Congratulations to the USWNT for bringing home the win once more! Hopefully this will mean they will get more money; a 50k bonus per player (compared to the 1.5 million a player for the Men's Team that wins the Cup) is a disgrace. The women's merchandise sells more AND more people watched their final in comparison to the men's World Cup; what they make now compared to the money they make for the league is a disgrace.

The eloquent Megan Rappinoe was on Anderson Cooper 360 this evening. If you can find it on youtube or CNN it is the conversation you want between two intelligent people.

Yeah they should get more, especially in comparison to the US mens team who aren't very good at times. In terms of soccer in general throughout other countries, I don't think womens soccer brings in as much revenue compared to mens soccer. Congrats to the US team. Are they heading to the white house next

No, they are not. No invitation has officially been extended either. I gather there is a parade in NYC on Wed. and Megan along with Alex will be on Jimmy Kimmel on Thurs.

I thought the parade today was wonderful, looked like so many people were there. Ugh! It got me so emotional. So glad NYC was the host for this event.
