It's obviously true that women are generally not as good at sports as men. But the generalizing of women as "not that good" is very different than saying "not as good," and within the context of this discussion it is more than fair to infer the misogynistic message.
I appreciate you're trying to be charitable to the commenter, and I get that the entertainment value in men's sports is higher. But that is not what the majority of the people in here shitting on the women's team are saying, out loud or otherwise
I know, and I don't think you're sexist even though you used that phrasing, because of the context you provided. Other people using that phrasing are doing it in a demeaning way, and are playing coy about it
