ON THE DAY BEFORE the USWNT meets Colombia in a friendly in the Denver area, star winger Megan Rapinoe gave her reaction to the Supreme Court overturning Roe v.
Megan always steps up, and I imagine what she did today, in such a thoughtful and composed manner, was especially difficult. We are lucky to have her as a representative of our country, even/especially on days when our country lurches evermore into a fascist, white supremacist theocracy.
Thanks for this... Telling about the state of play in this country that informed, self aware leadership is more likely to come from an athlete than any elected official on either side.
SAFXR: Searing and profound, should be the most apt commentary on SCOTUS’ decision today. Megan’s statement must be ground zero for the re-implementation of pro-choice.
My favorite athlete saying what needs to be said. Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Grant. Very powerful stuff by an eloquent spokesperson. Proud she lives and plies her trade in my home city. This decision is a travesty, and she states the situation very clearly.
Why do I want to know what Rapinoe thinks? It’s a free country. She can spill words concerning whatever topic she wants to. I will continue to step over her spillage.

Thanks for transcribing and sending this out Grant!
