It's also a problem that there is no WNBA forum on the CFMB. |

It's also a problem that a championship series in the premier women's basketball league is unable to be a best of 7 series due to women not having the same level of conditioning and endurance. |

I watched more WNBA this year than all other years of my life combined. Like a half hour total maybe. It's not a great product. |

It is quite hilarious to watch all ESPN platforms try to force feed this garbage product to consumers. |

Now that the women's soccer World Cup is over (with it's far higher ratings and interest than even women's Olympic basketball) how is professional women's soccer doing in the country? |

The USA is laughed at by everyone else in the world for caring about women's soccer. Its no less a national embarassment than our politics. |

Are there any dudes playing in the WNBA yet or are they too busy dominating women's cross country? |

i'm very curious where any of this money is coming from. Is the NBA just going to continue to shell out the difference? i'm assuming well over 50% of the costs of the WNBA are subsidized by the NBA. |

Who determines a "top player"? I assume the players don't negotiate individual contracts? |

The NBA claims the losses are made up by female fans also watching/buying tickets to NBA games because of it. I think they would have a hard time convincing the NBA players of that but the NBA players are happy because tv contracts are skyrocketing so far and giving them huge raises every time.The WNBA will shut down when the NBA doesn't print money from ESPN and TNT. |

They should invest it in the G League. Pay the players higher salaries and remove the one and done and the G League would take off. |

What fun would it be playing a basketball video game where all the players are slow and can't dunk? |
