I Love Megan rapinoe, yesss

[@dbsk06]

wow american men in comments hating on american females' soccer team, their own country's women... sad.

[@Man0fSteell]

so what?

[@himwhoisnottobenamed5427]

It’s not “hating” when it’s true.

[@tranphuonganh5350]

So proud of you Megan

When I grow up I’m gonna be just like Meghan

[@himwhoisnottobenamed5427]

You’re gonna be a whiny lesbian that gets beaten by a team of 15 year olds? You’re going to a whiner who complains that you should be making what the men’s team gets even though you bring in less money? You’re going to blame everything on “cis white men” when shit doesn’t go your way? Get a better hero kid.

The trump supporters/ insecure men are mad in the comments. LOL.

[@Man0fSteell]

because this woman soo ugly

[@himwhoisnottobenamed5427]

I’d say the insecure ones are the idiots who blame everything on Trump. Something doesn’t go the way you wanted it? Trump’s fault. People calling out your hero for the loser that she is? Trump’s fault. Is it also somehow Trump’s fault that Rapinoe and her team got their shit kicked in by a team of 15 year old boys? Or that women professional athletes don’t get what their male counterparts get? Maybe if they pulled in the same money that men’s teams do. Try growing up kiddo.

[@luca6478]

angry lesbian playing a sport no one is watching needs attention so no she is an activist

[@weihsinchen4]

Get a life. She is 2 times world champ and the best female football player officially.

[@shadowshark275]

Wei Hsin Chen I mean she lost to 15 year old boys so I wouldn’t say that she is the best

[@WilloPR]

ShadowShark2 7 the greatest team ever assembled lost to college kids. Ask Michael Jordan.

[@amissibabz]

@@shadowshark275 unless the boys are considered female footballers, then I don't get how your comment questions her ability to go down as one of the best female footballers.... Anywho ... Males and females are physiologically different, a factor that most of the males who hate on female athletes tend to ignore... So do not judge a team from one scrimmage with an U15 boys team while overlooking the great accomplishments they've made over the years.
