Furthermore, if her team wins, I also wouldn't be surprised to see some sore-loserish behavior from the other team in the form of some parent/fan filing a lawsuit against the winning team for the same reason. She should've kept her mouth shut or else just done some good old-fashioned non-monetary trash talking about her opponents...
