$10 million for WNBA champs to play a boy's high school team

He made a public proposition. It would be legally binding. What is stupid is turning it down. But for the Left, it would be a PR disaster as it would show the stupidity of the whole trans movement in sports, among other things.
Turning what down? Are you saying that the prep school has an all trans team? I assume he thinks the boys will win. So what's in it for the WNBA? What's to 'turn down'?
 
I dont follow any sports anymore, but I have been told that WNBA basketball is shit in part because of how they choose to play.....independent of skill.....is this true?
No, not true. How do you play basketball "independent of skill"? I paid no attention to the WNBA until last year. Now a fan. How's this for skill - At the All Star Game a couple of weeks ago Azzi Fudd took 27 three point shots in one minute and ten seconds and made 21 of them.

No, the WNBA is moronic social commentary and isn't taken seriously by anyone but fools.
Says the chief fool of this thread. What commentary? Like the NBA it's a natural progression from the college female game which is also popular. The arenas this year are selling out for these games with male attendance equal to female attendance.

The players may or may not have skill.....but the game sucks is the argument.

but you recognize what a stupid argument that is right?

I remember in the early days of the Rotten Tomato's Chat forum someone saying 'all actions movies suck and should not be made' as they argued only movies that make you 'think' and not movies where people say they 'turn off their brain', should be made.

People who think that way, just as ones who say the 'game sucks' are so incredibly arrogant and myopic that they think that only THEIR opinion matters and every one else should like what they like or they are wrong.

Different people will enjoy different things.

I dont watch any sports anymore.....but that the game sucks is very possible...I have spent a lifetime watching sports be ruined by owners and greed and players who dont believe in the concept of team.

Are you capable of understanding that when you say a sport 'sucks' that is your SOLE SUBJECTIVE JUDGEMENT.

You may not like ballet. You may not like art. You may not like baseball or cricket or squash or soccer. And so on and so on. You may think Drama movies or Rom Coms are best and action movies are terrible...

But again i ask, are you a person capable of understanding you are only speaking for YOU. A thing does not 'suck' simply because it is not your cup of tea (you might hate tea and love coffee).

But anyway i am always surprised by people who seem to not understand that.

One of the attractions of the WNBA is the appreciation you see "in the concept of team". Showboating is about zero.

Just because you don't understand basketball, doesn't mean millions of fans don't take it seriously. In truth, Caitlin Clark has exploded the fanbase just as Michael Jordan single handedly saved the NBA.

Decades ago, NCAA women's basketball was the only place to find the game played as it should be. No dunking, No showboating. Just team play
 
how is not just stupid grandstanding?

We all know a top boys team will win just as we know a team of top 15 year old girls would beat a top team of 5 year old boys.

It is stupid and pointless.
Except that is likely not the case. HS boys are not as disciplined in their team game as professional players. They are not as experienced. A pro women's basketball team will have played often against male players since that is how they practice. The boys may physically outmatch the women but they won't be able to mentally keep up or play 12 players of high caliber. This would be like claiming there is no way USA men's pro basketball players would ever lose to a national team from another country. We all know how that has turned out in previous years in the Olympics. A good team playing team ball can beat stronger individuals.

Is that so?
