Sue Bird Writes Amazing NSFW Players' Tribune Piece About Girlfriend Megan Rapinoe and the USWNT
By Sean Facey

Sue Bird is many things. She's a WNBA legend, a front office executive for the Denver Nuggets and a four-time Olympic gold medalist.
She's also the girlfriend of soccer star Megan Rapinoe and is fiercely proud of it, as is evidenced by her amazing NSFW piece in the Players' Tribune entitled "So the President F-ckin Hates My Girlfriend."
Hi!! @S10Bird here. This is my WC Semis preview. Title was supposed to be “So the President F*cking Hates My Girlfriend (& 10 Other Things I Want You to Know Before the World Cup Semifinals)” but we ran out of space. My bad. Thanks for reading. GO @USWNT.https://t.co/A2dJrBIzRh

Bird discusses at length how proud she is of Rapinoe's success with the United States Women's National Team and how President Trump's constant attacks on Rapinoe's stance on not visiting the White House have influenced them.
She addresses the subject of equal pay too, stating that there frankly shouldn't be a debate on the issue anymore.
It's a truly fantastic work that heaps deserved praise on Rapinoe and the USWNT and rightfully sheds light on just how absurd it is that the President feels the need to attack one lone athlete based on her views.

It's an important read for all fans who want to gain insight into the world of women's sports.
