Probably not going to be fun to watch. The U.S. Women’s team lost to a team of 15 year old boys. Meh.

Some of the other teams which have played look like they are quite good.

Was looking forward to watching the game against Vietnam until I saw most of the team deciding to not participate in our national anthem-No 'hands on heart' or any sing along participation. Are they representing this country or not? I'm not even sure what exactly they were protesting-I thought they all just got a big equal pay win? Hate to ruin a good soccer conversation, but their inactions ruined my enjoyment. And please, don't mistake my comments here for a political diatribe, because whether you are right or left wing, it's still our country's national anthem.

They have a history of disrespecting this country. I have no use for that in my life.

You are wrong. They obviously do not.

So I would tell all male soccer players that can't make the male MLS to declare they are women and try out for female MLS. And basketball players, the WNBA. Pretty soon, females will only be able to play pick up games, as biological males will dominate every sport. |
On your poll choices, you forgot one.

HISTORY via Newsweek: Among the players who stayed silent was forward Megan Rapinoe, who ahead of the 2019 World Cup told Yahoo Sports that she was probably never going to sing the national anthem again. The player was the first in the team to kneel down during the anthem following NFL player Colin Kaepernick's protest against racial injustice in 2016, and the first white athlete to do so. PRESENT ACTIONS: Stand in silence for the national anthem as most other coaches and fans sing along. Many looking down or elsewhere, other than at the flag. As if they cannot tolerate being there. That's not how people act who are proud of the country they represent in front of the rest of the world. Meanwhile, Vietnam team shown clearly proud of their country and national anthem and were all singing it. |
After seeing a report most of the team failed to sing or hold their hand over their heart during the national anthem I no longer consider them an American team.
