The USWNT commentary is always funny. People just skip the fact that College football subsidized the sport which is why the US had such a head start over everybody else with few exceptions.

Man I got some highlights to catch up on
But to be honest, I always see the biggest blowouts in women's sports. I mean in NCAA Women's basket ball it's not uncommon to see the 1st seed beat the 2nd or 3rd seed by 40-50 pts. The gulf in ability is mindblowing.
Never thought of it that wayThe USWNT commentary is always funny. People just skip the fact that College football subsidized the sport which is why the US had such a head start over everybody else with few exceptions.
What he said. It’s not a diss to the US but people should understand the full context.You ever heard of Title IX?
Title IX - Wikipedia
It's a law that passed to enforce gender equality in offering sports opportunities to men and women. If a school offers a men's sport, they have to offer a women's version.
Men's bb and American football make the most money in college sports, so the profits from those sports are used to fund the other sports, including the women's versions of those sports. So you see a rise in women playing soccer for scholarship opportunities after that law comes about. Gave us a huge head start.
Women's soccer is basically a co-efficient for how sexist you are as a country.Never thought of it that way
