- Start date
no one will care
women soccer leagues have folded many teams and id say womens soccer is more pop than womens professional baksetball
Zero leverage.
All the nba gotta day is the WNBA has been a failed business venture that they routinely bailed out.
Hire a few woman in coaching positions and front offices and it goes away
It’s a different time. With the me too movement in full force if they shut down the WNBA they will catch hell over it. It’s not just gonna “go away”.
I can already picture Rachel Nichols dedicated an entire Jump to shyt on the NBA.
They should start with realizing they don’t have the same market share as the nba.
The WNBA is a project not a business venture..they need to play in smaller venues the crowds are embarrassing.
There is a market for it tho and maybe in time it will grow organically. Right now they’re trying to tell us it’s on par with the nba
For a sport she herself rarely covers. And those people that will bytch on social media are the same ones who don’t support the WNBA.

I doubt they will fold nba doesnt want that pr nightmare I actually think they might get a 50/50 split just because of the current climate.

"These women are not stupid"I called this back when diggins came out throwing Harrison Barnes under the bus out of the blue. They’ve gone on a public relations extortion campaign which includes people in the media, in an effort to get more of the men’s nba money.
All you cats on that “them for doing what they go to do” shyt sound dumb.
uh, yeah they are.

Even on the court we stay flyy, Jada & A.I.
At some point yall gne realize, women aren't dumb by any means. They just play the game different than us when it comes to getting what we want......and guess what, in terms of effectiveness, you cant really say they dont and haven't since the being of time played it well. I mean we come from them after all 
Like c'mon man, yall dont think them chicks no they losing money for big daddy NBA? Yall dont think they know the attendance records? Yall dont think they know all the financials, and most importantly, at this point , yall dont think they know that fundamentally nobody wants to see women play hoops ?Especially when the men's game is just a daily reminder to would be fans that the two just aren't equally ecstatically pleasing. Yes they know this. But as a few posters have already mentioned, they aren't coming at this from a logistical standpoint. Damn that and for what? They would lose from the jump playing like that, they ain't no crash dummies. That ain't there strength in this situation.
They playing on folks emotions. They playing on the NBA's and the commissioner alike fake ass, see through ass, "We are the World" ass, rainbow flag flying ass agendas about equality and humanitarianism and all that other public relations bullshyt.
"You say you bout women's rights and all that right? And you keeping our league afloat outta the kindness of yo heart and cause [I think the game looks fantastic, and it's amazing where the league now is from over 20 years ago when it launced] and surely not for no PR standings or financial reasoning right?
.........Well nikka my back hurting on these commercial flights, and speaking of which, my G, Its time for a raise. So what's the deal?"
Playing on the commissioner's feux intentions. That's not a bad strategy at all
......and again, I personally wouldn't even think to get down like that, but I also wouldn't be to p*ssy and image conscious to not tell them broads how it is and BEEN cut that dead weight lose. I dont feel for either party honestly, cause neither are being "moral". Just politics as usual

WNBA fans are already on strike.

bow down
why are they hoes though?Hoes with no leverage thinking they can force the owners hand In negotiations
It'd be a better option fiscally to fold the entire league than to give them anything they want.
No one cares much about soccer in general in North America. But the PR hit will be bigger just because of the WNBA's relation to the NBA.
