one reason i adore women's sports is because large portions of every fanbase aren't fooled by bullshit. most fans in men's sports accept pro-owner/anti-labor arguments, but nwsl and wnba fans right now are both saying 'nope we see what you're trying to do, just pay players what they're worth k thx.'

player salaries should definitely be influenced by award lists, what could go wrong

congratulations on a history full of lawsuits, firing casey stoney while she was out of the country, hiring jill ellis, landon donovan, and rebecca lowe's husband, losing naomi girma and jaedyn shaw, forfeiting a home game due to a poor pitch that also tore megan rapinoe's achilles, and so much more

My silly NWSL take is teams should be required to spend the entire cap always, and if your contracts aren't taking up cap space, leftover should be divvied up among all players. The accountants will get mad and make you sign good contracts so they don't have to deal with that math.

see this is where my concern about this lies, this is only going to immediately apply to like 4 teams

if you have a balon dor nominee, congrats the cap doesn’t apply, if you don’t, piss off

The high impact criteria is bullshit, likely would result in racist outcomes and the NWSLPA should think long and hard before agreeing to it.

On the one hand, more ways for players to be paid what they're worth is good.

On the other hand, tying it to metrics like 'commercial profiles' seems like a way the Bandas and Chawingas and Manakas of the world could have their earnings capped for no good reason.

turns out signing a cba then vetoing a proposed contract by claiming it "violates the spirit of the rule" gets the attention of contract lawyers and congressional oversight committees
The text of this letter, reported on earlier by @meglinehan.com, is definitely worth reading, but the phrase "raises significant oversight concerns" should be a 🚨🚨🚨 moment at the league office.
It is critical that collective bargaining agreements be honored in accordance with federal labor laws—especially at a time of tremendous growth for women’s sports.

All women—including women athletes—deserve fair pay and to be treated well at work.

A rule change on the NWSL salary cap is imminent from the NWSL board of governors that could help pay top players like Trinity Rodman. No new contract yet though — and Congress has taken interest, too 👀

NWSL board in advanced talks to add funds to pay players like Rodman competitive salaries: Sources
Trinity Rodman's ongoing negotiations were the impetus for the board vote, but sources say the rule is bigger than one player.
