[quote=Anonymous]Of course, Spirit was in the NWSL final a couple of years ago. I think attendance was better this year, with a record number for the game at Audi, than it was in the year they went to the final. They are getting roughly break even attendance at games now, but I think the problem is lack of public interest in general. There’s a very small overlap between the DCU fan base and Spirit. Still lots of sexist people who don’t view women’s sports as legitimate. This isn’t just a problem here, it’s even more rampant in some other parts of the world. Viewership has been growing, though, so with continued interest in the women’s side of the sport and the USWNT’s continued dominance there is a good chance the trajectory holds as long as the owners can hang on. The next two years should be a better for them with the Women’s World Cup and Olympics, just like previous cycles. [/quote]
