Normal, rational, polite people: "Good luck in the Gold Cup final, guys. We're rooting for you!"

Megan Rapinoe: "F**k you for stealing our limelight."

I will consider your pov when FIFA pays winning women the same as the loser men.

Christian Pulisic isn't getting rich off what FIFA "pays" him for international play. In fact, I don't think they're paying him anything at all. He became the most expensive US player ever (transfer fee: $73 million, which is probably more than the entire USWNT is worth) because of his club play for Dortmund and because Chelsea has a fan base big enough to support that kind of money for a single player.

I think you mean US Soccer, not FIFA. But even then, facts are facts. Male players make more money internationally because the men's game is vastly more popular. And the constant politicization of the women's game by Rapinoe, her teammates and their fangirls likely will make that divide even worse.

Go ahead and celebrate in your little bubble, but keep in mind that half of this country knows that the USWNT's behavior has made a mockery of the "One Nation, One Team" slogan and will react accordingly.

Signed: Someone who was a fan in 2015 and watched every game, but couldn't care less this year.

I realize you desperately want this to be true. However, it is not. The heavyweight sponsors who only do what make them the most money are evidence of this.

Really? Then what are they (and you) whining about? They're already getting paid.

I'd love to stay and argue, but I'm busy watching the "meaningless" Copa America final, because I want to see what happens when a group of players actually lives the "One Nation, One Team" slogan and unites their country behind them instead of just mouthing the words as a marketing slogan while making a mockery of them in reality.

Could you be any more of a snowflake? My God, how embarrassing.

Rapinoe and Morgan were not being doubled. Morgan was seeing lots of elbows and was rendered pretty ineffective. Take away the game against Thailand and she was a bust.

Rapinoe, bless her heart, worked hard but she is done. No team was afraid of her.

Lavelle and Dunn played great.

LOL Rapinoe should not be on the field. Seriously she is not of the quality the rest of the team. Do you know much about soccer? Even the political correct 1/2 time show was talking about subs. It’s was Rapinoe they were talking about.

DP. Can you explain further? Perhaps I don’t understand soccer very well, but I’m having a hard time understanding how she said not as good as the rest when she saw one of their leading scorers.

Please if you think Rapinio should be on that field you know nothing about soccer. She is a liability out there and the team had to cover for her. She scored because of the teams around her. Again how did she score the goals? Did she create chances? No. Any time the ball went to her and she was pressured it was a turn over. Press is better. Dunn is better. Seriously talk to a few people who know soccer. You obviously know nothing about soccer.

That is why I asked you to explain it to me. I’m happy to hear the reasons behind your opinion if you care to share them.

She can not take player on 1v1, she turns the ball over when pressured(over 8 turn overs in this game in the final 1/3), she has no pace, she is lazy(does not track back or win the ball), she is out of position, her first touch is bad, the other field players must adjust to cover for her because she is out of position, only one defender is sent when she has the ball, her passes are off in terms of weight, touch and timing, etc. etc. She should not be on the field. Oh but she scored 6 goals( 3 penalty kicks, one lucky free kick). She should not be on the field.

And she scored 6 goals and 3 assists, set up 3 scoring chances in the final, vindicating the coach’s choice that she should be on the field. Your stupidity and bias don’t hold up against her contributions towards winning this World Cup. She was clutch, sorry. Cry about it, go yell it out in public through a megaphone. But she’s a back to back world champion.

LOL. My 12 year old DD and friends said pretty much the same as the pp. They were very disappointed to see her bad play receive awards. I guess you think the place kicker on the Patriots is the reason they win super bowl?

I feel like the lesson here to your DD has been lost.

Agreed. And as a PP I’ll post my bit again...

I’m so proud of the women. Say what you will about individual players, this is another incredible accomplishment. There are many polarizing athletes but as a woman and former player I hope we can rcelebrate the better aspects of what this means for girls moving forward.

It means nothing moving forward.

US Soccer still needs to be sued for equal pay. People are more than happy with the way they played so zero evolution of the game form a player selection or development standpoint.

No new king on the hill to knock off making things interesting. It might as well be another Patriots Super Bowl win for as interesting as it is and its ability to truly advance the interest in the women's game internationally.

I disagree. The more our girls see that anything is possible the more they will refuse to accept all of the naysaying which is unfortunately evident in this forum.

The thing is you guys think every thing you see is so insightful and no one else gets it. Yes we can see when she loses a ball in midfield. And yes at 34, after 3 ACL tears, and with maybe a hamstring issue, the work rate and pace is not what it was. The coach wanted her out there for what she brings in the big moments and she was right. She won the Golden Ball - guess it wasn't based on the every touch video. I know you have learned a lot from watching your little girl play travel soccer - maybe you don't know everything just yet.
