He's arguing against a point that was never made and trying to me accountable to that point.

LOL, actually it's you that is being pissy because you jumped the gun. Hawkeye made 2 posts. I quoted one, but addressed both. In the post I didn't quote, he said the WNBA was getting better ratings than the NBA playoffs. I gave him information that showed he was wrong. You evidently wanted to call me out on that because I omitted that other post. I gave you the post where he mentioned that, and you apparently got offended by it. I mean, all you had to say was, "Ah, missed it ", and I would've replied with a "" and done. But, you needed to post historical ratings, which I never argued and wanted to say I was wrong... even though, I wasn't. I simply stated that the NBA ratings got over a 6 for the playoffs and had the highest finals in 6 years. I don't care how or why they were generated because that wasn't the point or the argument... just that the NBA playoffs were getting better ratings than the WNBA.

Then blame NBA.com I gave you the focking link. LOL

Yes, he is.

I got the numbers from google which pulled them from the NBA.com. If you have an issue, then your issue is with google and the NBA.

"My" numbers aren't off. If "those" numbers are off, you only have you take that up with the NBA.

Yup

The NBA, like baseball, is all about the playoffs because of the length of the season. Same with hockey. NFL only has 17 games (18 weeks), plus 90% of the games that week are on the same day at roughly the same time, that's why they get great weekly ratings. Also, I noted the whole playoffs too, not just the finals. As mentioned as well, people aren't watching WNBA games, they're watching Caitlan Clark games. Her games got as high as a 1.7 rating, the average is 1.0. That means the non-Clark games are getting about 1.0 less than Clark. Take her out of the picture and nobody is watching.

LOL The NBA playoffs got a 6.7 rating, the finals got the highest rating in 6 years. WNBA ratings are 100% driven by Clark.

The WNBA will NEVER be independently profitable. Ever.

They need to stop making Clark out to be the white devil and promote the heII out of her and protect her. The league should tell their players to STFU about race... man hating also. The WNBA's biggest demographic is white men. Why? Because they're buying tickets for their daughters. Women and minorities aren't going or watching as much. Trashing the majority and pandering to the minority is only going to hurt their popularity. Why not just be truthful?

They need to hit as many major markets they can to capitalize on Clark's popularity. It's hard to get people interested in your sport, league, or teams if there's no team in your area. Get into more major markets to get more eyes on the product. They need to entice more girls to play.

I think this is a good idea. People thought UConn's dynasty was bad for women's basketball, but what it was, was the catalyst. People starting taking notice in women's basketball because they wanted to see if these girls were really this great. They were, and it inspired more girls to play and spread the talent more across the country. It's no longer the UConn Women's basketball league and 200 other schools vying for 2nd place, it's gotten to the point where men's college basketball was in 50's with about 20 good schools and people starting to take notice. They need to continue this trend. Yes, the only reason why viewership is up, is because of Clark. But, it brings viewers. Viewers mean interest and translates to more girls playing. The more girls that play, the better the product gets. The WNBA just needs to make sure they don't destroy the goose that lays the golden eggs.

I don't believe that this is what he's doing. He is voting for the candidate he likes over the rest, but he'd much rather have his 3rd choice if it means defeating the one he doesn't like, instead of his second. I'm ok with a ranking system for primaries, but not for general elections.

Considering the target, I'm guessing this is someone with a personal axe to grind and nothing to do with political agendas.
