some USWNT math: the U.S. will take home $3.25 million for its round of 16 exit.
that'll be added to the $13m the men’s team earned in qatar. 10% of the $16.25m total will go to U.S. soccer + the remaining $14.625m will be shared equally between both squads (~$298k per player).
life update: earlier this month i wrapped up my time @Sportico. i’m grateful for the opportunity @soshnick gave me three years back to join this team, and especially thankful for all that i learned from colleagues like @novy_williams, @DanielLibit + the rest of the staff.

also, for those *already* starting to chirp in the replies: a reminder that this arrangement would’ve benefitted the men’s players more than the women’s last go round, when the men’s team failed to qualify for the 2018 world cup and the women won it all in 2019.

This surprised me: The @CUBuffs currently make more from football ticket sales than eight of the other nine public schools that will be in the @Big12Conference next year.
And that's before the sales boost from @DeionSanders...
