re: Wow, women's soccer is godawful

Thanks for the level headedness. One thing I didn't add is that I think that the best women's sports are "feminine" to a degree and unique. Examples are women's gymnastics which is both athletically amazing and gracefully beautiful, and have events like uneven bars and beam that men don't compete in. Figure skating, while certainly similar for men and women, looks so much better with women performing routines than guys. the sports that are the most athletically rooted (vs. skill) are the hardest to watch, so basketball is the one that looks so bad by comparison. I've never watched football or hockey and I'd imagine they would be similar. Soccer has a healthy mix of both athletic ability and skill so it is very entertaining to me...same with tennis and volleyball.
