US Women's Soccer Team May Have Won World Cup, But They Lost America After Throwing Flag on the Ground and Stomping on It"I never understood why Megan Rapinoe agreed to accept a position on the U.S. Women's National Team. Why would she play for a country that she holds with such contempt? And even more puzzling, why would U.S. Soccer select a woman who clearly cannot tolerate the nation she's supposed to be representing?" -Todd Starnes (France) — [Reprinted with permission from ToddStarnes.com] As patriots, we must root for anyone who is wearing the American flag on their jersey. But I've gotta confess—some of the women on the US Soccer team have made that very hard to do. (Screengrab image: via Twitter) It's bad enough that some of them have disrespected the national anthem and others have cursed the president. It's bad enough that many of them plan to boycott the White House visit. But when Allie Long threw the American flag on the ground on national television—that is beyond disrespect. "She knew exactly what she was doing, but just didn't give a damn," one sports fan noted on Instagram. "Damn amazing disrespect for a photo op." "Absolutely disgraceful," wrote another. "Playing sports, you are taught at a young age to be respectful to the flag and our country." Thank goodness for the teammate who rushed over to retrieve the desecrated flag. And perhaps the next time US Soccer decides to field a team—maybe, just maybe—they could select soccer players who actually love the nation they will be representing.
