Seems like such a shame for such lovely ladies, who only think of others.

Maybe time for the transgender World Cup?

ESPN and Yahoo! Sports are sad, very sad,

It’s the year or Barbie, the blondes won.If it weren’t Rapinhoe, I’d feel bad for the rest of the team. Still when then can’t respect the anthem or country they represent, I’m glad to see them elimated.

The US Team did have the most chances and for the most part Sweden never really had a serious chance to score, it looked like if they were still playing Sweden would never score.

The US team had multiple chances to win it on penalty kicks but Rapinoe and two other players blew their chance and the winning Swedish kick was initially blocked and then trickled in by a fraction of an inch, only an instant replay showed that it went in, it was really close, but Sweden wins and the US team will be flying home tomorrow.

2 openly scissoring loud lesbians missed penalty shots in another barn burner of a 0-0 women’s soccer match.

All 1,287 US viewers are inconsolable…
