Are sports based on stars? Is that why WNBA hasn’t taken off well?

[OddBeMe]

I think everything successful is built around personalizes, right?

Yes

No

Women's sport can never put up a show and be entertaining, competitive and charismatic like Men's sports and it can never have the energy and passion that Men's counterparts have, that's just biology.

Women athletes can't even match Amateur men , so why would anyone watch an inferior counterpart. Maybe the fact that best WNBA team would get destroyed by NCAA champion boys plays a role

Despite these, sports audience is male dominated , Women prefer watching things like the show run by Kardashians more And guess what? They're multi millionaires

[JonCobretti]

Also, the US team in the picture lost terribly to a team of retired 45+ Men.. so badly that they had to stop the match before half time or something

[JonCobretti]

Ok so firstly I deleted your opinion by mistake, don't yell at me for that
Now.. The dude she beat was FUCKING 55 YEARS OLD FOR CHRIST'S SAKE
Yeah so we all know that if we put current World's best man at any sport against world's best woman , she is getting destroyed no matter how hard you simps and feminists cry

World class losing to college kids? So much more than 15% difference dude

[JonCobretti]

Hey are we going to ignore how 203rd guy beat the Williams sisters back to back?

Well sorta, pro sports is all based on revenue, and big stars means more revenue. WNBA has taken off compared to what it was a couple years ago, but it’s still quite insignificant compared the nba which has been huge for a century. Don’t ask me why, basketball is about as exciting as watching paint dry but apparently some people like it

[OddBeMe]

Why it seems like the game of basketball no matter who’s playing. Whats the actual reason you find it so boring?

[Redstang88]

Don’t know, never liked playing never liked watching

[OddBeMe]

Me neither. I guess I wonder why sports lovers don’t like watching the other gender play it.

[NathanDavis]

soccer is an actual, international competition that spreads world wide... and it might actually be the ONLY true world champions the USA has ever had

the girls in soccer...

basketball is local

[TopShelfMan]

It is largely based on ability and performance. It isn't as exciting watching "professionals" that some regular people that were never on a pro or college team could out perform.

[Iron_Man]

is that your favorite women’s basketball player?

[OddBeMe]

I never heard of her until today. Stole the pic from another persons post.

Why she a liberal ahole? Lol

[Iron_Man]

no but she’s very popular. Do you like her?

[Iron_Man]

She was the best college basketball player

[OddBeMe]

As I just said I never heard of her.

[Iron_Man]

Ok then

[OddBeMe]

I have no interest in sports. But as a marketer I had a thought that there aren't any advertised players so much in the wnba. Despite what everyone here thinks of women in sports lol

[Iron_Man]

Well she was the never one draft pick coming out of college

[OddBeMe]

Just more advertising could help. Mix in housewife of OC with basketball.

[Iron_Man]

Ok I see
