That is true, have heard repeatedly that WNBA lost $50 million on the season. But what with the salaries topping out around the $80k area, seems a bit hard to believe. Of course, we watched the CC show every chance, and most of the nose-bleed seats were occupied, and didn't watch many of the other games, so cannot draw any conclusions other than CC put butts in the seats. Will need a couple of other young superstars (yes, looking at you Paige), to continue the growth. TV certainly kicks in some big bucks, and will do more undoubtedly, IF the advertisers are there. Fans in the stands will make up a smaller increment of total income, more in the 'cover the expenses' category. Anyway, WNBA has the opportunity to be in the growth industry category. Hope it continues. PS, in an aside, daughter's HS team went to Las Vegas for a WBB tournament, and the HC asked me which one was my daughter (am 6'6"). We were playing in women's gym, and she took me over to see men's gym. About ten times more seating (even had a Tark parking place out front). She sighed, and said maybe one day the women can fill up that arena.
