The congratulations keep coming in for the USWNT as they continue to celebrate their World Cup victory.
One particular video caught the eye of the ladies when New England Patriots Rob Gronkowski decided to drop this:

Gronkowski is reported to play a cop in a movie called You Can’t Have It, but we’re not sure that’s the set he was on. It's cool to see the ladies get the recognition they deserve from stars like Gronkowski, actor Tom Hanks, who is a big supporter of women's soccer, and others.
Also, in tribute to their victory, Sports Illustrated announced that all members of the team will receive their own individual covers for the magazine.
I don't think any team, male or female has be honored this way by SI, so for them to even do this,should tell us all how important of a victory this was in terms breaking down certain barriers in women's athletics.
Let's hope it continues.
