Good sport always finds its way. I agree with you totally on this one. Women's football is not as attractive to watch as men's football and so it should not be expected to have the same viewer participation or funding. Women's cricket though is actually getting better and better in quality and it is not being promoted in the way women's football is being promoted. As a result women's cricket is growing year by year on strength of its quality and skills of its players. As I say if quality of women's football improves then viewership and financing will increase automatically. Women’s cricket is the only true ‘women’s’ sport I will actually watch. Women’s football is absolutely crap. The product is so far away from the men’s it’s actually a chore to watch. The best thing about women’s cricket, and it has been mentioned several times, are the keepers. Sarah Taylor and Alyssa Healy are probably the best two ‘glovers’ in the world ATM, especially considering that keepers nowadays are primarily selected on their batting, rather than keeping ability. The saddest part of female sports though is Wrestling and the Lingerie Football - for obvious reasons. Soft Core porn with a ball. Much like a tennis game featuring Anna Kournikova or Eugenia Bouchard.
I will watch women's tennis and volleyball (indoor volleyball, not beach volleyball, so no perv factor there). Football, only during the World Cup and the Olympic games.
