Megan Rapinoe kicked up another round of controversy at the Tokyo Olympics
� and now a group of Subway franchisees are pressuring the fast-food giant
to give her the boot.

The 36-year-old, purple-haired soccer star � who kneeled during the
National Anthem to kick off the Tokyo Olympics before leading the United
States to a bronze medal this week � began a stint as a pitchwoman for the
fast-food giant this spring.

In one spot, Rapinoe � who has been a vocal proponent of equal rights and
equal pay for women � knocks a burrito out of a guy�s hands by kicking a
soccer ball at him.

The response has been mixed, according to franchisees. Late last month on
a discussion forum hosted by the North American Association of Subway
Franchisees, a Wisconsin store operator posted a picture of a hand-
scrawled note from an irate customer taped to the front door of his shop.

�Boycott Subway until Subway fires the anti-American � Megan Rapinoe, the
creep who kneels for our beloved National Anthem!� the note read.

�The ad should be pulled and done with,� the franchisee wrote of the
Rapinoe spot. �It gets tiring apologising.�

Subway doesn�t own any of its nearly 22,000 locations, but it charges
franchisees 4.5 percent of their revenue for a national advertising fund
and controls how the money is spent. Now, many store operators �
particularly those in red states � say they�re facing a harsh backlash
from the parent company�s decisions.

Last week, reps from the NAASF told members the group had already taken
grievances over the Rapinoe ads to the company�s top management, led by
Chief Executive John Chidsey.

�Your NAASF Board has already communicated with [Subway] leadership the
concerns voiced by NAASF membership,� the group�s executive director,
Illya Berecz, told franchisees, according to a letter obtained by The
Post.

�I had a bunch of franchisees calling me on this today,� a lawyer who
represents Subway franchisees told The Post earlier this week. �They are
trying to get the ads pulled.�

Berecz didn�t respond to requests for comment. Subway also didn�t respond
to requests for comment.

�They probably wanted more splashy advertising to go along with more
splashy foods,� said John Gordon of Pacific Management Consulting Group,
which advises restaurants. �We are so politically divided in this country
and Subway should have done more careful due diligence, without a doubt,
before choosing [Rapinoe].�

Indeed, after this week�s disappointing bronze medal, Trump took a few
digs at Rapinoe.

�If our soccer team, headed by a group of Leftist Maniacs, wasn�t woke,
they would have won the Gold Medal instead of the Bronze,� Trump said in a
statement. �The woman with the purple hair played terribly and spends too
much time thinking about Radical Left politics instead of doing her job!�

Rapinoe this year has inked other endorsement deals besides Subway,
including a tie-up with Victoria�s Secret in June.

Rapinoe commented on a nonentity's nonelection?

Same number you did.

We're discussing a foul-mouthed lesbian leftist with rotting
catfish vaginitis. Please stay on topic.

Stupid question, even stupider response.

And she has never felt the need to belittle Trump for losing the
last election. Thank you for understanding this.
