US Women's National Team Players Association wants TRIPLE the pay over men's team.

[Handloader]

"The group argued the women don't deserve equal pay, but rather they deserve to be paid more than the men's team. Specifically, they argued for "at least triple the compensation provided for in the men’s agreement." A contact was offered for equal pay for men's and female teams the females rejected because they want more........

Soo, a bunch of lesbo lefties want more than they are due? Where's the news here...
C'mon man........

 

[candyx]

They don't have the balls to ask for a raise.

 

[Rthur]

Standard line of shit new wrapper.

[rhsc]

They're going to need to make a hell of a lot of sandwiches to justify triple pay. Better get started now, ladies!

Seriously, when their games draw triple the crowds of men's games and earn triple the revenue, then they can justify getting triple pay. Not a moment sooner.

 

[candyx]

I can see more pay if they wear crotch less shorts so they can do a jumping high scissor if they score a goal instead of just a high five.

 

[lonegunman762x51]

Women's sports are crap, except maybe tennis. They are usually a shit production, low scoring and boring as hell, even their own parents hate watching them play. Pay is based on a combination of skill, public interest and value of the sport based on revenue from TV broadcasting. If they broadcast women's soccer, it would cut kids TV time by 90% in the first year.

The audience of people watching a purple haired rug licker kick a ball is pretty fucking small, especially when you throw in their shit politics and anti-American bullshit. I'd rather do pay-per-view house painting.

 

[abn31c]

Fuck them and that stupid game. Plenty of free lesbian porn out there anyway without those bitches.

 

[GUN NUT in IA]

Women's sports are crap, . . . snip

Well . . . . maybe not all women's sports.

 

[candyx]

End of the month the game is like flag football you have to pull the string.

Uhh, that would be a spot foul......

 

[HeavyAssault]

A good round of testo injections should give them the "balls" they want and the pay they deserve.

 

[...]

tell them they will earn 3x the pay when they can draw 3x the crowds... they cant seem to understand that they arent being paid to play soccer, they are being paid to draw crowds.

hell, these hags cannot even beat a HS Jr. Varsity team...if i wanted to see shitty soccer, i can watch that for free at any rec. field in the country....im sure as hell not going to pay money for that shit.

 

[TheGerman]

Soooo....

They say they want this:

In contrast, we are committed to bargaining in good faith to achieve equal pay and the safest working conditions possible.

Get this:

The federation said it is "the best path forward for all involved" to be on a single pay structure and be aligned under a "single collective bargaining agreement (CBA) structure."

And then suddenly:

. The group argued the women don't deserve equal pay, but rather they deserve to be paid more than the men's team. Specifically, they argued for "at least triple the compensation provided for in the men’s agreement."


Yeah, you can all go get fucked now because your point not only isn't even valid anymore, its a complete fucking joke.

In women's football the US is probably one of if not the most popular. In overall world football, women's football doesn't even register as even existing.

Smart PR move on the U.S. Soccer Federation, but this is not an accurate representation of what was offered. They offered the same contract for prize money, not equal pay.

Effectively, this would take the bonuses from the Women's team for winning in the world cup and split it with the men's team who never seem to do so.

They make it sounds as if the players would have the exact same payout at the end of the year, but that is not what was offered at all. Its the same contract which because of the FIFA rules, would enable the men's team to take home more money and the women's potentially less.

It was men's team that filed an amicus brief supporting the women's team which argued for triple compensation on the new contract.

Here's the exact quote from the men's union:

"While the women are correct that the Federation has refused to provide them with equal pay, the reality is that equal should have been an absolute minimum under the facts of this case. Because of the Federation’s dramatic increases in revenue associated with the USMNT and USWNT in the years preceding the 2017 collective bargaining agreement, the women’s agreement should not have provided simply for appearance fees and performance bonuses equal to those in the men’s 2011 agreement; it should have provided the women higher pay. The USMNT Players Association expected the Federation to agree in 2017 to pay the women far in excess of what the men were being paid under their agreement negotiated in 2011 and was stunned to see that the Federation did not even agree to pay the women at the same level it had negotiated with the men six years earlier. See 5-ER-1070. Given the Federation’s dramatically improved financial circumstances, the women were due at least triple the compensation provided for in the men’s agreement."

Ding,ding,ding...winner,winner chicken dinner. This right here. Its a business.

cut them from the team flat out Id hire kids who want to play it's a game win or loose who can at least act like humans and show sportsmanship before paying that swine an extra dime let them all get real jobs .

 

[eca7891]

How about we just let them play with the men (snickers) and adjust the pay to match their performance.

Seems fair.

edit: so much win in that if you read it correctly.

No snickers warranted. Simply make everything equal, remove the gender discrimination and let all players try out for a single unified team. They either make it or not. Debate concluded. No bickering over what is male or female these days. No bickering over pay.

Hmmmmm first female nfl linebacker?

Ha Ha. If you can a genetically enhanced meaty woman big enough to play the position better than anyone else, who gives a shit?

 

[Im2bent]

I nominate this one for first try outs

“Sure ladies. If you can show me the business case”.

I say fuk em all and let em go back to the kitchen and make me a sammich.

Who the fuck watches women's soccer? I mean really?

 

[phantomskittles]

Dissolve the team? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Why the hell would anyone watch a bunch of overpaid lesbians kick a ball around when just about any boys high-school soccer team in the country would wreck them.

They took a page out of trumps book, ask for something so wildly over the top so when negotiations are finished you get exactly what you wanted in the first place.

 

[DocRDS]

I want triple pay too.

What was it the Rolling Stones said?

 

[AngryKoala]

If I remember correctly the women's team does bring in more revenue than the men's so the pay should be equal with maybe some sort of profit sharing for revenue obtained per group (revenue reward).

In the end who cares, women's soccer is boring to watch.

Maybe not if you have colorful hair?

 

[TurboTrout]

Want 3x the pay, generate 3x the views, maybe play in lingerie?

I know one of the only olympic events Ill have on is women’s volleyball, I have been disappointed by less ass slapping as of recent in the sport.

Call a spade a spade, unless you’re showing some tits and ass, if it’s straight physical performance watching women vs men, it’s like watching the soap box derby vs formula 1. Yeah yeah, science be mean yo

Unless it's the hair down by their beef flaps it won't interest anyone.

That would start the period

 

[sirhrmechanic]

Wait, what? Women play soccer?

Is this like after hours from their day jobs at the deli?

Just curious… do men get paid more for making sandwiches? Because it seems all the best chefs are, in fact, men. What’s the pay scale for sammich making?

Women’s soccer… who knew?

[GBMaryland]

Wasn’t the deal that they were trying to get the bonus structure from the male team… But they actually get salaries and have a bonus structure and ultimately make more money than the guys do?

they also get benefits the male team doesn’t get such as healthcare and childcare…

Lastly that the male team all happen to be on professional teams and get all of their benefits from their day jobs working in professional soccer, whereas the women do not… which is exactly the reason that they get salaries, and healthcare, and childcare, and a bunch of other stuff including a reduced bonus structure compared to the men; The men only get bonuses for games that they win successfully.

Are we still talking about sammiches?

Childcare is no incentive for them… they are all carpet munchers! Offer them low cost batteries or doorknobs or something….

If anyone even cared that they existed, they wouldn’t have to beg for money. People would throw it at them. When Subway franchise owners BEG corporate to drop the dykes from sponsorship (really… a sammich company) then it seems they are not pulling an audience. Or worse, are driving customers away in droves… then no paycheck for you, Butch.

Get woke… go broke. Applies especially to worthless soccer dykes.

Equal pay, yes.
Three times more than the males?
They better have some female versions of Ronaldo on their side, and the sponsors as well.

Why would you give them equal pay, when as a entertainer they don’t generate equal value?

If I have the pay the same, why not end the women’s team and start another men’s team that will get more viewership thus generating more views and make my P&L list happier?

shits worth what the market will bear, if folks ain’t watching women play soccer as much as men play soccer, female professional soccer players are obviously worth less. This is like grade school economics.

US women's soccer games now generate more revenue than men's—but the players still earn less

U.S. women's soccer games have generated more revenue than U.S. men's games for three consecutive years.

In the U.S. they generate more...globally...they do not. If anything, the men should be getting paid less than the women for their poor marketing performance.

Godam how many angry lesbians are there? Or is the us mens soccer attendance that dismal? I gotta say I love the sport but I do not watch any us soccer, it is just sub par when compared to the rest of the worlds playing level. And by rest of the world I mean Europe.

Most in the US don’t give a shit about soccer, so might not be the best market to analyze

Soccer is for drama queens.
Rugby is better.

Soccer is what snaggletoothed foreigners watch.

Next, the women’s curling team will be demanding more pay because they find sweeping to be demeaning…

And they probably have a bigger audience than soccer….

The original article was revolving around the discrepancy in women's soccer pay in the U.S. I don't think it is a global initiative, just a U.S. one. The only market that should be analyzed regarding the original topic is the U.S. market.

 

[supercorndogs]

Isn't this a contract for the World Cup? In which case the revenue generated by the team ,in the U.S, doesn't matter. Its how much money they generate from the tournament.

Did the women generate more money over the last three years at the world cup because they played more games before loosing out?

 

[ACard]

I guess they figure two bumps and a hole is worth triple the price....
