Let's not forget the WNBA teams are paying rent to the NBA teams for use of the stadia. So the money goes from one column to another and you get to wash it legally and it comes out of the dryer as a loss intead of a profit.

Kind of like the Cubs taking only a few million of the revenues generated by their superstation while the rest goes to the Media conglomerate that owns them. It's a neat trick that all the baseball teams that have large media conglomerate ownership use to hide revenue.

Look ma were losing money Don't look at all the cash going to the Tribune Company, we really are broke and need revenue sharing.

If you find that kind of stuff interesting go to baseballprospectus.com and look back about 3 months and they have a 5 part analysis of the baseball bookeeping system.
