Ok Asking for more money is normal. Thinking revenue can be negative is just plain dumb


Cool, my comment was dumb. Asking for more money is normal. Asking for more money from an organization that doesn’t make any money is still dumb.

Reese is a child that doesn’t understand how the real world works. They’ll never satisfy her unrealistic demands.

They made 200 million last year

Revenue-expenses=profit

What you made - what you spent = profit

they already have revenue sharing, they are just trying to adjust how it is

The WNBA's revenue sharing agreement gives players 50% of the league's incremental revenue, but only if the league exceeds its revenue target. The WNBA's revenue sharing is less generous than the NBA's, which gives players 50% of all revenue.

And every article I can find says they still lost 40 million dollars. Where are you seeing a profit?

Its not at all though

One is a quote where Reese talks about what she is hearing from the union talks

The other is a threat as if Reese was in the union meetings leading the discussion

If they go on strike, how are we going to see Caitlin Clark get assaulted and cave in again?

From a flopped League that nobody watched to the entire ungrateful WNBA acting like THEY'RE collectively the Caitlin Clark effect.

No you didn't bootstrap your League, it was ALL external charity.

And the charity of one player you despise.

Her comment was simple and not dumb at all. She simply said she is hearing there maybe a sit out

The quote in the picture is fake news. She isn’t threatening anything.


I think you don't know what [ ] brackets mean. It means nothing was said so you can put something reasonable in between to make the sentence make sense

quote:

if [the league] don’t give us what we want, we’re sitting out,"


Could be the league, could be you could be a lot of things. You are acting like she didn't say basically 100% of what the original quote was.

Was it taken out of context? of course it was. Was it pretty close to what she said? of course it was

Saying

I’m hearing there might be a lock out

And

If you don’t give us what we want we will lock out

Is not the same and the people who changed it and put it on that picture did it intentionally and they knew what they were doing

The two quotes aren’t just different in context, they are completely different

Someone says :

“Im hearing people are chanting “black people should die”

But someone puts the quote on the picture of

“I’m telling yall black people should die”

Is more than just changing context….

The bracketed part doesn’t matter, at all. It’s the “I’m hearing” part they leave out
