idk. does it matter ?

idk, Larry said she's part of the core of Chicago superstars along with Bedard and Caleb

Do they know Caitlin Clark doesn't play for the Sky? She's the interest in the league. There is no interest in the WNBA generally.

I think that's the case with Angel Reese, but Caitlin Clark is allowed to just be good at basketball and the fact that she's not a wildebeest is just sort of a side benefit.

am I the only one to notice that the thrust of their marketing is to make this year's draft class conventionally sexy as defined by the male patriarchy.

Baby, take off your shorts
Real slow
And take off your Reeboks
I'll take off your Reeboks
Baby, take off your jersey
Yes, yes, yes
You can leave your compression sleeve on

We now have WNBA mults. What is the world coming to???

I'll let someone else do the digging but my favorite Rick Rude promo is one he did in WCW where Schiavone goes to interview Rude at his house and Rude says something like "you're always welcome to visit as long as you call ahead to let me know." I don't remember anything else from it, just our favorite gyrating super-villain defaulting back to a friendly but boundary-setting Minnesotan.

EDIT: ah what the hell I had to watch it again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRR0uDlEejk

Yeah, WCW before Hogan is weird to look back on because for all the winners-write-the-history propaganda about how WCW didn't know what they had in Steve Austin and Mick Foley, the WWF never saw what they should have in Rick Rude, and would completely squander Ron Simmons and Vader. Someone should be beaten with a pool noodle for the silver-spray-painted-foam-helmeted "Faarooq Asad." But then again early '90s WCW was a much clearer junior partner, too.

is all that only because he does a 15 minute show with them on tuesdays?.

The way they keep hyping up the interest, we seem to be on the verge of a major breakthrough.[/quote]

It's like the shift in the LPGA from a few decades ago when it was dominated by "female high school gym teacher" types. WNBA marketing recognized it had a demographic problem and has either overtly or covertly run from its past character.

but, in doing so, they are just perpetuating[/quote][/quote]
