“”” the players came out onto the court wearing black t-shirts that said “Pay Us What You Owe Us.” “””

Ok. Here’s a buck and a half. Now go fix me a sammich.

They don’t bring in the money that the men do. Why should they benefit from the men’s income.

Caitlan Clark is the reason for SOME small interest. of course, she gets treated like a car crash dummy. I hope she jumps the league and goes to Europe and kisses the WNBA goodbye while trashing them on the way out. But she won’t do that.

“Litany of reasons” must be the court Nickname of Caitlin Clark.

If they’ve lost $40 million a year for 29 years, who’s taking the loss?

I’d rather watch beach volleyball.

If the WNBA wants more money…

…why don’t they divorce the NBA so they can get half of everything they own? 🤪

A league of lesbian women with no menstrual cycles dependent on money men from another league, and which nobody watches ... Scotty, beam me up....This is hopeless.

I agree with the players. The owners should pay them what they are worth. Unfortunately for the players, there are minimum wage laws in this country which makes paying them what they are worth illegal.

They’re more than welcome to try out for the NBA which pays higher salaries.

article: "… surge in popularity and revenue over the past year for a litany of reasons."

OMG! Yes, unfathomable. LOL. The reason that can't say it's name.

The popularity is due to the phenomenally talented white woman who puts
the natives to shame, spanks them all the way back to the cotton patch.

The WNBA, like the NBA, serves no rational purpose for either business or entertainment...

They serve only political purposes as a sneaky form of reparations...

leaving the threat of a lockout or a strike on the not-too-distant horizon if a new CBA can’t be hammered out soon.
......

Won’t bleed money out that way..

Maybe they’ll turn a profit

If they go on strike, will the other players be allowed to beat up Caitlan Clark with picket signs on the street instead of just bodily running her down on the court?

I think they should go on strike. Forever.

Watched the 1st quarter of the All-Star game - what a joke.

4-point shots? You've got power forwards cranking them out from logo-land.

And the insufferable "will play for more cash" pleas.

College ball is so much of a better product.

The original WNBA is now just a Welfare for Black Trannies Assocation. (WBTA). On any given night you can see men who pretent to be chicks with balls playing with themselves on the basketball court of appeals for perverts and democrats.

When the WNBA’s higher future earnings depend on essentially one player that the other players and the officials are intent on pushing out of the game, demanding more pay seems a bit silly.
