Comments to Steve Sailer<\/a>:<\/p>\n

* I think the selling point is attractive girls.<\/p>\n

Women\u2019s basketball fails cuz of too many big ugly women.<\/p>\n

But soccer women look like \u2018girls next door\u2019, at least compared to beasties in some other women\u2019s sports.<\/p>\n

* Put them in bikinis<\/p>\n

* To make money they simply need their own version of the Lingerie Football League, and yes that\u2019s a real thing, just google and oogle. Incidentally, the only extended attention I have ever payed women\u2019s soccer was the last five minutes before Brandy Chastain un-jerseyed herself and then strained her neck veins in that triumphant roar from her knees. Why do girls play soccer? Cause playing soccer in college means you get tickets to the exclusive athlete party scene, a veritable stud fest. I swam every summer and so I learned early that girl\u2019s raw athletic ability peaks at about age fourteen. And yet we suffer them their pro leagues. Lingerie, please. <\/p>\n

* Interest in Women\u2019s Sports is just too periodic. And vulnerable to Lesbian or Roid Rage monstrosities.<\/p>\n

Look at Women\u2019s Tennis. Since the Williams Sisters showed that women with the approximate build of a Middle Linebacker could win and in fact dominate Women\u2019s Tennis, interest has declined. Billie Jean King and Martina Navratolova certainly undermined the idea of Tennis as a cute girls game. No woman wanting an Alpha Male (which is every straight woman) wants to be even thought for a minute as a full on Diesel version of a Lesbian.<\/p>\n

Nor does she want to be thought of as a Middle Linebacker in a Dress.<\/p>\n

By contrast, as you noted, the girly-girl women\u2019s ice skating for the most princessy-princess draws lots and lots of female viewers. Unless the sport is deliberately set up to exclude the most over Diesel versions of Lesbians and the most extreme Middle Linebackers, they\u2019ll dominate and drive away women and girl viewers. [I guarantee men were not watching the Women’s soccer team, Beach Volleyball being another thing.]<\/p>\n

Any attempt to make money off Women\u2019s Soccer will degenerate into farce. Will the Next Bruce Jenner play? Heck just for laughs you could reel in all the over the hill, indebted soccer players and have them \u201cself-identify\u201d as female. Play the women\u2019s team. Hilarity ensues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
