You can either keep believing the @WNBA flies below the radar because its players don’t fly above the rim. Or … You can read THIS ➡️ si.com/wnba/2021/05/1… @SInow @adamduerson @jmkliegman
@katefagan3 @WNBA @SInow @adamduerson @jmkliegman Seems fairly obvious. There are not as many female sports fans as male sports fans and men would rather watch men. If you want more people watching, get more women interested in sports
@katefagan3 @WNBA @SInow @adamduerson @jmkliegman I don’t watch because it’s not entertaining watching people who aren’t the best in the world play a sport. Simple as that. High school basketball is played at a higher tempo. Not sure how that’s flawed
@katefagan3 @WNBA @SInow @adamduerson @jmkliegman All credibility is lost: "... we can actively recognize that no athletes in modern history have faced more cultural obstacles than the players of the W." Imagine ignoring the million of women all over the world that cannot even participate in sports simply because they're women.
@katefagan3 @WNBA @SInow @adamduerson @jmkliegman Great article Kate
@katefagan3 @WNBA @SInow @adamduerson @jmkliegman At @PhillyInquirer where she once worked as a colleague in the @phillysport one could say Kate gives this topic the full Barlett @ Steele. Yes it’s long but it is impactful and relevant.
@katefagan3 @WNBA @SInow @adamduerson @jmkliegman Boring. Sorry but it is not and never will be anything more than a pc obligation.
@katefagan3 @WNBA @SInow @adamduerson @jmkliegman FWIW, my issues w/ the WNBA are different - I was a big ABL fan, went to 3 Chicago Condors games and saw games in other cities. Quality was much better esp regular season - WNBA's shortened season, players coming from dif intl. leagues, really makes an impact. I still watch but
@katefagan3 @WNBA @SInow @adamduerson @jmkliegman I dont watch the WNBA for the same reason I dont watch certain mens sports, because it's uninteresting and isn't that entertaining. If you want to watch it, thats all good just don't try to make others watch it and if they don't don't make them feel bad about it.
