Women can't be paid equally because they're less popular!

Meanwhile cigs cost 10x the price in Australia compared to even NY.

americans can't grasp capitalism in players wages seeing as how their sports, ad revenues aside, are commie stuff as far as player transfer goes

Stats

Why yes, I'm a radical leftist and have to bark my ideology on a Taiwanese finger painting board.

You still don't understand our sports if you think they're communist.

Compare the revenue generated by the 2019 women's world cup to the revenue generated by the 2018 men's world cup and stop being retarded like a female sawker player.

Because we fucked our education and news so hard and deep that nobody can understand a statement or opinion more nuanced than hyperbole or analogies.

What stats? You think the best women players make as much as even an average man?

I said that based on what someone told me
Teams that fare worst at the past season, be it NBA or NFL, have the priority of picking the most promising player. WTF is that

The US didn't qualify for the 2018 World Cup, so I'm assuming the revenue was 0.

Perhaps you should stop spouting opinions on things you know nothing about.

>living vicariously through a women's soccer team
That's as cringe as regularly donating to a twitch camwhore

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Olha esse mongol

then enlighten me about the nfl draft

Lose weight

>jersey sales that are politically motivated
>relevant

I don't know that's why I'm asking. I assumed that male players on average perform better than even the best of their female counterparts.

Wait, so you like the system that allows an oil baron to just raid the coffers of any small team's promising players?

sure. this isn't MARIO KART LOL
or would you rather be hired by some shitty company despite being a fucking good professional?
gimme a break

Ok nice troll mate. Because nike = the whole market of football jerseys?

this. could even be some (((billionaire people-manipulator))) buying them up and then calling his (((reporter))) friends to write the story

Nike.com*

>they don't generate as much revenue as the men.
I didn't even know you get paid for playing with the national team, wtf?

ofc they do
that's their job

We don't view it as a woman's sport. It's just that athletically this is the highest a woman can achieve whereas with men there are other sports with more prestige.

I don't want a lot of soccer, but doesn't the national team only play together during large events like the WC?

Perform better in what way? You think professional athletes are paid by how fast they can run or how much weight they can lift? Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe each have 6 goals this World Cup. Could you please point out the last time an American male player scored 6 goals in a World Cup?

I'd rather there be some parity rather than the same one or two teams winning the league year in year out like in France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, etc

>this is the highest a woman can achieve
Tennis

Why can't people just admit that the american female soccer players are being woefully underpaid?

US Soccer doesn't pay them either. Their money comes from FIFA winnings.

No. Have you ever heard of an international break?

Excuse me, but isn't "soccer" a popular women sport on USA? Obviously people are going to pay more attention to the women teams than the non-existant men teams since for USA "soccer" is a women sport. Just saying that it makes sense that americans are giving so much attention to these women since for most of americans they are not even aware men play this.

If the USMNT wins the Gold Cup it will unironically be a bigger achievement than the women winning the World Cup

That's because their jobs have entertainment value. It's a sport but it also is their fucking job. Know how else you can make your team rich? Buying their merchandising, buying tickets, paying for pay per view. The reason you support a team goes beyond their trophy room but I think that's too alien for those born above Mexico to understand. Like we say here:
>You change address, you change cars, you even change your fucking, but the team you root for that's gonna be with you for the rest of your life. No matter how it fares. It's not about the trophy room

> because they don't generate as much revenue as the men.

Well that's true.

But you do know that jersey sales represent almost nothing in the revenues of a Football federation, right?

Most of what they earn comes from sponsoring (40%), TV rights (20%) FIFA endowment (20% if you perform well, a lot less if you suck), and the rest includes game tickets, merchandising and a lot of other shit.

Just to give you an example:
> Last WC generated like 4 billions for FIFA, and they gave back like 400M to the participating teams.
> This Womens WC is expected to generate 350M and FIFA will give back 40M to be shared between all the teams.

nobody as inferior as Thailand or even say #10 in the women's world cup plays in the men's wc, there isn't anything apporaching the talent drops off. there's a reason they can't even pretend to have the idea of expanding to 48 teams in the women's like the men's because the usa/japan/france playing a #48 women's team would be one of the most comdeic jokes in sporting history

>no.1-selling soccer jersey on Nike.com
Notice how they don't say it's Nike's No.1-selling soccer jersey

>500% greater this year vs. the same period in 2015
Notice how they compare it to the old female soccer jersey. Methinks they wouldn't hesitate to mention how it BTFO's the men if it actually did.

The team I've supported has never won a trophy in over 60 years so your condescending point is invalid. The NHL is also twice as old of a league as the BR soccer league, so your point's also retarded in general.

Who is pushing this USWMNT and USMNT shit?

I never heard those words until this worldcup and now everyone calls them that. I just say The USA. Fuck that jewish shit bro

good, i need that Tobin jersey

there's so much card shuffling in the description meant to basically lie without lying the bullshit is obvious if you're on to their game. problem is most just see #1 selling soccer jersey nike.

>buy the jersey of some lesbo whose name you didn't even know a week ago
This only serves to prove soibois are not only bandwagoners but also bad with money

So how are their salaries supposed to be determined?

Where can I buy used ones?

>comparing world cup year to non world cup years

cringe

it's not more popular, just kind of approaching similar. 4 people in this country can tell you anything about the women's national team outside of a month every 4 years

no one is mentioning how nationalistic americans get in these sort of things. if shitting in a box had a world cup every 4 years and it had a international following at all and it looked like americans might win it would be a national story while it was happening

>I'm a newfag so everyone else must be too!
Been watching women's soccer since 1999.

That's even worse LOL
>basically admitting you identify as a soiboi
LOL

Has it gotten noticeably better over the years?

>jersey sales skyrocket one year because it's suddenly a political statement to support the women's team
>will go back down when the trend dies in a few months
>national team doesn't even see much of a cut of those sales anyway
wow end the patriarchy right now

Of course.

>on nike.com
and into the trash it goes. most men buy their shirts in actual sports stores

slightly, the 1999 team played like 15 year old boys, the 2015 team played like 16 year old boys, but there definitely has been an upturn this year.

Tobin Heath in particular has top notch ball control, arguably on par with U21 mens. I didn't expect the headers to be as good as they have been either this year, usually women head to clear it and 50% of the time it just goes straight up (or out of bounds), but they are actually directing them decently

I'd say you to be a commie somewhere else but clubs here were founded way before your league even existed.

>laffs
Cringe

Also gymnastics

Lavalle was also really fucking good last game like the best I've ever seen a woman play

they don't.....again there isn't a problem here. generate more income and you will be paid more. the records are public knowledge....the federation isn't hiding anything.

You literally just said it's a woman's sport.

Nike actually puts effort into making and marketing their shit. Like adidas for Germany they get the first pick of the hot new design litter.

And their gear is swagged out for all the negro - loving, bisexual, female soccer fans who dream of being pegged by Rapinoe in the Ass while blowing Onguchi Onyewu and tribbing kT Morgan

Fags eat this shit up is what I am saying

>soul

>women
>sports

Absolutely sopa de macaco.

Imagine wearing women's soccer jersey

exception != rule

Why can’t argies win one single international trophy with “the best player in the world” on their team?

Market approach. You are worth what someone is willing to pay you.

Education is a meme people were always this retarded and it just got worse when we let women, blacks, and browns have a say.

"and browns have a say." /pol/ is over there, fren.
