The us women's soccer cry of unfair pay .is total bs


From the ny times...

Men s world cup out 400 million...36 to the champs
Women's cup 0ut 30 million..4 going to the champ.

But women got the better deal and bigger share..

Women's cup made a revenue of 0 mill..
Men's cup...6 billion dollars..

So maybe the men's team needs to bitch more.
Seems like they need to get more.

Can we stop the equal for equal work chant..esp when it's proven men's teams drive bigger ratings and earn more revenue.

Maybe if the female players didn't go around alienating potential fans....they would get better ratings.. like rapino saying gay athletes are superior..and that's science.
Better rating means more revenue.

No woman sport courts men.. they simply promote the sport to the girls and lesbians.
Wnba is the perfect example

“You can’t win a championship without gays on your team - it’s never been done before, ever. That’s science, right there!"

This is Rapinoe's full quote. Sounds like she was joking around, to me.

Like when I have said that the Patriots can't win the Super Bowl without Tom Brady as their starting quarterback. Since, the Patriots actually have NOT won a Superbowl without Brady, technically what I have said is true. Just as what Rapinoe has said is true (every Women's World Cup Champion has had at least one open lesbian on the team).

At any rate, Rapinoe definitely did NOT say that gay athletes are better than straight. And you are definitely misquoting her.

Get the facts right

Just imagine if I said whites are superior athletes and you need them on the team to win..

And I doubt she was joking..

Thanks for reading..but go fuck off and read someone else's blog then

Sorry if the truth hurts.. If women want more revenue they need to earn it.
I'm tired of people just being given more..based on race/ gender or sexual orientation

Growing your sport means outreach and having your star players connect with people. Rupino does none of this but is the figure head?..

Seems the only thing she is good at is penalty kicks...why isn't Alex Morgan featured more...

First of all, no need to be rude. You put your thoughts into the blogosphere. If you didn't want people to read and comment on your blog, why post?

And again, Rapinoe never used the word "superior." She never said any group of people were superior to any other group of people.

Finally, your comparison doesn't make any sense. When was the last time a white athlete was told they were going to hell for being white? And how often are white athletes called names for being white? How often are white athletes told they can't have sex with or marry other white athletes?

Rapinoe rubs me the wrong way a lot, but I think she's just sticking up for herself and people like her. And, I still think her actual comment fits in with her snarky sense of humor.

Peace out...

No she said gay athletes are superior....do I have to link the fucking quote?

She said they are superior and you can't win championships without them..
Cause no teams without them ever won...

Seems pretty straight forward..she is against straight people.

But you all failed to address the elephant in the room.
Equal pay desired when her team doesn't deserve it.

Your pay is based on revenue period..men's soccer outshines womens.. it makes more money so men get paid more..it really is that simple.

She needs to stop playing the victim card

Setting aside the selfish stupidity of Rapinoe going to war against Trump and thereby alienating half the viewing public, the key statistic isn't the draw of each tournament. The World Cup is a worldwide event and most non-Western countries (really US, England, France) have zero respect for the women's game, so of course the gross worldwide of the men's tournament will be more.

The key issue is the draw in the US market. The entire soccer universe wants to capture the US market, and these women have done so. These women consistently get higher ratings than the US Men's Team.

And they should be paid for that.

Whats so hard to understand...

Sure the women won the cup...women also win the championship in other sports like the wnba.
But that doesn't translate into overall revenue for the company

Say the wnba team the liberty win the championship 10 yrs in a row and its rating are up. The Knicks suck and nobody is watching them

So should the wnba players be paid the same as their male counterparts?.i mean they dominate too..their viewership is up in the ny market.

No cause your not seeing the same effect throughout the wnba..everyone bandwagon jumps on a winning team. It doesn't mean the interest in women's sports is booming.

No..because overall the men's game takes in more revenue..has more fans and a sweeter tv deals..

Should congress just step in and demand the wnba pay the women the same..

Sure i get you luv your women's team and they are this powerhouse..
But the US market does not dictate fifa..it is a global organization. It's revenue from the US market is small

ACTUALLY, BEFORE YOU ACT LIKE RUDE VISITORS TO THIS PERSON WHO WROTE THE BLOG AND TELL HIM HE IS RUDE, GET YOUR FACTS FIRST BEFORE BERATING HIM.

YES, RAPINOE DID SAY GAYS ARE BETTER.

ALSO, IT IS SIMPLE ECONOMICS..THE MEN'S TEAM MAKES FAR MORE MONEY, IT IS NOT ABOUT GENDER STUDIES, FEMINISM, BUT SIMPLE ECONOMICS...I KNOW THAT IS A HARD CONCEPT TO SWALLOW.

Likesmatureones: i think often you have interesting things to say, but i think in the style you present them, people will not like it. That being said, it is your blog, and people will disagree, but i find it odd that people attack with names from the get go when you have not targetted them out to disparage them.

Your blog...keep to it...your views.
