You get two things with women's sports that you do not get with men's.
1. The techniques and plays are easier to see because of the simplicity
and lower playing ability.
Women's sports are often more fun to watch because of slowness and simplicity of their games. It's a real plus that they are more attractive.
Cross Country/Track & Field (but it's rarely on TV)
Tennis
Gymnastics
Real Volleyball
Basketball (Although I do not like the uniforms as much as in the 1970s/80s)
Australian Rules Football (Although women do not play it, this sport will blow your mind if you have never seen it before.)
Rugby (The men's game is great. I have never seen women play on TV)
Get rid of the following sports for both men and women:
MMA( looks like 2 kids wrestling in the living room! )
Poker ?!
All-Star Wrestling (Dollars wasted)
Nascar
Beach Volleyball (Unless they come up with a more attractive pair
than Walsh/May. Watching those two pull their suits out of the crack of
their butts is not entertaining or sexy.) Lots of hotdogs on the men's side.
Soccer (a threat to Track & Field, although I see no reason why it should be.)
Lacrosse (A more legitimate threat to our sport, but it's not better)
Golf (Can you imagine if their dollars went to T & F!!!) Boring.
I love football but it keeps the other sports down because it has all the dollars. Can you imagine what ANY other sport would be like if it was
promoted/advertised/televised as football is? Athletics is not as inferior to football as many suppose it is. We simply do not have the power and dollars.
NASCAR is also a model for how a sport should be promoted.
Richard Petty loved interviews and advertising his game. Like the NFL he did this early in our nation's history.
The stars in our game did not get out and promote the sport. Some of that is due to they type of modest individual attracted to CC/Track & Field. We also had poor leadership via the AAU which has been well documented. What if our people on top had not been so selfish?
