Baloney. All that matters is what happens between the lines. The 1972-74 Oakland A's were dysfunctional and won 3 straight World Series. This is all about punishing someone for her beliefs and assuaging the lesbians on the team. The US having won the World Cup doesn't justify leaving Hinkle off. In fact, they may have won it more handily with her playing.
Sorry, what? Baseball? Come on, baseball is almost an individual sport. For the batters it's basically individual, all it requires is a little team effort when trying to catch the damn thing. Soccer is much different.
But saying that, a dysfunctional team might be able to win. But it won't be as good as a functional team. The Men's Dutch national team are examples of that, whenever there's been a race issue, they've done badly.
Is it punishing her? She was the one who decided to pull out of the team in the first place. No person has an automatic spot on the team. You get it because someone thinks you'd be the best, and that person is the boss, and the boss's decision is final. Don't like it? Well go home and cry.
