USA vs France men's Olympic basketball final was the most watched basketball game on US TV in over 5 years.

Aren't you that autistic guy that only ever posts list that nobody gives a shit about?
 
Just ahead of the 2024 NCAA Women's Final?

Lol. canfather threads are the best.

I'm glad so many people watched Chef cook and put France to bed.

 
Hopefully this sparks more interest in international basketball. Country vs country is fun as hell.

Baseball is shit but I wouldn't mind if they started caring more about the world championships or whatever.
 
Update: she did outsell Dallas Cowboys for a week by a huge margin but not for a year.

Caitlin Clark got that Taylor Swift effect as

"Clark (No. 1) and Reese (No. 2) have the league's top-two selling jerseys this year, part of a 1,000% increase in player-specific merchandise sales, according to Fanatics. It's the latest proof of the immediate impact Clark and Reese have made, on the court and on the bottom line of basketball."

She powering professional woman's basketball like no single woman's player in the history of WNBA.

Yeah, viewership was up a whopping 21%.

Of course, +21% more people watching than nobody watching is sort of a philosophical question of abstract math.

You want to keep playing this game OK. We will see overall numbers next year but it's positive signs. 21% percent is likely overall an hockey, soccer would love that level of bounce.

"2.1m watched the Indiana Fever's loss to the Minnesota Lynx on ESPN, which was its largest WNBA audience ever. Caitlin Clark's regular season debut for the Indiana Fever averaged 2.12 million viewers on ESPN2, making it the most-watched Women's Basketball Association (WNBA) game in 23 years"

They're still losing money. I don't know why they keep trying to make women's basketball a thing. Nobody cares.
 
WNBA is up, for now, because although it's a shit product the corporate board rooms are always looking to increase their profits and are really giving women's NBA a push.

But it's like DeBeers diamond jewelry company was looking to improve profits. The industry first came up with like the 3 months salary bullshit, then after tried to do make a dual-diamond ring catch on with a selling point of "One diamond for the love of your life, the other to show she's also your best friend". It was complete crap and eventually flopped.

WNBA pushing hype with the mean girl dramas and all hoping they can make a real market out of the game, and sports shows seem like they're getting orders to talk about it, but I don't think it's gonna work. It just doens't translate well - the athleticism and lack of dunking and mountains of missed shots that men make look so easy.

You can also tell ESPN tried hard sticking in WNBA players into their top 100 athletes from beyond the 2000's. I was mentioning on different media how laughable it is they have some no-name WNBA player ahead of Zinedine Zidane on their list; which is just a joke the world over.

The stupidest thing about those ESPN lists is they repeatedly use "21st century" and "since 2000" interchangably, when the 21st century began in 2001.

I don't think there's anything more embarrassing than pretending to be black on a karate forum.

my name is Afro banana bro, shitloads of black folks aren’t buying the Angel Reese shit.

Lol.

My wife is black and has an enormous family. I spend a lot of time in the hood visiting many of them
lol @ a white southern European Latina girl being brown. She is the colonizer here (Spanish). These kids will be white af. She’s hot though.

Shit I’m more ethnic than her and my wife is black and our kids are fairly light with reddish hair.

Chin up, son.
