Interesting note that you state the men's team did the same thing. I don't recall seeing it mentioned much. But because Rapinoe is this creepy, woke, America-hater, she's gotten tons of undeserved attention from the media.

IMO, if you play on a team representing your country, and your team is funded by tax dollars and donations, you shut your mouth, act grateful for the opportunity and the aforementioned funding you, and play your best damned game. If on the other hand, like Rapinoe, you want to use your access to the media the people's monies afforded you to slam the team you play for that represents us, SCREW YOU.
The men's WC was last year and they did fairly well, without the expectations of the women, but it wasn't a complete drama fest as the women's team has been for far too long. It's a shame it has to be so and didn't in my opinion.
