of the reigning world champion — Team USA's Grant Holloway — in the men's 110-meter hurdles final at the Tokyo Olympics.

    But for a moment, it appeared as though Parchment might not even make it to the race in time.

    The 31-year-old speedster found himself at an aquatics center rather than a track shortly before his event was set to begin. He had accidentally taken the wrong bus on the day of the final.....

    [Hope] Solo noted that she, herself, has witnessed Rapinoe, who said in 2019 that she would “probably never sing the national anthem again,” take aim at teammates who did not take a knee.

    “I think the kneeling thing can be very divisive,” Solo added. “I've seen Megan Rapinoe almost bully players into kneeling because she really wants to stand up for something in her particular way.”

    I can believe what she’s saying. I wouldn’t be surprised at all

    I wouldn’t believe a single thing Hope Solo says. She has no credibility.

    It’s more based on the impression i get from rapinoe than hope solo saying it

    it could be true, except solo couldn't have witnessed it. she was off the team by the time Kaepernick kneeled, let alone rapinoe.

    Which is why it’s not really based on her saying it, for me.
    She’s trying to bully the whole damn organization, it’s not hard to think she’d bully a teammate

    yes, she can be bullying on the kneeling and solo be a liar. solo probably knows of it second hand but that wouldn't be a story with her in it.

    Which is why her saying it really isn’t important to me
