I enjoyed the skills challenge, the layup contest and 5 ft jumper contest was riveting


Did they have a slap-dribble race?

I don't see how the W(oke)NBA stays in business. There's no way they turn a profit.


Do a Google search on annual revenue by professional sport around the world…. Then scroll waaaayyyy down to find the WNBA.
Sandwiched between Cypriot First Division (Soccer) and Bangladesh Premier League (Cricket).



I also just did this search. The amount of either crap countries soccer leagues and non-mainstream sports (handball for example) about the WNBA is very funny. Borderline sad.


Told you guys. I looked it up a few months ago for some random reason, it was worse than I even thought.

Wiki shows them at less than $250k per game before the pandemic.

Chance the rapper is good stuff. He drops n-bombs and racial slurs in nearly every song.


He keeps it real unlike the WNBA ...

They don't.

It's subsidized
By the NBA.

If there's a shooting at a WNBA event, can it really be called a mass shooting?

This weekend is their all-star weekend. This is a time to showcase their stars. Yesterday was their equivalent to the NBA's all-star Saturday night. They held it at a makeshift gym and only select individuals were invited. And instead of televised on ESPNU. Here was their reasoning for not inviting the public.



Today is their all-star game. I can name a handful of WNBA players. For their all-star game they are wearing Britney Griner 42 jerseys to start the 2nd half. So here I am at the gym and I see the game on TV but I have no clue who these women are or what team they play for. They need to learn from the NBA how to showcase their top talent and make people interested in them.

It still probably wouldn't have helped me but for a young impressionable fan you have to make it easy for them.
I can name only one player. Maybe a former player at this point.

Hold up....the WNBA barred the public from attending because they have no fans, but then used the cover story that they didn't invite said fans because their fans are unable to gather without shooting and killing one another?

That's some bold PR right there.
