The U.S. has currently selected 17 possible stadiums across the country, which will be narrowed down to 10 stadiums by the time of the actual competition."

Knee jerk reaction.

It would be precisely what one would do if one wanted to kill the sport of women's soccer. The law of supply and demand is brutal. There is simply not enough money being made by women's soccer teams to pay them the same. The industry is not sexist, the fans are Smile 

Personally, I don't care about either mens or womens soccer teams.
