Well I saw this on twitter yesterday and found it interesting.

I don't know what a non-Division I league is. I get the impression that it isn't as professional as the WPS was.
Unfortunately I don't think it's really all that feasible to make a living as just a women's professional soccer player in the U.S., and I don't think this league really changes that.
I think the National Team is really the goal that a player should have if they want to just eat, breathe and sleep soccer and not do anything else.
The best opportunities will still probably be abroad, but I am happy that there are other opportunities for players to play the game after college if they want to, because I know so many do.
Hopefully the Olympic Games will ratchet up the interest for the game like last years world cup.
