The Womens Soccer National Team Dumps the "Anthem Kneeler" Rapinoe

It seems to be a new sheriff in town  at the USWNT headquarters.

But at the outset of that process, that has meant excising several stars and stalwarts, not least of them striker Alex Morgan and attacking midfielder Megan Rapinoe. Also left out of the team were defenders Ali Krieger, Julie Johnston and Megan Klingenberg and 18-year old prodigy forward Mallory Pugh. Goalkeeper Hope Solo, of course, remains suspended and is unlikely to ever return to the fold.

I guess Rapinoe will need to kneel on her own time.
