Message: [QUOTE="1-of-the-6, post: 2068835, member: 7922"] Every year, when my favorite women's college players graduate and go into the WNBA, I vow to follow them. I never do. I wish I could change that, but it probably won't happen. The WNBA has a huge, and unsolvable, dilemma. They play in the summer. They start right up just after all versions of winter basketball have ended. I can't keep my interest going any longer. It's baseball season, I'm a Giants fan, they play almost everyday, and with mlb.com I can watch every game. That's 3.5 - 4 hours of sports, and it's enough. Plus there's golf to be played, etc. I'm sure I'm not alone in this. And they can't move to the winter for two reasons. First, they'd be competing against the already-saturated airwaves, so full of basketball that it's driven me away from all of it except the women's college game. There's the NBA, the men's and women's college games, and for those that are interested, local high school teams. It's crazy. And even if they had no competition, they'd have no players, because they'd all be overseas making much more money. Plus, when I do watch them, I really don't enjoy the games. Too much individual play and way too physical. The only way I'd probably watch is if UCONN had their own WNBA team. [/QUOTE]
