It doesn't sound like there is any pie. Do they want to pay part of the $40M bill?

So they shut down and don’t lose $40million. Seems like a win.

Replace them with hot chicks in lingerie, and the league might make money.

And they chased off the one player that was putting fans in the stands. Women are stupid.

maybe if they weren't staying in residences that cost too much for their salary to sustain them.....angel reese.

just because you want to be a basketball millionaire doesn't mean that you are entitled to be one.

They may have. Let them lockout, get out of it, and end this forced charade. I too think volleyball would be better. Exhibit A:

I think the men’s association votes Democrat, right? They should give half of what they make to the women to be fair.

the WNBA Player's Association (WNBPA) made its first expected move and nixed its current collective bargaining agreement (CBA) with the league in hopes of receiving a larger slice of the pie.


My question is, "what pie? There doesn't appear to be a pie to obtain a larger piece of."

When a company loses a few million dollars they usually file for bankruptcy and lay off all employees. When the WNBA loses $40 million their employees ask for a raise and if not met will go into a lockout. That sounds about right

Honestly the WNBA should be Federally funded. Its important for girls to have butch lesbians to look up to. Kamala needs to get on this.
