I presume she does not understand that her act increases the hate in our country.

I am not going to say this was anti american, just stupidity. Our national teams seem to forget they are playing for the U.S., we foot the bill etc for most of their expenses. As stated in another post on this, all national teams members, men's, women's etc should have to take a class on the do's and don'ts and have explained that during the actual tournaments they need to leave their political views on the table and once the tournament is over they can pick them back up. If they don't like those rules then don't play for a national team, go find a pro team to play for.

SSG (Join to see) Actually most if not all of them play for 'professional' teams. Rapinoe plays for the Reign FC (Tacoma, WA). That team a couple of years ago was losing so much money that they almost disbanded. I believe that they are still losing money.

Megan Rapinoe is not representing America when she acts so inconsiderate to our flag. Allie Long is wrong to drop her purchase on the flag so they can make some taunting cheer for winning. How inappropriate and such a disgraceful display of Un-American activity during a athletic competition. I would love to commend player #15 who scooped the flag up and brought it with her. She should be the hero in all of this not Rapinoe!
