It's not really about equal play, it's about equal revenue.  If they bring in the same revenue, I'm fine with the same pay.

If they are generating the same revenue they have a case. I've heard top women pro tennis players often make more than men. But then again, who cares? They can negotiate and get what they can. Whatever.

I saw somewhere they generate more revenue than the men, I did not read the article, it was in WashPo I think.

You're right, if so, negotiate, which they are doing. At the end of the day, you get paid what they want to pay you for what you produce.

I heard there was similar revenue as well...... This article argues otherwise. Maybe Walsh is playing with the numbers to make a point. Or maybe other arguments for equal pay are.....

In calculating "revenue", a person COULD include Nike sales of jerseys etc. which of course should be left out.

Why?

Sponsor money could easily be split as it relates to merch if Nike deals are not split up already between USWNT and USMNT. If women sell more it would be more evidence they should make more.

This seems right, though ratings have been huge for this cup so some of the lack of revenue falls on FIFA for not capitalizing on it. The problem for them is like all sports, current performances dictate future earnings. They are on a 2015 pay scale. 2019 should put them ahead of the guys.

Soccer is an organized game of keep-away. I'll pay attention when it surpassing hockey.
All professional women's sports are boring... as are most amateur female sports.
The only time I'm interested female sports... 1) when my daughter played or 2) a friend's daughter participated.

If the money is split, fine, but my guess is Nike pays for sponsorship a flat fee, which should be included.  Nike's revenue should be separate.

Break down of revenue. It's not even close.

DC is a symptom, not the cause. The cause is basic voter stupidity and economic ignorance.

I have to disagree with you.  Women's professional pole-dancing is riveting!

Girls should play chick sports. Like cheerleading, gymnastics, volleyball and tennis. (And competitive pole-dancing, I suppose)

And dudes shouldn't play chick sports. Neither on men's teams, nor "identifying" as women.

Tennis is a great sport, not a "chick sport."
