“ No.....CC did not go to Barcelona ...”

LOL — Some folks are of the mind that if they see it on the internet it MUST be true.
Let them all walk and draft the next college class. A league that doesn’t turn a profit has no room for this stupidity.
In spite of record income in 2024, the WNBA still lost money.
If they cannot break even after Caitlin-mania, they will never break even.
OMG The huge manatee.
Will anyone notice?
New TV contract will start in 2026.
Translation: We’re gonna lockout if you don’t want to lose $40M next year.
Decision made!!!
The owners should just say nothing and let the strike happen indefinitely.
The owners are getting zero profit either way.
The WNBA will likely start allowing chicks with dicks to start playing against the guys they currently have playing with no dicks... After that... Who knows what type of viewership they’ll get.
“The owners should just say nothing and let the strike happen indefinitely. The owners are getting zero profit either way.”
Agree, and the ‘babes’ there are FINALLY giving the owners a way out of their misery - all the owners have to do is hold out.
I guess when you live on credit of the NBA and haven’t turned a profit in 27 seasons one doesn’t have a firm grasp on the concept of money or business
It will dramatically increase distribution.
I scanned three articles, but no mention of money.
I am thinking Disney must have a back door contract escape clause if WNBA still registers basement ratings in ten new channels.
How will I even notice.
The who are threatening to do what?
It’s amazing to me that the NBA owners are willing to lose that much money on women’s basketball.
I’m sure they want to show that they are supportive of women’s basketball. But did any of them think they would have to subsidize women’s basketball for decades?
Did the WNBA ever have any business plan?
Where they would start making a profit after a certain number of years?
>> Will anyone notice?
Why, it’ll cut the number of games I watch in half!
Of course, half of zero is still zero.
Replace them with third and fourth string college guys that are not claiming to be trans.
The great 50s-60s Celtic teams had “Jungle Jim” Loscutoff to intimidate their opponents.
