Player gets booed for upholding personal convictions
Seems she is getting the Colin Kaepernick treatment:

Quote:On July 18, however, she (Hinkle) got a call-up. And the reaction was fierce.

“Kick Her Off” screamed one Slate headline. “By giving Jaelene Hinkle a roster spot, U.S. Soccer sold out its LGBTQ fans and players for a better shot at the Women’s World Cup.” It went on to accuse head coach Jill Ellis, who is married to a woman, of “compromising the unity that’s essential for any good team and snubbing a not-insignificant segment of their customer base.”

Monday, five days after being added to the training camp roster, she was cut. But why?

I wonder how many high profile athletes/ media personalities will come to her defense.
