I was talking about Gregg’s claims that he was blackmailed.

No you weren't. You responded to someone talking about Gregg kicking someone when he was 18 and you said "Oh c'mon Gregg was an adult... it's public record"

I feel like we need to maybe nuke the USSF and start a new one where everyone isn't related/connected closely.


I want to come back to this bc I think it’s really important. We’re talking about a powerful organization with people who know each other REALLY well. They are friends and know a lot about one another. It’s hard to know when to switch hats from friend to professional, especially when you someone is talking to you in confidence.

I don’t think Gio’s mom intended to blackmail anyone. I think she was upset and made a point bc she knows Gregg better than anyone. Of course no organization can hear that and DO nothing. They have to cover their arse, and I think Gregg is being melodramatic about it. Does it suck? Yeah. I hate it for him, but he didn’t deny it. You never know when you have to pay for your past. Be an adult and take responsibility

And that's the problem, you're letting your preconceived notions of Gregg cloud your judgment when the evidence that are available are pretty straight forward.


He abused his girlfriend in college.
He only owned up to it after thirty years and did it in a way that I found to be very self-serving. (“as a team we emphasize integrity, accountability, and growth. Those aren’t just principles we instill within the team - it’s how I live my life”). And in the statement it seems to me was deceitful about when the Reynas spoke to US Soccer.
He spoke to a roomful of people about Gio and pretended to think it would not be reported on.
I don’t keep a running list of things that make me think he’s a POS. Those are all just in the last month.

Bruh he kicked his girlfriend when he got mad at her in college. He is lucky that he’s only getting called on it after he has been so successful. This isn’t a he said-she said jilted lover thing.

No. I started my answer saying my bad I thought the cops were called. Then I quoted you saying why should we not believe Gregg. I said bc he claimed blackmail and you said no, he didn’t, that the independent investigation said that. Then, I quoted the part of an article where Gregg says it looks like he was blackmailed

When you first said "it was public record" you weren't responding to me at all, you were responding to someone talking about Gregg kicking his wife.

It's ok to admit you didn't know there wasn't a police report, just stop doubling down when the proof is literally a page before this.

Huh? He went to therapy 30 years ago. I'd call that owning up. I don't think he's under any obligation to just blurt that out to the public when its long been resolved and his wife and her wishes are involved.

I don't think you know what you're saying then, other than anything bad that happens to Gregg is ok in your book.

There’s a difference between losing your job bc you said a player acted retarded and losing your job bc you beat the shite out of your girlfriend

Danielle Reyna is a piece of shite.

Let me see if I have this straight: Gio Reyna, a 20 year old man, was unhappy with his playing time so he went crying to mommy and daddy. That's strike one; adults don't handle problems like that. Instead of encouraging him to work harder and have a better attitude, his shitbag parents decided to hint at blackmailing the coach, who is Claudio's best friend and was the best man at his wedding.

The Reynas are the pieces of shite in this situation. They should be shamed into oblivion. In modern society, she knew where this would lead and she knew exactly what she was doing. Anyone defending her here is an awful person.

And if Danielle came out with this info because she wanted to support abuse victims, fine, fair play.

But we both know that's why she didn't come out with this.

That's bullshite.

You’re guilty of assuming her intent. Just like we assume about Gregg. That cuts both ways

So we have to verbally declare bankruptcy but not assault. This country’s laws are ridiculous.

Her reasons why disprove any allegations of blackmail without any evidence to the contrary.

She said she didn’t bring it up to hurt Gregg. She said she was comparing the two’s mistakes when they were the same age
