There is no answer for an enraged rant, bambino.

The only hate Rapinoe is promoting is yours. And this episode, like so many others involving strong women is exposing your insecurity.

She is and so are you. Have you been seeing the Bulgarian? He’s been banned for life. You two have a lot in common.

She’s a worldwide superstar. A champion. And an exemplary representative of the diversity that makes this country great, despite the divisive rhetoric of Trump and his howling minions.

Rapinoe isn’t the only one either. Originally Posted by Yssup Rider

We have to be the last place anyone else would want to live or immigrate too.

Agreed , SR.

After two championships, i do think they are due a Raise!
They likely generated the fan interest and revenue to deserve it

Well, the women in question generated as much publicity about her as the team that won the World Cup. Well played.
Give them equal pay.

Let the market decide.

""Rugby football" became "rugger" for short. "Association football" became "soccer."


After these two sports spread across the Atlantic, Americans invented their own variant of the game that they simply called "football" in the early 1900s.

"Association football" became "soccer" in America, and what was called "gridiron" in Britain became simply "football" in America.

The interesting thing here is that Brits still used "soccer" regularly for a huge chunk of the 20th century. Between 1960 and 1980, "soccer" and "football" were "almost interchangeable" in Britain, Szymanski found." https://www.businessinsider.com/why-...-soccer-2014-6
