Not the least but interested. I mean I'm glad for clark and the league if they can put a good product on the floor. Thus far the NBA has carried that league. It just proves when there is actual talent people will watch.

I don't know if it's fair to claim "the NBA carries the WNBA" since viewership and attendance have skyrocketed.
WNBA regular season most-watched in 21 years
The WNBA once again had strong metrics this year as the league had its most-watched regular season in 21 years and its highest average attendance since 2018.
Martin, a morallly retarded deviant with severe TDS with no character to get out of.
We go to the local high school girls' softball games. My daughter played in high school and college, and still plays in a local womens' city league. Some of those gals are wicked fast pitchers. 60-70 mph+ . Seen this gal play a game:
AI Overview
The highest paid softball player is NiJaree Canady, who signed a $1 million Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deal with Texas Tech. This is the highest amount paid to a college softball player, surpassing previous records like Montana Fouts' $136,000 NIL deal. Monica Abbott was previously known as the highest paid player in professional softball, signing a $1 million, six-year contract with the Scrap Yard Dawgs.
AI Overview
Nijaree Canady, a pitcher for Stanford University, throws her fastball at speeds of around 75 mph. She also has a changeup that she throws at a slower speed, which she's been using more effectively as a sophomore. Some reports indicate she has thrown up to 77 mph previously.
Don't know why that pic is what the AI picked out for her, she's not white. The pic is maybe Pickens?
Nah, it's Abbot.

I think she made the right choice...
She's probably more at home at Texas Tech...she's from Kansas...Stanford might have been a bit too "stuffy"...lol
It's responsible for giving it a platform. The players are making it a success.
It's called 'marketing'. Doesn't matter how great they are unless lots of people actually see them play, dumbass.
You seem to think name calling is a way of self enhancement, making up for your low intelligence as evidenced in this thread.
You seem to think my descriptions of you and your ilk are not true. They are, halfwit.

Please note what I said in my prior post - I believe we're in agreement - attendance and viewership have skyrocketed with the advent of CC.Viewership has only recently skyrocketed with the arrival of Clark. Who do you think kept the wnba afloat for the 28 years before she showed up?

For the purposes of clarity you said:
"I don't know if it's fair to claim "the NBA carries the WNBA" since viewership and attendance have skyrocketed."
The NBA has carried and as noted in my link the NBA will continue to carry the WNBA. The appearance of Clark is no doubt a huge boon for the WNBA but it will be a long time before the WNBA is a money making prospect. I hope for their sake they get more clark quality players but until then it's the NBA that's keeping the lights on for them.
