She should leave now, and play for the Chinese instead.

Made what? I think they’ve won the World Cup two or three times.

Me too...and I made a point of going into the Subway where they know my face and told them I wouldn’t be back until they denounce her. They told me: “We can do anything about it.” I told them: “Then it sucks to be you.” I hope more people do the same.

In fairness, the people who work there had no role in deciding about their advertising. The franchisee can complain, but who knows how much that is worth.

I believe she is a rap artist who is a ‘ho’ who play soccer. I also suspect her pronouns are he and they as she is a queer as a three-dollar bill, not to be confused with the rap artist know as Three-Dollah Bill.

If enough franchisees have a lot of people boycotting their stores, it will make a huge difference because Subway’s owners (DeLuca and Buck) will see their franchise fees tank. It is the consumer who must act. The franchisees don’t need to do a thing.

Wasn’t she on the soccer team that lost to a high school soccer team of under-15 year old boys?
