Eh….infect them with bowling. I remember that episode of Cheers where it turned out that Diane was the best bowler in the bar — she had to take a phys ed class in college and that was the only sport that didn’t involve sweating.
I wonder what Abby, Peri and Inez would think of this situation. After all, they’re hardcore US Women’s National Soccer Team fans and would do anything for them to win first place.
By the way, I played soccer on my high school’s first ever team back in the late sixties. Even then, I didn’t care about it much. I saw it as an activity, not a sport. I played it because I wasn’t big enough to play football.
Defense wins championships, but offense puts butts in the seats. Unless soccer finds a way to increase scoring – and getting rid of the goaltender position would go a long way toward doing that – it will never crack the top three in the United States.

Maybe get everyone healthy. Three leading scorers were out with injuries.

As I mentioned a few days ago, who cares about soccer?
Maybe the parents of the players. Maybe.

I would suggest a cattle prod, but some might think of that as inhumane

I agree with the caller. So glad I don’t live near pickleball courts.
