US National Team, a Small Pool of True International Players

Why couldn't the US National team get past the round of 16?
They are far from being treated like Pros. Very small pool of international players.
In the MLS, the average pay is a little over $100,000 a year. If they have a family, they need a 2nd job.
In comparison, Players bought from a European team get paid per year: Messi plays in the MLS for Miami, $28M (his former clubs: Barcelona, Paris Saint Germain); Son Heung-Min (Korea), also in the MLS for Los Angeles (his former clubs: Hamburg and Chelsea) $11M.
For the MLS to become popular the clubs need to bring in more famous players to attract the public, instead of flooding the league with average foreign players.
How many US players played in a European League (British premiere; France; Spain; Germany; Portugal; Italy)?
A few famous European teams: Paris St Germain; Real Madrid; Manchester; Bayern Munich; Juventus; Barcelona; Porto; etc...
Players in those teams are millionaires.
There is a certain motivation for an athlete with a short career to play for whom pays most, and a relaxed mind.
If the MLS gets sponsors capable of turning this semi-pro league into a true PRO league, the results might be different.
As long as Americans prefer Football; Basketball; Baseball; the best athletes will go there.
Even in High Schools, coaches of the major sports pull out the most promissing athletes from 'Soccer'.

The United Soccer League (USL) has become a disruptor within the MLS Academy system as of late. USL identified an opportunity to scout and recruit top youth talent away from MLS and offer them a different path to the professional ranks, as well as a more accelerated and unobstructed path to Europe.

High School 'Soccer' in PA. Mixed team, some girls did better than some boys.

American People's Views on War

Ever since the tyrannies imposed on some of the countries of the Five Eyes, I have been bragging on how the US government tip-toed to impose on the American people: "The US government could not do to the American people what was done to the people of Canada; Australia; France and the UK, because there are 85 million legal gun owners owning over 400 million guns. Should they try it would result in a catastrophy."
But then, the following video by a Canadian, got me thinking.
What would the US military do if any of the following nations were to attempt to overthrow their government?
Canada; Australia; France; UK? The US military would quash anything remotely harmful to those governments, unless Americans too were to overthrow their government. Anything but a coordinated effort would be disastrous.

LIFE INSURER REFUSES TO COVER VACCINE DEATH

An explosive case is currently being hotly debated on social media: In France, a rich, older entrepreneur from Paris is said to have died as a result of a Corona injection. Previously, he had taken out multi-million dollar life insurance policies for the benefit of his children and grandchildren, according to a media report.
Although vaccination is recognized as the cause of death by doctors and the insurance company, it has refused to pay out. The reason is because the side effects of the Corona jabs are known and published. They argue that the deceased took part in an experiment at his own risk. Covid-19 in itself is not classed as a “critical illness”.


The insurance company justified the refusal of payment to the family by stating that the use of experimental medication or treatments, including Corona injections, is expressly excluded from the insurance contract. The family’s subsequent lawsuit against the insurance company has been unsuccessful.
The court allegedly justified its ruling as follows: “The side effects of the experimental vaccine are published and the deceased could not claim to have known nothing about it when he voluntarily took the vaccine. There is no law or mandate in France that compelled him to be vaccinated. Hence his death is essentially suicide.” Since suicide is not covered by the policy from the outset, the insurance refuses to budge.
“The court recognizes the classification of the insurer who, in view of the announced side effects, including death, legally regards participation in the phase three experiment, whose proven harmlessness is not given, as voluntarily taking a fatal risk that is not covered by the contract and legally recognized as suicide.
This case has not yet been reported in France ‘s mainstream media. The case was published by the family’s lawyer, Carlo Alberto Brusa, on social media. Link to full story: https://freewestmedia.com/2022/01/14/life-insurer-refuses-to-cover-vaccine-death/

1st it Was Nicki Minaj, Now Lisa?

Blackpink's Lisa STOPPED from attending Paris Fashion Week events by YG Entertainment



With Rosé gracing the YSL fashion show with her presence, Jisoo drawing the biggest crowd at Dior and Jennie set to become one of the most anticipated guests at Chanel's show, Blinks and Lilies were excited about Lisa’s appearance at the Paris Fashion Week. She is the global ambassador for French fashion house Celine and luxury jewelry brand Bvlgari. While Celine doesn’t have a fashion show at the PFW this year, Lisa was meant to attend other events. But looks like her label YG has other plans.

But is it really her Agency that prevented her?

COVID-19 division due to the Heavy French restrictions on the unvaxxed?

Nicki Minaj wasn't allowed into the Met Gala in NYC, but Rosé (BlackPink) was able to. Why?
Nicki Minaj wan't vaccinated, and more than likely Rosé was in order to enter a Public venue in NYC.

Knowing the heavy restrictions of France, and more specifically Paris, we can only assume that Rosé, Jisoo, and Jennie are all 3 (BlackPink mates) vaccinated.

Lisa is NOT allowed to attend the Paris fashion week, but instead travelled to

Nice (also France) with her mother.

Simple logic would dictate that Lisa is not vaccinated.

One interesting fact Lisa is the only Buddhist in the group, while all 3 others are Christians.




 

 Well, apparently she was vaccinated

Hundreds of people protested in the streets of New York City on Wednesday against COVID-19 vaccine mandates, chanting "we will not comply" and "no more shots."
Teachers were at the forefront of the protest which was organized by New York unions representing workers across the city, after Mayor Bill de Blasio announced that public school teachers and staff must be vaccinated against COVID-19.
The protests came a week after the city also began requiring proof of COVID-19 vaccination at restaurants, gyms and other businesses.
The vaccine mandates are part of a push to get more residents inoculated and to slow the spread of the highly contagious Delta variant.
