Megan Rapinoe facing the heat for a controversial Subway advertisement

Last month on a discussion forum hosted by the North American Association of Subway Franchisees (NAASF), there were a lot of angry voices who did not agree with the fact that Megan Rapinoe is the new face of the popular fast-food conglomerate.

“Boycott Subway until Subway fires the anti-American…Megan Rapinoe, the creep who kneels for our beloved National Anthem! The ad should be pulled and done with. It gets tiring apologizing,” the letter read of the Rapinoe spot.
