Women’s Bikini Soccer

Yesterday, the US Women’s Soccer Team lost to Sweden 3-0 in their opening match.  Contrary to what pundits are saying, this wasn’t a “You go woke, you go broke” situation.  No, the US team lost because the team from Sweden simply played better. In reality, both teams knelt before the
