Message: [QUOTE="vtcwbuff, post: 2815915, member: 1197"] If you want to point a gender finger as the reason the WNBA is struggling then point it at women. All those women who don't attend games, who don't watch on TV and couldn't care less about supporting a women's pro league. If women were sports fans at anywhere near the level that men are then women's pro leagues would be successful. I have been a UConn WCBB fan for many years. So has my wife. My daughter attended UConn for 7 years. My wife is a fan only because I forced her interest. I call her "fan lite." Both my kids are UConn grads and big UConn basketball fans - of the men. If I mention the women's game to either of them I get a polite "Yeah they're pretty good this year" and then their eyes glaze over, just like every other sports fan I know. [/QUOTE]
