In November, the National Women’s Soccer League championship sport — which, for the second straight season, featured the Washington Spirit — had almost 1.2 million viewers on CBS, a league document (however not likely a shock for the followers who crowd into “Rowdy Audi” to observe the crew, as the Spirit had the second-highest common attendance in the league).
