They got their asses beat again by the Swedish team. I hope they never again get a chance to stand on any podium of victory, ever. again! | |||

I won't flame you because I've always rooted for US athletes. At the same time, there are two countries within our borders right now. They don't represent the US one even if that's what's printed on their uniforms. | |||

Hopefully Sweden keeps winning so the US finishes second in Group G. Then they will have to play the Group F winner (Brazil or the Netherlands) in the knockout round. Either of those teams stand the best chance of winning and knocking the US out of the competition. Harshest Dream, Reality | |||

Inspiring: US Women's Soccer Team To Boycott Scoring Goals Until Racism Is Defeated July 21st, 2021 - BabylonBee.com TOKYO—People were stunned after the U.S. women's soccer team lost to Sweden in the Olympics this week by a score of 3-0—until the team revealed they are boycotting scoring any goals until racism is defeated. "Yeah, we didn't score any goals against Sweden last night, but that was totally on purpose," said star player and beloved activist Megan Rapinoe. "This isn't the time to score goals—when America is still racist. We totally could have beaten Sweden but we decided as a team that no goals will be scored until complete equality has been achieved in America. Also, we demand a hefty raise." Onlookers were stunned during the second half of the game when Rapinoe dribbled the ball all the way to Sweden's unprotected goal and whispered "This is for you, people of color," before kicking the ball straight into the air and running headfirst into the goalpost. "This may be one of the most powerful performances in the history of sports," said Teen Vogue's sportswriter who has never watched sports. The U.S. Women's team is demanding to remain in the Olympic tournament and promises to continue its streak of zero goals.

I'd like to know from anyone who watched the match if the two countries' National Anthems were played before the match and what did the team do if it was played. "Even if the world were perfect it wouldn't be." ... Yogi Berra | |||

They stood during the anthem and then took a knee before the kickoff for about 10 seconds. According to the media.  Soccer players kneel to start new era of Olympic activism “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

Thanks Bama, glad to see they at least respected our flag and anthem. Some of them have taken a knee during the playing of it in the past and I just wanted to know. I'd be willing to bet all the soccer teams will do the take a knee thing throughout the games. "Even if the world were perfect it wouldn't be." ... Yogi Berra | |||

I do know it. And find it more reliable than The NY Times or Washington Post. Guess I should have gone with my first inclination… Today, schadenfreude is spelled “US Women’s Soccer” NRA Life Member - "Fear God and Dreadnaught" | |||

It seems that in actuality they are NOT the U.S. Women's Soccer Team, but rather the 'US Womens' Soccer Team...  ____________________________________________________________ If Some is Good, and More is Better.....then Too Much, is Just Enough !!

Personally, I hope they never win another game again. And I never say that about any team, not even the Bears. Fuck them. | |||

It would be fun to watch the outrage of Rapinoe and the fans of women's soccer to have the entire team replaced with more capable trans-peoples, because trans- counts for more points than just being a woman, or even a lesbian, so the wokesters wouldn't have any ground to stand on based on their rules of the diversity game. | |||

| An investment in knowledge pays the best interest |
One can always ask a high school boys soccer team to wear blouses… we know they would play better and end up winning the whole thing. | |||
