I think it's funny that this was front-page news for ESPN, and was aired on the ESPN sportscenter ticker on ESPN radio.
Amazing that she got off so lightly. Wait, this is New Mexico, so I guess it's not amazing, but standard operations for that university.

The argument from Lambert that thuggish play is expected amongst the men, but women should be allowed to play like street hoodlums doesn't sit well with me. Soccer needs to clean up its act, just as basketball does. By definition of the sport, fouls need to be called.

I can think of no level in men's soccer where a slug to the back or a yank on the hair would be permissible. The fact remains, Lambert is a thug and a lousy soccer player. She wants to excuse the inexcusable by using the sexism card and mislabeling her outlandish behavior as rough play. F... her and keep her type out of the game.
