I kinda agree with you, but then you lost me at actually watching the WNBA.
That’s fair!! What's even worse is I've been watching the WNBA for I'd say about 11 years or so(but I'll explain why). Tbh basketball is repetitive and boring for me now at any level (maybe minus a good NCAA tournament game).
I like to watch MLB baseball and college football for ball sports. I watch the NFL sometimes (my wife watches more than me) and she also loves college football as much as I do (maybe more). My wife watches baseball with me, so it’s a trade off for me watching basketball with her. She also likes gambling on games (parlays) which I don't bother with.
She likes NBA/WNBA/ women’s college so I’ll watch with her. I used to be a bigger pro basketball fan but can care less now. I probably wouldn’t watch either on my own (maybe playoffs here and there). MMA and boxing I’m usually on my own and just watching alone from a device, or screen sharing with a buddy of mine who likes it.
The good thing about the WNBA is it’s summer (like baseball) so we’re usually outside watching on a projector with air play. Being outside, drinking a beer and fiddling with devices makes it easy to get through.
Last night I was watching the Yankees game and then Dodgers on my tablet. We had WNBA outside on the projector, I was also playing roblox battlegrounds on my phone with my son next to me and posting on here while drinking a dunkel lager.
I'm not watching basketball because of Clark or Reese bullshit. We been watching all along because of my wife. I will say they and Juju made me more interested in the college games in recent years (made them more watchable) with the skill level and backstories.
When it comes to Clark vs Reese I'm just calling it like I see it. Lately Clark is on fire and Reese outside of rebounding is pretty damn bad. But Clark was always ahead by a large margin college or pros, the ROY race was never what some media tried to spark. Now Reese is at a point where even the crazies are struggling to make an argument for her (she's been consistently garbage on offense and her team is doing terrible).
Since the forced double double streak they been consistently losing 2/3 games with or without Carter. Carter is frustrated just like the players who wanted to be released.
