They're in a league of their own alright
There are a few reasons as to why women's sports rarely succeed as professional sports. The only two that have survived are basketball and softball. A big reason why softball survives is because not a lot of men play softball. One could say it is more of a "women's sport". Women's basketball will always be a mystery to me. It has nothing to do with gender, but these players aren't Lebron or Kobe. It's a matter of skill and talent that can not and has not been brought to the plate by the WNBA. People like to watch fun and exciting games which is why I will never watch women's basketball. I would have thought if anything, women's soccer would be there instead of basketball because soccer is a world sport. They could find a way to make an international league for women's soccer. Women's softball could be considered "more popular" because nobody watches men's softball if that's even a thing. Basketball is pretty popular, but I don't know one person that will sit down and watch women's basketball. Soccer is obviously the world's most popular sport. Under that lie football, hockey, basketball, and baseball. (Not in any order).
