    If people don’t watch, then there’s fundamentally no money to be given to the players. If you want money to be given to the player, you need to watch.

    That’s how it works for women’s sports, and that’s how it works for men’s sports as well.

    Pay for all athletes is dictated by the viewership they bring in, not their performance. WNBA players actually make disproportionately more relative to viewership.

    You honestly talk like someone who’s never watched a sport in their life.
