Too bad.

England, you will get another chance to hit the field for the glory of sport and the privilege of representing your country.

- something this US team will never know.

Yeah, this ain't Colin Crapernick, or some NBA commie moron dissing the POTUS. It is a sports team that represents the United States of America in international play. This so-called captain is supported by her coach and teammates and had been responsible for fucking things up by shoving identity politics and a hatred of Trump ahead of international sportsmanship. And instead of using finesse and diplomacy in her actions, she used a blowtorch.

And I agree, I'm not gonna root for a U.S. team that shits on their country, leader, and people.

I think Mr. Freeman speaks for me about this whole topic...




"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

I’ve been hoping they get beat. I can’t get behind them. I mean, they turn the President down but accept an invite from AOC? Get bent. I’m tired of people trying to make my entertainment political. Right wing or left wing, shut up and play/act/sing/etc. I refuse to support entertainment that is made political.

I’m a big soccer fan, but just can’t get behind this team.

I couldn't agree more. I, too, enjoy soccer.

As a consolation, take a look at this:



After 40 years, these guys still get it. Enjoyment and entertainment for the sake of enjoying music.

I know I run a risk because this music may not be your cup of tea. But, as a musician, it is pure entertainment/artistry for its own sake.

Just who are you rooting for? The USA, or the America-hating girls on the team?

It's too bad that some of these women have TDS and lgbqtwxyzmania.

Well, if you're rooting for the USA, it seems to me that you should be hoping to see the US team get a mudhole stomped in their smugnorant ass.

I do struggle with my disgust for Rapinoe and crew and always wanting the USA to win. Frown

I have rooted for the USWNT for decades.

Besides, it's only Soccer. Women's Soccer at that.

A sport that will never catch on here, played by people who don't understand capitalism - ie, to get paid big bucks, you have to pull in big crowds and only women's golf seems to do that with any consistency.

Personally I hope they get beat down, but I really don't care too much one way or the other. Never gonna watch a pro sport where U15 boys could be world champions.

Remember what Brandi Chastain and company had to say about the politics and culture in 1999?

No? Exactly. That team STFU and played soccer with class.

I enjoyed watching them win WITHOUT Rapinoe, and loved how the analysts at halftime said they don't even miss her.

Excited to watch the finale! I will still root for the USWNT but wouldn't be devastated if they lost. I'm just a fan of the sport.

I can't root for the U.S. team, so I'll root for my 2nd country: The Netherlands.

They are saying "hamstring" but I am not buying it. I think that was to save face, she was truly benched for running her mouth, making it about her, and putting her teammates in an awkward position.

I was happy to see Press play and play well. I would love nothing more than if they benched Rapinoe again and won it all. This is going to be her last World Cup and maybe last international appearance with the USWNT, would be great to see her riding the pine.
