How are they not equal? Our men suck, and the women are good relative to their competition.
So the best team in the WNBA should make the same as a middle of the road team in the NBA? Or the players for the best team in League 2 should make more money than Everton's players? See how fricking stupid that logic is? Bc our men's team doesn't suck. We're one of only 8 countries to make the round of 16 in 3 of the last 4 world cups, along with Germany, England, Argentina, Netherlands, Mexico, Brazil and Spain. Of those 8 only Brazil, Germany, and Mexico have made the knockouts in all the last 4.
Teams not on that list? Italy, France, Colombia, Uruguay, Belgium. When it matters the men's team tends to deliver.
No other country gives a shite about women's soccer, or really women's sports in general. Making the round of 16 in the men's world cup is just as difficult if not more difficult an accomplishment than winning the Women's World Cup considering our position and resources in both relative to other countries.

I had a response all ready prior to your post and my computer connection went down. Didn't have the energy to do it again

I don't see these two statements as being connected at all. If I was not clear, I never meant to say anything close to that. However, if the revenue in the WNBA was the same as the NBA, the pay would be the same. Why shouldn't it be?

I do. And I never said anything like that. Perhaps you are taking the overall argument of some and projecting on me.

Ah, so top 16 is fine for LSU this year?
