I think a better analogy between WNBA and soccer is that WNBA is where you get the people least likely to play basketball well to play basketball, and soccer is where you get people to use the least effective part of their bodies to control where a ball is sent.

Soccer probably originated with victorious tribes kicking the heads of defeated enemies around the field. I do not know why anyone would think it is a sissy sport.

Amen, esp as its haters love a game where they pat each other’s backsides OR where the QB has his hand on another man’s ass for four hours, and they all were cute little pads.
