It is interesting to watch all the liberals covering for the miserable performance of USWNT’s underachievers. One report left out Rapinoe’s missed PK entirely, whilst another source criticized the conservative right and Trump for suddenly being concerned about soccer as if it is the exclusive domain of the left, quibbling over their mistakenly calling the “round of 16” the “16th round” and referring to a “penalty kick” as a “free kick.” They even called out the pundits, chastising Carlyi Lloyd for her criticism and for not knowing what these women have been through. They blasted former men’s national team player Alexis Lalas a frequent network commentator, for his critique because the US men have never reached the level of World Cup success that until recently the women enjoyed. That was a cheap shot. So now that they have equal pay I guess we can expect equally abysmal results on the world stage.
