If the women's soccer team had spent more time practicing and less time kneeling and whining about how little they earn maybe they wouldn't have lost 0-3 to Sweden in their first game.

And other than making one feel in the moral elite what does kneeling accomplish? Telling people what they already know, i.e. that there are some bad people in the world and the world is imperfect.

And once one team kneels they all have to kneel. Otherwise the inference is that they're not in the moral elite like the kneelers.

So silly when one who is acting like he is morally elite criticizes women for acting like they are morally elite. Just seems a bit hypocritical to me.

My guess is that your moral standards come from a source who considers themselves morally elite too. Perhaps it is just the message you don't like.

As for me, I'll be watching elite athletes performing at an amazing level and appreciate it for what it is.

Didn't say and don't think it's immoral Where did you see that? Just think it's moral posturing, inconsequential and dumb.

"Just think it's moral posturing, inconsequential and dumb."

No disrespect but that's exactly like this entire thread on a Lehigh Wrestling discussion board. Take a moment and think about it and then enjoy the Olympic Games...all of it. :-)

Women kneeling....there is an unspoken comment here.
