Christine Brennan from USA Today discusses the Olympic Qualifying tournament on NPR.  

She talks about how the tournament is highlighting the disparity between women’s programs and how it might encourage developing programs to actually develop their programs.  She says it outright: “Frankly, their national federations just don’t care about women’s soccer.”  Preach.

Also some discussion about how interest in a few USWNT players peaked after the WWC, but WPS is still struggling.  Old news for us, but nice to hear on a national news program.
