Thank you to Meg and Laia Cervello for the update regarding the Spanish National Team and their League. Please make this a recurring visit. We all benefit from learning what's happening around the world and how other's are addressing WOSO's woes. I'd also love to hear from those covering WOSO in Central and South America, Africa and Asia.
Really appreciate Theo's extensive knowledge of WOSO, his facility and making connections + how quick and brilliant his mind works. Would LOVE to see him more on the show !
Of note but not mentioned - the team’s reply to the request to extend EVERY deadline by 6 months was basically: this is a delay tactic, fine with us to extend discovery but not the trial (which is most likely going to be tossed out on standing) and that is exactly what the judge did. The team seems fine with the outcome because they were the ones who offered that compromise.
Don't get me wrong, I am here because I am a HUGE women's sports and specifically soccer (football) fan! That being said, I deeply hope that AS WOMEN we are mindful to respect all nature and park spaces as well as local communities. The last thing I want is for women's sports to end up being like men's sports are in a lot of ways. We can do better. Please continue to to cover what happens with this!
The Spanish problem is very, very simple. It's very sad, and very simple and somehow, you miss it with all this complex reasoning and rationalization. The Spanish Civil War with the Fascists of Madrid against the Catalans and the rest was only half a century ago. Furthermore, the Madrid Fascists are still in charge even after losing the dictatorship. So it is with the Federation and their team, Real Madrid. They run the show with their money and their political power. What they don't have, and what they resent the Catalans and the rest of Spain for is the talent to win and to make beauty. This is why Madrid and the Federation are the greatest enemies of their own players: they resent the World Cups and the Euros that, not only Alexia and Jennie and Aitana and Laia Codina and Cata Coll, but also Xavi and Busquets and Iniesta and Fabergas and Jordi Alba and, and, and... unavoidably rub in their faces. Fascist Madrid would rather lose than win with Catalans. And they have no other answer than to sabotage their own national teams. The heroes of Real Madrid and the people that run the Federation are the Galacticos: Zinadine Zidan, Tony Kroos, Carlo Ancelotti, Luka Modric, Ronaldo (be he CR7 or the Phenomenon), even Becks for crissake. Mercenaries. The heroes of Barca are Xavi, Pep, Pique, Alexia, Aitana, even Mapi and Jenni (who were born in Madrid) and people who have become de facto Catalans like Messi or Cruyff or Stoichkov or Dani Alves or Rolfo or Ana-Maria Crnogorčević. For the men, no number of Champions Leagues bought with Galacticos, can overcome the inferiority born of the World Cups and Euros won by Catalans and Basques and, and, and....
Remember the reaction when the first Spanish man in 50 years and the second in history won the Ballon d'Or? Real Madrid players and management were ordered to boycott the ceremony because an ill-mannered Brazilian on their squad wasn't chosen instead.
Oh, yeah, Messi... That "de facto Catalan" that can't speak a word of Catalan nor has lost a bit of his thick Argentinian accent despite living in Spain for two decades LOL
@@georgezee5173 That's the magic of it. As the anthem says, you don't even have to be Spanish to be a Cule. To be a Madrid Mercenary you just have to be paid Galactico money.

Just wondering about the Federation in Spain. Looks like they are the worts but at the same time their teams won the World Cup in many categories.

It is not a crisis.
It is a condition.
