My question is:

How exactly do you negotiate with the league when it produced a loss of $40 million last year? What cards and negotiating tools are you bringing to the table?

“If you give us what we want we’ll keep playing and you can keep losing millions of dollars every year!”

Maybe they are going to promise to quit mugging the white girls that brought people to the arenas, and got them all paid more?

Nah. they enjoy that part too much. They are going to demand more NBA money be shoveled their way.

They should have to beat an 8th grade boys team first to determine if they are worthy of more money

They might be trying to keep buckets separate, but they got their recent TV contract again due to the NBA while some idiot wnba players including a former LSU player act like they earned it.

Obviously the need chartered planes and presidential suites for travel.

The entitlement is ridiculous. They should get what everything G league gets

Lock the ladies out when they go on strike and replace them with transgender scabs.

I would watch if a few G league guys transitioned and then just came in and absolutely wrecked shite. Have a team of trannies putting up 300/game. Dwight Howard would be in.

Wiggins Says 98% of WNBA is Gay

This is an article from 2017. At the time ESPN had a segment on this on one of their shows. They only talked about it for a few minutes, but they pretty much shamed this woman for saying what she did. Because you can't have a gay movement and someone saying a bunch of gay women bully straight players.

This is why it will never be as successful as they want it to be. They want it all, but don't like when the attention is on someone "not in the club". And its a bunch of women. God forbid if someone other than themselves get the attention the league needs.

It’s more basic than that. The fundamental problem for the WNBA is that nobody cares about women’s basketball. Nobody ever will care. It’s just a product nobody will ever want. Women’s college basketball can do ok at the major programs if the team is winning and that’s bc people are fans of the school.

How talks should go:

"Y'all use a smaller ball. Y'all have a shorter 3 pt line. Y'all play less minutes.

Now, y'all lower the fricking goal so we can see some dynamic action at the rim. If that draws more eyeballs, like we think it should, maybe we'll have more money to pay you, after we pay off our debts."
