Possibly but essentially the focus of the lawsuit was on inequality of other factors as well.Didn't the women only get paid more because they won something? If the men had won something as well they'd have been paid a lot more than the women. That's not really equal pay is it?
Once again, the lawsuit was not about equal pay but about equal working conditions and promotion.I think they should have equal pay as they soon as they can beat the boys u15 team. That seems fair.

Really not how sports economics works though is it?Fair enough. I think if they can beat the boys u15 team they should get equal working conditions and promotions. That seems fair.

The 50th ranked male tennis player would beat the best female tennis player. But the world's best female tennis player earns more. The reason? Probably revenue generated.
If you bother to look into the story and reason for the lawsuit you would see it goes past the generic equal pay discussion.
But for some reason many men are bothered by women players asking for better conditions. Most of the posts in the first 6 pages of this thread are disgusting.
Well it's a discussion board so we are going to discuss the issues presented.I ain't gonna argue with you mate cause you seem to care. I don't give a fuck about this.
My general view is life's hard, You want equality make your sport more watchable, or appreciate what you got and shut your mouth. If you want more benefits elevate your sport or go work another career.
There's a million causes more worthy of your time than this.

If you don't like something, quit.Awful attitude to have. You're entitled to disagree, but I simply cannot understand your take on life.

I'd have thought winning the world cup would have elevated the sport for the US women.That's what they're trying to do.

You dont give a fuck so much you posted in two separate threads ludicrous comments about it?
What exactly don't you understand?
This whole "shut your mouth and appreciate what you've got because life is hard" approach. Whether you like women's football or not, or whatever sport or entertainment medium you want to use as an example, you can't just expect people to put up and shut up. That's not how life works. If it sucks then do something about it. Improve it. That's how we progress and evolve.
Here we go Mr sanctimonious in the house. Why is it ludicrous. If the governing body thought this "cash cow" was so important why haven't they done anything?? Why do these woman have to go to court.
Is it because woman's football is so uncompetitive that even if the whole team quit they could find a whole new team that would be competitive by the next world cup.
Life ain't fair.
Didn't the women only get paid more because they won something? If the men had won something as well they'd have been paid a lot more than the women. That's not really equal pay is it?
