Megan Rapinoe is Sports Illustrateds Sportsperson of the Year. She is just the fourth woman in the awards 66-year history to win it unaccompanied, a feat that is both a remarkable athletic achievement and a reflection of entrenched gender biases. Rapinoe challenged perceptions of her, of female athletes, of all women. She led her teammates, three months before their tentpole tournament, to sue the U.S. Soccer Federation for equal pay; to declare in advance that they would not visit the White House when they won the Cup; to score 13 goals in a group-stage match against Thailand, without apology.
As for The Pose? It was kind of like a F--- you, but with a big smile and a s--- eating grin, Rapinoe says. You are not going to steal any of our joy.

Choose an America hating, no class, pink haired lezzie.
Thataway to double down on dumb SI...and they wonder why their magazine is about 10 pages thick now.
And Sports Illustrated reaches up out of the toilet bowl to pull the toilet handle and flush themselves down the sewer.
Second choice was Colin Kaepernick.

Gay works every time.
SI will be done in a few years...they laid off 50% of their writers a few months ago...
Uh, I think she meant eating something else.

Real classy broad. Id like to see her pose right after Trump wins re-election.
Why? Because being an ass clown is now some sport thing?
Rapinoe challenged perceptions of her, of female athletes, of all women.
The question is, did she really change perceptions of women athletes for the better? Did she really make a positive social/political statement, by emphasizing lesbianism in women’s sports???? Ditto by making a strong political statement against the president?????
Liberals ruin everything and turn every award into the "Yet Another Award for Being a Leftist Hump" award.
Congratulations latest recipient of major award!

It’s the lezzie Trump hater among other things.
An angry, ugly, hateful, arrogant dyke will go far in promoting the already booming women’s soccer industry. Maybe they could get Eileen Wuornos’ corpse to add some cachet.
The felonious female astronaut is probably figuring SHE would have made it if our domestic enemies hadn’t won the cup.
Surprised the “gals” aren’t objecting to the toxic masculine “cup” trophy.
Disgusting.
We've gone from Lou Gehrig, Ted Williams, Arnold Palmer, Reggie White, Chris Evert to this piece of trash. Sad.
Best President since Lincoln: Donald J Trump
He’s the best. :)
