DC23MVP Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 How many people actually follow female athletics? I'm not a huge fan of female athletes besides the Williams sisters in tennis and a few basketball players such as Lisa Leslie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Iowa State women's basketball, but, hey, they average like 9900 fans and is one of the few ISU programs that isn't a huge disappointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHizzle85 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Not really. I believe that i'm aware of some of the bigger names in women's sports but I couldn't give you many details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Volleyball, Tennis, and women's softball. I can't watch women's basketball at all, not even to look at women cause damn near all of them are ugly. Sue Bird (and Candace Parker to an extent) is/are probably the only attractive WNBA player(s) that I've seen/heard at least. Iowa State women's basketball, but, hey, they average like 9900 fans and is one of the few ISU programs that isn't a huge disappointment. You really gotta get out of Iowa Alex.

Buehrle>Wood Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Women are very inferior to men in almost every sport. I can't think of one they are better at actually. Maybe gymnastics, but I'm ignorant of the sport. Why settle for a lesser product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostfan Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I watch WNBA games occasionally but since I don't have a favorite team I don't really care much. During the Olympics I pay just as much attention to the women as I do for the men. A medal for USA is a medal, doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman.

It's physiological. Especially when you talk sports like basketball, baseball and hockey. Women are pretty good at gymnastics, swimming, and track.

Milkman delivers Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 A while ago, I started a poll in this forum with just two possible answers. It asked what you would rather have, a WNBA championship in your city (or a new franchise and then a championship) or 5 dollars right now. I'm not sure a single vote was cast for the championship.

WilliamTell Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Tennis for sure. Volleyball and Beach Volleyball if I can find attractive ones. Gymnastics in the olympics if I can find attractive ones as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember that. In regards to the thread, I don't watch women's sports at all, except stuff during the Olympics. I mean, I go to a school that consistently sells out women's basketball games and has the most successful women's basketball team ever, and I've never watched a Lady Vols game except the 2nd half of the National Championship 2 years ago. I don't think I've ever seen a WNBA game either. But, that doesn't mean I won't watch women's sports. I just don't actively seek out to watch them. I'll watch tennis/vollyball/etc if there's not much else on TV. Edited July 6, 2009 by dasox24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would add tennis to the above list of womens' sports I will watch. Softball is ok but mostly b/c of Jenny Finch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
