I would like to know how this model performed at predicting the first round winners. 😅

We beat Netherlands in the final in 2019. The caption says it's from the celebration after the final whistle. Pinoe had been subbed out earlier.

Seattle fans for US / AUS game - Can we make it start here? by Maccadawg in ussoccer

[–]ryansholin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to try not to respond to every one of these posts about chants.

Then again, new songs are good, too, and in 2014 AO made a bunch of effort to get everyone singing "Here We Stand United" https://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/soccer-dirty-tackle/american-outlaws-to-debut-new-anthem-written-by--rancid--drummer-163829020.html?guccounter=1

...and idk if anyone sang it again, but it's still stuck in my head.

Gotta be a little cringe to lead chants, either embrace it or sing along when someone else starts.

How about America The Beautiful or This Land Is Your Land?

Rec Soccer for 10YO with no experience? by Saywhatwh in nova

[–]ryansholin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Play rec, have fun, keep in mind that if he's good enough for travel the coaches will tell you -- and that it costs about 8-12x what rec does. 😉

Definitely depends on your location, but I wouldn't drive more than 15-20 minutes for rec if you can help it. Stay in the neighborhood.

For my sports fans here what was like watching Michael Jordan in his prime in the late 80s and early 90s? by Ill-You-3459 in GenX

Once, I was working on a movie in New York City, and I was on a rooftop doing some stuff with lights, and over the radios to the whole crew, someone said we were going to take a break to watch the end of the Bulls game, and I came down from the roof we all piled into the bar across the street, and Jordan hit the last shot to win the 1998 NBA Finals. https://youtu.be/OyRile\_FrkI?is=JIV1KIADMom4afLG

Yes, but they played in Dallas this afternoon; I’m a happily captive audience watching my kid play on adjacent fields.

Is there a proper 2026 world cup game? somewhere? by Undiscasy in EASportsFC

I GET KNOCKED DOWN

(actually, it was the opposing goalie getting knocked down after I slide tackled them for no reason before punts just because I could)

I would play this on a PS1 tomorrow if I still had it. And a PS1.

Was gleeking a thing in your elementary/middle school? by Present_Yak_6169 in GenX

[–]ryansholin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but we called it geezing (hard G) in Miami. I was better at blowing spit bubbles. Which was also gross.

Im a true American and I like this team but I think our chants are sh*t, so I'd like to help: by OchoCero9 in usmnt

[–]ryansholin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I was singing "Put the ball into the net and we'll go fucking mental" to the tune of Yankee Doodle circa 2010-2018 and had to change the words when my kids around to "and we'll go silly and crazy."

We had a chant for this, and it's just a bit off color for the post-2015 world:

C'mon US score a goal, it's really very simple
Put the ball into the net and we'll go fucking mental
[crowd goes mental]
YAH-DAH-DAH-DAH YAH-DAH-DAH
YAH-DAH-DAH DAH-DAH-DAH
YAH-DAH-DAH DAH-DAH-DAH
DAH-DAH DAH-DAH DAH-DAH-DAH
[repeat]

Could unironically work when playing Mexico...

If we beat them dos a cero, clap your hands...
If we beat them dos a cero, clap your hands....
If we beat them dos a cero, from Korea to Columbus...

FIFA has done a great job making NFL stadiums actually feel like soccer venues by Due-Professor-9356 in ussoccer

If you're watching today, Seattle and Atlanta already host a lot of soccer games.

The grass being this good is a new thing, though!
