Look up the definition of "counterpart" and find me the demand requirement you keep claiming exists. You're really out here making up definitions and you don't think anyone will speak on it? :dahell:
They're counterparts in name and name only. You feel that's enough to get a same salary.

I can say the same about pop warner and professional football players.

They're both "football players", right?

This is my quote from earlier in the thread.

Really, just the one? Fact remains that most people aren't willing to pay to watch (or even watch for free) atleast 80% of women's sports. One sex is bigger, stronger, and faster than the other, why waste time with the inferior product? :manny:

1. Stop quoting me.
2. Up your reading comprehension.

You've basically been wasting my time because you don't know what "counterpart" means.

You've been defending this counterpoint angle tooth and nail. Screw all that. It's dumb.

Nope, that's just an arbitrary definition by yourself. Counterparts hold the same position or perform the same function. The NBA is the premier American basketball league for MEN. The WNBA is the premier American basketball league for WOMEN. They are COUNTERPARTS, the demand for the product is a different discussion.
what the hell :mjlol:

This is a good point. :ehh:

However, women make up 50% of the population if they really wanted to make up some of the difference of incomes they could, by simply supporting the WNBA. Unfortunately a lot of women don't watch sports and the ones that do also consider the WNBA an inferior product so why support. :yeshrug:
Yeah I love basketball but the WNBA is no where near as entertaining as the NBA. Even though I caught a NY vs Indiana game a few weeks ago that was surprisingly entertaining the chicks playing were pretty decent :ehh:.

That said it's just not a mainstream sport but I'll say if I have a daughter that likes basketball like her dad I wouldn't mind taking my little brehette to some WNBA games.

But real talk and someone mentioned this before the "lesbian" vibe has rubbed some families with little girls that may have been interested that wanted a family atmosphere feeling like they at a LGBT event. My sister took our little female cousins to a WNBA game by herself one time and said these two stud hoes was trying to holla at her in front our little cousins :skip:.

I wonder if some players who aren't wanted (or willing to play) overseas have day jobs or seasonal jobs. :jbhmm:

I think it's branding. They need that one player who has it all. Style, skills, looks , etc to make it more interesting. I've watched and it's just not as competitive as it should be.
