I don't have a problem with your opinion and can see your point of view
on the topic. Also, I don't have a problem with viewing athletes as being "sales" people. If people are going to look at this issue only in the US, then I am not sure how accurate it is to include the selling power of other countries which is what is being done when you take FIFA's numbers at face value. I guess that is why I formed the opinion that both teams should receive equal pay since there is no way to calculate the selling power of both the Men's and Women's team. Now if the selling power of both teams could be isolated, then I would have no problem paying the players what they are "worth."
Honestly, I wasn't expecting either one of us to change the opinion of the other. I saw it as nothing more than an opportunity to exchange and debate differing ideas/viewpoints/opinions since it was developing into a stimulating conversation.
