When WNBA was launched out of the 8 teams most of them were named around thier NBA team like Houston Comets, Sacramento Monarchs, Orlando Miracle, LA Sparks & Chatlotte Sting. Ive been watching WNBA way back when they were on LIFETIME and 27 years later theyre entering a new era around Caitlin Clark & Angel Reese

Nothing stupid about it at all, they're obviously just saying the fans in those cities would have a built in fandom and a sort of familiarity with the team, They exist off the NBA anyway, now not getting that is pretty stupid.

@DunningKruger778 21 день назад

I mean, I definitely see the argument for having their own names, and creating their own identity. But this argument isn't crazy. If they shared a name, it would probably come with some subconscious fandom. I think this show is starting to reach a bit. Can't he outraged about everything.

Where are videos on how awful this new Arena Football League is treating their players, coaches, team staff, etc? The league is in their third week and four teams already folded!! What the shame as the original AFL was something to watch back in the day

@SmartDave60 22 дня назад

Yeah let the women have their own entity. The USFL and other men’s leagues didn’t associate with the local NFL teams.

@airedale0553 22 дня назад

I don't know the finances...but IF the WNBA is losing money, than I think making the teams like Lady Lakers would be a good idea to bring more eyes to the sport and maybe more seats filled in the arenas....IF the WNBA is break even/ profitable or even losing a little...than I would think it would be best to stay "separate" with the names.

@OhhMyyDogg 21 день назад

You're being even more sexist than them. A female wizard is a witch. A female king is a queen and a female buck as far as I know is a Doe.

@OhhMyyDogg 21 день назад

Bargain for a double bill. Think about it. Give fans two games for the price of one. Let women have summers off again when they have children off school much like the men.

@OhhMyyDogg 22 дня назад

Just a reminder that Rick promoted an intramural league with lowered basketball hoops.

@RobEwart 22 дня назад

Women's sports have become very important here in Canada. They are always outperforming our men's teams on the international stage. 😊

@MagicMikeFromCLW 22 дня назад

The WNBA is more popular now because they have stars that people care about. They earned it. Imagine that. They didn’t have to guilt us into caring about the WNBA. They made us care about it with better play

@leftsmith280 22 дня назад

Yes, and also the NBA was not profitable for many decades.

@pycellesbeard9728 21 день назад

LMFAO The WNBA is only getting pub now Because Caitlin Clark arrived and GTFO with "they didn't guilt us" BS, All they've been doing for years is whining that no one cares and how they don't get paid enough and don't get to travel like the leagues that actually make money.

@somchai272 22 дня назад

Well, the league has never made a profit. Perhaps new strategies are needed. In fact, new ideas to market the WNBA are much needed.

@pycellesbeard9728 21 день назад

The strategy should be Clark, Clark, more Clark and Clark. The top top selling games all feature Clark, She's their shot at having a Bird, Magic or MJ type that takes the league to the next level the way those three did the NBA.

Absolutely terrible take and not surprisingly filled with emotions and hurt feelings, this is 2024.... I'm a huge sports fan I can't name one woman's NBA team that would be away for me to at least know they exist. How many years have they been around and they are still floating off somewhere in obscuritiy, subsidized and not watched... So dumb it's laughable.

@OhhMyyDogg 22 дня назад

The bell curve is a curve. Why am I saying this? Because it gets wider as it goes down. Why am I saying this? Because its better to take a risk that you may have an unpopular view than to retreat behind views that are known to be inside the bell curve. And by the way. You might be surprised to know that you're in an echo chamber and the bell curve isnt where you think it is. Again. Its better to take a risk if you arent sure it is going to be unpopular but you also know its not automatically scripted as popular speech Some might disagree.

What does two analyst opinion have to do with the nba supporting the wnba every single year. Without the nba, the wnba would not exist, but Rick is trying to say that the nba doesn’t support the wnba. Just because of these two analyst opinion on opening. Pathetic
