      Equality of outcome JUST for the sake of equality of outcome, the revenues actually generated be damned, is the polar opposite of actual equality, isn't it? I thought paying someone the same or more just because who they are as opposed to what they produce is the prejudice we've fought against for decades, isn't it?

      72 million divided by 6 years is 12 million per year, and the NBA matches that, so basically the MEN's NBA is donating 50% of the money that the women get, if the NBA said, NO MORE FREE MONEY to the WNBA, then all the WNBA players would see their pay cut in half, and these women feel they have the right to complain about the amount of money they get paid in comparison to the men who play in the NBA?!!?!?

Women are filling the stands when and were they can be seen by cameramen and by other women. Thats it. The pro athletes who are not lesbians often are very firty and have this "look at me, in very hot, athletic and fun to be around" attitude. I see that in female pro tenins, soccer and field hockey players all the time and of course in gymnastics and cheerleaders, Its the modern alternative to be a dancer, showcasing your athletic genes to men. They often marry other athletes. So athletic genes get reinforced in their children. Basketball is odd since all the GOATs seem to be lesbians.

      ANDREW KLEMMER Actually, sadly, no, they don't. The NBA dancers, as well as NFL cheerleaders, get paid dismally, compared to most other dancers. If anything, THOSE ladies have a valid case for seeking better pay.
      Some barely make $100 a game. I'm not kidding. They do see their travel costs covered, but sports leagues expect these dancers and cheerleaders to make their money in other ways, like showing up at promotional gigs.
      Even though most sports dancers and cheerleaders have second jobs. That's not even counting the amount of time they spend for training, tryouts, and workouts. It's absurd, really. Billion-dollar leagues could do better here.
      So, yeah, I'm a guy, here to say: Pay these ladies better!

    It just baffles me how anyone in sports can't get around that one simple concept. It's only a pay gap because they're not selling the tickets. You have average ticket price of just under $17 for the WNBA versus $78 for the NBA and the WNBA games aren't bringing in the money from all the other sources as the NBA is.

    I happen to turn to a channel that had the WNBA on yesterday, 8-2-20, and there were more players, coaches, trainers, etc, than fans. They NBA needs to stop subsidizing the WNBA and let them sink or swim on their own.

    The WNBA players are finding out there's no Title 9 in the real world.

      Economics rule in the real world . Nike tried to give some of them shoe contracts but, when the came out fathers stopped buying the shoes. I think Candace Parker is doing well but she is straight . Imagine if Klay and Durant talked about how many women they slept with in the past year , they might lose some contracts. Keep your private life private.
