How delusional are you to not understand an inferior viewing experience/product.

It's the same product at slower speeds and lesser physicality.

If they focused on differentiating the product, as opposed to telling people they should care just as much as the men's version, maybe they build some viewership and starting getting paid more.

I actually still have a perfect 😂😂 I have no idea what I’m doing

The best thing for player salaries would be more loss of affiliation. It's all stockholm syndrome. Imagine if there was actually competition for players and not just 1 entity. Minor league basketball players get payed more because they can play in Europe so the NBA has to pay them to keep them. Maybe more Americans need to go to Japan and Korea.

Virginia didn't help either

>For just the 11th time in NCAA March Madness history, a 15-seed has upset a 2-seed as Princeton knocked off Arizona 59-55 on the opening day of the tournament. > >This is the third straight year a 15-seed topped a 2: Saint Peter's topped Kentucky last year, and Oral Roberts defeated Ohio State in 2021.

And just like that my bracket IS FUCKED

Lmao yea it’s not at all because I want to see the best players in the world play at FIFA and the women’s teams get beat by U16 men’s (boys?) leagues

"used with the intention to shoot people" was the line. Buying a gun is not using a gun.

You're trying to be pedantic about it but it doesn't even fit literally.

One major reason why Americans don't watch women's soccer is a lack of historical exposure to the sport. The United States has a strong tradition of men's sports, with football, basketball, and baseball being the most popular. These sports have been around for a long time, and their popularity has been passed down from generation to generation. Women's sports, on the other hand, have only recently gained mainstream attention, and it will take time for them to catch up.

Another factor contributing to the lack of interest in women's soccer is media coverage. Major news outlets and broadcasters have historically favored men's sports, devoting more airtime and resources to them than to women's sports. This has created a self-fulfilling cycle in which men's sports receive more attention because they are more popular, and women's sports receive less attention because they are less popular.

Cultural attitudes towards women's sports also play a role in the lack of interest in women's soccer. Women's sports have long been seen as inferior to men's sports, both in terms of athleticism and entertainment value. This attitude is reflected in the way that women's sports are marketed, with a focus on the athletes' appearance and personality rather than their performance on the field.

Finally, some people may simply not be interested in soccer, regardless of the gender of the players. Soccer has struggled to gain a foothold in the United States, despite its popularity in other parts of the world. This may be due to a lack of familiarity with the sport, a lack of access to quality facilities, or a preference for other sports.

In conclusion, there are several reasons why Americans don't watch women's soccer, including historical biases, media coverage, cultural attitudes, and personal preferences. While progress has been made in recent years to promote women's sports, it will take time for them to catch up to the popularity of men's sports. As more people become exposed to women's soccer and recognize the skill and athleticism of its players, it is possible that interest in the sport will grow.

But backflip

The men are watched more.

This article is from last September.

I'm not sure why you keep using these long, single paragraph diatribes to spoon feed it to me, I get it. Professionals in all arenas of skill that do it on a high level are utilizing performance enhancing tools. I'm not doubting you.

I'm just saying let some tier of athletes go whole hog and take the bottle of roids so we can watch the spectacle.

How many F2 races have you ever watched? Are you shocked F2 drivers don't make as much money as F1?

Omg that's so sexist!

What time is Real Housewives on again?

A friend of mine was smart enough to ask for a signing bonus when he was drafted. It helped having a cushion for those minor league years. They weren’t offering so he just asked and they coughed up a hundred grand. Pretty good money for 1990.

The funny thing is when people bitch about this they can't name a bunch of players nor are they buying the jerseys or other merchandise associated with that team.
