It's really easy to give a fcuk about anything in the world. Doesn't take much effort at all.

It can’t happen quick enough. Who actually watches that crap?

….I will watch a CSU girls game with my daughter and it’s pretty fun. I was shocked I had as much fun as I had. They have a little point guard that’s white and fine.

As long as the NBA office and a few cuck owners support it, nothing will happen. But if that league money ever goes away, it is done.

Sorry to bust your bubble but let’s look at a few things?

The league is now 30 years old.

Its games are played over 5 major TV networks (you can’t find MLB most nights)

The players just got more money on
their contracts.

Attendance is up significantly this year.

It has several new faces of the league to carry the torch(Katlin- Paige-ect)

It has expanded in 3 new major markets in last 2 years.

Nothing they are doing now looks like a league about to fold, now they do have issues they need to address as you pointed out, absolutely, but it’s here to stay.

Now reason being, I pay attention to it because the betting aspect, WNBA is probably the easiest sport to bet and constantly win. I will also add that sometimes it does have very poor play, but it also has entertaining games when the better teams play each other( Fever-Aces-Libery-lynx) but it’s hellva a lot more entertaining than soccer if nothing else is on.

The league is not going anywhere

I'm a sports fanatic. I watch some games and the most unbelievable thing to me is - with the Caitlin Effect- private jets now, they're getting more $$ and all... you would think they'd be makin their shots now but they are missing more easy shots than ever

The social cost to the NBA of shutting it down has exceeded the financial cost in their eyes for a while now. They’ll fund the losses until the end of time


Yup

Whatever they are paying to keep the cancel culture protestors in line… it’s worth it for them

90 percent of their fan base supports “social justice”

I did laugh at the Fever coach’s answer. It’s basically, “look, I know it’s bullshite. You know is bullshite. But my job involves a large about of lesbians and a swath of extreme leftist psychopaths so, for my own survival, I can’t answer that question.”

Haha i just find it weird people dont understand that they just signed a $3 billion dollar tv deal.

They were losing money their entire history until now.

Thanks to people like the OP that give it more exposure.

Half the audience consists of conservative rage watchers directed from Fox News and X/truth social feeds.
