Women's World Cup - Yes It is Just as Exciting as the Men's

If you don't know much about the Women's World Cup in Soccer, here is a place to find information. 

Women deserve the same money, publicity, media coverage as the men. In our hierarchy where men are considered more valuable than women, we have a long way to go to even scratch the surface at equality in athletic opportunity in the United States.

For women there is NOTHING that compares to the fan following, media coverage, facilities, money, training opportunities, fame, etc. than Major League Baseball, the National Hockey League, National Basketball Association, National Football Association, etc. etc. etc.  Just because women have achieve a slight parity in their one national soccer team, parity doesn't occur in women's professional soccer in the United States by all the standards listed above.
