Troll.
They bring home gold medals.
They have won the World Cup four times.
The men never won any big tournaments.
Are you talking about the US? The US men’s team is terrible.

Sure they need to honor the current contract and then renegotiate...
But
Women and their work have been intrinsically undervalued for all of history. The idea of parity is new, and will take decades to correct. I don’t blame any women for becoming infuriated at the injustice of that.
That has nothing to do with this case. They were a bunch of whiny brats trying to renegotiate their contracts through the media with deceitful tactics. Such a nasty, entitled lot.
I've yet to meet a person who uses phrases like this to describe other people that is a kind and generous person worth spending time with. Regardless of how warranted the accusation is.
Bad behavior should be called out. Deal with it.

The real issue is that what they really want is a cut of the FIFA money that the men get from the men’s World Cup, a competition in which they do not even participate. That is really what they are asking for. They want to be subsidized by the men. They want to have the best option from each compensation package and get all of the upside that the men have, while still keeping all of their guarantees and downside risk protection. Not only that, but these older USWNT players have negotiated guaranteed places for themselves such that there are only a few spots left for talented up a coming players to compete for on the team. Sounds really great for the development of the women’s game........Entitled, money grabbers.
See prior post. The women's teams get 20% of all World Cup revenue versus approx 7% for the men. The difference is the men's Cup is popular. The women's, while more so than in the past, is not even close and doesn't generate a fraction of what the men's WC does.

No they haven’t. That’s a leftist lie.
Yes they are. You can’t possibly be that ignorant. It’s not only about dollar comparison of the same work. Work that is “women’s work”- childcare, teaching, domestic work... it’s is seen as less valuable by virtue of who traditionally performed the job.
Still false. Please regurgitate some more leftist talking points like a penguin full of half digested fish.
