That's putting it lightly. She honestly comes across incredibly stupid.

I'm all for paying them much more than they are getting paid now. they have the documented success to prove that they should be earning more. i think they are even out-pacing the men's squad in revenues, if i remember reading that right.


They played more games and also counted the tv revenue as 1/2 when doing the figures despite the men commanding higher tv viewing than them.

People are purposely manipulating facts to make the women look good and men’s team bad.

As an example. Say I sold ice cream at a store. My brand sold 30 gallons, blue bell sold 60 gallons. However I only use the amount sold between 9-10 am. During that time my brand sold 10 gallons to Blue Bells 8.

I then go out and tell people I’m out earning blue bell and have the facts to back it up (10 gallons to 8)

That is essentially what they are doing to skewer the facts.

Rapinoe considers herself a "walking protest" to President Donald Trump's policies. 

"I feel like it's kind of defiance in and of itself to just be who I am and wear the jersey, and represent it," said Rapinoe. "Because I'm as talented as I am, I get to be here, you don't get to tell me if I can be here or not. So it's kind of a good 'F you' to any sort of inequality or bad sentiments that the [Trump] administration might have towards people who don't look exactly like him. Which, God help us if we all looked like him. Scary. Really scary. Ahh, disturbing


I would love to know which policy she's referring to.

Look she has her right to protest but if you are protesting made up shite then you're just a fool. I still want the women to win.

Are you honestly stupid or just playing disingenuous here? I never said who cares for one and I said she's not kneeling in response to people melting because she was kneeling.

It isn't the same thing when someone like OP melts about someone kneeling when she isn't. It clearly shows that the OP is severely misinformed and just going off of what people have told him.

For now the 4th time, people who are offended and actually know the facts of the matter aren't the issue.

Eh there's a case to be made with how the War on Drugs hurts the African American community far more but if anything it's an unintended consequence. Regardless the WOD does way more damage to the black communities then any other.

I'm not sure exactly what she's protesting as she seems to be vague about. Frankly I don't care and want to see the girls win it all.

Unlike PT I can still root for our team regardless of what a player thinks

Looks like I'm not alone either
