  1. There have been at least two.
  2. Her first game wasnt streamed yet drew 400k watching a live stream that someone filmed on their phone at the game. There is PLENTY of interest in her as well. Not as much as CC but still plenty. EDIT: my fault it was 600k https://www.blackenterprise.com/fan-livestreams-angel-reese-debut/
  3. So many of these guys need women in the room when they talk about women's sports. Complete clown shit.
  4. People hated her before she said anything in a presser. Her statements in that presser were due to actual fucking death threats simply because she did CC's celebration TO CC and had the audacity to beat her team.
  5. Hmmmm......wonder why this is. Especially when CC is just as bad on the court. Maybe worse.
  6. Yeah that's stupid on levels. Competitors are gonna compete. Additionally, there are 144 spots in the league and players dont last long. Its super competitive. 1st round picks are cut annually. They may or may not reap the rewards of the league growth. To me its WAY better theater for CC to overcome adversity. Further, its not 100% that she will be the dominant player that so many have seemed to guarantee. Being the #1 scorer in the NCAA does not guarantee it. The #3 (Dyashia Fair) scorer just got cut. The #2 scorer (Kelsey Plum) is an all star but not a franchise player, the #4 scorer is CC's teammate (Kelsey Mitchell) that everyone wants to give up the ball to CC.
  7. There is probably some of that. IND plays at the same stadium as the Pacers which I'm sure also has a pretty large concert schedule in the summer but 6 of those 10 have been road games. Almost all of them have been national broadcasts. That is the league milking the cash cow.
  8. First and foremost, the offer was a publicity stunt that Cube knew she wouldnt take. He just sold his first franchise for 10M. How in the world is he going to pay her 5M for 15 gms? Yall love to rag on the W not making money, but you think the Big3 is? 2nd the Big3 players make about 10k/gm. You really think they are gonna be cool with her coming in making 50 times that? On top of that dudes are generally misogynistic particularly when it comes to sports. You really think they aren't going to go out of their way to show that she doesnt belong playing with men? If they cannot play with HS boys how is she going to play with male professional basketball players?
  9. Basically. In a league where flopping is far less rewarded.
  10. You said "take Ice Cube's offer". Cube doesnt run a women's league.
  11. Right, admits that he doesnt watch. Gives a "factual" account about the league.
  12. LOL, you think the men would be gentle with her and allow her to score? Yall are hilarious.
  13. Meh, she hip checked her a bit. That wasnt some "assault" or "attack" like so many are making it out to be. Clark acting like she got shot is fucking ridiculous. She flops constantly, stiff arms when she has the ball and talks shit all the time. Yeah a top level competitor is going to eventually have an issue with that.
  14. Last year, a Bloomberg News report found the WNBA was projected to make $180 million to $200 million for the 2023 season. https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/women-basketball-players-pay-discrepancy-record-viewership-explained-rcna148233
  15. Yep, its why the NBA just stopped allowing prop betting on guys on 2 way contracts after Jontay Porter was banned
  16. There aint one chance in hell that man is 12
  17. Right, her tweet was directed at Barkley and the like not Caitlin.
  18. She isnt trying to do anything but share the spotlight.
  19. Well, the vast majority of white people actually know and claim their ethnicity (Italian, Irish, Scottish, etc). Black Americans had that ability taken away and consequently all generally get lumped into "African-American or just Black"
