As a lesbian who appreciates a cucumber more than a real man. Thankfully she will never have any progeny.

Let her try her little act in Tehran or Kabul and see how the locals treat her.

“How will Megan Rapinoe’s career be remembered ...”

As an obnoxious, purple haired, loudmouthed, America hating, filthy democrat dyke. Other than that nothing unusual.

When transgendered dudes start playing women’s soccer Megan Rapinoe will become irrelevant

Once she is safely dead she will either get a statue and a school named after her, or she will be completely forgotten. It depends on whether the town has anything else going for it.

So, I guess they won’t be inviting her to be the grand marshal for the “Pride” parade.

In April the athlete signed a letter opposing a U.S. House bill that would protect females from having to compete against male athletes who identify as female.

How come Megan didn’t try out for any of the men’s teams

No idea how her home folks will feel, but I for one can’t wait to forget her.

I will remember her being on supposedly the best womens soccer team around, that routinely has been beaten by male high school soccer teams.

https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/63ajk7/fc_dallas_u15s_beat_us_womens_national_team_52_in/

Apparently in this game a male player nutmeg’d Megan.

A nutmeg is a technique used in soccer, field hockey, or basketball, where a player rolls or throws the ball through an opponent’s legs to pass to another player, shoot on goal, or retrieve it.

I have zero respect for her in any regard. Clearly she doesn’t care what I, or millions of other Americans feel, but the US subsidized her training and she should be grateful for the support she got...but she isn’t. I say good riddance.

If she moves or is exiled to Afghanistan she will be remembered...
