| Topic | Judge rules AGAINST US Women's Soccer team in equal pay lawsuit |

The way the two different contracts are structured made this weird to look over when both sides were saying what little they could to the public. Hopefully the womens team re-structures their deal if its not working out for them since they really are the flagship of US Soccer. What's weird is the fact that they were given the option in 2016 to have the exact same contract as the men's team and actively turned it down in exchange for the offer they took. They clearly thought that they were getting a better deal at the time. Klausner noted that representatives for the players rejected a pay-for-play model identical to the men early in those negotiations in 2016. In later negotiations, the players offered a counterproposal with lesser bonuses than the federation's offer in exchange for more contracted players and higher base salaries -- benefits not part of the CBA between U.S. Soccer and the men's union. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
