Was going to say that I didn't really care about proportional pay, although I'm sure that that is central to the case. I wouldn't mind the USSF subsidizing the women's team since their professional careers are always all over the place.

Looking at the NWSL, it appears that the USSF pays a salary directly to the national team players involved. I haven't seen that mentioned anywhere. Have we talked about that yet?
