Can you link the McNabb comment for us? I'd like to downvote that one too

I mean more general context from fans themselves. Like what is their thoughts on it I suppose to be specific.
I find that more interesting most of the time to get a general idea.
I asked the same thing about what was up with the TO McNabb controversy a while ago. Sure looking it up can work, but it’s genuinely more interesting to me hearing it from the fan’s perspective. And then afterward seeing the statistics and such.

You can’t really be against something if it is all you have ever known and we’re taught that it was fine for generations at this point. It’s so sad that a lot of the younger adults and the kids now have no idea this version of Afghanistan isn’t what it used to be like

If we want to talk about football, then the Afghanistan women's national team were given Australian visas and currently compete as a club in the 7th tier league in the women's competition.

A lot of the people there agree with the abuse of women.

Basically he was accused of sexual assault by a woman. She was granted a restraining order against him that a judge later dismissed. The MLB took the allegations very seriously and suspended him 2 full seasons, the longest ban ever that wasn't a lifetime ban.
Courts never pressed charges, I believe due to no evidence and not having a case. And Bauer won an appeal to reduce his suspension. He also countersunk the woman for defamation along with suing some sports news sites for the same.

They do and they're getting pretty good. Ranked 9th in the world in this format. Afew of their star players play in our Australian league and they are no joke elite.

I thought the Afghanistan men's team themselves refused to compete afew years ago because the Afgan women's team got banned from playing by their fuckwit government. They may have been diswaded.

Happens all the time with certain other countries - Eritrea is probably the most notable, like half their squad disappears every time they play an away international (including the junior & women's teams)

The important and only point is they were western puppets.
That's it. Everything else is just hogwash.
