The WNBA union has just voted to approve players going on strike if the upcoming contract negotiations aren’t approved. For too long the WNBA league has been abusing the players by not paying them enough. The players deserve to be paid what they’re worth. If the players go on strike, this would be absolutely devastating to fans all around the world. https://www.outkick.com/sports/wnba-players-vote-authorize-strike-cba-negotiations
they should get real jobs
>>524161047 Oh_No_anyway.jpeg
I always thought they were making minimum wage but I looked it up and they're making decent 100K+ salaries. Honestly, it's what any sport star should make.
ALRIGHT, NIGGERS, NAME ONE WNBA PLAYER RIGHT NOW OFF THE TOP OF YOU'RE HEAD. NO CHEATING. GO, DO IT, FAGGOTS.
>>524161047Them getting paid what they're worth would be a decrease in salary thoughbeit
It's the WAAAAAAHNBA.
Why can’t they just give them 100% of profits they generate?
>no w*men playing men's sportsO, noes...
>>524161435Kobe “Roast Beef” Bryant
>>524161047Good.Dissolve the WNBA.No one watches that shit.Fucking put on some other womens sport and refocus all that effort.
>>524161555A negative salary, innovative
I don't think anyone would object to them being paid what they are worth, so striking is unnecessary; not that anyone would notice if they did.
>>524161047I heard the town's Little League is going to go on strike if they don't get treated the same as the MLB
The NBA commissioner literally forced the networks to pay $200mil a year for the WNBA in the last negotiation for NBA rights despite no one watching dykeball. That's still not enough, apparently.
>>524161435Sophie Cunningham
>>524161047Disband the WNBA and replace it with a womens pro pillow fighting league
>>524161047I'm pretty sure they operate at a loss already. They should just shut it down and not pay them anything
>>524161047SHUT IT DOWN
>>524161047It’s been several months now, but I had previously done the math, and concluded that if WNBA players are going to be paid what they’re worth, each of them individually is going to have to pay the league about $32k per year.

>>524161047This would be like shooting themselves in the head with a shotgun.Female indoor Volleyball is gaining momentum, the plays are more exciting and the girls are hotter.
>>524161555The WNBA doesn’t generate a profit. Their salary is subsidized by the NBA.
>>524161780WNBA exists solely to allow an NBA held monopoly over all pro basketball as they only made the WNBA because some other money mark beat them to the punch in making one.The WNBA has never made money and solely exists as a power flex against anyone who might threaten the NBA stranglehold over American basketball
>>524162313
>>524161435Bronny James
lmao if they actually went on a strike the NBA would save millions of dollars
>>524161047>wnba players go on strike>absolutely nothing in the world changesKYS OP
Only about 1/5th of WNBA players are white and half of them identify as "mixed". We're talking about a league that's over 70% black. These people have zero concept of how money works, where it comes from or how it's distributed. Giving every player a 10 billion dollar salary doesn't seem even remotely unrealistic to them because they don't think in terms of logic. In their minds that money is just locked behind a door and some old white guy is just choosing to keep it from them. The NBA is already subsidizing the WNBA but they still think they're being robbed. Caitlin Clark boosted tv ratings and attendance by a factor of like 200% and their response was to constantly target her and try to injure her. Explaining the fact that they can't be paid more because the league doesn't generate any money is like trying to explain per capita. It's too complex for a primitive, pre-enlightenment brain.
>>524161047nobody gives a shit about the wnba. if you go on strike nobody will care.you make less because nobody cares. nobody is ever gonna care. we don't wanna watch a bunch of manly women play basketball. even women don't want to watch that. you are a makework daycare job. enjoy it. go have fun. but stop pretending you will ever be equal to mens sports.
>>524161333>it's what any sport star should makeNah, being that would not improve leagues and sport revenue would still be billions of dollars. That money, like water, has to flow some where. I'd rather see the current major league structures of 50%+ going to players than it flooding to already billionaire owners. It's not like the NFL would cut ticket prices to $5 if per team max salary was 53 x $100,000. NFL revenue is 22 billion a year. Going to pay all players a combined 170m?? So all of .007% of that revenue? The WNB does 10% to the players and has been shit for revenue for decades. Now they have a new 2 billion dollar media rights deal and growth. So players want to tie to revenue VS just a set salary number. Problem is league growth is due to Caitlin Clark.... and nobody else. So owners are saying hey we carried this league for decades, we should get more money now. Strike doesn't really help anyone being the WNBA player lack any public support. As nobody cares about the WNBA other than Caitlin Clark being a phenom
>>524161047Oh noes!
>>524161047what leverage do they have? as far as im aware they are a net loss. striking would be a good thing
>>524161435catelyn clark
>>524161435ashelia rinkou
>>524162968>aware they are a net loss.Apparently not anymore due to new marketing deals. Plus the current system is really weird. Damn near requires a full on MBA to grasp the break down. Like I'll link to info but if a person doesn't have a decent college education it's going to be pure gobbledygook. Being sport finance is this whole other animal than your normal make X at the cost of Y so pay this VS that...https://www.thenexthoops.com/wnba/everything-to-know-about-the-wnba-revenue-sharing-debate/https://herhoopstats.substack.com/p/wnba-revenue-sharing-rules-tv-contract
>>524161203Lady basketball *Pffffffff-hahahahaha* i-is a super real and serious careeeeeraaaa-aaahahahahhahaha
>>524162288Now try dressing those women in the same clothing that the WNBA players wear and see how popular it stays.
>>524161047>go on strike>owner's bank account goes up
>>524161333They deserve to get what the NBA players make
>>524161435Caitlyn Clark
>>524163752why? what's your point?Volleyball outfit is fine as it is.
>>524161435Victor Bout.
>>524161047Women organizing to steal from men. A tale as old as time.
>>524161435Caitlin clark, sophie cunningham, fuck you
>>524161435That one tranny that got arrested in russia.
>>524161047A strike would be devastating. For them.They would quickly realize that literally no one cares.
>>524163955They make what the shittiest nba players make, while playing substantially worse than the worst of the benchwarmers and drawing fewer viewers than the aforementioned benchwarmers. Their salaries are extremely generous all things considered.
>>524161937Which is why they are striking. The NBA will get shamed into further subsidizing them, and then individual NBA teams will have to raise prices to cover. It's literally socialism in sports.
>>524161047I for one support them getting a pay raise. To the same level as the NBA niggers. For one it's funny. Secondly the NBA is who subsidizes that garbage, so sucking them even more is also funny. You know the owners won't just absorb the loss, they will raise their prices. Which will screw over the retards that pay attention to the nigger basketball league. The negresses surely will not know how to actually save their money. So a bunch of them will spend like morons and end up bankrupt. Win win all around.
>>524161047OkPay the white girl everyone knows 15 mil a year.Pay all the literal who's 50k a year plus benefitsCongrats wnba now turns a profit
>>524161047They're already paid more than their worth.Unions used to be beneficial.Not anymore.Sad.
>>524161047>no wnbaoh no....the lesbian bar scene will be very sad
>>524163496I read the second link. It's basically everything any moron would say about the league without any knowledge. The fucking league has been operating at a loss for years and they wont share revenue because of one good year. You have to fucking pay back all the loss before you can start talking about asking for more. These stupid spoiled greedy nogs dont understand the passage of time or anything related to money. They just feel disrespected for not being paid after costing billions of dollars with zero profit. Fuck them. Never invest in niggers. I hope Caitlyn Clark is killed
>>524161047Major breaking news:Women don't want to work.
>>524161047>absolutely devastating to fans all around the worldWho? You?Lol
>>524161047NO PLEASE. What will we do without being able to watch teams of women try to play basketball and end the game at 14 to 20?
>>524161435Shaqwanda Williams.
>>524161047If we agreed to pay jannies a salary $1/yr, and if WNBA players were given profit sharing of 2% annually as payment: who would be richer, the jannie or the "athlete"?
>>524165461>2% of negative profitWNBA players would need to pay to play just like the rec league men who are better than them do.Captcha can't triforce.
>>524165662newfags can't triforce
>>524161047>wnba goes on strike>finds out no one gives a shitlmaaaaaaaaooooooooooooooo
Force them to wear volleyball outfits. Guarantee viewership goes up by at least 5%.
>>524164919>pay back all the loss before you can start talking aboutMore or less.. Like I'm still salty from my college days of being asked for gas money once for the rare time I wasn't the designated driver. Bitch I've covered gas on my dime for years but your first driver trip ever, your hand is out? Fuck off..Their response was an WNBA style yeah but I need gas today... As if the past doesn't exist.
>>524165936>>524165662>is always the correct answer
>>524161435Connie Lingus
>>524162515Volleyball would do better and those shorts would be a bonus
I stopped watching after Caitlin Clark endorsed Biden. I only watch Angel Reese lowlights on YouTube butter pecan bang.
>>524161047Both of their fans will be devastated by this
>>524161047They really self destructed when a white girl became their only star.
>>524166418Dang! they doubled their base?
>pay us what we are worth! Ok, it turns out after accounting for stadium costs you actually owe us $27,000 each.
>>524164919>I hope Caitlyn Clark is killedWell that certainly took a fucking turn.
>>524164012>>524163752Players in the WNBL (Australian women’s league) wore skintight bodysuits up until a few years ago. That was quite something to behold. These days they just wear the standard singlets and shorts.
who gives a shit?
>>524161435Kevin Durant that snake
>>524167312I do. I want to coom in this Hungarian goddess.
>>524161435Angel Reese
>>524167471That girl kinda looks like my wife who I just creampied
the ny liberty are building a practice facility on a literal super-fund siteKWAB
>>524161047They should come up with ideas to draw in viewers, have they ever considered playing in underwear?
>>524161047Sorry but women sports aren’t interesting unless it’s beach volleyball or pole vaulting
>>524161047>wnba strikes>all twelve fans saddened they can't watch ugly women suck at sportsball
>>524161435kayla jackson. i dont know if thats a real wnba player, but ill take the action
>>524168592American bball players look like goblins and something like 90% are lesbians.I rather stick with vball, there there's a definite difference in the way women and men play and both still reach the game objectives instead of having this low effort (no dunks), low points bullshit, making women bball feel like you're watching a pharce.Women vball is more tactical and relies more in positioning while also having the option of monster kills; men's is more explosive and power driven and is faster.I personally like women vball best because of its pace, I find it comfy, plus the shortest shorts you can see in sports are but a plus.
>>524161435I think there was one called the merchant of death
>>524168877chekt and I'm following that bet
>>524161047strike means they won't play, so where is the problem
>>524161047They should get paid what they are worth. Cancel the league.
>>524161047IMO (and this applies to men's sports too) players should be paid the average income of the city they play for and should be provided (and required to use) room, board, and training at team-owned facilities.
>>524161047>The players deserve to be paid what they’re worth.They should work in a brothel, or maybe OnlyFans -- then they'd have a viewership of more than 10k
>>524161047Kek if you watch the best WNBA players and compare them to niggas from Charlotte Hornets (67 lamelo ball lfg) it's not even close, women are effectively a different species when compared to males when it comes to physical sports.
>>524166198I had exactly one where there were two semicircles and a crescent. So that seems to be the sole exception.
>>524169147they should play naked, that will solve the viewership issue in the WNBA.
>>524161047>demand what they “deserve” (i.e. more money)>are subsidized by male leagueHow is it possible to even like women as humans? Why did nature make them so despicable?
>>524161446this
>>524161047She voted for it.Now all the niggers in the NBA are going to have to cough up more out of their pay to subsidize them.
>>524167471She should be pregnant, not playing at being some athlete. Whole point of athletes is to watch superhumans. Otherwise paying to watch children would also be big along with foid sports.
>>524169263ill buy courtside seats and nachos and wait for the inevitable
We’re being gaslit into throwing rubber dongs on the court again aren’t we?
>>524169263Nah, as has been pointed out most of them are fugly sheboon dykes.
>>524161047My pervy old fart dad likes to watch women's volleyball. It's about as relevant as the WNBA but at least the women are better looking and mostly white.I gotta admit, some of those "corn fed" volleyballers are kind of hot, in a "Mrs. Schwarzenegger" kind of way.
They were lead into doing this because WNBA refuse to disclose the books, and the first thing that they conclude is that WNBA must've been making a big fact paycheck and that they were hiding it from them.Oh boy, oh boy.
>>524161047The WNBA should have folded a long time ago. The NBA subsidizes them. If they can’t stand on their own it’s time to fold up shop.
>>524170079
>>524161937but how much of that $200mil do the players get?That's why they're striking anon, they're seeing big media contracts and soaring franchise values but it's all going into the pockets of the owners
>>524172540The league operates at a loss. There is no money for the players. Even the owners aren’t pocketing anything.
>>524161047kek
Wahman's sports deserve nothing.
>>524161435Hideo Kojima
I hope they get 100% of the WNBA's profitswait
>>524161047Americans...does anybody watch this shit? Women's sport is being pumped big time here. And they all suck because they are horning in on trad men's sports and going *cough cough we have fucking balls you limp cunts watch us run round with our flapping vaginas.* But nobody really cares because it's like watching not very good children play. Also...pretty much all men's good sports are now infested with women. There's cunts in the team "group", bitches on commentary...insufferable stupid cunts, there's know-nothing women everywhere. These are commie tactics. Most Australians love it I suppose.
a strike only works if you produce surplus value for your employerif you are creating a net loss then your boss will sure as fuck be happy that you're no longer working, kek
>>524164531I honestly have no idea how these dysfunctional ideologies ever even took root and managed to survive till this day.>we should heavily punish a system that actually works (which is the reason it generates profits we can steal)>to put this other system which clearly does not work (or else it wouldn't need the gibs) on life supportit is completely fucking dysgenic and should be easily out-competed by every other system. how did it survive for centuries?
>>524161555>tripsIf what economic worth is the standard of payment, they should be paying the league for organizing an annual tournament, paying the staff, arranging travel and board, arbritrating between teams, packaging broadcast rights, etc. Parents in small towns have to pay for little leagues to be organized for their kids. That's what the WNBA is, little league for grown women.
>>524161435Brittney Griner. Retard brought drugs into Russia, and Biden traded her for fucking Victor Bout.
>>524161047No one watches womens sports unless they are hot, like mud wrestling or beach volleyball.
>>524161555It's the way it's split up.The NBA's pay is spilt between the owners and players.The WNBA is split 5 or 6 ways.
>>524163929>>524177677>Brick City Mixtapes Volume 8IYKYK
>>524161555That's just being willfully ignorant of the established structures that make televised basketball a thing.
>>524166173would have been the point where that person never got to ride in my car again, even if they offered to pay the whole gas bill by themselves.
>>524167304will women ever grow up and acknowledge that men only pay attention to them for sexual reasons?
>>524161047Nobody would care, the NBA would get cut off a huge, growing tumour that drains money from them.
>>524178513>Nobody would careIt would be entertaining to laugh at.
>>524161333They're also entirely subsidised by the men (not that anyone SHOuLD make dix gorillion for putting a ball in a net, but the NBA at least turns its own profit based on an actual demand)
>>524161047
Imagine getting paid to play a children's game (sports).
