“She’s going to do her thing, at her own damn speed, to her own damn rhythm, and she’s going to apologize to exactly NO ONE for it. Megan is at the boss level in the video game of knowing herself,” Sue Bird writes about Megan Rapinoe

Photo: Mike Lawrie/Getty Images Not even a week ago, I proudly proclaimed that I would fight any other Megan Rapinoe obsessive who might falsely claim to have more love to offer her than I. But today, I must announce that I am mentally returning Rapinoe to her chosen partner, who just published an essay about her that’s so heartwarming, I know it would be wrong to keep Rapinoe to myself.
In “So The President F*cking Hates My Girlfriend,” published on sports website The Players’ Tribune, WNBA star Sue Bird wanted to make a few points related to the 2019 Women’s World Cup: She effused over the U.S. women’s national soccer team’s 2-1 victory over France in the quarterfinals, and offered up a “decidedly non-expert World Cup semifinal preview.” But really, she was writing to accomplish one thing: to praise Rapinoe, who she considers “the world’s biggest most kissable goofball queen.
As the title suggests, Bird opens up about what it was like to have President Trump go after Rapinoe after the star midfielder preemptively turned down an offer to visit the “ White House.” Though Bird writes that some of the repercussions of Rapinoe’s rejection “[scare] the sh*t out of [her]” — i.e., having a bunch of MAGA supporters flocking to their social media — Rapinoe “seemed completely unfazed.
“She’s going to do her thing, at her own damn speed, to her own damn rhythm, and she’s going to apologize to exactly NO ONE for it,” Bird writes. “Megan is at the boss level in the video game of knowing herself.” But Bird didn’t just tackle serious subjects: She got into Rapinoe’s pink hair , how the star midfielder makes her sartorial decisions , and what she adorably refers to as “Megan Goggles,” wherein Bird puts on imaginary “goggles” when she suspects that her “free-spirit” of a girlfriend is about to make a questionable decision. An example:[Sue puts on Megan Goggles…..] “When I put on my Megan Goggles??” Bird writes.
