Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 3185974, member: 7492"] Everyone loves a winner! The minor problem with this report is it specifies “games” which is unclear if that’s just gate receipts or other game sponsorships. I don’t think it includes television fees as that amount should be larger component (not motivated enough to see what the ESPN contract pays). It also doesn’t talk about corporate sponsors with their donations that go directly to that team and is also excluded. All that said, the US Soccer federation needs better transparency, more logic and a better public relations firm as this looks extremely bad for them. This only gets worse as the WNT has drawn well in France and has pretty good viewership. I wish them the best this WC and in their lawsuit as it seems to have strong merit! :) [/QUOTE]
