I’ve read that all the members of the team took a knee once they were on the field. But at least a few of the gals stood for the national anthem.

The heavily favorite U,S. women's soccer team was humiliated in its 3-0 loss to Sweden in the first round of the 2020 Summer Olympics. Many people, even conservatives, lamented that and hope the team can recover and go on to win a medal if not the gold. Not me. Winning the gold would only give a high visibility platform to America-haters like the team's captain, the woke Megan Rapinoe. The corporate media would make hay out of that like you wouldn't believe. This is the last thing the America needs.
But what about team members who do not ascribe to Rapinoe's negative view of America? Well, as Gus McCrae (Robert Duvall) said to his friend Jake Spoon (Robert Urich) as he was about to hang him in the iconic scene from Lonesome Dove, "You know how it works Jake. You ride with an outlaw, you die with an outlaw." Jake pleaded with Gus for his life saying he himself didn't do any killing. He was riding with the outlaws just to get through the territory. It didn't matter. Gus hung Jake.
Does it sound harsh not to wish the U.S. women's soccer team well? Maybe it is, just as hanging Jake was harsh. But if there is any hope of saving our constitutional republic, conservatives have to learn how to play hardball. This means every time and everywhere a leftist initiative shows its ugly head, it should be stepped on or at the very least resisted. It also means learning to anticipate when a seemingly inconsequential leak (success for the women's soccer team) in a dam can lead to flood. We have to learn how to play smart.

All concerned with the Olympics are corrupt.
Period.
The fact that our joke of a US Olympic Committee has not kicked these low IQ smarmy little turds out of teams is apt proof of sentence one.
As such, give the Olympics as much regard as one would give CNN. Or Dorkama the Muslim eunuch quota boy.
Well, those girls couldn’t score during the game; but I figure they all scored afterward, in the showers and hotel rooms.
They licked their opponents.
See the Bill Whittle video posted above...on this very subject. Personally, it is absolutely the ONLY reason I would ever watch the Olympics-to see their faces smashed in their Leftism.
Well said.
Princess Purple Hair will do something stupid no matter what happens
ROFLOL!
Now that right there..
Megan Rapinoe, proving that Andy Warhol might have been wrong; these people are famous for a lot longer than he predicted. It seems like we have been subjected to her for a couple of years (feels longer). Surely, her time is about up.
Today’s Olympic team is more of a laughing stock than the old East German “women’s” team. I do feel for those that trained hard for years to get there, only to be obscured by woketards and letter people.
I’ve read that all the members of the team took a knee once they were on the field. But at least a few of the gals stood for the national anthem.
Is that pink haired guy still on the team?
Im middle-aged and I grew up wanting USA to win and succeed at everything internationally.
I am highly conflicted and its a real destruction of my world-view not to want success for people wearing the US flag, like the woman’s soccer team. But here we are nonetheless.
LOL, I see what you are saying.
I hope this Olympic team loses out because of how poorly they represent our country.
Go Sweden!
Note what’s written on the shirts in the picture from post #12.
ah yes, wearing Black Lives Matter shirts. They can go (blank) themselves. I hope they lose. I really hope the USA team gets beaten.
they do not support America
i do not support them
