On a related front
Sol Campbell, of the recently eliminated Team England soccer team, on a call that was made against him disallowing a goal:
"If I had been Portuguese, the goal would have been allowed."
Portugal is hosting the Euro Cup and was England's opponent. Having seen the call, it was a no-brainer, and I would hope it would have been made regardless of who the home team was. They protect goalkeepers in soccer, and an English player held the goalie down while the goal was being scored.
Another happy player moonlighting as an oficiating expert. The Swoopes comment has nothing to do with gender or aything else. It has to do with somebody not happy with the calls or no-calls they get. Somehow, this consistently passes as news. To me, it is just more whining. Everybody has a reason the calls don't go their way.
