WAPO runs off their ideological lunatics and starts actually prioritizing news and not activism and real stories actually start getting printed. Amazing how that happens.

We kind of knew it was in the red already. The current WNBA hoopla is simply an attempt to capture the audience while they're sort of looking.

Espn has been promoting it like crazy.

The brain of a militant WNBA lesbian needs to be studied by science to figure out why they are so stupid, as Dave Portnoy said.


It's low IQ. They're just simply dumb and have difficulties understanding concepts like marketing, PR, or supply/demand.

Woah man. I was ridiculed on here when I said the head of marketing was clueless. Watch yourself.

I said months ago, she should've returned to Iowa, made a lifetime of NIL and did the Cube thing for awhile, celebrity events and retired.

The welfare league was hell bent on destroying her because that's what women do....especially lesbians. Carl Jung said "a women's greatest vice is jealousy."

She never needed this welfare prison league that doesn't identify with HER. This is a sport that hates her, is run by stupid people and has been historically unwatchable.... And yet they attack their savior. Unbelievable.

You sound like someone who only thinks with his wallet.

Maybe Clark has orher goals like competing against the very best or growing the women's league.

Now include Canadian viewers into your numbers. The great ole USA aren't the only ones with television sets.
It's the same narrative that has engulfed the country as a whole. Minority groups being put on a pedestal and catered to as if the majority. Numbers being cropped, framed and presented to tell a story. When the proofs are exposed the truth is inevitably told. Majority rules. Like it or not, it's always been that way. Always will.

I have a hard time believing anyone actually watches the WNBA. It is just a poor basketball product. So I am skeptical of the ratings info.

Just checked the stats and last night Clark scored 7 on 3 for 11 shooting.

Her teammates everyone says sucks won them the game scoring 27 and another 24.

This is why you guys suck. Caitlin is a great player but you guys just turned her to you hate tool.

Anyways the WNBA sucks regardless of Caitlin being there or not.

I mean, the majority of the money comes from TV contracts. So even though there has been increased coverage, it’s not like that’s going to result in more money for the league this season even if they do see a rise in ticket sales and merchandise. The increased viewership will have to be taken into account with the next TV contract.

Their players and some of their advocates have no concept that it's not a fairness issue, it's an economic issue. No clue.

Even after seeing this they would still be clueless or else would say these numbers or false to try to rationalize.

The WNBA is a fascinating look into the psychological view of jealousy and entitlement in the business world. I’d love to hear Adam Silver freely discuss the missteps that have occurred this past 1.5 years in preparing the league for this years predictable media frenzy.

Definitely a possibility.


You do realize that they use an existing infrastructure? The NBA is letting them use their arenas, probably at no cost. If they were left without the NBA’s protection, they fold within a year. They can’t even afford chartered flights now, imagine if they have to purchase a private plane like the men’s sports. Your constant shill for the WNBA yet I bet you can’t name all the teams.
