    US men soccer is like the 6th most watched sports and not close to the level that the women play at. They are like the dominating force out there.

    Also intended to say, club futball is where the male sport generated the most money.

    Rapinoe is not starting.. Why would Jill Ellis do that? @leroy I need a ruling. What is the strategy?

    Rapinoe is carrying a yellow card. If she gets one more, she will be suspended for the championship game. The coach can’t risk that. IMO.

    I don't follow soccer, so this may be a dumb question, but don't that have to get into the championship game to worry about her playing in the championship game?

    That said...

    Press scores fast so the speculation on why Rapinoe got benched settles down for now.

    I cant believe the camera man didn't pan over to see Rapinoe's reaction. He could have been nominated for a daytime Emmy. I think it's an international broadcast so they don't care about the drama brewing with the USA, Ilm just saying imagine it..

    Why wouldn't Jill Ellis just say she is hurt then? It's so easy. Speculation starts bleeding over into politics.

    Man, ever since Naeher took over for Hope Solo I thought she has been garbage.. She came through in the biggest moment. What a save.
