    The average Black family in the USA has 10X less wealth than the average US White family. That doesn't mean that all Black families or people are poorer than White ones but that does mean that sports that have a high financial barrier to entry i.e. travel youth soccer, baseball, hockey, etc. are more likely to be an obstacle for young Black American athletes. Hence this is one of the reasons you saw so few Black athletes at high levels of US soccer in the past and why their current representation on the U.S. Women's roster should be celebrated.

    Since the team was picked by Emma Hayes, who like me is English, I reckon there is no doubt that this was on merit.

    more than representing your RACE or your GENDER. Scoreboard is the bottom line in competitive sports, NOT political correctness.

    Shouldn't the best get paid the most. 1) USA Men team is the best in the USA. 2) Any top 25 under 15 year old boys team is above the USWNT team. 3) USWNT team should be paid less that those boys. It's only fair.
