Since the men are paid more than the women simply because the men's league has more fans and more people watching, despite the fact that the women get a bigger percentage cut, who would enforce equal pay? Who would be in charge of forcing random people to watch women’s soccer, lest they be charged with a hate crime? The U.N.?

Sorry, but I just don’t get excited about soccer. It is fairly new addition among high school and college sports. And $400 million for the men’s soccer team is absolutely ridiculous.

They’re getting 13% of gross receipts...the men get 9%.

They ARE getting paid more.

Forcing people to watch womens soccer would be a hate crime.

The women deserve to receive exactly the same PERCENTAGE of revenue generated as the men receive. As it is right now, they receive a higher percentage.

Let Bigmouth b’stard Shut his mouth and open his wallet and make up the difference.

Just what I was going to say but you said it with more flair....the old demon bastard has spent money buying DA’s, trying to overthrow the Trump administration, voter fraud, global warming agenda to name a few. Time he did something more worthwhile like buying the team and paying out his old butt to pay them and go broke doing it!

If Soros thinks they should have more money, let him open his own wallet.

$400 million was the pool of money for all the men’s teams at the last World Cup; not just for one team. Revenue from TV broadcast rights is huge given that literally half the world stops to watch the WC semis and Final.
