I like her better

Hey Eric, you should have forewarned the video with "contains violence, viewer discretion is advised". That woman is a criminal dressed as soccer player!

I saw the video of her work on TSN Sportscentre. One of the hosts made a comparison to Sean Avery.

In that case, I wouldn't mind being her "sloppy seconds"

[Cheeta]

LOL! Oh boy. What can I say.

Which is worse? The too odvious violent conduct or the too odvious visual impairment of the officiating crews.

Anyway, a very big and very permanent bulls-eye has been painted on Ms. Lambert now.

Miss Lambert has now been suspended by UNM for her actions.

I hope they pull her scholarships too.

Do you think that maybe the coach should have noticed her behaviour and pulled her from the game? In the college game she can re-enter the game after he had a chat with her. He has to have some responsibility in this matter.

[Cheeta]

^ Echo that.

Her coach is a woman. The whole thing has probably been the most visible solitary event in the history of women's soccer in North America. I'm not sure anything Mia Hamm or anyone else did garnered more press. The newspapers comments and boards are all full of people accusing and yes, defending her (i.e. if someone elbowed me or grabbed my crotch I'd smack her too). It's interesting because if she were a man the attention would be what, 1% at best? I'm just glad the girl didn't get whiplash, and coming through the players legs blind from the back with all her force makes you physically shudder. Lambert got lucky, both of those could have been career-ending and life-changing. What I wonder and find it odd no one has looked into is does she have a history of this kind of stuff? And if not what the Hell provoked her? Someone or something happened. Ironic that the thread is "The Materazzi of women's soccer" because the whole thing could well be a Zidane (i.e. your Sister...).
