>CHICAGO -- The U.S. Soccer Federation disclosed financial data this week that disputes claims the women's national team is compensated unfairly in comparison with the men, and says its data was misinterpreted in the federal complaint filed by five stars of the World Cup championship team who have charged their employers with wage discrimination.
>"Some of the financial information that's been provided has been either inaccurate or misleading," USSF spokesman Neil Buethe said. "We wanted to share this information to help provide clarity."
>While the women in the filing say they have earned nearly 25 percent less than their male counterparts this year, the figures supplied by the USSF show that for the 25 top-earning U.S. national team players over the past four years, 14 of whom are women, the average compensation is $695,269 for the women over that span, compared with $710,775 for the men, a difference of 2.2 percent.
>In 2015, 14 of the 24 women's players earned more than $300,000 in salary plus benefits, and no one earned less than $249,000, according to federation numbers, adding that the top male player earned just more than $178,000 in salary in 2015.
>USSF chief financial officer Eric Gleason said the USSF numbers also show that for the past eight years, there has never been a year in which the player-compensation-team-revenue ratio was greater for the men than for the women.
>The USSF's disclosure of its fiscal summary for the past eight years, which covers event financials, advertising expenses and player compensation for both the men and women, came in response to charges filed three weeks ago with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission by veteran players Hope Solo, Carli Lloyd, Alex Morgan, Megan Rapinoe and Becky Sauerbrunn.

>yfw the patriarchy justifies discrimination with facts
Why do you pay your women more than your men in a sport where men are better than women?
>>66986877
And they probably generate less than a tenth of the profit the USMNT does
Jesus christ I hate this new theme of forced 'equality' and force 'freedom'
>>66986959
What are you going to do about it?
Complain on a taiwanese cartoon imageboard?
>tfw no more whining.
Why do you have to ruin everything?
Why don't the men complain about this? Women should be paid significantly less than men
Getting paid that kind of money for the level of football that they play is obscene.
>>66986877
>h-here's our spin
>listen to OUR spin, not theirs
These "facts" are hardly conclusive. When you start saying things like "14 out of 24 women earned more than $300k" without providing any context, it's pretty obvious you're just trying to use a number that sounds high to the general public.
At first i thought the USWNT claims were bullshit but i looked at the financials and they literally bring in way more revenue than the men do. If you made millions for your company while some lazy sack of shit got paid more than yiu, you'd be pissed too.

>but i looked at the financials and they literally bring in way more revenue than the men do
In 2015. Which was a world cup year for them, and a nothing year for the men, except for the Gold Cup, which nobody cares about anyway. The women get BTFO over a 4 year cycle.
>>66986877
>Implying this will stop them
When has factual data stood in the way of feminism?
>>66986951
Women here care more about soccer than men, mostly. They buy more shit.
>>66987080
Obviously you're shitposting, but the women's program has received more than their fair share for quite some time. They making more money now and they'll restructure their deal with that time comes, but they were hemorrhaging money for awhile.
>>66987094
I'll admit i didnt look at prior years or think of that. The USSF data still sounds like they're stretching to find a way to present the numbers that sounds good.
SEXIST

And the women's "projected" numbers don't?
womens teams are literal dogshit in terms of ability, these greedy cunts should consider themselves lucky to be getting paid at all
>>66987080
>>66987159
You sound like all the other uninformed retards who spout about things they clearly don't know about or understand.
>Women skew facts in their favor by OUTRIGHT omitting the numbers that would blow their case the fuck out
>Women using "projected" revenue numbers to argue their point
How is 14 of 24 players earned more then 300k w/benefits with NONE of the 24 earning less then 249k w/benefits in 2015 numbers without context? Can you just not read? This whole lawsuit is bullshit and will get exposed as such.
Did you also know the USSF essentially pays their Club contracts as well? Because the WNSL makes fucking nothing and would dissolve without the USSF subsidizing its losses like the NBA does to the WNBA.
>>66986951
The men get make a lot of money at their clubs and mainly represent the US to aim for glory, whereas the women make shit at their clubs and represent the US because it is their primary source of income
>>66986951
>>66987000
>>66987027
Because the women are champions and have won 3 world cups in the process. Despite the level of play the Women's World Cup and the Women's National Team in general within the USA draws more people, more revenue and advertisers than our men.
In all honesty the money is with the women not the men.

Disgusting.
I only watch their vids to have a cheeky wank over Ana desu
>>66988505
The point of the lawsuit about equality, not about merit based salaries.
If they had said "we make the federation so much money, we should be paid more" I would have been behind it if it could be proven. But they didnt. They said "we should be paid as much money as the men", and now it turns out the 5 ringleader are likely the player's making the most money and making a lot more than the men
>>66986877
I'd just disband the team tbqh and say if you want a team organise it yourself. Not worth the hassle to keep some sjws or feminazis happy. It's not even decent football to watch nor is it very popular or lucrative.
>>66988505
>the women are champions
lel big fucking whoop, the competition is truly atrocious and they're barely any better themselves, they are champions of a special needs tournament
>womyn
>>66988505
>Women's World Cup & USWNT draws more people, more revenue, and advertisers then our men
How can one person get absolutely every single thing wrong.
>>66987080
Uhh, I truly don't think the women provide more revenue than men in ANY competition, whether it's clubs competition or NT competition. In fact, I'd be surprised if they generate a 1/10 of what men generate.
Women's NT merchandising (t-shirts and shit) maybe gets more revenue than Men'NT, cause that's Murica after all, but that's still peanuts anyway compared with the big source of money that is tournaments moneys, tv rights and etc.
>>66988551
You know what the sad part is? They probably are adding in the men's club salaries as well so the values are skewed even more in their favor. Because getting a salary increase would indirectly affect the salaries in the WNSL because the USSF subsidizes the losses so the league doesn't fold.

they're certainly better than the Waifuland national team
>>66988619
No, I don't think they are. They mention that they're adding in MNT club bonuses, which are higher than the WNT club bonuses. What skews the numbers is, whereas the WNT over an 8 year period got MORE money compared to the revenue that they generated (e.g 122 percent, 150 percent), the MNT got 20-30 percent of the revenue that they generated.
For every dollar the MNT makes, the USSF gives them 20-30 cents. For every dollar the USWNT makes, the USSF gives them $1.20 or $1.55.
