sport is going to be huuuuuuuge!

currently mlb is #3 in the world in revenue

wnba is #56, right behind the professional German ice hockey league (DEL)

wnba salaries are 60-230k

DEL is 90-350k euros

I don't get why wnba isn't on strike for triple salaries

They are still paid less than DEL and my point was, with a league positioned to be the # 3 sport IN THE WORLD (per Cam Newton) the players should all be millionaires, easily

Well the salary increase is coming but I'm not so sure that it will be millions, at least just yet. They likely do get a big percentage increase in total league revenue this time around, which is what the players really want and the timing of a new CBA is working out in their favor. They currently get something like 9-10 % whereas the NBA/NHL/NFL are closer to 50/50 splits.

Shaq said it best. If they had shorter shorts and lowered the hoop, views would come in.

Yep, that's the issue I have with the split

but I guess small leagues that's common? MLS pays 12.5%

Idk if anyone watched the debut of Unrivaled last night but that was pretty entertaining. Format on a reduced sized full court was fantastic and the untimed winning score fourth quarter makes for exciting finishes.

Angel Reese wanting the WNBA to go on strike would be hilarious.

They would actually save money if that happens.

Looked like a clean play, obvious foul to stop opponent from going to the basket, and somewhat of a flop at the end.

Maybe it was legitimately her momentum taking her down, but it looked more like something out of the Lebron school of flopping.

Yeah Reese flopped and then was cussing out CC lol. What's nice though is that CC's teammates finally stepped up to protect her. They didn't do that last season.

Speaking of flopping, Lebron congratulated CC on social media and her haters weren't having it lol.

FWIW lost in all of this is the shove on Howard by Reese just before the CC foul :

In other league news former Mercury/current Fever player Sophie Cunningham may have been sleeping with the Mercury/Suns CEO who is married.
