    I heard the purple haired gal scores on her own team members...
    At least I'm housebroken.

    Not all the team are liberals.

    Flexing on England before Independence Day was a nice touch.

    congrats to the US Women's National Team. World Cup Champs. Its kind of a big deal.....


    Now the country has to figure out where they stand on this issue. Once the ratings come out, you may find this the most watched soccer game of all time in the States. I have mixed emotions about what this team is trying to do OFF the field. ON the field, its hard not to think of them as one of the best women's teams of all time. We shall see how far this goes but watch out because I have a feeling we are not done hearing from this team.
    Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.

    It's a commie sport and suddenly everyone is shocked the people who play it are commies themselves?

    Y'all need fishin' rods and wives/families you actually want to spend your time with.

    Who actually waste a day watching this stuff? Seriously?

    It sucks it has to be so political

    I watched because I wanted to watch my country's team compete for a world championship. And Alex Morgan is a badass. I did appreciate purple hair not kneeling, but I still don't like her one bit.

    At least one of the Gals picked it back up. Props to her for that act of Patriotism.

    I didn't watch them this year largely because of Rapinoe and what she was allowed to do and say.

    This is an interview with Abby Wambach from 8 years ago...she could have claimed the same complaints that Rapinoe does but instead she loved American and understood Americanism...that was the team I supported...

    You all are starting to some like a bunch of whiney-ass Trump haters.

    I'm surprised y'all haven't complained about Melania Trump going bra-less during the 4th celebration.

    and rh, I get it and we have talked about it and I still have issues BUT.....I wont let rapinoe ruin this for me.

    I support the US soccer teams. Will I support rapinoe as she bashes this country and leads "an alternative lifestyle?" No, not directly. I wont pull against her, but I sure cant support her. Its an interesting conundrum.

    I get that but the US Soccer Federation is allowing this...that's where changes need to be made...

    Interestingly a Christian player turned down an offer from the USWNT because she didn't support some of the things the team was standing for. I'm not commenting on that cause. I am saying that Rapinoe, if she didn't believe in the things the team represents, should have done just like Jaelene Hinkle and not joined the team in the first place.

    Shit, they need to be paid WAY more than the men do. They’ve won more World Cups than the men have qualified for.

    Soccer = Commie Con

    Surprised those nerds don't dress up like their favorite failed communist or 3rd world dictator and act out violent coups and such while going "pa-chew! pa-chew! I got you, you freedom loving free thinker. Now into the showers for some political cleansing!"

    By all means give them equal pay if they can draw the same crowds both on and off the field year round that the men's teams do. It's not just the women's world cup that draws in the money. Who has ever seen a women's soccer game(not national team) ever televised? It would be the same as women who play golf crying for equal pay. At least their tournaments are broadcast every week. However, if you look at their crowds on Sunday, the final day of the tournament, they are nowhere near the attendance that men's practice rounds or early tournament rounds are. Now this isn't totally the womne's fault that nobody is there, but until the interest is there which in turn brings the revenue they shouldn't be paid the same.
