How many girls play soccer and how many play hockey? Horrible comparison. USA being dominant at a worldwide sport like Soccer is significant. Hockey is not that, at all.
-
Unionize to play in the Olympics? It's a privilege. The problem those ladies are going to have is they are making it about their income, while also throwing on "support" and terms like that. No, it's about you making more money because you don't have jobs but want to act like pro athletes. Women's pro hockey was DOA. Essentially, USA Hockey told them to go fly a kite.

Boom goes the dynamite!

This is going to be awesome to watch tomorrow night! Pumped.

USA Hockey just backed up what I have been saying all along: "USA Hockey's role is not to employ athletes and we will not do so". Amen.

Pay them 2K a month for four years to train for a two week event- really? lmfao. The US Olympic/USA Hockey program would go broke if they had to become every athletes main source of income. Plus, who says these players are going to actually make the team after they paid them all that money? Laughable.

Cool story, bro.
-
They want to be paid to train for one event a year and one Olympics every four years. The Men have the NHL so they don't care about training for the Olympics or Worlds, they just show up in shape already. That is the difference. The women act like this is their full time job and it's really not, but since they have nothing else to do (other than the NWHL, which is in trouble) they seem to want to get paid for staying in shape. Playing for your national team once a year is not a full-time job, sorry Lammy's.

Why though, aren't the skiiers all under the same umbrella? If she gets endorsements, fine. But shouldn't her USA 'salary' be the same as her teammates?
-
Question: how much do other Olympic athletes get paid per month.....Womens skiing, figure skating, luge and so forth? How much do Men's hockey players get paid per month?

Schloss is all in for the Women again on twitter. Tweeting and re-tweeting about it. What a crusader!

That's 5,000 to 1.

Watching MSU/UM too. Montana is bad. They can't score. Airball, bricks, you name it. -
What was the point?
-
The talent difference is astronomical. Effort and desire only get you so far. Last year's team was waaaayyyy better than this team. Period. Plus they had the cohesion and consistent effort.

UND is fine. Seales is playing well, as is Avant's. UNC hit some threes but the Hawks look like the better team. -
If there was ever a team that didn't deserve an NCAA bid, it's this UND team.

Why is athletics only having to cut 400K? Assume the other departments are cutting much more than that. No?
