You see the idiocy of thinking that the WNBA is a viable commodity?
it is insane they don't embrace her more. Everybody would benefit.

OP had nothing to do with or involve CC but the first thought wasn't congratulations. The "team" she plays on is still in the playoffs, but somehow you thought the season was over? So either someone's lying to make a point or is the same person saying the Fever could not compete without her?

And I agree that women should be the first to support and consume. But they aren't centuries of rooted, born and raised and consumed by sports daily type of people...for a multitude of reasons. It's the dads bringing their daughters to the games. So it may never take off, who knows. But if there's an abandonment simply cause one player is absent, that was never going to last anyways. And any accomplishments she will make could just as equally be dismissed because of how "bad" the competition is.

I had a whole rant on here but it's better to remove it.

Congratulations to A'ja Wilson

It's just halftime, but A'ja not having a good game so far, just 1 for 11. The Aces are still ahead 35-34.

That means people care about random rare stuff

WNBA players don’t have a billion options

So you buy what is available

WNBA certainly has a better handle on end of game watchability, and everyone is nails on freethrows. Congrats Aces, should be a good fight against Phoenix. Phoenix has been locking it down on defense. Looking forward to an intense series.

My favorite part of the season was watching Dangerous AI roast Sid,
although his roast of Aaron Fudge this weekend was pretty top notch.

Oh, congrats to A'ja n' stuff.

if a Finals trophy is hoisted in a WNBA game but nobody is around to see it, does it make a sound?


Also; Wilson > CC + her battered Entourage cast.

doesn't make a sound but people will have to randomly check out something like Blowout threads to find it out just like reading to realize the playoffs started or the season is over

I’m with you. Nancy Lieberman was 1 of greatest female basketball players ever & her autos can be had under $10 (supply not high either). List goes on.

Obtaining your daily news from anything other than BO seems archaic, imo.

Genuinely, people do not care about the WNBA. No matter how hard the media pushes it, nobody is going to care besides the tiny niche that did already. It’s boring and bad basketball.
Correct, that’s why I think people are crazy to view Catlin cards as good investment, at least at current price points.
