I didn't watch them last night ( 3 AM no thank you ).
The first two games they certainly didn't look like the best team in the world.
I guess they were maybe even worse, from reports, vs Portugal.

That's three games they've played like shit.

They have some of the best players in the world bc of the $$ the US ( mainly investors ) puts into the league...they just aren't playing well as a unit.

do they?

or did they just play like shit?
I'm half joking. But they have not been good. They're a group that seems like they've never played together. While teams from other countries have much greater chemistry, but less talent. We have great talent, but crap chemistry.

i wasn’t sure, but thought that was probably the case

i’m guessing we see more minutes from the vets to start off in the next round

The trouble is, the vets have been even more lackluster than the new kids on the block.
Morgan still has stuff.
Ertz hasn't found her touch and has gotten burned ( she almost let Portugal walk off with a win last night - thisclosetoeliminatingtheus ).
Rapinoe is a shell of herself.

i thought i heard/read that this team was quite young, relatively speaking

i haven’t been able to watch any of the matches myself thus far, but it seems like there is a sense of entitlement and lack of urgency

i’d think the vets might remedy some of that, but maybe not

Serves them right for disrespecting the flag and the anthem. I laughed out loud when I saw what happened.

I think certain members of the USWNT used the protections of the fear to speak against women to manipulate a public and organization to submit to something that wasn't actually fair, at all, and was just a way to get more out of their previous agreement which paid players in the general pool rather than pay for play.

Rapinoe led a lot of the charge -- there really wasn't unfair pay at the US level -- the 'unfair' ( not same amount ) pay was largely a result of FIFA payment differences in the World Cup. And blame that on viewership and popularity.

It pitted the USMNT vs the UMWNT and the USMNT were man enough to say, ok, whatever, take our money.

I'm glad Rapinoe is gone and blew it -- ( and god, she was laughing after she shanked it to the moon, fuck that shit ) but was sad to see them, as a team, loose to Sweden, and am hopeful for their future.

Someone feels a person should have an allegiance to a piece of cloth and a song.
Someone laughed because people who represent their country failed.
So.... If you were a psych doc, how would you psychologically diagnose that person?

That's an incredibly simplistic synopsis of the situation. You're both better and smarter than that, Gutter.

It’s not about a song. It is about ingratitude and disrespect for the country that you are supposed to be representing. I’m sick and tired of entitled athletes feeling the need to hijack sports and use them as a platform for airing of grievances and pushing political agendas.
