Readers sound off about the implosion of the Pac-12 and the Angels in this week's letters to the Los Angeles Times Sports department.

In Bill Plashke’s column, the inference is the lack of opportunity for Latino women’s soccer players. While Latino representation on the USWNT may not be commensurate with the U.S. Latino population, nine of the 23 rostered players for the 2023 World Cup team were of minority backgrounds. In a country where more than 70% of the NBA and 56% of the NFL players are African American, diversity in sports definitely exists.
