Megan Rapinoe & The US Soccer Team

[CagleMtnVol]

See this is one of the things I disrespect her for. A couple of years go she successfully campaigned for equal pay as the Men's team and then a couple of weeks back she said she would support transies being on the Women's team.

She's insane with liberal ideology!

 

[volbeast33]

Freedom of speech, furthermore the entirety of the Constitution has become a tidal creek (ebbs and flows), a wardrobe to put on when it fully benefits one side over the other.

who is going to jail? Freedom of speech doesn’t mean that you won’t piss anyone with what you have to say…. It also doesn’t guarantee that you will be liked or admired. There are plenty of American teams that don’t get overwhelming support…. This women’s team is just a very unlikable group.

Rapinhoe is all about using her position on the team to promote HER Brand:

Social Justice Warrior

Homosexual

Victim

 

[2EastTnVols]

And yet we hate all of them and celebrate their failures because she's opinionated, wanted better pay (the horror), gay, and has pink/blue hair.

I don't hate any of them, including her. She's just a big distraction without the skills to be worth keeping around. Time to move on.

 

[Sin City Vol]

Politics over country is why many Americans are enjoying her full send 20 rows deep to lose it. Less time kneeling and more time working on penalty kicks. Be ready for the moment.

Yea the woman has won 2 World Cup titles, a couple of gold medals but sure

The USWNT's Loss is a Perfect Sendoff for Megan Rapinoe

The United States Women’s National Team’s embarrassing World Cup run has come to an end, and it couldn’t be a more appropriate sendoff for the retiring Megan Rapinoe.

It is an appropriate send-off for Rapinoe, who turned the last several years of the USWNT’s success into a partisan parade for liberals. She made her contempt for America clear by taking part in performative anti-American protests during the national anthem. She is a hypocrite who demands that others “listen more and talk less” while she whines and complains about “equal pay” while getting all of her facts wrong.

The USWNT's loss is a perfect sendoff for Megan Rapinoe

Like I said, poetic justice.

 

[OrangeBoro]

I really can't believe some of these comments. This team played poorly, no cohesive action. But this is not the team that whined and bit**ed for two years. Yes, rapinoe was there, but barely. I can't believe, especially on a Tennessee board, that so many root against the US. Politics aside, this is your country. Have some pride in that. Who effin cares what happened before.

Not directed to those that don't GAS about soccer. Only to those little minds that put politics over national pride. I miss the days of USA chants.

It’s not a war, it’s a sport. And a boring sport most people don’t give a damn about. All that energy and time to end 0-0. I couldn’t careless if they won or lost but I did take some pleasure in seeing that loud mouth miss

Womens "professional" soccer...its like watching a really bad U-12 boys team play another really bad U-12 boys team. I saw some of the Japanese game the other day..their goals...thats bush league play.

Womens world cup and gold medals.....

That isn't saying much.

Half the people who say **** like this love CFB and hate the NFL, even tho the worst NFL team would beat the best CFB team 100-0.

 

[GreyWolf1129]

It's over. The USWNT is over. She's over. Karma. Let it go. Like a fart in an elevator...sometimes you just have to ride it out and wait on the stink to work itself out of the picture.

Now we can look forward to ESPN hiring Rapinoe as a soccer analyst / political activist / social justice advocate. Just when you thought Jemele Hill and Stephen A. were as bad as it could get...

The 2023 CFB season literally cannot get here fast enough.

Go Vols.

Could a high school football team beat the worst NFL team?

No?

Oh..that happens to womens soccer All. The. Time.

Including the Swedish and American teams that just played.

The US women lost 12-0 to Wrexam. If I started jogging 5 miles a day in 6 months I could make Wrexams roster.

During my peak soccer fitness I could have beat the US womens team by myself. Give me a goalie and a center mid and its a clean sheet for my team as well.

I think it sends a striking message to many of our adversaries that our athletes can openly protest their government. And even more importantly to their oppressed citizens. Who find this stuff online

Kneeling or ignoring the anthem isn't going along with a forced show of patriotism but it's hardly a protest against the government.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

ICYMI .....

 

[EasternVol]

Nice article. When challenged on her hatred for her country she clarifies that she just hates the slavery part of it. And that makes her very American.

So she's not up on history or current events.

 

[EasternVol]

Did you want her to say losing?

'Representing the country' would have been a diplomatic answer.

 

[n_huffhines]

Wait, what?

 

[ButchPlz]

Everyone lost when they allowed bullies like Rapinoe to claim women's and men's soccer are the same sport.

It's like making everyone pay Corvette prices for a Matchbox car.

 

[EasternVol]

Wait, what?

What about our current Administration would those who kneel or ignore the anthem not like?
Edit - this isn't against those who kneel or ignore. That's their right and I can emphasize with them.

The government is bigger than POTUS. I believe the kneelers were primarily protesting the CJS. Is anybody still kneeling?

CJS? It's been a long time since i've seen anyone kneel but it's also been a long time since I watched the start of sporting event. Folks here were complaining about kneelers...
