We always say that soccer can bring the truth out of people. If someone feels bad, or guilty, or if a crowd is really getting to them, then they tend to play bad too. It’s not exactly scientific. It can be quietly frankly wrong, but it just makes a certain kind of sense. If a player screws over a fan base and then proceeds to play poorly, or get injured, we tend to say to ourselves, “Good.” It’s as if some kind of universal balance is being maintained.
Young Women Give Their Opinions On Gareth Bale. It Gets Ugly.
They say women are the taste makers of every generation. If that is true then maybe this video has something to do with why so many people took a metaphorical dump on Gareth Bale in the 2014/15 season.

MLS Supporters Have Invented The Midwestia Belt: Coming To The MLS Soon
There are trophies to be won all over the place in soccer, but no prominent belts. Until now.
