Either way it didn't give Lambert the right to punch Carlee in the back. It also didn't give Lambert the right to almost snap Kassidy Shumway's neck! So what if Kassidy grabbed her shorts? You can clearly tell in the video she was not aiming for Lambert's crotch, as many people are saying, and she wasn't trying to pull them off. Once again it's not how you act, it's how you react. Lambert could've chosen to react in a way that didn't resort to that kind of behavior. As far as people saying "well why didn't BYU retaliate?," I have a good answer for that. Coach Rockwood does not and will not tolerate that kind of behavior from her players. If they would've chosen to stoop to that level they would be off the team immediately! Kassidy and Carlee are two of BYU's best players and I think it was right for them not to risk missing the rest of the tournament for another girls stupidity. Like I said before it's not how you act, it's how you react. I tip my hat to Coach Rockwood and the BYU women's soccer team for being the bigger person in this entire situation.</p> true 2009-11-07T08:59:08Z 98048 0 2009-11-07T09:00:18Z http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/lakia1120/blog/posts/98048 2009-11-06T21:35:17Z Just Another Fan Profile Blog 1404843 2009-11-06T21:35:17Z 9300176 http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/lakia1120/blog lakia1120 http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/lakia1120 1363623 <p>&nbsp;<strong>The Yankees won the world series thus officially completing the circle of legendary franchises winning championships.

Over the past couple of weeks, I have come across a number of individuals that for a number of reasons (sufficient and insufficient); do not like a specific type of sports organization. These organizations would include the New York Yankees, Los Angeles Lakers, Dallas Cowboys, Boston Red Sox, Manchester United, and New England Patriots among others. These are the organizations that win with currency and arrogance more often than not. I, too, have an issue with a couple of these organizations, but not for the same reasons as you think. When I was younger, I will admit that I hated theYankees and Lakers because they were good, and once Roman Abramovich purchased his play thing, I found a deep hatred for the blue side in London. But I have matured over the past couple of years. I still dislike the Lakers, not because of their financial prowess, but because I have this feeling in the pit of my stomach that they play with the strings of the NBA&rsquo;s brass. Kwame Brown for Pau Gasol, are you kidding me!?!?!? That&rsquo;s for another time. My issues with these clubs have more to do with muscling themselves into the spotlight of the sport without consideration for other organizations in the leagues. The Cowboys have to build the greatest footballing spectacle in sports, and because of this, have received 3 prime time football games 9 weeks into the season. The Boston Red Sox couldn&rsquo;t scout for a while and so to compete, had to spend dollar to dollar with the New York Yankees. The Los Angeles Lakers are always shown on TNT, Christmas and ESPN on Thursday nights. I don&rsquo;t believe in salary caps, so I have to let these types of things go, but I&rsquo;m not here to talk about that either. Today I am here to talk about Chelsea.</p> <p>This Sunday morning at 10:00a.m. CDT, Manchester United will travel down to the bridge to play Chelsea in what probably is the second biggest domestic match we will see this season. (I&rsquo;m assuming that the Madrid-Barca clash will be the biggest, both in opinion and fact). Let me share a little story about my feelings for Chelsea that would surprise each and every one of you. Once upon a time, in a tournament long, long ago, Chelsea played Liverpool for the chance to go to the 2005 European Champions League Final. The first game resulted in a 0-0 tie. 4 minutes into the second game, one Luis Garcia scored a goal for Liverpool (maybe) that knocked Chelsea out of Champions League. Never had I been so happy. Stop.</p> <p>Liverpool winning? Me happy? This was how much I disliked Chelsea during that time. I did not deem it ethical for a rich man to come and pay all kinds of money for a club that he had no relationship with, only that he just wanted to see if he could bring success to any club in the world. I may have been jealous at the time, but I wanted nothing more than for this side to get what was coming to them. During those first years, they purchased Adrian Mutu, Claude Makelele, Arjen Robben, Glen Johnson, Damien Duff, Ricardo Carvalho, Didier Drogba, Mateja Kezman, Joe Cole and Petr Cech among others. If United had that kind of spending power, we could&rsquo;ve gotten Trezeguet, Ronaldinho, Michael Ballack and Gianluca Zambrotta, because we were already a brand. But once Chelsea became a &lsquo;brand&rsquo;, my hatred for them diminished a bit. I have always respected winning organizations, as long as it&rsquo;s done the right way. I still don&rsquo;t believe in Chelsea&rsquo;s process of going through managers once every season, but you can&rsquo;t ignore the results. Any other club besides United, Barca, Madrid and maybe Milan would be satisfied with this decade. 2 domestic titles, 4 cup titles, plenty or runner-up finishes and a wet ground away from winning a Champions League title.</p> <p>I think Chelsea has gone about establishing themselves the right way. It&rsquo;s funny what time will do to people. They have created a strong squad through many transfers, yes, but have built an identity while doing so. John Terry is a Chelsea player. Michael Essien is a Chelsea player. Didier Drogba is a Chelsea player. And so from afar, I grudgingly give my admiration. On Sunday, regardless of the result, there will be no more hatred from this view behind the computer screen. Only respect for a side that can challenge for titles, quality, global support, and community in ways they couldn&rsquo;t have dreamed of just ten years ago. The same respect that I also give to the New York Yankees, Dallas Cowboys, New England Patriots and Real Madrid.</p> true 2009-11-07T05:50:02Z 98045 0 2009-11-07T05:50:02Z http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/overmars_wu/blog/posts/98045 2009-09-07T04:22:00Z Just Another Fan Profile Blog 1335297 2009-09-07T04:22:00Z 8179137 http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/overmars_wu/blog overmars_wu http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/overmars_wu 1405129 WHY DID THEY HAVE TO WIN MY GOD 28 CHAMPIONSHIPS LOL I THINKS THATS ENOUGH.....MAYBE TO MUCH false 2009-11-07T05:43:33Z 98044 0 2009-11-07T05:43:33Z http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/andrew3170/blog/posts/98044 2009-11-07T05:04:46Z Just Another Fan Profile Blog 1405129 2009-11-07T05:04:46Z 9456708 http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/andrew3170/blog andrew3170 http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/andrew3170 875200 <p>This is a BIG ONE!&nbsp; White Out Conditions.&nbsp; I hope the football team is as Fired up as the fans.&nbsp; Penn Stats needs to do two things ro win this game. 1).

I&rsquo;ve played against players who have a shameless disregard of the actual game. Players who kicked at my shins because I cut back with the ball so fast I broke the opposing players hip. On the soccer field everything happens fast. A lot faster than you would expect. I understand how Elizabeth Lambert felt. I didn&rsquo;t just receive kicks on the shins, and jabs in the kidneys, I delivered them too.</p> <p>After playing keeper for 2 years I was moved to sweeper, as captain I needed to be out on the field. Everything happened so fast, just like in football. Your reaction is driven by the adrenaline pumping through your system. You stop thinking clearly.</p> <p>Back to my point.</p> <p>UNM has suspended Elizabeth for over-aggressive plays against a player on the soccer pitch. She has been suspended indefinitely. Cue Mike Locksley. The UNM head football coach committed assault on a fellow coach. He lied about the incident at first downplaying what actually happened. He then took it back and said that maybe it was more than a shoving match. He just grabbed him by the neck. That&rsquo;s all. The pictures would later prove that a punch was in fact landed. The bruise on the neck proved the beastly act which Locksley so hotly denied was really what it was. A thugh in a coach&rsquo;s outfit.</p> <p>What is it UNM? You couldn&rsquo;t suspend Locksley because he is black? Just 4 black coaches in the NCAA, we can&rsquo;t touch him. HA! Way to go UNM, you are so fair. You suspend an athlete indefinitely and let your Gangsta&rsquo; walk free. In fact, the assistant coach involved in the Locksley debacle was so humiliated he decided his job was no longer fun. Would you like to go to work knowing a 700 lb. man wanted to tear your head off? NO. Hell no. I am not a UNM graduate; in fact I am the opposite. I am an NMSU Aggie who hasn&rsquo;t graduated. However if I was somehow affiliated with the University Of New Mexico I would demand answers. In a world where football players get suspended for 1 or two games for worst things, and coaches get fined 5 figures for bad mouthing officials, this hardly seems fair.&nbsp; The 10 day suspension of Locksley is laughable.&nbsp; UNM is what, like 0 wins 6,000,000,000,000 losses, like it mattered if he was on the sideline or not.&nbsp; Hit him where it hurts.&nbsp; His pocket.</p> <p>Suddenly DeWayne Walker and NMSU look like an Urban Meyer at Florida or like a Pete Carroll at USC.
