OT: Unintentionally hilarious WNBA ads airing during playoff

[ramshackle75]

2 ways to fix the WNBA so your average meathead would watch.

1. Lower the rim. There are always exceptions, but women tend to be pretty agile. Look at some of the things figure skaters pull off in the middle of a jump. Now if the rim was at a height where your average WNBA-er could do some kind of triple-spin-splits thing in mid-air, then throw it down ... Yeah, this meathead might watch that.

And if that fails:

2. Skimpy clothing. Sexist, sure, but most guys don't tend to watch women's sports for their athletic abilities. Sorry ladies.

I feel bad for your daughters

Don't, they're wonderful little girls who get tons of love and attention and will be able to become anything they want when they grow up. But they won't be lied to that the quality of play in the WNBA is the same as the NBA. And if they have no interest in it, I won't force them to pay for it and watch it the way the NBA does to us now.

The WNBA sucks.

And I am not being sexist because, I will watch a NCAA womens game if it is the only thing on. And I will enjoy it. I really did like watching Diana Taurasi, and Candace Parker playing.

Womens NCAA basketball is so SOO much better then the WNBA.

NCAA Coaches >>>>WNBA

Agreed. While I certainly don't go out of my way to watch women's hoops, there is some good stuff going on in the NCAA's.

However it gets boring watching people take layups and, sorry to say it, shoot like girls (line-drive shots pushed out from the chest).

I don't begrudge them...they are good players and deserve to have the chance to play.

But enough with trying to convince us all that it's as good or better than the NBA. And enough with the NBA financing the league that hasn't turned a profit in its entire 10 yr history. That's called capitalism...you put out a product, no one likes it, you don't make money, you close shop and go home. Instead the NBA forks over money people pay for all things NBA to the WNBA, which I guarantee most NBA-paying folks don't WANT to support with their money

It simply comes down to the quality of play. The teams are not constructed properly, they do not run normal sound basketball. No avid basketball fanatic or even fundamentalist would enjoy such a show.
