The fruits of the new agreement between the U.S. men’s and women’s soccer teams is about to pay off.

Under the equal pay agreement signed this year, both teams are splitting the prize money for the World Cup. That means that both teams get $6.5 million for the men’s team beating Iran to advance to the round of 16 and will continue to split the prize money down the middle.

The terms, agreed to in May and formally signed in September, put both teams on the same payment model through 2028.

Socialism is awesome, ain't it...

It's like the men's team got a divorce and the women's team took half their shite.

The women couldn’t even beat a group of high school boys, and yet they get half?



Are they married to the men’s team?

A good time to post the clip of Chappelle's take on women equality.

I'm much less opposed to the soccer teams splitting revenue compared to the WNBA players who think they deserve an equal portion of revenue as the men when their league only loses money.

If you don’t like then I just suggest you become really good at soccer, get on the team and advocate for your preferred split. Otherwise these two private organizations can do whatever revenue split they want.

Man, thats tough. If I were a male soccer player there is a pretty large part of me that would want to walk out on that shite.

Of course the women want this, they get to do nothing and reap the benefits

The mens team should’ve said frick off, win and make your own damn money and don’t come after ours since you did nothing for it

Yea...in today's world of being a public figure you honestly think they had a choice? The outrage had they publicly said "nah" would've been enormous.

But hey....this is everyone voted for. Now you have to live in it.
