Does anyone actually watch this shit?

If you want an actual argument the average WNBA franchise valuation has gone from something like $95m two ish years ago to $427m today. The owners can afford to pay them more.

Propaganda!

8 million isn’t generating revenue when it comes to professional sports…

But for argument purposes…you are absolutely correct. They did turn a profit this year.

Call me crazy but I expect to see a hump here…not a :chart_increasing:

Im not arguing. I’m stating facts.

I don’t even watch but the league objectively got a dramatic jump in revenue in the last 12 months.

That’s not an opinion

Mark Davis bought the Aces for 2 million in 2021. They are worth 500 million today.

The Golden State expansion team went for 50 million two years after the Aces went for million

The extremely wealthy build their wealth off of equity not cash flows. The WNBA owners have been slaying it in that regard recently.

Soon @Thats2 and I are starting a robot football league with chainsaws and rocket launchers and what not. Think Death Race meets Puppy Bowl. Anybody want to invest?

Could go poorly for us once the singularity arrives but we’ll worry about that later.

Now we’re talking ^

I’d watch that shit

You know sports of all kinds are about whether or not you appreciate the level of competition. Complaining about the WNBA on your way to a little league game seems funny to me. I’m going to a single A baseball game before the seasons over, I know I know, what an idiot.

Worth 500 million??? To who? Lol…that evaluation is bonkers.

I get it. I also didn’t say anything you stated was false. I am just not a believer in the WNBA being some major ascending market. Sure it’s on a “high” right now. But I don’t expect it to be sustained…I also don’t really care either way :man_shrugging:t2:

That’s fine you as an individual feel that way but the players who watched the league go from unprofitable to 10X revenue and profitable and 50X franchise evaluations don’t have any right to ask for more money lol?

No workforce on Earth would see this and not want a cut

She’s not even the best player on her team and she’ll tell you that.

Merchandise and ticket sales had nearly trippled before she set foot in the league but she was the catalyst for TV deal.

The league was already on the way up

Nameless?
