Originally posted by Unregistered View PostRapinoe is perhaps their best player but she should go. Trump is a poor president, but we have a democracy and should honor our country. I am tired of the other side whining when their person isn't in power. We have enough laws and checks and balances to ensure that our basic principles are followed.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostPro Football is a private entertainment business watched primarily by red neck men. If they want them standing, the employer should be able to tell them to stand or walk. It's their right to protest. It's the companies right to fire them if they don't like it and believe it will hurt the business.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostIt is sad she cannot separate the country from Trump or racism/sexism. No country is perfect and progress can seem slow and unfair, but the US is truly a great country and she shouldn’t turn her back on it. I watched the pre-game last Sunday against South Africa and was pleasantly surprised to see the black South African players singing their anthem with emotion. South Africa had apartheid 30 years ago and still suffers from corruption and inequality, but if those girls can honor their country, then certainly Rapinoe can too (I did see her standing).
Our 144 character society views things thru such a short-term lens.
our National Anthem was here long before and will he here long after Trump

Pro sports are businesses and the customers are the fans. Why would you want to piss off your customers?

I have no idea why anyone watches these ignorant, self absorbed, anti- American children. During the WC one can probably find the equivalent level of soccer watching a local middle school boy's game.
