  1. new TV deal next season will help, and $25 million of that is supposedly from charter flights. If the $50 million is accurate, does that mean each NBA player is losing about $45K a year on the WNBA? ($50m/2/550 aprox # of players)? Does the men's revenue split come before or after WNBA revenue losses?
  2. Reece's interviews are way more entertaining than watching her shoot 36% from 5 ft or less. The villain role will play well with all of those who hate CC for reasons not related to basketball. Her style of play is the same style that has had the WNBA lose money for 25+yrs annually. She simply doesn't stand out in anyway when watching the game for a traditional NBA fan. Still think the Olympic team made a huge mistake not putting CC AND REESE on the team. You would then capture all who love CC and those who love to hate CC. Market the past (which no one cared to watch) meets the future that people actually tune in for. I think the players' worst fear is that CC would be one of the best players on the floor when surrounded by talent regardless of playing time (which there would be plenty for a team that hasn't lost in decades), the blow to the egos would be nuclear.
  3. It’s a different sport and there is nothing wrong with that. Find a way to make it entertaining.
  4. Is it wrong to admit your core audience for a space ninja, space wizard and spaceship heavy product is male? Men love frickin lasers.
  5. A: I was just playing hard trying to make a play for my team. It is unfortunate I hit Clark in the head, and I understand the rule regardless of intent. Im happy she is ok and that’s not why we lost today. Ladies need to watch Bull Durham on the flight home.
  6. At least six people were transported to hospitals with "potentially serious" injuries, emergency response officials said, ABC News reported. The Austin-Travis County EMS said four adults and two children were transported to local trauma facilities. Banks said two groups began fighting with each other near the vendor area during the Round Rock Juneteenth Festival at Old Settler's Park when the shooting began. During the fight, at least one person pulled out a gun and opened fire. A description of the suspect was not released by police, as Banks said there were multiple descriptions of the suspect and different accounts of what happened during the shooting.
  7. What would it cost to just move up one spot and take Sarr or Zaccharie Risacher? Both seem to be the best fit for our team
  8. or a live chicken, or pudding. This team would be so much better with last 2 years of Chaz right now.
  9. Bregman has a 15 game hitting streak? In a row?
  10. WNBA Attendance Is 105% Higher When Caitlin Clark Plays Key Highlights: Caitlin Clark has caused attendance figures to jump 87% compared to opponent’s average home attendance Clark has accounted for 33.5% of the total WNBA attendance in 2024 When Clark plays, WNBA games average 15,591 fans in attendance (+105%) compared to 7,645 fans when she is not in action Indiana Fever average 36% more fans on the road (15,142) than any other WNBA team The Las Vegas Aces are the only team that didn’t set their season-high in attendance with Clark in town but the defending champs have operated at max capacity for nearly every home game. When removing the Aces from the equation, Clark’s effect grew even bigger to a whopping 137% compared to when she’s not in action. No. 2 overall pick Cameron Brink and the L.A. Sparks are next on the list, drawing an average of 11,104 fans on the road. Meanwhile, fellow rookie Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky are third on the list with an average of 10,365 fans in attendance on the road. Attendance at non-Caitlin Clark WNBA games this past weekend: 7,638 4,015 9,878 7,035 3,265 10,207 7,024 Attendance at Caitlin Clark WNBA games this past weekend: 17,274 17,401
  11. “Caitlin Clark is the first player in WNBA history with 200 points and 75 assists in her first 12 career games Choosing Griner over Clark is the biggest head scratcher. She hasn’t even played this season and has off the court baggage (domestic assault, heading to Russia after the Ukrain invasion ) etc.
  12. Fair. Ive only see a few quarters live, and the lowlight videos posted in this thread and others of her teammates struggling to deal with passes etc.
  13. true, also fair to say at least a 1/3 of those turnovers attributed to her are caused by her teammates
  14. She is top 15 in points and 4th in assists and has played only 10 games or so. It is very comparable, and she is doing it in a league dominated by size and physicality, not finesse. Also, her teammates are…..not good
  15. Help me Space Tits. You’re my only hope.
  16. They wouldn't have to play a minute to be some of the most viewed female athletes on social media at the Olympics. The Vets should embrace them and be introduced to their already larger followings. Go make your money ladies.
  17. Silver needs to step in and discreetly force them to add CC to the roster. The NBA has lost over a quarter of a Billion dollars investing in the WNBA, they have every right to want to see their investment maximized. Favoring individual feelings/jealousy over the good of the sport and league (worldwide) should be a fireable offense.
