She basically posted on social media that this is the WNBAs chance and we are going to blow it.

They can’t stand that Caitlin Clark is driving this. Teams are having to move their games against Indiana from 4000 seat arenas to the NBA arenas because of ticket demand and they are bitching.

Bill Burr is exactly right about the WNBA.

No, their bitching that it’s because a white woman is the reason and WNBA is a black sport

Average attendance is 6K across the WNBA. I was surprised.

Plus she doesn't make her whole life about left wing politics. That won't do in the WNBA. A truly awful organization

I'd bet a ton of tickets are given away free.
Schools, youth basketball leagues, etc.

No way 6 k ppl on avg have been buying tickets.

They got any good looking sluts up in the WNBA? Y’all know of any I could research? I know that’s slightly off topic but I’m trying to give it a fair chance for my viewership.

(1) what the frick does this have to do with politics?

(2) who’s moving games to larger arenas? I don’t believe this.

This!!!

I don’t care for the NFL but I’ll watch Tigers like Burrow and CEH when they play.

I love that our superstar women’s basketball players are going to the WNBA but I have no cares at all to watch them or keep up with them in their careers.

This is the growth they desire in the women’s game, supposedly. Bitching because they have to make a phone call to book arenas? lol

1. Its very political

2. LINK

Ive had these conversations with her over the years. I once was her VIP guest at an Atlanta Dream game. The players are the problem in the WNBA.


They are always bitching about salaries. When the league was formed in 1999, the top players made $35k and they were happy to make it.
They demand high end hotels and restaurants like the NBA.
They are ultra political and very loud about it (and 100% liberal and mostly straight up communist)

Here's some facts so you don't have to look them up.

There are currently 12 teams. 10 of them are in NBA cities. The Connecticut Sun plays in a casino and tries to be a pro version of UConn.

6 off the 10 teams in NBA cities are owned by the NBA teams themselves. It is the only reason that the league is still viable.

There are 7 teams that have folded operations, all were owned by NBA teams and dropped because they couldn't make money. Among them were the Houston Comets, who have won the most championships of any team. They are no more.


In addition, 6 of the current 12 teams are not in their original cities. That's a lot of chaos.

The entire WBNA produces $60 million in revenue. 412k viewers on TV for the finals. Its just not viable. The whole controversy is that this gives the WBNA a chance to increase viewers and revenue, but the players and media are bitching because Caitlin Clark is a white heterosexual.

Clay Travis was right - she should have returned to Iowa, made $20 million in NIL, increase her records and retire from basketball.

Any bump will be short lived. One season later everyone will return to not giving a shite

the WNBA will become viable once men start playing. (other than Brittany Griner)

I...don't know. I'm assuming no, though. If there were any, you'd think they'd have been posted by now, since there's a WNBA thread here every couple of weeks.

I don't believe you.
