Oh dear..., where to begin...
This time, the lack of respect for fellow
commentators is inexcusable. From name naming, to plain simply insulting, her
so called “opinion” article is simply a mediocre example of her profession. And
this is the less atrocious part.
At this point, I also believe that Ann Coulter
is a poor example of the female sex. Apparently, in her opinion the female sex
is unable to properly play any sports. She justifies this explaining that
soccer, after all ‘is a game for girls’. Why? Apparently for Ann
Coulson, a player biting another player is a poor excuse of male expression,
that is, there was no punching or even a cross-body block. I don’t even know
how to begin to criticize this, for what she has written is so unreasonable. But
let’s review the facts, Luiz Suarez, a Uruguayan player, when biting his
counter-part from the Italian team, Giorgio Chiellini shows the most appalling
sportsmanship behaviour. FIFA, rightly
so, suspended Luiz Suarez of all football-related activity for four months.
Secondly, let’s keep the punching and the cross-body block at their respective
sports, boxing and American football. And above all, let’s not confuse good
sportsmanship behaviour with playing any sport. One thing is throwing a good
punch while boxing; another and completely different thing is punching a player
while paying basketball, or football, or baseball! NBA, FIFA or Major League
Baseball would never support this kind of behaviour or any other Institution
for that matter.
Apparently besides bragging about injuries, Ann
Coulter now also brags about heat-stroke deaths of NFL players. An injury is
not enough to prove any sport as a manly sport, only death now would do it.
Let’s make this clear, death in any sport is not a manly thing, and is far from
a positive thing, and these tragedies do not constitute any evidence of a more manly
sport. They show unhealthy practice
routines as these should only happen within certain threshold temperatures. This is a
no-brainer. So, any heat-break is more than recommended. I would like to know
if Ann Coulter is able to run 62miles facing 32 degrees or more. Oh wait, Ann
Coulter is a female. Of course she is unable to do so. After all, only NFL
players are manly enough to support this kind of heat pressures. And then die of
it.
Ann Coulter’s ignorance at this stage is more
than appalling, is a tragedy. Her lack of understanding, her appalling lack
of judgment is sad really. I truly believe that Ann Coulter in incapable of
understanding and truly embrace any sporting event. Simply because Ann Coulter
is incapable to understand good sportsmanship. And the complexities of scoring
systems! Ann Coulter is unable to understand the scoring system of the World
Cup, only this way it is justifiable the fact she believes that any team is a
winner team. I doubt that she understands that the scoring system of the group stage
is different from the subsequent knock-out stages. And since she fails to understand that, I
doubt that she is able to understand any other scoring system...from any other
competition.
I am really surprised that Ann Coulter
mentioned the Ryder Cup, Davis Cup or even the America´s Cup. All of these
competitions are far too boring according to Ann Coulter´s set of values. At any of these events, nor a punching or a
cross-body block would ever happen. I am fairly sure that these should be classified
as ‘girls sports’. And I won’t even
begin to mention the complexities of scoring at these competitions! Is Ann
Coulter able to follow these without getting a meltdown? Oh wait. She would be
far to bored at this stage, so no harm done. All of these competitions involve much more
than ‘circumnavigating a big field’ in
order to score, and in much more time...without any cross-body blocks. Or any heat-stroke
deaths.
I have to say now that would feel insulted if
Ann Coulter would follow anything that I would show any appreciation. In the
end it is good that Ann Coulter does not appreciate soccer. It is good that she
has much more to do, and to practice, as punching and cross-body block a NFL
player. Oh wait. She cannot do that. After all she is just a girl. She is only allowed
to be watching some ballet dance.
