I heard they lost 0-3 to Sweden.
That’s a shame.

If they concentrated soccer instead of making political statements . Perhaps the outcome would be more favorable.

I heard someone on the radio say "We aren't rooting against the Americans. We are rooting against the anti-Americans."

I heard someone on the radio say "We aren't rooting against the Americans. We are rooting against the anti-Americans." Even if their protest is poor timed or hell even if the message is stupid, the concept of protesting/speaking your mind is about as American as it gets. There's still countries that would imprison a protest like the one uswnt did, and way back in the day, the monarchy in UK would call it treason; not ever in the U.S., though, we broke that mold.

Rooting for ANY team or person representing the whole country in a sport to lose is rather unpatriotic IMO. I couldn't care less about anyone's political stance. I have plenty of friends on both sides (left and right) and never hold their beliefs against them. That's just me.

On another note, that Norwegian on the 400M hurdles broke the world record twice. That was extraordinary to watch.

I am just going to say it, this got pretty ugly. I for one am glad they won a medal, they played hard and represented us well.
