We've got gripes with The Athletic's recent list of top women's sports cities, which put Seattle at No. 3 and the Bay Area at No. 1.
Why it matters: This is not about being sore losers — rather, it's sheer incredulity.
We're stunned anyone could choose the Bay Area — whose WNBA team began playing just this season, and whose National Women's Soccer League team has only two seasons under its belt — over Seattle, which gave rise to the likes of basketball star Sue Bird and soccer legend Megan Rapinoe.
By the numbers: All told, the Seattle Storm have racked up four championships in their 25-year history, while the Reign have played for the National Women's Soccer League championship three times.
That's not even counting Rapinoe's status as an Olympic gold medal winner and past co-captain of the U.S. Women's National Team.
Between the lines: We can accept Twin Cities coming in ahead of us in the No. 2 spot: the Lynx are a true force in women's basketball, and Minnesota has popular women's hockey and soccer teams to boot.
But San Francisco? Get outta here.
What's next: Seattle's new professional women's hockey team, the Torrent, will play its first home game Friday at Climate Pledge Arena.
