Actually I asked both questions because they are part of my processing. I apologize if I came off as dismissive. I should have elaborated why I was asking rather than just left the questions.

As for watching the game, I think it might make a difference if someone sat through the entire run of play for an hour and a half and watched the domination and the clear imbalance between the two team. If she had watched the game, that idea wouldn't have been valid. Since she didn't, I'm still wondering if that is where a general (not just here) difference of opinion is based.

Rapinoe is bringing issues outside of soccer or athletics in general into this world cup. Many people think that she is trying to bring up pay inequality, etc and are not aware of the other considerations.


I am more than willing to agree to disagree. My opinion still stands that I found the reaction to such domination of an weak opponent in the name of sport to have crossed a line and is not something I would value as a life lesson for my kids. If others are able to find some value in it, I trust their judgment for themselves.
