For people who think that the problem with the US women’s team is just Rapinoe, this should disabuse you. She accepted Schumer’s invitation on behalf of the TEAM. There are no conservatives on this team. It starts from the top. The team decided to wear rainbow numbers a year ago during pride month. When a Christian team member declined to wear the jersey, she was never invited back to camp with the national team. However, when Rapinoe started disrespecting the American flag, she was told by her coach to cut it out. She continued. What happened to her? She was named team captain! Alex Morgan said she would not accept an invite to the White House.
Has any player dissassociate themselves from these partisan witches? Nope. Silence means consent. The entire team is partisan hacks. They represent only half the country and despise the half who voted for Donald Trump. It’s heartbreaking for a former fan like myself who was a fan of the team before they became popular. But I do not support people who despise me.

You know this is a bunch of misfits and losers when they have political figures publicly supporting them over their "equal pay" idiocy.

If they were responsible, competent adults they'd simply refuse to play for the USWNT unless the national team met their demands for compensation. They are making this a political issue because they have no leverage. The USWNT has no reason to meet their demands because there are probably 500 other female soccer players in the U.S. who are capable of doing just as well in international tournaments as the ones on the field now.

What does Megan Rapinoe do if she's not playing soccer? She'd probably be working at a Starbucks somewhere, and getting paid a hell of a lot less than what she earns on the USWNT.

if they are a democrat- they can do whatever they want- they are above rules and regulations- only republicans are expected to obey rules- or else all hell breaks loose

So you are exercising the grammar rules exception? You left yourself wide open.

As a percentage of league revenue, the women are paid more than the men. 13% vs 9%.

TV ratings for this years women’s world cup soccer were down 50% over the previous world cup.

Let her keep speaking for everyone and we won’t have to be bothered with it on TV in the future.

Why does the Women's Soccer team need an invite to Washington D.C., anyway? Many of us do not care about their win. GASP! We care about those young scientists who work in labs day after day seeking answers to cancer, debilitating neurological and others kinds of diseases and conditions which make life miserable for so many. We care about average people working two jobs to support a family, we care about single mothers, forced into the workplace because of the destruction of two-parent families in our culture and many other issues. Most of us like sports, but we do not suffer the delusion that sports figures could possibly save us in some kind of horrible health or national emergency. Then reality sets in and puts people and their talents into the proper perspective. As for me and my house, we do not endow the Women's Soccer team with any more significance than the homeless person out there in California, under the headquarter buildings of Big Tech, towering above the street where they live. May God help us, during this most prosperous time in the history of the world, not to fall into delusions which will literally drag us into false thinking which will ruin hope for the future.

Rapinoe has the same snarling self-righteousness as David Hogg, but without the charm.

‘And we ought to pay attention to this not just once every four years during the World Cup, but year-in and year-out.”

Chuck, that’s all we ever hear about already, year-in and year-out...

Trump should invite to the White House the 13 and 14 year old boys team that stomped the USWNT.

Notpartisen, she’s a radical dyke with delusions of grandeaur. She’s nothingness personified.

She thinks she is somebody

Like what’s his name, sh’s just another dumb jock.

I hope for Schumer’s sake ALL the women in his office make the same amount as the men. It would be tough for him to explain this one away while giving Rapa-ho a tour of the Senate. Aren’t Congressional pay records public documents?

Someone should look.
