Canada women's soccer will do no worse than silver after beating the U.S. women's national team in the Olympic semifinal round Monday.

In addition to being a monumental win, the victory also ensured that Olympic history will be made.

When midfielder Quinn took the field in Canada's Olympic opener against Japan, they became the first openly transgender athlete to compete in the Olympics. Now Quinn is the first transgender Olympian to secure a medal.

I don't know if that they in Quinn's name is a grammatical error or one of those woke pronouns. Anyway, losing to a guy is rubbing salt in the wounds of the US team. I'm sure Megan will be proud to be part of a team that allowed the first openly transgender Olympic athlete to medal. LOL!!

Canada has some mighty Eskimoes.

Thank you, Megan!

The lefty American womyn got beaten by a fake woman—love it!

Chickens coming home to roost...

Moron Megan will probably never face the fact that natural law always wins. Specifically, the average male will always beat the average female when they have comparable skills.

Methinks there will never be athletic victories by a “woman becoming a man.”

The Olympics used to have a sports component to it, now it’s all about wokeness, mental illness and sex.

Hard for me to say this, but I’m rooting for Australia.

I solved the puzzle by going to his twitter page and saw the orwellian “they/them” pronouns declared for this singular person.

Looks like the kind of boy that was always picked last for sports at school... and I should know because I was always picked last (or 2nd to last after an even scrawnier asian kid transferred in).

Why aren’t there openly transgender females operating on men’s teams? They could engage the ‘oldest profession’ and promise blowjobs to every athlete as long as they get the gold medal. Seems fair.

The key question is, now that the US team is out of medal contention, will NBC stop shoving Megan Rapinoe in our faces for a while?

will NBC stop shoving Megan Rapinoe

I have not watched that nest of Commies network in years...

[silent majority rising]

The US does not have a national team. We have a collection of individuals who are competing for contracts or their own pet projects after the Olympics. There are some that want to be a team, but they are getting few and far between.

Isn’t that special.

Even more puzzling is that Quinn was born Rebecca Catherine Quinn so I'm not even sure what, ahem, "they" identify as. But they have always played women's soccer so I don't see what is supposed to be unique. It's almost like a female gymnast saying she isn't really a female she's a rabbit, then she medals and the woke world media celebrates the first Olympic medal won by a rabbit.

Teams are all pretty lesbos and trannies all around. That’s happening pretty much in all womyn’s team sports. Straight girls don’t even want to bother playing anymore.

S/b Teams are all pretty much lesbos and trannies all around.

(nothing 'pretty' about them!)

I’m rooting for Botswana, so indifferent that I’m not even sure if they have a team.

[Flavious_Maximus]

So does this mean that Quinn was born with a penis? Otherwise, she is not a he pretending to be a she.
