    Wow.
    I can't believe Elizabeth Lambert wasn't thrown off the field and out of the game sooner. Not necessarily for What she did, but for the officiating that must have turned huge blind eyes to the game at hand to miss such blatant fouls.
    Players talk, ESPECIALLY women. And as a referee, you can tell the exaggerations from the truth. So what happened here?!?
    Alright, I admit, at first I was scared the world was headed on a terror against girls who play hard. But that girl did Not head out on to the pitch against BYU without some prior hair-pulling, come-from-behind-tackling and cleating experience. Lambert knew exactly what she was doing, and she's only apologetic she got caught.
    All she did was retaliate, and, sure, it was a little more than what the opponent dished out, but that's what retaliation's all about. Lambert was continually trying to get the upper hand, or even force her opponent into exacting her own vengeance, then get caught by the ref. Instead, she got caught. It's a risk you take, and it sucks for her.

    So I suppose I'm actually a little sad for her that she got suspended, because those BYU girls weren't saints either, but how many of them will be suspended for their own unsporting behavior? #forthoodmassacre

    Ugh. The Fort Hood story punches me in the heart again. I'm really depressed about the lack of comprehensive and sustained psychiatric care for vets, and if this does indeed turn out to be PTSD related, I will fucking punch a wall.

    A friend of mine was unable to breastfeed her 2nd child due to health issues. She felt horribly guilty and was convinced her child would end up with all kinds of health problems, including bad allergies. I know I'm just a sample size of one, but I have the worst allergies of anyone I know and I was breastfed, so I kept telling her that while breastfeeding is great if you can do it, it does not mean automatic protection against allergies or other health concerns. It's nice to see some data back me up. #forthoodmassacre

    @kansasgirl: Thanks for stating that because my daughter was born with a cleft lip and palate and I tried so hard to breastfeed. I conecentrated too much on breastfeeding that I didn't try to pump which made my milk pretty much disappear quickly. I still have some guilt, but the more I find out about the pros of breastfeeding I realize she's still going to grow up okay. #forthoodmassacre

    @kansasgirl: a friend of mine was born premature and, according to her mother, refused milk. (this happened in a Soviet hospital in the 70s, where apparently the practice was to get the mothers of preemies to pump and then mix the resulting milk before feeding it to the babies - and she wasn't having it.) she worked out just fine... well, brighter than me, anyway.

    breastfeeding is great if it works for the mother and baby, but it does not work for everyone, and that should not contribute to the giant everlasting guilt trip that is motherhood.

    They have the video of Elizabeth Lambert on Deadspin. She does go way too far in retaliation of some chippy stuff, but I don't think she should have been suspended for more than one game at the most. When a football player gets one game for trying to gouge out an opponents eyes, pulling someone to the ground by her pony tail doesn't seem to rate indefinite suspension. #forthoodmassacre

    @token_illiterate_commenter: As a person who worked for a D1 women's soccer team she shouldn't have been suspended but kicked off.

    The hair pulling down to the ground? No excuse. It's not a play for the ball. It's the equivalent of cold-cocking someone which DID happen in Oregon and guess what? Suspended for the whole season.

    It was absolutely unacceptable.

    ETA: The Oregon situation I'm reference refers to the football team incident that began at the beginning of the season.

    @dangerslut: As a person who played and still plays soccer now in rec leagues, I completely agree with you. That hair pull to the ground was completely absurd and the montage of her plays, including a punch to a girl's face when going up for a ball (completely on purpose not in the fight for the ball), and perhaps the most illegal from behind slide tackle I have ever seen are all more than enough for me to support the decision to suspend her. #forthoodmassacre

    @smokyburnout: My first car was a dark blue '92 (first year with airbags!) 240 station wagon named Bertha. Total tank. #twilightvolvo

    @RosiMac and @Elizabooth: I've still got my first, a Dodger-blue '89 named Violet. She gets driven aggressively on occasion, maintained fairly well, and doesn't miss a beat, returning 25 MPG if I don't drive like an idiot. I couldn't have asked for a better first car. #twilightvolvo
