I’ve noticed the last few weeks radio stations in northern Illinois during sports updates have been reporting on WNBA scores and news before talking about other more popular and established sports. It appears to be an effort by our betters to push it down our throats like EV’s, soccer, and the metric system.
When the WNBA finals are going on the ESPN home page prominently features it, as if it’s the most important sporting event going on.
I still laugh at this clip of the Chicago team celebrating their title in a parade, with nobody watching them.
