An American Patriot should never root against a USA National team. I hate Rapino too but I certainly don’t want to see the USA lose to anyone. I keep rooting for Rapino to break a leg or an ankle so she ends her career that way. A little karma to go with progressivism. But never should we root against our Team USA no matter how many problems we have with some of the players. The team, the team, the team is all that matters.
I found myself rooting against the US Men’s Basketball team. How can I root for a bunch of thug millionaires who hate whitey?
Yes, I root against the team that HIJACKED our country’s name. If this were war and not sports, the captain would be considered a traitor to his/her country and subject to captial punishment at court marshal.
A little extreme example, but since this is sports there is no court martial. If there was some public pushback against Rapinoe’s selfish, pardon the oxymoron, “stance” on the issue of the national anthem by the members of the team, or preferably the team management, then I would root for the U.S. The right to First Amendment privileges ENDS when one is protesting against the enabler of the First Amendment in the first place.
Go England!
These players are not American.
Heck I wonder if the team even consider themselves as American. If they do, then they are probably embarrassed to admit it.
Likewise, I am embarrassed that they are representing America.
Karma is a b!tch and I hope that it comes back to bite them on the rear
It's a bloody soccer game!
Perspective, everybody.
Usually I could not care less who wins an athletic contest (unless maybe if I had a friend or relative on the team) but in this case, being that this toxic woman is blathering her anti-American filth, I have no problem rooting for England.
