Megan Rapinoe, star forward for the women’s U.S. national soccer team, seems to hate the world. She goes around with a scowl permanently etched into her weathered face. Though an outstanding soccer player, Megs has it in her head that she’s getting cheated, and that the cheater is Donald Trump. So she refused to go to the White House if the team wins the women’s World Cup.
Trump then extended an invitation to the team whether they win or lose and of course Megan took it with ill grace. The girl has no graces, only grimaces.

Perpetually angry seems to be a common thing nowadays. It is made far worse by watching the news and believing what one sees there. I have backed WAY off on news and guess what? Life is good. I am reasonably healthy, reasonably happy, I have tons of love in my life and even a rudimentary purpose. For news I come here and read maybe one of ten stories, and a couple other sites. No more 24/7 news feed.
This guy should do the same. He looks really angry.

Being on the U.S. National Soccer team is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and not very many people achieve something like that so you would think she would be smiling rather than a scowl.

While I am not a fan of this Megan lady this team would beat any high school soccer team anytime.They do produce as equal money as the men’s team. They just showed the stats the other day. The angry dude should get his facts straight.

Why would any American choose to be part of this bitter, childish self loathing?

#3 I will also add that they are tougher than men who play this sport professional and flop all over the field if their opponent comes within 2 feet of them. The men are drama queens.

When I saw her defiance when the American Anthem was being played, I turned off the TV and have not watched a single second of the women's soccer World Cup. I don't have time for whiney, self important, constantly mad people. Who wants to be around that?

Is this the one when, the whole team embarrassed themselves while beating Thailand (?), stood out with her display of idiocy?

Does Megan speak for the entire soccer team? Apparently so. I haven't heard a squeak from any of the rest of them. The team has to realize that Megan has completely destroyed their team off the field.

The only control we over this situation is not to watch. Pulling for or against means nothing, low ratings hurt.

Expecting equal pay for "equal" work is a typical leftist attitude. Except, when you look at "equal" it's not really so equal. Just because you both play soccer doesn't mean there is equality between men and women. There is not even equality between men. By Megan's calculation, and the Left's, all soccer players should be paid the same. They are all playing soccer, right?
Of course the problem is that top players lose the incentive to work as hard as they have to, to BECOME the outstanding players they can be. If I am going to be paid the same, no matter the effort I make or ability I develop, why bother. In fact, why play soccer professionally at all, besides for the fun of it, if I know there are other jobs that pay me better than the leveled pay for all soccer players.
The stupidity of the women's lib movement is that women are NOT going to be equal to men in all things. They will be comparatively worse in some things, better in others, and equal in some. That is, to Megan's anger, because men and women are different and have different strengths. That is even true in comparing different women and different men. We are NOT all the same. That is true even if it ticks you off.

Demure, serene, attractive and considered in her opinions (heh),
#6 Rapinoe probably punched a hole in the drywall when fellow
angry lesbian Hillary got squashed by Trump in the election.

Megan is exhibiting the classic symptoms of a person who believes she is a man stuck in a woman's body and can’t get out.

Most people had never heard of this woman until she decided to make a spectacle of herself with a dramatic attempt to disrespect her own country. I don’t care what her reasons are. We had to endure 8 very long years of Obama and not once did I fail to stand for our national anthem. I am very weary of these over privileged celebrities and athletes who hate our country. Get out.

Like the kneelers in the NFL this nitwit has damaged the brand, the team and the love of the sport. I just wonder how the rest of the team feels at having this piece of garbage steal the limelight from their accomplishment. Too bad for them, that like the NFL they will suffer while she gets a book deal or maybe a job with MSNBC or CNN. I think the coaches would be wise to toss these people no matter what their talent level is, it is not worth paying the price of damage to the overall image and love of the game. There is always someone out there who can be better than she is and will appreciate the country who gave her the opportunity to succeed.

The last two words can be addressed to every millennial, every liberal, and everyone who has an axe to grind “against the man.”
Grow up, be a part of the solution, by being a success and a good example to others. The example of this person, is not a good role model for how to appreciate all the benefits of a free country.

Really Lucianne team? Rooting for France because you don’t like what one of the players says? That seems like a tremendous overreaction.

I disagree with the author trying to put women athletes on the same level as men as far as performance. Of course they are not equal. But why compare them? These women are exceptional in what they do. Because they love to compete in a sport and excel at, then some think they must be gay? Some may be, others not. These women don't make the same amount of money as men because the don't bring in the viewers and that spells dollars. I just find it so interesting that some men are so afraid to acknowledge that women are good at something men have always been known for. So what, recognize them for the achievement on their own level, why compare it to men. Will they be stronger or faster? No. But there are some incredible women athletes and to not recognize that indicates a prejudice. There are loud mouth anti-everything jerks in every walk of life. Ignore this little twit, but don't take away the achievements of all women athletes because of her.

Don't let your anger at Rapinoe's personal displays unfairly cloud your judgment and support for the rest of this team. Just watch how proudly the rest of them sing our national anthem . I say this as the father of two former US National Team members (in other sports). Having been among them and their teammates, it's thrilling to see not just their incredible dedication and hard work but also their inspiring patriotism and pride in wearing the "USA" uniform. Rapinoe is the sad exception, not the rule.
Go USA!

The subject of soccer aside, I just want to point out that #16’s second paragraph is a perfect description of why socialism/communism never works.

I despised Barack Obama but like #21, I would never disrespect my country's anthem or flag. Just another spoiled lefty who thinks being a nasty (w)itch will make people admire her. Forget that. I have never pulled for a French team in my life but there is a first for everything.

The attitudes and actions of people like Rapinoe make me ill. Hate to say it, but a defeat today might be worth the life lesson for this ungracious, obnoxious, loose-lipped liberal and some of her teammates. Never thought I would say this, but "Vive la France!!!"

All I know (or care) about women's soccer is that it has kept me from enjoying my tutelage from Judge Judy for lo these many weeks. (I am doing a vast study into women who live with men and purchase cell phones or automobiles for them.) IMO men athletes and women athletes should STF out of each other's business.

It looks like Rapinoe showed what she is made of to all those homophobic mysognists who wished for a French win! Go USA!

Don't even want to look at her anymore. Surprised Rosie hasn't proposed to her yet.
Burn her passport. Surely, if she hates this country, she won't want any greenbacks either.

Routing against something, anything American is a new one to me. Must be how the Trump-hating, whining, sore loser Dems/Leftys feel most of the time, I guess.
