I thought SU was the dominant club?

Boys will be boys. You can have your woke bs

It must really be killing you that you have to say “woke” instead of what you really want to say, the N word.

If these institutions, organizations, and clubs are committed to anti-racism and diversity, equity, and inclusion, they must begin by removing the individuals who do not follow their commitments. We cannot progress as a society or create an anti-racist environment in the US soccer system without giving significant consequences to individuals like Crossfire Player 1 and Crossfire Player 2.




FILM FROM THE GAME PRESENTED BY AUGUST HUNTER

The following details contain sensitive and vulgar language around homophobia and racism that may be triggering. The following details have not been redacted by the Women in Soccer (WIS) team in any way.

1) Yellow card (1:02:30)

• It is clear that the player falling after I put pressure on them was not a foul
• The referee calls the foul but reaches to grab a yellow card after the XF coach gestures to the referee to give me a card
• The XF parents can be heard cheering when I receive the card
• You can also hear you calling the referee out on the call because it clearly was not a foul

2) PK (1:04:30)

• Begins with me on a breakaway, I beat the center back and the outside back clearly fouls me in the box
• The center back (Crossfire Player 1), who is at the back of the box, clearly follows me all the way past the eighteen-yard box
• As I am minding my own business and pulling my socks up, you can see Crossfire Player 1 bend down and call me a "Pussy ass bitch" the first time
• She then turns to Crossfire Player 2 (center mid #7) and indirectly calls me a "Pussy ass bitch" for not taking the PK. Anna claps her hands and calls me a "Pussy ass bitch"
• Crossfire Player 1 then turns around again and claps in my face to call me a "Pussy ass bitch" again
• I do not respond at all during this whole exchange

3) Called a man (1:09:30)

• The ball goes in on a throw-in and I win the ball. A center midfielder runs into me and falls on her own

Time stamps don’t match up.

Are you educated? Do you understand the term "woke"? Do you not believe racism and prejudice exist?

Maybe you don't believe these things occurred, or maybe you don't believe that these issues amounted to racism or prejudice. But your attitude portrays a world where it doesn't exist.

All you've done is prove the point.

[Guest]

Wow! So unfortunate to see responses like this.

[Guest]

It's funny.

You have SU parents who quickly admit they had an incident and it was brought to the attention of the club and parents and dealt with head on.

Vs

At XF there is constant deflection, lack of accountability, and a head in the sand mentality that it either never happened or it's just "boys will be boys".

Which culture would you want to expose your child to? Which environment would you want your child to learn from?

The above incident is from an SU player with regard to AH. Did Seattle United push for any form of punishment for the players/ref/coach? The answer is no, their leadership did not.

That’s what happens when no one else heard it/she made it up.

nothing in the video to see or hear. Did they upload the wrong video?

Oh look, guess who beat XF 2010 2 of 3 games this year. Put a sock in it!

Thanks to the SU goalie who stood on his head yesterday. Easily could have gone the other way (though SU is a slightly better team IMO).

[Guest]

The loss was so bad for xf that they have decided to replace the current coach and revamp the roster in the coming weeks. Yikes.

I heard that the boys chose their own nicknames. The team gets along well and it is not a toxic, racist, hateful environment. Boys were wrong, and they were being foolish and now learned their lessons. They were disciplined... many were suspended from practices/games for varying # of weeks depending on severity of offense.

Honestly, i think most think SU handled it well vs how XF typically handles things.

That link has been running on the front page of the SU website this year. Having been at a game where a xfire player dropped the n word multiple times, I wish xfire had the integrity to take a similar stand. I haven't seen any evidence of that, but would love to be proven wrong.

[Guest]

What happened? Looks like the demise of XF is going to have to wait.

Didya see their performance this past weekend in Oceanside?

[Guest]

For ECNL in most ages it's just them and Crossfire. Eastside is pushing behind them though.
