Downvoting because I can name one former LSU player who is now in the WNBA?

Sometimes this place is funny.

No, i mentioned that angle in my post. NBA and NFL are wildly popular, men of all ages buy these jerseys for themselves, and regularly go to and watch games. Nobody cares about the WNBA, it is a novelty. Grown men are not buying wnba jerseys for themselves, and neither are liberals who pretend to care about women's sports. The only people i can imagine buying wnba jerseys are parents with some decent disposable income for their daughters. They are most likely respectable families, and they likely prefer caitlyn clark and Sophie cunningham to angel reese and Brittany griner.

black people and college kids.

I couldn't even begin to tell you the market for WNBA jerseys. I know the easy answer is fat lesbians but I don't take them as the jersey wearing kinda crowd.

I think that is over something like the last 6 months.


"Ackshually..."

How many more WNBA jerseys have been sold over the past 6 months since Sophie Cunningham signed with the Fever compared to the 6 months prior, and how many of those were Sophie Cunningham and Caitlin Clark jerseys?

Probably because she’s insufferable and a prime example of needing humility.

Find a way to elevate those two away from the WNBA and let it die on the vine.

The WNBA has never been much of an attraction to me and most of my visuals have been on YouTube so I can't say that I'm even a fan of the Fever.

My only interest is Clark and Cunningham.

That is the big question. WNBA refuses to give out sophie data.

Here's the problem with the wnba, there's a few angry black entitled bitches that don't understand that their entitled worth is being subsidized by the nba and they are literally worthless and jobless without that. How about you walk around trying to be endeared by the fan base for once.


Correct. They don't understand "attitude" isn't a replacement for skill (it comes across as petty jealousy).

Wait? You mean a league followed by a majority of America’s lesbos, has two heterosexual women as the reason why the WNBA is a success?

Huhhhhhhhh?
