On Saturday the U.S. Men’s National Team plays the Netherlands in the “knockout stage” of the World Cup, with at stake the opportunity to become one of the elite eight of global soccer.
Conservative commentator Matt Walsh, who has dubbed soccer “communist,” is not as impressed with the USMNT’s play as he is with their crappy prowess at dealmaking.

The made the agreement, and now like the whiny wokesters (if you sell out you become) they are — get what they deserve.

From the article:
“There was never any conspiracy to deprive female soccer players of fair compensation. They just generate less revenue. It’s as simple as that.”

“I’ve been devalued, I’ve been disrespected and dismissed because I am a woman. And I’ve been told that I don’t deserve any more than less, because I am a woman,” Rapinoe said at the time. She's a woman? News to me.

Yet in the end, he concluded, the men got “mugged” but deserve to be on the “losing end” because they were “afraid to say no … too intent on virtue-signaling, too fearful of upsetting the feminists.” I agree. Men keep capitulating to the most obscene of demands, then want to be seen as victims. No sympathy from me.

Rather watch women’s volleyball.

As long as they are biologically female that is.

“In some ways,” he said, “you could call it old-fashioned. The men are making the money and bringing it home to the female soccer players. The men are the breadwinners, and Megan Rapinoe and the female soccer players are like the housewives of professional sports.”Walsh said he may support such an arrangement, “if the women were upholding their end of the bargain, by, like, doing the men’s laundry and keeping their houses in order.”
“But they are required to do nothing, which again makes this unjust.

"I've been devalued, I've been disrespected and dismissed because I am a woman. And I've been told that I don't deserve any more than less, because I am a woman," Rapinoe said at the time. Well, no ... You've been disrespected and dismissed because women's soccer is an awful version of a sport that's already terrible.

This looks like Matt Walsh imposing his outrage on other people just to peddle his stupid article.

Rather watch women’s volleyball. That was my favorite spectator sport in High School.

What a narcissistic idiot. Nobody watches women’s soccer. I’d bet woman’s beach volleyball has way more viewers. With regards to Rapinoe, she(?) devalued her own self when she knelt for the national anthem. I have zero sympathy, and do not give one single F.

They deserve it for agreeing to it. Let them try to get out of it now!
I hope all the men (?) on the men’s team declare they are “trans” and join the womens’ team. They won’t have to do anything but will still be paid royally.

This will have the same effect as welfare. Women players get paid more for doing nothing, men players think “why should I try hard when half of it goes to someone else?”. They may as well go full communist, if you’re a successful player, you enjoy some luxuries, and if not, a forced labor camp.

I’m starting to wonder if she’s a biological woman and not a fake woman like Richard Levine or Bruce Jenner.
