Message: [QUOTE="amb3096, post: 4308669, member: 11629"] It's less that I'm negative towards the WNBA, but I am negative towards the current players' attitudes. I remember when the league first started, they had an influx of players coming from the overseas clubs who were thrilled for the opportunity to play at home in front of family and friends. Now, you have a bunch of self-appointed prima donnas saying, "Where's my money?!? Must be nice...grumble grumble". If that's their attitude, then how are they supposed to get fans? I don't think it's a realistic idea to ask super rich people/corporations to invest in a team that will lose money year over year and vilify you for not paying the players millions of dollars. Even decisions to make what are "bad investments" on the surface could be worth it if there's a downstream impact that improves revenue. In the absence of this, it's not an investment; it's a charitable donation. But I like the idea of starting with the list that [USER=12051]@UHF[/USER] shared above. Who would be better investors than successful wealthy women? [/QUOTE]
