You can go to any men’s U15 or higher travel game, on any given weekend, and see better soccer.
This is what you get when you pretend women’s contact sports are even close to on-par with men’s.
“This is what you get when you pretend womens contact sports are even close to on-par with mens.”
That depends upon your interpretation. Are they really selling the sport or creating an outlet for women so it can be commercialized? And it starts at the lowest of levels with girls in little league baseball but boys not allowed to play little league softball. Forced money for girls and women’s sports in grammer school through the women in college. Off shoot programs never intended to be anything more than a social event using a sport as it’s draw like the WNBA, women’s softball, even down to lingerie football is for the commercial value as the leagues come and go with smaller draws and unfilled stadiums until their leagues fold.
You mentioned contact sports. Soccer isn’t even close to football and basketball. I trained people for years and I never came across a women that I would consider nothing short of meat trying to block an oncoming 300 pound lineman in a pit area that’s frothing at the mouth. But they pretend this illusion, don’t they? But if it was mixed, women would learn their over exaggeration painfully. Yeah, they can compete, for maybe a couple of plays before they get knocked into tomorrow. Reality doesn’t always make money, fantasy does.
