    Perhaps she should just take it up with her union as they were the ones who negotiated their pay......

    She would wear it as a burka if she could get attention. She is clearly an attention addict.

    Trump FanBoys want you to hate these women for being unpatriotic - but what they really mean is you need to hate them because they don't kiss Trump's ass.

    Trump fans adopted soccer star Kelley O'Hara as their hero. Then they watched this kiss.


    [​IMG]









    Republican pundits eager to praise Women’s World Cup soccer star Kelley O’Hara received a rude awakening when cameras caught her smooching her girlfriend in the stands.

    Following the big win by the American team at the World Cup Finals, O’Hara received praise for picking up an American flag which had accidentally fallen to the field. Fox News’ Walid Phares called O’Hara a “new American heroine.” The network even ran a story on O’Hara’s teammates Megan Rapinoe and Allie Long dropping and accidentally stepping on the flag. Rapinoe, in particular, has hotly criticized Donald Trump’s anti-LGBTQ policies.

    As the far right singled out O’Hara for praise, few pundits noticed that after picking up the flag, she rushed across the field to her girlfriend and locked lips. That makes her the 42nd identifiable LGBTQ player in the Women’s World Cup.

    The US team has earned as much attention for its wins in recent days as for its harsh criticism of the Trump Administration. Rapinoe rejected an invitation by Trump to visit the White House, as a have several other players. No doubt the folks over at Fox had hoped O’Hara might break rank with her teammates, though if we had to place bets, we think she’ll skip out too.

    Now, the deluded righties don't like her quite as much. ;)

    Agreed. Why not negotiate an incentive based compensation package based on results on the pitch. Instead Ms. Rapinoe seems obsessed with claiming Trump is excluding people like herself which of course goes unchallenged by the crack reporters of CNN.

    Funny i haven't heard anyone mention here at all until now. What she does is her own business. Is she the one who picked up the flag?

    I am sorry women's world cup soccer is so inconsequential that it doesn't make the news without additional drama.

    Some seem really upset over this trivial soccer thing. I suspect Trump has better things to do than get all spooled up over ball kickers. I can't imagine why it would draw the same response a couple of dozen times from any poster. This is a 15 minutes of fame deal.
    Maybe this Rapinhoe chick could team up with Hogg and go on a self pity tour.

    Admit it.... u got a little turned on.....

    Guess what white lesbians don't have? Children. I wonder if that is why the left is so enamored with them specifically. They don't seem to have nearly the same level of interest in POC lesbians.

    Not so. After all, the ink still hasn't dried from the million dollar endorsement contracts they are signing.

    If that was true, they would love Melania. Thus, it is more so with righties. ;)

    Trump and his FanBoys made this a big thing. Look who started this thread, and a half dozen others criticizing the players -
