Soccer’s Megan Rapinoe—famous both for her purple hair and her outspoken ways—slammed Sports Illustrated for its poor track record with women athletes at a ceremony honoring her as its Sportsperson of the Year. “Am I only the fourth woman worthy of this honor in 60 years?” Rapinoe asked the sold-out crowd at the SI event at the Ziegfeld Theatre on Monday night.(Snip) Rapinoe, who helped the American women’s team win World Cup trophies in 2015 and 2019, went on to point out that there were few women writers and even fewer writers of color on SI’s staff.

Why can’t I stop laughing?
First of all there’s no “I” in team.
Soccer football is most assuredly a team sport. So right off the bat this silly award insults the rest of her team because she didn’t win anything on her own.
Anyways these stupid liberals love to give each other awards. Serves em right when one of their own is ungrateful.
Next time we’ll be reading about her is when she gets arrested on a DWI.

She is a perpetually angry "woman". Who would want to be around her?
That's a lousy way to go through life IMO.

I'm outraged, we have young ladies breaking records all over the place, track weightlifting, who deserve it far more. Or do you discriminate against women who are sporting a penis an the other customary adornments?

Next year they will find a transgender male who won a high school girls race to name sports thing of the year.

She reminds me of my ex-wife. Nothing is ever good enough and any perceived or actual slights of the past will be brought up often.

She's right to complain about the low number of women
But at least she's a woman.

So what does that make the high school boys teams that whipped this shrew harpie and her team like red headed step children in scrimmages?
I am happy to see the "oh so woke" get bit hard by the ingrate beast they created though.

This hostile little gender-confused creature is always slamming something or someone. She has serious mental problems, and is someone best ignored.

Such an ungrateful creature. I wonder what the late, great coach Pat Summit (who was Sportsperson of the Year) would say to her?

Who are the other female winners? Rapinoe is not a good example of a wining female athlete as far as I am concerned. She is too self centered a person. She won because both she and her teammates won the Women's World Cup. She did not do it alone. Back to my question - who are the other women who have been named athlete of the year? Has Simone Biles ever won? Just curious.

And it will probably be many years before SI considers a female again.

I love stories like this. Unfortunately, SI will probably come groveling (on their knees) to see what they can do to placate this vicious, angry person.

This disgusting waste of oxygen does not belong on a team that is representing the USA. And in a thumbs up to a Yeep poster on a different site, I'll second the... "I wish the trannies would hurry up and finish the job of destroying women sports once and for all."
These ungrateful females (?) are killing what little support they may have had in our family. Both this purple haired gutter snipe and his sister, colin kaperdick make me sick and I will not have any sport on that disrespects our country and our flag.

The nasty d^ke got the award for no other reason than that she spouts anti-Trump garbage, she’s a lesbian and she dropped the American flag on the ground and then stepped on it.
If SI had any cojones and desire to stay in business, they would have yanked the award right back out of her hands and given it to someone who actually deserves it. They haven’t yet picked up on the new and true adage, “Get woke. Go broke”.

“Am I only the fourth woman worthy of this honor in 60 years?” Rapinoe asked.
Uh, no...Megan, this is a gimme in these times. There are dozens of male athletes who deserve this before you and any of your sisters, present or past. Play against the men and win...otherwise, as some say, wash my shirt.

That'll teach SI to think twice before being nice to her again. If they'd done their homework they might have found that her second sport is gymnastics, where her specialty was Biting the Hand that Feeds You, with a half twist.
