NBA was founded in 1946, WNBA was created in 1996. Took 72 years for NBA players to get the money that are able to get right now. You know what NBA players were making in their 22nd season, less than 500,000. Bill Russell was only making like 100 grand. So WNBA players who think they should automatically just get money need to wise up and see how long of a process it took for the men to get their salaries. And instead of being counterproductive by showing resentment towards the men, figure what you could to help the WNBA to get to a point where more fans are excited to watch the WNBA, and more money can come in, and then negotiate more tv time and better salaries.

Also Sears is the only place I've seen that even sells WNBA gear, & that was when the WNBA was still in it's infancy. And they only had one rack of a few different teams jerseys (no hats, t-shirts, jackets or anything else). Also I have a 15 year old daughter who plays Basketball & she's been playing since she was 8. And over those years I have been to many of her games & tournaments with her school & AAU teams including many out of town & out of state games & tournaments & NOT ONCE have I ever seen ANY of those young female players wearing any kind of WNBA gear. My daughter doesn't watch WNBA games either.

When i see a center under the the hoop with the ball, invision a dunk 80% of the time. In wnba, all you see is a little hop followed by a tremendous effort pushing the ball up like a 5 year old. I won't pay $1m for that.

I use to play in an "under six foot" men's league. Even that was more exciting than watching the average WNBA game. FYI we didn't lower the rim or use a smaller ball and we had no trouble making a layup or shooting from the outside. Also we didn't get a dime for playing. We had to pay league fees, tip the refs and buy our own equipment and uniforms.

The NBA earns $7.4 billion each year (without losing any money), $89 per ticket and an average viewership of 15.14 million viewers for the Finals. The WNBA earns $60 million annually (losing $10 million annually and compensated by the NBA), $17.42 per ticket, and an average viewership of 231,000 viewers. Ladies, do the math.

I wish that WNBA players would focus their attention on cultivating a female fan base FIRST & FOREMOST before making the arguments they seem to be making RE equal pay, etc. If American women/girls don't support the WNBA how can anyone else be expected to?

Instead I use an app for $30 per month that gets me into many different events complimentary. I will never go back to season tickets for the WNBA.

Their fundamentals are better than the men’s. But the men are far more creative and have better athletic ability. They’re more explosive...it’s just a better look. I feel for the women, but until they attract full arenas they’ll never make what the men make. Also, this is an attempt to dig into the men’s pocketbooks. THAT AIN’T happening!!!! The NBA has already carried the WNBA for years. The league doesn’t even make money, but the NBA recognizes the opportunity to allow the women to be ambassadors for the sport. They have the WNBA’s back, but that doesn’t mean these women should be eating off of the men’s plates.

As much as I understand her in this struggle and what they're going through, huge problem is not NBA players. it's the WNBA itself. It's a failing sports brand that has no idea how to fix its problem. WNBA makes no money.

When the Sky came back to win game 4 of the Finals against Skylar's Mercury, with a 15-2 run, a lot of that was because the Mercury were missing wide open layups. I think they missed something like 6 layups, and 3 jumpers within 8 ft of the basket. That's why you're not getting 8 figure salaries.

The 1992 Angola Olympic Team that lost by 50 points to the Dream Team could beat the WNBA All Stars.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone out in public wearing a WNBA product. And, if by collective bargaining they feel that they should be getting 50 percent on a loss, I’m thinking the players should be writing the league a check at the end of the season. The reality is that it’s just not and will never be popular here. As hard as you try you just can’t dictate what people like.

Bottom line....women's sports has always had an uphill battle regarding fan interest. Women themselves don't support it, but they fully expect men to support it. Women complain, but won't step up. You can't FORCE men or women to watch your sport. The NBA has run a charity in carrying the WNBA - it can't stand on its own. I believe only one or two of the franchises are privately owned. They allowed the teams to have ads/sponsors on their jerseys early on to allow for additional revenue streams (the NBA started doing it not out of necessity, but greed...hahaha!). They don't generate the revenue that NBA franchises/league does, so she can't expect salary and revenue sharing parity with the NBA. She spouts all kinds of statistics and facts, but not ultimately what's behind those numbers. Yes, the women still have to go overseas to make millions (Russia pays them millions, gives them gifts like furs and diamonds, pays for housing, etc.) Brazil is perhaps the most soccer-crazy nation on the planet, but they can't sustain a women's professional soccer league. What does that tell you about the interest in women's professional sports?

There's usually only one or two great female fighters to promote at any given time. Female combat sports are still relatively new, and there just isn't a depth of competitive talent available to truly carry it.

Since its inception in 1997, the WNBA has never had a profitable season. They simply can't afford to pay their players any more than they already are. In fact, they can't afford to pay them the salaries they are already making. Get more viewers. Get more sponsors. Get more air time. Get higher salaries. It's a simple problem to understand, but a difficult problem to solve.

I saw on the internet I think it was on ESPN site that showed a document from the NBA that the NBA since they had a 70% stake in the WNBA that they lost 23 million dollars.these WNBA players are damn lucky the NBA still has a share in this league or they'd be flipping burgers at burger king.and the WNBA players calls the NBA out?.the NBA should just take their ball and flush the WNBA down the toilet.

The problem with the gross revenues thing is it doesn't mean much. Gross profits would the appreciable standard. To use an example. Lets say company A, a car dealership buys a high end car for $70,000 and sells it for $100,000. There gross profit is $30,000. They may pay out $20,000 in employee salaries and keep $10,000. In this scearnio the employees get paid wages of $20,000 (20% of the gross revenue and 67% of the gross profits). The owner of the dealership gets the other 10%. Company B, also a car dealership buys the same car for $70,000 but due to an economic recession and lack of demand, they can only sell the car for $60,000 taking a $10,000 loss on the car. The employees only get paid $6,000 rather than $20,000 so they only get 10% of the gross revenues rather than the 20% in company A and the owner of the dealership takes a $16,000 loss ($10,000 on the car and $6,000 more on the salaries) The problem with the WNBA is there are no gross profits. There is a gross loss. Its estimated that the NBA covers the 10-12 million dollar loss each year. If you give the WNBA players more money you are just increasing the loss. WNBA salaries come down to how much the NBA are willing to subsidize the WNBA. If the NBA is willing to subsidize the WNBA 20 million rather than 10 million you can increase the women's salaries, but basically the increase is due to the NBA transferring money over to the WNBA, not the women getting a larger share of the profits because there are no profits.

Can a woman join a NBA team? If there’s no rule against it, technically women can try and earn NBA salary, provided they can make the roster.

“Let’s be honest there are only so many fast break layups we want to watch” I’m dying omg

When the WNBA doesn't need the money from the NBA to keep the league afloat, then they can talk about getting more. That's just real talk. You can't ask for more if you already need help from someone else to keep your league going. Funny how none of the WNBA players complaining want to talk about the NBA money their league is getting. We all know why they won't. It doesn't help their agenda if they do. Which ia why nothing they have to say means anything to me. They won't discuss ALL the facts if the situation.
