Should female athletes playing in less profitable leagues be paid the same as male athletes?

“The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal.”

Channing Crowder is the only one keeping it real..."You don't hunt, you don't eat"....Simple
-
He doesn’t understand how business works. He thinks the lunch lady should make more just cause she’s a nice person
-
"if your not generating money. why do you need to get paid"...thank you!! it aint about sexism its the fact they dont bring in revenue
-
Imagine a CEO thinking his company should flourish simply because it exists...
-
Bruh...12 teams and a 36 game season. How in the world can they ask for the same money?
-
Crowder took his emotions out of it and thought like a logical man. The other two were pandering.

"It's the right thing to do" Nobody's stopping you. Sponsor a female athlete & pay them out of your pocket. This isn't a male vs female "problem". Venus WIlliams earns more than almost all of the men's tennis players because she brings in the money. People pay to watch her play and she reaps the benefits. If you truly want equal pay for female athletes then you need just as many people watching women's sports as they do the men's. It's that simple.

Equality isnt something people really want. They want favoritism.
-
They make more money overseas because the generate more money overseas.... What do you not understand 😂
-
I remember getting free WNBA tickets in the mail and still wouldn’t go!
-
Lmao reggie killed his own point at the end, in reference to them taking a pay cut for ncaa he said “they should hold their own weight” he ain’t even see how he contradicted his self
-
This guy Reggie is all about feelings lol
-
Channing Crowder made the most sound argument for his case. Reggie Wayne's basing his argument off feelings.
-
Giving the wnba more money is like giving employees bonuses for a failing business that loses money
-
The problem with the WNBA is that the players aren’t interested in improving their game... and most come off as very standoffish. Lowering the rim to 9ft would be a great start. Speeding up the game would be another. Altering the uniforms would be another. But the players don’t want to hear it.... so the product continues to fail. How much money did Reggie give to Catchings during her career?
-
Crowder is the only one that made sense
-
This is like someone in the MLS saying they should get paid like Messi
-
So by this logic if I work at McDonald's I should be paid like Gordon Ramsey?
-
The NBA and NFL are genuinely exciting to watch...from the crazy poster dunks to the Hail Mary touchdowns...the WNBA just doesn’t provide that level of entertainment for even the average consumer
