Once the Prem takes over the Women's League in England its over. Putting big money into is gonna change everything and its gonna KILL any efforts for a real league in the USA. Girls gonna be coming outa high school to go play for Lyon/Arsenal/City/ManU etc.
Also, I think the "our best athletes don't play the sport" argument doesn't do it justice really. The system isn't made to create technically sound players. When you look at the USWNT Heath, Rapinoe, Lavelle, Mewis, and to some degree Morgan and technically sound as fukk. And that's just in the starting 11.
Name me ANY USMNT member that could dribble their way out of a paper bag.

The men get told "be more athletic, have more hustle and you will win." And then the come up against a Belgium with a young Dries Mertens, Eden Hazard and KDB and got made fools of. If it wasn't for Timmy Howard that match woulda been like 14-0.
