Cordeiro out after approving sexist defense strategy!
Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThey can sink or swim on their own. If the sponsors want a piece of all the money generated in World cup and Olympic years, they can agree to some arrangement concerning the NWSL as well.
If they go on there own, who is going to financially support this?

Originally posted by Unregistered View Postussf is never going to let them go (so its a mute point)...the womans lawsuit (although a noble fight) they will never win...the money is just not there to support it. pretty much nobody goes to watch a live womans game for ncaa or nwsl. Barely no body watches a womans game on tv....so where is the money going to come from?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostVery very strong during the Olympic years and the media right during those word cups are very very valuable. Enough to carry though the lean years.
The only way to pay women more money in a sustainable way is to build a real league where there is demand to watch. A league where a player can make a good living y simply being good at the game without having to be on the WNT.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostLean years for who? NT players only? Thats not sustainable. Have you see attendance figures?This desire to take womens national team soccer out of the context of womes soccer is self serving at best. Its all about feathering the nest for a select group of individuals. Its all about monetizing nationalism. Its why the WNT is full of politically motivated tenured vets.

Originally posted by Unregistered View Postcorrect...the market is simply not demanding enough for the womans game all year every year for pro teams. the WC and Olympics is not enough.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThe women are only big at the Olympics and World Cup. Their friendlies and shebelieve tour have very low ratings and only decent fans in the stand immediately following the Olympics and World Cup. There are no Olympic qualifying games and there are only 5 qualifying games for the world cup and even those get terrible ratings.. Three weeks of well watched soccer over a four year period won't sustain anything.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostUmm, because the She Believes Cup is aired on ESPN News (???) with absolutely zero marketing and promotion. I am in the publicity business and I can say first hand, whoever does the publicity for USSF would be fired by any other organization that had half a clue!

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostAre you implying that where an event is shown is not correlated to the perception of what the demand is? You think that simply pitting it on a better channel and upping marketing will attract enough viewers to offset that opportunity cost? This is the blind thinking behind this trial in the court of public opinion. In a business motivated by money, if anyone thought that there was money in doing this, they would do it.
