>>Just last week, I read about a women’s pro-soccer team saying that they are done with the kneeling and are ready to move on from that public expression.
Orange Man is out of office
A coed at Auburn University said that she went to the January 6th Washington, DC pro-Trump/anti-fraud rally with two Atlanta United pro soccer players. So now I’m thinking that maybe soccer players are more patriotic than NFL players.
How about Canada? Are they doing the same crap there? I don’t know either way?
F*ing Commies.
And I have not watched a USMNT or USWNT game in the past year and will continue not to watch!
Hey man, in my Drum Corps days, we had a couple of big ol' boys in our Contra section. One was actually called 'Buddha'.
I was a skinny dude, but we would challenge other corps to a Sumo match. They always declined, so we won by default.
That's how crazy we were. I still retain some of that craziness. 8~)
You may be right. Because of Trump. Maybe they really are just that shallow.
It was as though somebody flipped a light switch.
Clap ON....Clap OFF!
Soccer.
This is not just about US women's national soccer team...This also applies to US men's national soccer team...
Now Federation has no problem with a male or a female player kneeling during National Anthem...
There are some US men's national team members who have no problem with kneeling...
Landon Donovan...He was a great player who was in the US Men's national soccer team for many years...Many months ago, he was happy that Federation stopped requiring players to stand during national anthem...
“I think any human being should have the right to express themselves in any way they want,” he said. “There is power in U.S. Soccer making a statement like that and I was for it."
Not watching anyway guess I’ll miss the kneegroes.
[[“I think any human being should have the right to express themselves in any way they want,” he said.]]
OK- I think you sir, are scum, and a disgrace to our nation, if you kneel on the national stage and disrespect this nation in front of the world—
Keep Our Own Kids Safe
Is that Sean Penn?
Then why not choose to protest supremacy or inequity or whatever during the 99.9% of the day when the national anthem isn't playing? This is OBVIOUSLY about disrespecting the flag. C'mon, man!
Well, imo men’s isn’t any more exciting or entertaining than weomen’s.
I don’t want to offend you, as you seem to be a soccer fan, but growing up in my town - a huge baseball town - soccer was known as the sport for kids who couldn’t hit curve balls.
Soccer, is that when you hit a girl or some foreigner’s sport? Sorry. It’s both.
but growing up in my town - a huge baseball town
Same here. BTW, when I last attended a baseball pro baseball game which admitedly was many years ago, anyone sitting for the NA would be castigated by those around them.
Where are the current day Rick Mondays??
