Euro 2022 - What is the Distinction?

[Pine Tree 252]

So the ladies won, good on them.  However, to be honest, I don't see the distinction  between the women's game and the men's, they are all pussies to me, playing a pussy sport.  Still, good on them to have bested the over paid, over acting, under skilled, prima donnas in the men's game.   Maybe they should all exchange salaries and endorsements?

Great stuff.. I hope it inspires English girls to be fitter now, rather than fatter!

Well done ladies, they played well against other ladies. I watched this out of patriotic interest, but I'm afraid I'm clearly a dinosaur and don't take any interest in the women's game per se at all. Always good to see po-faced Germans losing though.

If that were to work, Thailand would be World Champions. Some of those Amazons would scare the hell out of me.

When the German Amazon's went up to collect their runners up medals,all of a sudden the Amazon element was missing.They just looked like a bunch of athletic girls the world over,some tall,some short some in-between.Nothing to get twisted about.

....then don't watch it! It's not compulsory and as far as I'm aware, all TV sets have an option to change channels and an 'off' switch.

 

Glad to help ?

I didn't watch it, I never watch football, at least not the soccer kind.   I was commenting on the massive overreaction in the media to yet one more football game. The hysteria in the UK media was hilarious to behold.

You never made any comment whatsoever about media coverage, even if that was what you meant. My comment was based on what you actually wrote.
