    USA Women's Hockey team boycott
    http://amp.usatoday.com/story/99695830/

    Enjoy this one boys. These chicks not realize that nobody wants to watch women's hockey? It's no different than NBA vs WNBA. No viewers, no ratings, no advertisers, no money. Are they supposed to take money from the men to pay from this? I say let em boycott, nobody cares about that shit anyway.

    its unfortunate that these women who are some of the best at what they do get so little recognition but yeah..... noone really gives a fuk about women sports. i think i heard the men will only boycot if usa hockey uses replacement players. they should just let the women sit out all together so the men will still come out

      Just pay em what the men get paid. Not like it's a big deal. If not, just find scrubs to play if it doesn't matter

        Olympic Mens hockey makes a ton of money, Women not even close. Thus no dough for the girls. It's fair.

          Same shit different sport. It seems none of these women grasp the concept of basic economics. Just because we have title 9 laws doesn't mean people are actually going to watch their product. If they want to be paid then find a way to make people want to watch their league or sport. Bitching about it and boycotting isn't going to do anything for them.

          I love that NCAA commercial for women. How it ends "genders don't play sports, athletes do". Its almost like it they are trying to throw us a guilty trip for not caring. He is an idea, "contracts don't pay for themselves, ratings and tickets sales do".
