A League of their Own

The difference between the popularity between men's and women's sports is simple. The main goal of sports is to play your best and win games as you entertain the audience. Entertainment brings in revenue for the respective sports. Men's sports bring in more revenue because they are more entertaining to the audience. More fans go to men's sports because of the entertainment factor and the talents of the players. Basketball is much more popular than soccer. Basketball survives due to the amazing athletes who help bring fans together. In this sport, there are more flashy plays, and is easier to watch since it is televised more. Soccer is less popular but survives due to the crazy fans. The fans are dedicated to soccer, and buy many tickets to games. Team apparel and fans both keep each sport alive.
