Sorry to interrupt y'all's pearl clutching, but I too was there and many of the players I saw kneeling hail from other countries. Four from England, one each from Ghana, Sweden, Iceland, and one from New York. It's an international team.

So it was moreso generalized disrespect rather than a political statement?

Im not saying i agree with it but is it really worth bringing up anymore? If most of the veterans i see say it doesn’t bother them then it damn well dont bother me.To each his own and let
It be its old. Plus im not ganna be a hypocrite like 95% of ppl who bitch about it while sitting on their asses at home while the anthem is playing.

Based on the government’s actions lately, its not worth standing for.

Never give in to the communist US government, BUT NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR COUNTRY! This is the last free place on earth! Fight like hell for it! Be mad at the government, not the country!

The funny part is they think it’ll make a difference, I guess.

No one gives a shite if the LSU women’s soccer team sits, stands, kneels or pisses during the anthem.

All anyone should care about is wins and losses.

It was actually a pretty good time. Free admission. They gave away free snowballs and beer Koozies until game time. They sell beer. They get pretty physical out there body-checking and tripping. I won't get old man creepy, but the ladies are in top athletic shape. I'd say about 250 people were there for a non-conference game.

It will be ok, you do you and teach your kids how you want them taught and what your beliefs are. That is what makes this country great. You have a choice!

They have their right. You have your right to think it’s stupid. What’s the issue?

I saw on their Facebook page there was one upset parent because there was supposed to be a kids skills Clinic after the game, but no LSU players showed up.

Why support this school? Because of a nostalgic remembrance of a school that no longer exists?

Ask Britney Griner if kneeling for the anthem and saying how bad you have it in the US was worth it now that she's in the Gulag. The same person who was claiming how bad it here is in the US yet she was rich off the free market economy being that she's worth millions. Kinda like how those celebrities talk about wage inequality yet their entire fortune is based on our free market economy with them being the largest example of wage inequality on the set. Fking hypocrites.

From what I've read, Russia is looking to host women's soccer tournaments.

Like The Boat said, the girls are only kneeling because they believe it's still the cool, edgy thing to do. Most of them probably couldn't clearly explain why they did it.
