Women are making a press for supremacy. Tell me, if I did a job that required me to work less hours, work a smaller database, and my work wasn't as good as my CEO's, would I have anyone defending my demand to the same percentage of revenue as my CEO's stock options? Even then, would anyone defend me and we aren't profitable yet because we're building up the company? That's basically what this is they're asking for. Smaller balls, bigger rims, shorter lines, less games, and less money brought in (actually losing money) with downward projection = Same pay in what world? A feminist's world. No logic.

The answer is simple. People don't want to watch an inferior version of a sport that already exists.

[@mgecko2959]

Well as much as it works in basketball I wouldn't completely agree with you on every sport. I mean I enjoy watching women's tennis for example not to mention women's MMA which often delivers fights better than men's MMA. There is plenty women sports I enjoy watching its just basketball isn't one of them.

[@synical7733]

MajicGecko PMPL Women's tennis and MMA aren't really inferior in regards to the men's counter parts, as you said women's MMA and tennis are both equal quality. It really doesn't have anything to do with women as much as it does skill, and marketability off of that. There really isn't any high flying jaw dropping WNBA players at all. The reason being is that women are playing against women, and they don't develop the same talents as the men who have to play against the men. And that has no sexist connotation, it has to do with those men being the top rated basketball player's in the ENTIRE nation

[@mgecko2959]

@@synical7733 I completely disagree. If it is a case of women competing against women why do female tennis players almost as enjoyable to watch as male players? They play against women as well, sure they can practice against men but its the same with basketball. In fact I guarantee you that female basketball players spend probably 10 times as much time playing against men than tennis players did. Simply because from very young age female tennis player compete against other females. IN case of basketball there are not as many chicks balling out there so they in fact were growing up playing 95% of time against dudes. Following your theory it seems like basketball female players should be much more skilful than female tennis players. Its just matter of specifics of certain sport, basketball is much more athletic than tennis especially NBA. Women being generally much smaller should be playing different kind of court, I mean it will be always impossible for women to grab the ball in one hand, cock it back and then slam it with so much power. They are smaller than men and less athletic, but im quite sure on lower basket with slightly smaller ball it would be much easier for them. And people expect them to do almost as well as men on basketball court, that is simply impossible physically for them.

[@synical7733]

MajicGecko PMPL I'm sure women play against men at times but they aren't playing against them constantly; professionally when they are developing their talent. Rightfully so, given they will only play against other women professionally. But this holds them back universally. The same things they do in the WNBA wouldn't happen in the NBA, not because of gender but talent level. Name somebody in the WNBA who could rival even a player like Devin Booker? It's the reason even in men's leagues; AAU, JV, etc, boys don't end up developing as well when their opponents talent isn't as elite. There is a difference between dropping a 100 against an unranked high school team and 20 in the NBA.

[@synical7733]

MajicGecko PMPL And speaking on athleticism again, success in the NBA doesn't always require athleticism. There has been numerous top level and HOF players who had below average athleticism for the NBA. John Stockton, Steve Nash, Larry Bird, Kyle Korver, Dirk Nowitski. You could name a lot more. The reason women can't or won't find success in the NBA is because they keep playing in women's leagues. Even if you wanna bring up strength differences, we could have at least had a couple female guards and shooters by now.

[@Zapp__Brannigan]

This is a very well-researched video. Thank you so much for putting it together! One point about the attendance comparison between the leagues at year 22 that I would like to add is that the WNBA has only been able to attain its (dwindling) numbers _with significant financial assistance from the NBA._ The NBA hit those numbers in '70 all on its own without any big brother institution to bail them out.

@@bradleymalcolm7025 They don't have to be better then the men they just have to put on a good product. They don't score. They play 40 minutes and average 59 points a game. NCAA Mens basketball plays the same amount of minutes, in two 20 minute halves instead of four 10 minute quarters, and score 68 points per game. That is unacceptable. Basketball is about scoring, I know we all love defense but seriously offense sells tickets, and the WNBA doesn't do it. They shoot for 32% from 3 point land as a league, the NBA shoots at a 36% clip from 3 and shoots the ball far more often from that range. The NBA has a pace of play average of 97. The women? 78. They are a slower worse shooting league.

It's actually much worse than that, since you have to factor in expenses. If you subtract operating costs, paying lots of coaches and staffs and gyms/arenas and practice facilities (everything except player salaries) the WNBA loses many millions. So if WNBA players' pay is simply made a split of the profits, each player would have to pay their teams many thousands to get to play for them. Meanwhile of course, every NBA team is worth billions, and most owners profit many millions every season, and this would be true even if they suddenly doubled every NBA player's salary.

You are right, but there's less than 0% possibility that a WNBA game makes $10 million in revenue.

Jrustless Na lol WNBA is a shit league and doesn’t deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as the nba. I believe in equality only if the talent was equal

[@yessum15]

@Jrustless Na Yeah, that's what echo chambers are like.

@@yessum15 - And the NBA pays for the WNBA. So in other words, even with the WNBA receiving tax payer incentive AND a yearly check from the NBA they're still unable to make a profit. There's either something wrong with the business model or the product isn't worth what they think it should be. Regardless, the WNBA more closely resembles a patient that's been in a persistent vegetative state for 22 years than it does a living, breathing entity. People like you continue to hold out hope that sitting at the bedside and praying will cause them to wake up one day. But the only thing keeping them alive is the life support of the NBA.

@@colin1818 You're pretty much just making shit up. There's no evidence the WNBA is not profitable. They made $60 million from gate sales alone and many millions more from streaming sales (at an all time high), merch, and licensing. Independant journalists have confirmed that management was concealing revenue streams. Management was feigning a lack of profitability to gain leverage during salary negotiations. They provided zero evidence of any of the financial worries they were lying about. This video is a year old. Since then, management admitted that they have been underpaying the players and agreed to a significant bump in salaries. The NBA does not give the WNBA money. The NBA invests in the WNBA because it gives them a good return on investment. This is called diversifying.

[@aceofspades9785]

puca THE SUPERBOWL!!! Fox has destroyed every other cable news channel by millions for years and years now...it’s not even close...but just like espn preaching their liberal sjw crap and sinking sooooo low and losing their top spot in sports and still sinking...and watching their ratings plummet terribly because of their sjw bs...Fox News is following the same path...ie...JUAN Williams...Donna Brazile...shep Smith...napolitano...Bret Baier...all pushing viewership...the lifeblood of a network away!!! Liberalism has absolutely ruined espn and is on its way to ruining Fox...cnn and msnbc are so tainted from lefty liberalism(just look at the total screwballs on those networks) that destroyed them and they will never recover!!! It’s hard to watch any of those channels anymore... but it’s actually kinda fun to watch the left destroy everything they touch!!!

@Simon Dewitt ESPN proved it's CNN comparability when they gave gay ass Michael Sam some bullshit award for "bravery"! Also, football is played by MEN, again proving that nobody wants to watch women's sports unless it's sexy ass beach volleyball.

So if there are roughly 200 WNBA players and the league loses $10 million per year, each player needs to PAY the owners $50,000 to continue the league.
