Adding chartered flights for teams.
$50M/year.
I'd love to see a breakdown of how much money they're making vs expenses.

$200M revenue at present.
All I can find is stuff saying that the WNBA isn't profitable. But no more details than the above.The NBA provides the WNBA with an annual endowment of over $15 million. This financial support helps cover various operating costs for WNBA teams, including facilities, travel, marketing, and administration. As of 2023, the NBA owns 50% of the WNBA, while the 12 WNBA teams collectively own the other 50%.
It's not me, it's someone else.

Spending 25% of that on charter flights over a two year period seems ill advised.

I wonder if they'd rather have that $$ as salary. They have 11% of revenue now, iirc, which is about $22M... so they could double their salaries instead.

I'd want the money.

Last night Twitter was buzzing because of some incident that happened to some Chicago Sky players. The players were making serious demands about security and how this was traumatic and dangerous and yada yada yada. I couldn't find an article on ESPN about it, so I figured it was a crazy fan or something.
Keep in mind, this was a single day after Caitlyn Clark's main rival, Reece, went public shitting on Clark's popularity and proclaiming she deserves said treatment too and that "in 20 years you'll all be watching the WNBA because of me."
Here's the incident:

Caitlyn Clark left off Olympics team for some reason.

I don't think it's intentional. I think they just suck.

Monica McNutt is a racist.
Reese's team is half a game ahead of Clark's.

Another ESPN talking head shows their bigotry.
BTW, Angel Reese has inflated rebounding stats because she routinely rebounds her own missed layups. Not kidding.

Capitalizing on Caitlin Clark's popularity, the WNBA is raking in massive profits.
Oh, wait, no, the "WNBA will lose $40 million this season."
Things may change in 2 years with the new contract

Which is $100M more in revenue per year than their current contract. Which implies profits of around $50-$60 million per year, assuming no other significant changes.Starting in the 2026 season, the WNBA will get up to $2.2 billion over 11 years as part of the new basketball media contracts.

Have you noticed how hard they're pushing it?
ESPN has their games above the fold every fucking day for me despite me never clicking them nor having the WNBA as one of my fav leagues.
