Megan Rapinoe expanded on her criticism of Draymond Green on Wednesday, saying that his recent comments on women's sports and equal pay were "frustrating" and "not acceptable at all."

Not really a Draymond Green fan - actually, not even an NBA fan - but he has a point here. And it goes completely over Rapinoe's head. She apparently thinks that just because she plays the same sport as the men that she should make the same amount of money. Typical lefty - she has absolutely no clue as to how the real works. More fans plus play at the highest level creates higher revenue and better pay. Like it or not, a high-level college (maybe even high school) men's soccer team would annihilate any top-level women's team. Same with women's basketball. A top-level boys' high school team would annihilate the best team in the WNBA. Would like to see it happen someday to prove the point.

Oh - but according to Joe Biden there is nothing that men do that women cannot do...and do it as well. Yeah, Joe...whatever.

She’s very unladylike. Very uncouth.

And the revenue women sports generate vs men? You can bitch all you want but if no one is watching, you aren’t worth a penny more than your current paycheck.

Good info. The article excuses it by saying:

“Of course, this match against the academy team was very informal and should not be a major cause for alarm. The U.S. surely wasn’t going all out, with the main goal being to get some minutes on the pitch, build chemistry when it comes to moving the ball around, improve defensive shape and get ready for Russia.”

Sure - do they really think the woman wanted to lose to a U-15 group of boys?

A lesbian complaining about the way the world should be. Hey clown, stick to your cucumber and go away. Your morality precludes anyone taking you seriously.

And another thing...I bet the female athletes no longer participating in their sport of choice because you idiots allow men to play, would kill for your paycheck. Just STFU.

The only way women sports could garner enough interest to generate investment in the sport is if they played topless. People are simply not that interested in watching them play because in the grand scheme on professional sports they barely make the cut talent wise.

Yep. They might be top-level within their own peer group, but the physical differences between male and female are astronomical. Men are stronger, faster, and have much more stamina. Not even close.

She needs to check her white supremacist privilege and stop the hatred of black people. (Super woke mode)

Womens basketball is a woke loss leader. The lesbians that play just look like ugly men who cannot play very well.

Soon to be replaced by men who cannot play that well.

Why watch? No sport, no eye candy, no nothing.

"you showed your whole ass"

That is ghetto speak for, uh, who knows what. I really don't know. But a simple duckduckgo search will show she LITERALLY shows her whole ass (minus the megan rapinoe) with great regularity. Who's zoomin' who?

Yeah - it will be interesting to see what happens when the transgendered “women” (aka previously-known-as-males) insist on playing in the WNBA. What will the woke women professionals say then

These idiots do not have enough brains to figure out the left only leads them down the path of destruction. Hm...sounds like a verse from the Bible.

Fortunately Megan you dumb@ss the leagues are separate organizations and you have no legal call to take money from Men’s soccer. Womens soccer doesn’t make jackshyt because WOMEN won’t watch it. Lol.

Yeah - real classy woman there.

Good thing I am dog tired, because the picture of that in my head would have kept me awake all night.

Using her logic, peewee league football players should earn what top NFL players earn.

There is no equal pay here.

You are an entertainer and your job is to draw audience.

You are paid accordingly.

If you and your lady friends could compete with the men, there would be no problem with a co-ed league but, you can’t and never will.

No shame in that. There just certain biological limitations and advantages...

Oh, and you are contractors anyway...

so go make a deal...

OTOH, if they uh, attired themselves in the same manner as women’s beach volleyball, they might achieve a bump in viewership.
