[QUOTE="Purp, post: 2732854, member: 12852"] I respect what she accomplishes on the pitch, but I have little respect for her off the pitch. She may get me to support her cause with a different attitude and approach to delivering her message. She loses me every time she steps on her soapbox, though. And I'm also not sure why we keep having to hear from her. I don't think she's the best or most important player in the team, yet all we have to hear about is what Rapinoe thinks about this or that. I really couldn't care less anymore. I'd rather hear Carli Lloyd, Ertz, Heath, Morgan, O'Hara, or Saurbrunn. My point here is that I think the only reason there's controversy around her is because the media wants there to be. There are a lot of other players who carry sway in that room, but we seldom hear from the rest of them since they aren't as controversial. I feel like we've been played for 2 months just to generate some interest in this tournament when the same amount of interest would have existed without the nonsense. [/QUOTE]
