Big Grin That was some kind of deal they made.

Since the USWNT has been more successful at winning World Cup's then the Men's team, should I assume that THEY have to split their winnings as well?

No, that’s ridiculous. The woman are married to each other.

It's absurd, but they agreed to it.

A bunch of mediocre men soccer players should identify as women and take over the women's league.

It seems to me that as it stands, the WNT wouldn't even have to be in a World Cup and would still make more money than winning a World Cup.

I suspect U.S. Soccer dictated the splitting of prize money.

If this seems insane, wait until the female players are all replaced by trans males and this policy isn’t rescinded at that point. They all could be using the same locker room but the males pretending to be female will still get paid for doing nothing. And actual female feminists won’t utter a peep of complaint at such lunacy!

I guess the wimmin won't be getting the undeserved windfall they'd hoped to get. The U.S. team was just eliminated in their match with Netherlands.

I'm good with that. Happy, in fact.

So which one of these two US Teams (mens/womens) is the WAGs (borrowing a phrase from the Brits) for the other?

Seems fair since the Dutch team manhandled the US team.

If they want to divide the fruits of their labor discretely within their organization, their decision. That they do this publicly and make a spectacle of it, idiotic and shameful.
