Men sports are more favorable than women sports. When you turn your TV and flip it to ESPN do you see women sports or men sports? Men correct? Do you see women 10 percent of the time? Despite the stats, men sports get more attention than women sports. “Although many women’s leagues executes seem loathe to admit it, the biggest audience for the sports is men” –Alyssa Roenigk. The only time women get more than five minutes run time on the air of ESPN is when popular men sports are on lock down. While men can have an “off” game the same time a woman can have an “on” game, however, men mistakes are shown on TV rather than the women spectacular performances. Men can have at least 10 highlights of their mistakes while women might not get one highlight of their game. While Maya Moore was in college she only had highlights a few times a night no matter how good she played, but John Wall Senior year he could have a game where his shots wasn’t falling, but he still had highlight of a bucket he did make. When Emmitt Smith retired he was on ESPN, the news, new paper articles, and advertisement. When Lisa Leslie retired she was only on one episode of ESPN. Can you buy a women’s sports game? Is there a face to represent women sports? Did you know there was a Women’s Major League Softball? Women sports are sidelined while Men sports are worshiped by the press and the fans. Angel McCoughtry has an average of .429% field goal .269% 3 Point .779% free throw and 18.4 points per game. Rudy Gay point average is 17.8, his free throw is .768 percent and his field goal is .457%. If they match up so closely why do a lot of people know Rudy Gay, but when you say Angel McCoughtry name people look as if you spoke a language that did not excist? Is this because of skill, sexists or favoritism?
