WNBA Players Are Overpaid

It is impossible to change the channel fast enough when the WNBA comes on.

Tax writeoffs.

There’s still a WNBA?

[Mr. Jeeves]

I've been past the arena before a Phoenix Mercury game . I saw a couple hundred lesbians and a few middle school girls basketball teams with their coaches going in. The claim that 10,000+ people are attending an average Mercury game is beyond absurd. The Suns have trouble drawing that many, lately. :)

They don't use the upper level seats, to make the press photos look better. I won't post any because they are mostly copyrighted, but a quick search will show you at least some of the shots of the half-empty arenas.

[Psalm 73]

Breanna Stewart is about the only WNBA player I’d pay to see. And maybe Sue Bird in her prime.

[where's_the_Outrage?]

I think the WNBA needs to demand equal pay for equal work. They get nowhere near what the men do, it’s obvious discrimination.

Furthermore, former men that now identify as women should be allowed to play in the league.

[Vaquero]

Well, there you go.
