"All we ever seem to hear from either team is complaining. It's usually about money, and it's usually to the effect that more of it should be going into their pockets. I won't apologize for finding it irritating..."Actually, I've been quite critical of the approach taken by the men as well. And, I've never suggested that there should be "no" compensation; I've suggested that the players could have focused on things like creature comforts, training, etc while also asking that the money they earn get pumped back into the grassroots system.

The reality is that the CSA signed a legally binding contract that bet against their own national teams. I don't like it any more than the players do. But it's a binding contract and restricts the money available for the players' purposes. Sinc - who I have a ton of respect for - has basically demanded that the contract just be torn up.
Who's in the stone age, exactly?
Your being irritated doesn't put food on women players plates or pay them for lost opportunity doing other work. You have to toughen up mentally!
That was my point in my stone age post. It's not good news for the CSA that the stories are negative for their brand and sports management in Canada as most stories like hockey are negative.
You're not exactly the broadest gauge thinker on TakethePiss if you're not up on how to get around contracts and binding agreements.
