I wonder how long before some country gets a few “trans women” on the team and starts dominating women’s soccer?

I too wonder if this was the last “womens” World Cup. It is a shame Rapinoe and others wanted to interject personal politics into what should have been a feel good moment for the U.S. and an inspiration to girls everywhere. They were a truly amazing team with a wide open attacking style and unselfish play on the field, but she exhibited very selfish behavior individually off the field removing the spotlight from her team and their accomplishments.

Politics has so poisoned our nation that many people have become completely unhinged. A bad combination with an army of reporters sticking microphones in their faces and asking loaded questions hoping they say something stupid and “political.” The majority of us are sick of it. I would have loved for my two daughters to have watched this team, but I steered them away lest they pick up the wrong “role models.”

FWIW - I think there are some solid young ladies on the team, but with our media (to include sports media) we don’t hear much from them as they don’t fit the desired interview goals.

Regardless, while it is impossible to not admire the product on the field they would have been even better had they kept politics out of it. That is a shame.
