Women's sports should be limited to bake-offs and speed diapering contests.

>>153254286
It could happen. It depends on how the CBA works out. If the owners are forced to absorb even more losses, and are getting less money from the league....they aren't going to sit around and just keep losing money and there won't be many people lining up to by franchises that are bleeding cash

>>153253192

The people that fund the league is the NBA aka themselves. The women are getting greedy and want to be paid millions, but don't realize it's a case of robbing Peter to pay Paul

That's basically it. Tennis caught on with the simps before other sport.

>>153254300
There is a demand
And there is political pressure
Even if the wnba folds, something new would replace it soon

>>153254437
Well, they are trying. There is the new "Unrivaled" 3 on 3 womens league that just started. They drew a big house the other night. I think 3 on 3 is much better for womens basketball.

>>153253026
WNBA had their own version of Magic and Larry and threw it away because they are a bunch of shitlib dykes who hated being carried by a pretty White woman with a boyfriend.

>>153254330
What they wear helps like >>153254432 said, but one thing i think helps is womens tennis looks "normal" compared to the mens game, obviously its not played at the same pace, speed or level but it doesn't look as out of place compared to something like basketball when all the women look like kids trying to shoot into a 12 foot mens basket. They fill out the court better i guess is the way to explain it. There's also probably some dynamic of it being an individual sport over a team game, so they dont have to worry about trying to work with a woman when they all hate each other.

Kickstarting a league, any league, is very difficult. The WTA benefits from decades of existance and women playing amateur tennis long before that.
Same with equestrian sports and it's not a surprise that these two have the best integration of women within the pro structure.

>>153253026
The WNBA already gave the players an excellent proposal. Quadruple salaries and better benefits. That already eats literally all of the theoretical new profit the teams would've made. If they give the players more the teams will be in the red until TWENTY THIRTY SEVEN at the earliest.

The players are fucking delusional and need to take the bag before it disappears.

>>153254330
tennis is a rich person's sport and has been popular with women for a long time. The upper crust men also find it "sporting" for the women to play well before Title IX ever came into existence. Also, the women are (often) pretty and feminine which helps. Of course the left tried to turnn it into political activism with Serena and Venus but that didn't stick.

Basketball is the opposite of that. Niggas have no interest in watching women play. The women are nasty and mean and mostly dykes. The whole women's basketball thing is basically a lesbian grooming operation and left wing social engineering project.

>>153254522
I saw an interview from ESPN with Lisa Leslie, and a couple other WNBA players. They literally suggested that men's players take money from their own pockets and give it to them, and "they don't need to be gambling in Vegas when we are barely surviving". Total delusion.

Thing is, the women's soccer team won and got what they wanted, because they had the media and the political climate in their corner. WNBA players clearly tried to run the same playbook, but it's not the same. If Kamala Harris was elected president they would probably have a deal done and the players would have gotten most or all of what they wanted. The NBA owners clearly decided that this was a good time to fight these ingrates and degenerates.

Socialism knows no such thing as "profits".
Everything simply moves according to the leaders' great plan of total social justice producing nothing of value.
In the end the "dirty capitalists" will have to be brought to their knees to pay up for the leaders' plan.

Look, I can see how basketball could be considered interesting, although I usually don't watch a second of it.
What the fuck is supposed to be interesting about "women's basketball", though?

idk, it's definitely, there'se defintily somethin there, where women in team sports are just...team sports are not feminine
my theory sort of is like,
when we think of women we think of them as wives and mothers, as individuals in the family unit
team sports are masculine because of the proverbial group hunt, the group cohesion to build something or whatever
women don't have that or never really had that collective role in reality and in the psyche
there's something unnatural about a bunch of girls high fiving or whatever in forced ritual in a team game. and something completley normal and endearing about them wearing a skirt and playing an individual sport like tennis

The WNBPA is high on its own supply and might take down the league. They’ve decided on a crusade rather than just taking a huge pay increase and it might kill the golden goose.

Anyway, no one talks about it but the WNBA league ownership is fucked. The WNBA teams own only 42% of the league.

It was never a problem when they were making a loss but now they are making a profit it’s a massive fucking headache. NBA owners want their money back.

It’s become a lot more popular than it was over the last couple of seasons. It got a big boost on popularity from Caitlin Clark-mania. Revenue is massively up. It’s unclear whether that will sustain. They have a big TV deal which will finally make it profitable after 20 years of losses. WNBA stars are increasingly recognisable and appearing on TV ads and getting sponsorship.

It feels fragile - its popularity could easily wane again or it could sustain NHL-tier in popularity. A lockout has a good chance of killing it entirely.

This makes for a headache, as a taste of success has let some people are deluding themselves it’s now massive and should go scorched earth to get an extra few percent.

Historically, the WNBA players have knew they were losing money and were super pragmatic about the CBA, contrary to popular belief. Now real money is involved it’s becoming a problem - it’s not seen as enough to 4x more money.

>>153253105
