Gotta wonder what those soccer girls think about

The home run derby winner winning a cool million tonight and all they earned was $250k for winning the World Cup. Maybe they should stand for our flag next time.

Maybe they should try out for a sport that makes a lot more money.

US is most exceptional country in history, but these dingleberries cannot see it or will not admit it. Either is a damning statement on their IQ.

Maybe they should get a better understanding of economics

And marketing. When the men’s World Cup produces (40X) the revenue they’re going to make more money. It also doesn’t help your viewership when you openly show disrespect for the country you represent.

Exactly. Women's soccer is just like women's basketball, the revenue is not the same. So the men will make more. Now, if you want to talk about equal pay in a normal workplace, that is another topic. I have advocated for myself and did not worry about what others were making. I have always made sure that I am happy with my salary.

I think we dislike ignorance and stupidity, no matter which sex spouts it. i.e we're treating everyone the same.

I care so little about the women’s World Cup they could host it in my back yard and I wouldn’t go. I do pull for the Men’s National team.

IMO, they should leave the politics out of it during the tournament and stop trying to paint the picture that the USA is being discriminate against women in sports. The Women's soccer team gets paid a higher percentage of the "take" than the Men's team.
If both Men and Women soccer made the same money and the Women got paid a lower percentage, then I could win that lawsuit, but that is not the case. The Women get paid what the "market bares" and it's not discrimatory.
So the Women should be doing what they can do to raise soccer income to increase their pay rather than continuously publicly complaining. To me, they are acting like spoiled brats that don't want to be part of the solution but just spout off about the problem and let everyone else deal with it. Like I told my children and employees, don't come to me with a problem unless you have thought of a solution because there are things you have to fix yourself.
As you can tell, I don't have much of an opinion about the subject. ??

Are the players continuously complaining?

Or is it just a big topic from the media currently?
Lots of projection for folks to call them disrespectful towards our country because of what the media talks about.

After reading all this drivel, I’m not sure a single one of you really understands what that flag stands for and what it means to be an American. Many of you may have even fought for that flag, had friends/family die for that flag, and still don’t get it. So much hate, judgment, and animosity in your hearts...and you want to criticize others for the same...smh.

But how can you be offended by a flag or anthem of a country that allows you to publicly be against the flag/anthem of said country??? People complain and ask for so much now, and yet they can’t show one country in the history of the world that they would have a better life. Instead of crying about everything that isn’t perfect, why don’t people accept that the world can be tough no matter where you live, and you should just make the best of it? Why do 99.99999% of people with a platform feel that they have to protest or make a political/social point on something??? Why is everybody so unhappy??? I’m LOVING life right now, and there are plenty of people in my industry that don’t have my talent and are currently making more than me. But guess what, I can pay my bills, I have a hot wife and a beautiful child, LIFE IS GOOD.

Probably dont think about it at all. I am sure they are smart enough to know how much money MLB generates.

and stood for our flag, they still didn't get paid like our men who have accopmplished jacksh-t on the world stage. This is America where we (supposedly) reward success and punish failure, but apparently that doesn't apply here. Maybe we should cut the men's pay instead.

Women's Soccer bringhs in $139 MILLION.
In what what would they be guaranteed as much as the the human's from the other HIGHER profit League
Now, before you answer, let me also point out, the women do make a larger percentage of the Gross that they help bring in,than the Men do . Do you now think a paycut is in order. ? LOL
