evidence: Like most things in the past 24 years, the USWNT changed dramatically. Not all at once and not for quite some time. But, most assuredly they changed. Even two time FIFA Player of the Year Carli Lloyd noticed it. She called this team arrogant and publicly called them out for their celebration after tying Portugal, laughing it up when only moments before a goalpost had stopped heavy underdog Portugal from sending them home in the Group Stage. Good for Carli. Someone had to. Even then, they continued, following Megan Rapinoe's lead, to not sing our National Anthem nor to place hand over heart. With a couple of exceptions. [...] After winning the World Cup, she showed no respect for our flag, stepping on it in celebration while teammate Kelly O'Hara, understanding the significance of the flag on the ground, raced to pick it up. Rapinoe didn't know, or worse, didn't care. Declining an invitation to the "F ing" White House she lashed out at President Trump as if her words meant something. Then admonished teammates not to go either.
