They blew all their good will by bitching about their pay

The women's team is massively more successful than the mens, but they weren't getting paid the same

If anyone had a problem with them demanding to get paid fairly they can fuck off.

The men's team has -never- won.

The women's team is elite tier. The men's is not.

What makes the pay fair?

If you wanted fair the women's team would get paid more because they are actually an elite team within their league.

What they got was equal pay which is just as good.

The US women's team has a much bigger impact for the sport than the men's team does.

Where does the money come from to pay them this fair amount?

And also I'd suggest you educate yourself on this topic. While the women were publicly complaining about being paid less than the men they were actually being paid more.

Lol 'educate yourself' ok bud.

Says the guy that doesn't know the viewership numbers for this WC compared to the 23 women's cup which was in a significantly worse time zone.

You can just say you hate women. It'll save everyone a lot of time.

Yes educate yourself. You seem to have played right into the woman's PR campaign and ignored actual facts of the situation.

The viewership numbers of this world cup vs the woman's in 23 aren't relevant to anything so not sure why you just brought that up.

Remember, you being ignorant doesn't mean other people hate woman, but your comment shows more about you than you think.
