No one watches Langiere Football League either FFS.
Maybe its because girls just suck at sports...

"And if you look at the players in the 'W' (WNBA) most of them are Black, and a lot of them are gay,"
How would anyone know any of this if no one is watching?
Most of the players in the NBA and NFL are black, and those are 2 of the most popular sports in the country, so that's a pretty pathetic argument on her part.

In a similar vein, I won’t go so far to say the LPGA is as entertaining as the men’s game, but I’ll watch it some and it’s a damn good product. Interesting personalities, a familiar game executed at a very high level, great courses, lots of drama, etc.
They could probably use an American superstar or two to drive it more (Lexi Thompson, the Korda sisters, etc. are good but not kicking arse and taking names, nor are they magnetic personalities like a Tiger or even Phil), but the entertainment factor is high and the money is pretty good and getting really good.
Womens tennis definitely benefits from the fact that in a lot of the significant events on the calendar including the grand slams they play interchangeably with the men on the same courts on the same days
But its way more international
And you cant really do that for any other sport

Even tho I’m only 5-9 I would share one of those WNBA stars.... it’s more that they are all lesbians and very woke and I don’t like basketball why I don’t watch ...

Nobody wants to spend 2 hours watching ugly lesbians make layups

No one cares about the WNBA because they can’t dunk.
And yes I know a few can but they’re dunks aren’t even in the same category.
Lowering the hoop so they could dunk is the only way to make more people watch. It is what it is.

And guys watch football, baseball, and (men's) basketball because the guys are cute?
Logic. The enemy of feminism.

Might go faster. She knows what's she's worth. She'd have a 7 figure shoe contract just off her hype right now.
6' blonde white girls w/ Ricky Rubio passing skills will sell a lot of fricking shoes. She's cute. She plays like a dude without being too buff or super unfeminine. She is a marketing dream.
Also might be the best female basketball player to show up in a long time. I don't follow or really care about women's basketball, but that girl is going to sell a lot of shoes to your daughters.

You're right Sue. I am being true to myself. I have always hated womens basketball. In high school, as an adult. It's useless.

Who was it that got mad offended when TMac made this exact suggestion?

Or, because the product is terrible
We watch pro sports, in part, because we want to be awed by people who can do things we can't.
When I was a student at Alabama, Sandra Murray, the sister of Alabama men's star Anthony Murray and a star on the women's team, used to regularly go down to Foster Auditorium and play in pick-up games with guys.
Good for her that she could compete with guys. But does that mean that guys want to spend time and/or money watching someone who was merely their equal?
It's not sexism or homophobia. I watched Martina Navratilova (a lesbian) and Chris Evert and other women's pro tennis players in part because they were at such a talent level beyond what I could ever hope to have been. Why would I spend time watching someone on TV who I was able to compete with in pick-up games?
How many guys who were really good high school basketball players have the perception that they could beat most of those WNBA players one-on-one? Probably thousands.
Basketball fans are awed by NBA stars. Few if any guys are awed by the WNBA.

I don't know a single black person who watches the WNBA.
Nor do I know any whites, Hispanics, Asians...

WNBA = Female basketball players who look like men but play like women.
