If the WNBA players got paid off profit they'd owe $69,000 a piece. :roll:

Well there is the question of WHY these multi billionaires would make such a seemingly terrible business investment.
Most of em get investigated routinely for “misogynist workplaces” so I dont think it’s from an altruistic sense of good will toward women.
Maybe it’s part of a long term plan in which they will benefit at the expense of others? Hmm.
Anyway these sorts of discussions are moot for you of course because youre below average, and there are too many directions the truth could go which will lead to very uncomfortable realities for you.
Truth has no value to the weak. Obedience and delusion are your only survival strategies.

it's funny because the truth makes your head spin in all directions, because you're an unemployed loser with no prospects to prosper.
well, your head spins all directions but employment.

They need to let transwomen play. They'd get the shock and awe ratings for at least a couple of years. Watching trans guys destroy those lesbians night in and night out would be entertaining as hell.
I would propose a 2 dick limit for each team though to keep it entertaining.
Or a 9 foot rim and 30 seconds for fighting similar to hockey. It's time to think outside the box. Or possibly a 4x4 spring plate 6 feet in front of the basket to get some flight into the game.

I know. And these women want to be paid equally as men. Newsflash cuties, you get paid what the market saids your worth, not what you think you're worth.
If the NBA didn't subsidize them, they would go out of business TODAY.

No one is triggered, OP just stated facts. In an open, capitalist market, this league goes under because costs greater than revenue.
ESPN could try to force this sh*t product down our throat but obviously, it's not working. Why? Because most guys playing at a local park can destroy these girls. :roll:

Since when is America not capitalist? For whatever reasons the NBA owners have decided that the WNBA is a good idea. You guys getting mad over it's existence when nothing about it is your problem. If I had to pay money for the WNBA to survive it would be gone. But I don't so it's not my problem.

I meant if the WNBA was a stand alone company, it would not survive.
The only reason the NBA subsidizes the WNBA and ESPN keeps reminding us to watch is to be woke and culturally appropriate.

Because creating a "woke and culturally appropriate" environment has helped the NBA make more money, thus the investment is worth it to them. You're really quite dimwitted eh?

And why dont you ever criticize them for it?
NBA owners are getting wealthier and wealthier appealing to minorities, yet theyre only 1/30 black and there's only 2 (I think) women.
Why dont you ever make a peep? You made a new thread about Trump practically every day he was in office.
Because youre a soft, brainwashed parrot like RMWG. If Bernie, AOC, and MSNBC arent telling you to focus on this or be mad about that, the issues never even cross your mind. You dont have real thoughts, you just repeat what you think youre expected to believe by the crowd in order to sound edgy. You're mentally dependent shmucks.
I mean I get that a lot of people are like that, but you two really shouldnt type. Because it's obvious youre just repeating lines billionaires programmed you to believe. You're exposing yourselves every time you say something. You cheer on policies that strip authority and credibility from your own selves while transfering it to white billionaires and "black trans women." And you submissively hope to be rewarded for it by the hive somehow. Your'e effeminate losers.
I dont think you realize that Bernie, AOC, and MSBNC belong to billionaires. Everything they tell you to think and say and believe is for the purpose of neutering you and making billionaires richer.
And yet it still works.
Super edgy, guy.

You are literally making up stuff here in order to get mad at an imagined slight, and I had very different politics than I do now for most of Trump's presidency anyways. The owners themselves are the problems, appointing minority owners doesn't solve the core issue. You wouldn't get this because you're too busy flying into a rage over completely innocuous posts.

Ok I did and I even included the political forum too to be fair. And I counted 16 threads that could be considered me shitting on Trump. He was in office for 1461 days. Meaning on average I made a thread shitting on him once every 3+ months :lol

16 threads is enough to warrant the hyperbole, particularly considering you pissed your pants about him hundreds if not thousands of times in other threads not started by you. Also the number of threads you made is probably even higher considering a significant chunk of threads were deleted when Jeff switched the board over.
In reality if I had to guess I’d say you likely made roughly 628 separate Orange Man Bad threads.

I’ve watched some in the past if you need a basketball game to watch it can be fun. I won’t lie and say it’s anywhere close to watching the NBA tho, men are just better athletes lol. WNBA would probably get more viewers if they lowered the hoops so people actually dunked. Watching a game with no dunks when you’re used to NBA is weird. Also from what I can tell WNBA is still behind NBA in the analytics department, so they do not play as intelligently. To many long twos still.

If bench warmers got paid off profit they'd be making less than minimum wage while Lebron and Steph would be making billions.

That doesnt make any sense relative to the WNBA example.
The NBA is profitable. Bench warmers play in the league. Therefore if they got paid an equal share of the league’s profit margin... theyd be worth whatever net positive amount of dollars.
WNBA chicks would owe money.
That said, operating at a loss is perfectly normal in business. Amazon didnt turn a profit as a company until 2017. Uber and Lyft had sky high valuations when they were still operating in the red.
Of course, that mostly has to do with the R&D investments those companies make with their capital. We all know the WNBA loses money because simply nobody cares. But hey, it is what it is.

Yes. The bench players are paid more because minimizing the pay gap creates a more stable league. And that stability of a highly profitable system is important even if the guys at the end of the bench are easily replaceable.
The WNBA players are also part of the greater NBA system. It'd be nice if the WNBA made money but if it doesn't it's just an advertising or outreach expense. It encourages women to get interested in watching and/or playing basketball. To normalize women playing basketball. Basketball has a shot to become the de facto women's team sport in the country. Not only can you get women more interested in watching the sport but more of them playing also does wonders for apparel and equipment sales. That money then gets pumped back into the NBA by its sponsors. Long term profitability for the NBA isn't guaranteed but if you have the liquidity to support this kind of venture as the NBA then it's a no brainer.
