Therefore, the US women's team, which has dominated the sport for a generation, should be paid AT LEAST as much as the US men's team, which is a 2nd-tier team at its best. I only watch the men's team when they play Mexico - so I can root for Mexico - but I watch the women's team whenever I can because I like to watch world-class players in action.
