US Women's Soccer: We want equal pay ....wait, nevermind. - trian1 - 04-26-2016
Many are aware that the US Women's Soccer team filed a suit with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission concerned that they were not receiving enough pay compared to the men's team. Well, U.S. Soccer responded with facts, and all the sudden equal pay is not looking so good anymore...
Report: U.S. Soccer pay data paint different picture
A few points raised by U.S. Soccer:
- Of the 25 top-earning national team players over the past four years, 14 are women and 11 are men.
- Of the 24 women's national team players under contract with the federation in 2015, 14 made more than $300,000 in salary plus benefits and none of the other 10 made less than $249,000. The top men's player earned just more than $178,000.
- In no year was the player-compensation-to-team-revenue ratio greater for the men than for the women. (A clause in the women's collective bargaining agreement would trigger a payment to the women if it was.)

Stop introducing logic and data into this argument. It's all about feelings!
