It's hard to imagine Macario being left off the roster, but at the same time, I don't see how Vlatko leaves off a legend gunning for Olympic Gold in her last major tournament, either.

Um . . . how about because Macario is better than both old timers?  

Actually, you could be right because Rapinoe started when better players were reserves (at least my take).  

And I have a soft spot for Rapinoe (despite the comments above).  Always have.
