Not as long as she is a member of the US National Team.

"She’s entitled to her free expression."

Unless it is conservative expression.

Agree totally. Rooting for the team not individuals. Also I believe Soccer USA the governing body should step in when the WWC is completed and tell the the team that no signs of disrespect towards the President whom ever it is, will be tolerated and to stop talking your personal politics while wearing the red white and blue, it also will not be tolerated.

I was thrilled to not have to look at that POS yesterday. Disgusting that they even allow her on the team.

Sheepishly have the “HONOR” of being on “THE USA SOCCER TEAM”. She should be removed and sent home!

I agree-she does not share my values.

I want her team to lose. It is not my team.

“I actually enjoyed watching the girls play until I heard about this. Now, I am really rooting for them to lose.”


Yup!

Thing is, when Kap asked Nike not to release the Betsy Ross Flag shoes, he jumped from police brutality to Anti-American sentiment which is what the whole kneeling protest was actually about. Now everyone knows...

The girls, yes. They worked hard for their moment in the Sun.

They sure as Hell don’t deserve to have this angry dyke mess it up for them.

Well... Yeah, indeed.

Too arrogant and stupid to recognize that she’s messing up the moment for the whole TEAM.

But then again, that’s part of being an arrogant, narcissistic, selfish assh*le to begin with, isn’t it...

Here’s the thing: I don’t care that she’s queer. That doesn’t bother me, it’s a free country, and people are free to be what they want. Enjoy your life, it’s way too short.

BUT...but but but but but but but but but but...

SHE chose to make this moment a political thing,
SHE chose to start a fight where there was none,
SHE chose to become Asshole Of The Month - AND ruin the moment for the rest of her Team, a group of girls that worked their asses off to achieve this moment.

So she can shove it up her arse sideways now; she deserves whatever scorn comes her way.

The team doesn’t, but that’s HER fault. She’s nothing more than a selfish, arrogant, narcissistic buttwad.

And I’m being nice, here.

RE Kap:

THAT clown was always that way; the “police Brutality” thing was the “Cause of THAT Moment”, nothing more.

He’s a third-rate, semi-talented, out of work and unhirable has-been/never-was football player who made himself into the Radioactive Douchebag du Jure and unemployable.

I’ll never buy a Nike product as long as they associate with that assclown. It won’t bother them, and it won’t bother me either.

As for Kapernick... he’ll fade into obscurity and mediocrity soon enough.
