If any WNBA player believes they are being paid unfairly, they are free to try out for an NBA team that has much, much higher guaranteed salaries. The NBA does not bar women, and in fact a few women have tried out for NBA teams. They just haven’t been good enough to earn a roster spot and get those higher paychecks.
They could always go to Russia, just leave the drugs behind.
What happens if she is only average in the pros? The drop off in interest will be huge.
Didn’t she just sign a multi-million shoe deal?
Pfft. With bonuses and stock, her compensation will creep up on $500K. But I agree with you. Most of the bus drivers I know have shoe contracts worth at least $30 million. The one she’s working on for only $28 mill is practically slave wages being the face of a business that doesn’t make any money
LOl funny enough, the state subsidizes the public transport here.
I get it. They’re flying private on her work.
Subsidized or not, she deserves more pay.
Then the black and lesbo players will bitch, complaining they deserve the same money that Caitlyn is getting.
Michael Jordan has entered the chat.
No, she's overpaid. There are men in the NBA who are getting paid less in order for her to get paid more than what she and her cohorts bring in for revenue.
If she directly results in more butts in seats, and more people watching, I agree.
Those black and lesbo players are free to guilt businesses into giving them charity that their popularity doesn’t deserve. Good luck (kinda)girls!
I think they would deliberatly go on strike just to deny Caitlyn her payday.
nope
According to this logic,
she should work for minimum wage and the rest should be garnished and sent to the NBA?
This is about relativity and reality.
If the league didn’t exist-this thread doesn’t exist.
The implication is that the endowment that the NBA set up is a given. If she was allowed to sign with the highest bidder that would be under the constraint of expected revenues and endowment funds.
Ticket sales are up dramatically! but that could mean 4K to 6K a game! lol
its not wildly popular although Caitlyn Clark brings a lot of attention as well she should....hopefully, she won’t succumb to the typical wnba lifestyle, God forbide...
“The explosion of interest in the league,“
Hilarious. MSM tries so hard to keep the life support for dyke ball going.
Same principle as Fast food Franchisees having to buy food ingredients and other supplies from corporate at inflated prices rather than comparison shopping them. TCBY frozen yoghurt went under over it as I’m sure many others did too.
Angst because they couldn’t fly chartered?! These ladies are too sensitive.
Who's paying for it? The NBA?
