I followed some of the teams when the league first formed. I was a big fan of the Toxic Shock, which was the Detroit franchise that later moved to Tulsa and was coached by Nolan Richardson. They moved the team to Dallas, earning Red Wings as their new name. The Milwaukee Froth were pretty fun to watch when they were in the league. They had a guard named Michelle Yeestie who had an itchy shooting finger and used to put up shots from everywhere. The Santa Fe Taco were a pretty good team but they folded, as were the Chicago Flow, who are also defunct after bleeding money and operating in the red for years. They can't seem to keep these teams afloat for long enough to build a fanbase, unfortunately.

It only survives by being subsidized by the NBA. In other words, there's no actual demand it's just a big charity case.

Have you ever been to a WNBA game? Please share your experience.

Discuss.
Obviously, you are not a Lesbian.

Damn. I didn't know any male WNBA apologists existed. You have opened my eyes.

Oh, and I'll bet you 75% of those 7,000 who attend the games get in for free.

Any Dude that watches the WNBA is the same Dude that watches "Sex in the City". Case closed. End of discussion.

That's what you said to the guy you were giving a "W.C. Handy" to in the public men's room on Beale Street.
This retort from a Dude that admitted watching the freaking WNBA and has an avatar celebrating Beastiality. :) This should be the next video topic for "Squirrel", the Redneck Florida Fan.
