    Well you were the one butting into my conversation and expecting me to answer you. I'm was just informing you that's not what I was talking about. You can do whatever you want, just don't expect me to play along. And then tell me I'm wrong for not playing along. Your instructions mean nothing to me either.

    Wolves don't concern themselves with the opinions of sheep.

    Look, I've already told you, from your responses it's obvious I'm not going to be able to explain it to you. You won't get it. No point in going through it.

    Seems the only place they went was back to their homes. C'est la vie, troll.

    Took you long enough. Only what 3-4 posts stating the same thing for you to understand "I can't do it"? Just think how much bandwidth it would take for you to understand anything above that simplicity.

    Well Trump won't have Rapinoe to kick around (at least at the start) today. Press is starting in her place.

    She's not starting for undisclosed reasons.

    You're suggesting that it could be that it's not just a technical choice by Jill Ellis?

    Could the Mods close this thread for the duration of the game -- kind of a distraction. That or Sticky the match thread (or both)?

    Well, this is Press's biggest opportunity to shine. We will see if she is as good as many people think she is.

    I am not suggesting that. The reasons she is not starting have not been disclosed although she was queried. If I were to suggest anything, it would be that she is injured. She's not warming up.

    On TV they've now reported that it's a hamstring issue. Such unfortunate timing. I hope that the U.S. can win this game AND that Rapinoe will be OK for Sunday.

    1) That's ONE of the reasons. But let me quote the Douchebag-in-chief's tweet:

    "Megan should never disrespect our Country, the White House, or our Flag, especially since so much has been done for her & the team."

    I think it's obvious that his mention of the flag specifically references her actions during the National Anthem.

    2) The pop culture reference you keep repeating is 34 years old. If your intent is to sound cool, you've got to update your repertoire.

    Press has 122 caps and 49 goals... I think she’s proven to be a huge asset for this team...Starting or coming off the bench. Don’t think she has anything more she has to prove..

    So we saw. In a crucial game, Press was just as good as many of us think she is. No surprise here.

    It's beyond strange to see so many MAGA-type Americans rooting against their own country. They are not American patriots. They are cultists. They are against their own country's entire team because ONE PLAYER used her free speech rights to say what she thinks about the object of their slavish devotion. It's truly weird. They are like children. Or sheep.

    "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel."
