Obnoxious liberal and TV talk show favorite Rapinoe determined to make Olympics about politics

Look at ME!

Richard Jack Rail  "Megan Rapinoe's roaring again.  The International Olympic Committee published new rules that prohibit "political, religious or racial propaganda" "at medal ceremonies and Olympic venues," and Rapinoe says she "will not be silenced."  She later added that she will kneel anyway, which would force the IOC to enforce its rules or back down.

"Not one for fine distinctions, Megan understands the world only in relation to herself and, as usual, completely misses the point.  The IOC said nothing about silence.  They said she couldn't use the Olympic stage to push politics.  You can noisily talk about anything else — your girlfriend, the state of soccer, the game you just played, your house, your car, your dog.  Just don't use the Olympics to push politics.  That would include kneeling.

"If you get to do it, then everybody gets to do it, and in short order, WWIII would erupt.

"But that's okay, Megan — keep running your face.  It would give many of us satisfaction to see this woman barred from play at Tokyo in 2020 because of her obnoxiousness.  She's trying to bend the world to her will and we don't like it.  We don't like her scowling mug, her snotty comments, her arrogance, or her presumption.  Those of us who follow soccer may like to watch her play, but we turn the channel when the interviews begin.

"It remains for the IOC to show that it has the scrote to keep Megan off the field.  She will doubtless be joined by some of her teammates on the U.S. women's soccer team.  That may be when Megs notices that America really doesn't care much about her crusade.  Not only Americans — nobody else much cares, either.  Women's soccer just isn't popular the way men's soccer is.  That's nobody's fault.  Not Megan's, not mine, not the IOC's.  That's just how it is.

"Megan, you get paid right well to do something you love to do.  Many of us don't have that privilege.  If you don't like your job, do something else.
