Not sure I want to punish the majority of the team for the transgressions of one or more narcissists on the team, but they definitely need to take a lesson from the swimmers and gymnasts.  They showed class and dignity rather than having a "look at ME" attitude.

I used to really enjoy women's soccer, especially when Catherine Whitehill (nee Reddick) played as a defender on the Womens' National Team (she played for the same Birmingham club as my daughter, but was three to four years older).  It was all about team with them.  Doesn't seem so now.  It is a freaking sport, people, it isn't politics, and because you are good at a sport, your political views should stand on their own merits and not be more important because you can kick a freaking soccer ball, shoot a basketball, or score a touchdown.

And the Olympic committee tucked their tales and ran regarding the one who crossed her arms in an "x".
