It's a male-subsidized league. We gave you your fuck**g league, none of you showed up!!!” — Bill Burr reflects on the NBA-WNBA pay gap
Smgdh
Ummm you put the "***" in the wrong place morons
In his unique comedic style, Burr brings up a fact most people don't know - that the NBA covers WNBA losses each year. The women's league is yet to turn a profit since it's inception in 1997.

Not to mention all the built-in value the NBA provided for the game of basketball outright, which the WNBA got to coast on for free.
When the NBA kicked off, professional basketball was basically not a thing.

They don't get paid less because they need to "pay dues".elartman1973 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 21, 2022 4:59 pm The wnba is basically as old as the nba in the early 70s...the nba wasn't paying players gobs of money then either..that took time..they need to pay thier dues
They get paid less because they can't generate any meaningful amount of economic productivity.
If people gave a shit, they would have flooded the WNBA with eyeballs immediately and WNBA players would have been compensated accordingly.
The NBA was a trailblazer. The WNBA tried to walked the path the NBA already laid out and immediately fell flat on its face.
In MMA, Ronda Rousey had to pay peanuts worth of "dues" compared to male fighters of her era, let alone male fighters of the mid or even late 90s (roughly equivalent to WMMA in 2012-2014), but she got paid more than pretty much every male fighter except two or three...because people wanted to part with their money to watch her.

Not to mention currently 5-6 WNBA teams play in massive arenas paying rent where their NBA counterparts play in. At least some teams play in smaller college venues, and the Sun play inside an arena inside a casino.elartman1973 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 21, 2022 4:59 pmThe wnba is basically as old as the nba in the early 70s...the nba wasn't paying players gobs of money then either..that took time..they need to pay thier duesBush4Ever. wrote: ↑Thu Jul 21, 2022 4:56 pm Not to mention all the built-in value the NBA provided for the game of basketball outright, which the WNBA got to coast on for free.

Working hard and "paying dues" but not generating economic productivity will not equal big compensation.elartman1973 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 21, 2022 5:22 pm Ummm no shit moron..what exactly do you think paying your dues implied?
Plenty of manual laborers work extremely hard and pay dues, but don't get compensated amazingly well.
Plenty of social media "influencers" work in a relatively normal way, but generate money up the butthole.
Jake Paul in his first boxing match made more money than 99 percent of boxers will ever make for a fight, and paid extremely minimal dues.
Plenty of WNBA players work reasonably hard (I assume). It doesn't matter because no one cares and no one wants to watch.

I'm not in any way interested in this unnecessary exchange of multiple threads you're trying to initiate where you claim I meant something I didn't mean. I didn't read your post beyond line one
Move on
