Just another anti-WNBA statement for me to debunk. Vick’s Dogs » Blog Archive » Why I hate the WNBA Quote:

For starters, if you consider yourself a fan of the WNBA, stop reading this article and kill yourself. I cannot believe that I live in a country which has a professional women’s basketball league. There are way too many politically correct people that think women are equal. The truth is they aren’t.

In what ways are women not equal? Honestly, neither men or women are perfect, but there are those who won't put their egos aside on this. BTW, there are other countries besides the US to have a professional baskettball league for women like the WNBA and that includes places like Europe, Israel, China, and Australia. Are those places politically correct in having such a league as well as the US? If womens rights are such a bother than move to places like the Arabian Peninsula, Iran, Southeast Asia, and Africa where women are still treated like second class citizens.

Of the 2259 top-earning corporate officers in the Fortune 500 companies, 118 (5.2 percent) are women. The reason is that most women are ****ing morons. How many near accidents have been cause by female drivers? How many dumb ass *****es have you met who were only good at sucking ****? But thank god women exist because I certainly don’t want to cook or clean. Your right, I shouldn’t judge all women - about 5% are capable human beings who have the capacity to make a difference in this world.

It's obvious that this paragraph is made out of sexism. Unfortunately, only in the last centruy have women been allowed major positions with some only being more recent. However, that number has been increasing lately with more women rising up. The only reason why women were housewives for such a long time was b/c of the strict laws placed on them. As for the accidents that are caused by women, should I say men are bad drivers if more were caused by them? I am sure that nobody would like that.

Now back to athletics. Women are just not athletic. They are not on the same playing field as men. In this situation we are discussing basketball. Besides Cheryl Miller who is a man (in 1986 she was regarded as the best basketball player in the world male or female) there has never been a female athlete remotely comparable to any male. “Big Country” Bryant Reeves would have about 8 championships if they let him play in the WNBA. I was watching Sportscenter awhile back and saw a woman get a technical for dunking. WHAT THE ****! Why would you get a technical for dominating your opponent? The referee (he was clearly a *****) said it was unsportsmanlike.

I what ways are women not athletic? Everyone has to build up to be good at sports. In reality, there is no one athlete that is naturally born with this talent be it either gender. Even Michael Jordan wasn't born with beeing good at baskettball since he originally played baseball. If this person played against the worst WNBA player, I wouldn't be surprised to hear him crying foul everytime she stole the ball from him, blocked his shot, or just blocked his every move. Unless he is a former NBA player who kept himself in shape or a player from a recent NCAA Division I team, he wouldn't even stand a chance. Then again, most of those who write naysaying statements on the WNBA, are probably past their primes and haven't been playing baskettball for some time, so this is nothing new.

That is exactly what is wrong with the WNBA. It is based solely on fundamentals. People want to see ankles being broken, elbows being tossed, shots being blocked and BALLS BEING DUNKED. Unfortunately, none of them are capable, and those who are are prohibited by the rules to lay down a sick jam. Since only one woman in the world can dunk they ban it for the whole league? Sorry not everyone can dunk from the free-throw line. Someone should asses Jordan a technical. The worst part is that ESPN picks up the games during the summer. The 1.5 seconds of play I saw while channel surfing caused me throw up. I wish I had been watching a blank screen instead.

In other words, the WNBA needs showboating rather than players who act like they are on a team. Honestly, NBA teams who tend to have players that center around themselves and are ballhogs don't seem to win a lot of NBA championships. Those that win the championships are the ones who play like a team rather than a bunch of individuals who want the glory all for themselves. Not too long ago Lisa Leslie did make the very first dunk in the WNBA, so it does show that they can do it. Let's not forget that when the NBA first started, it was very much like the WNBA is right now and there were probably naysayers back in the 1940, 1950's, and 1960's. The same can be for the MLS, NFL, NHL, and even MLB when they were something new. As for ESPN airing their games, that was a decision made by an agreement with the network executives, not by threats made by David Stern, commissioner of the NBA, and Val Ackerman, first president of the WNBA, that some claim to be. BTW, the airing of the WNBA on ESPN has very little to do with the NBA considering that it predates this by being there since 1997 whereas the NBA didn't come there until 2003 after ending deals with TBS and NBC. ESPN airs numerous things that I don't even consider sport such as the WS of Poker, but I am demanding for that to be off the air compared to those who don't want any channel airing the WNBA.

The league was formed to give women a chance. Women are allowed to play in the NBA; there is no rule against that. What I don’t understand is why men aren’t allowed to play in the WNBA. It is ****ing bullshit. They consider themselves equals, yet can’t play with the men. Women suck at life. Until they can play with the boys, they should go back to what they are good at; cleaning, cooking and sucking ****.

Even though the NBA does allow for women to play there, it's hardly ever done. The only time this happened was back in 1979 when the Indiana Pacers selected Ann Meyers. However, she didn't survive for the next season and was cut by the team, and the NBA never did this again. Why didn't the NBA reopen this stunt more recently rather than launching the WNBA? Sounds like a contradiction here. Why doesn't the NBA allow for female head coaches just like how the WNBA allows for male head coaches, especially since there is no rule against that in the NBA? Nevertheless, this is just another attack at the WNBA with sexist remarks.
