#2 The heck with sports. I tossed every sports-related shirt and paraphernalia long ago, and don't even by their crap when it's 90% off.

#3 This was always the next step. Taking a knee has gone vanilla, so the disrespect must be ratcheted up.

#7 It's difficult to imagine the WNBA getting less popular than it already is, but there it is - great job, folks!

Prediction - there won't be a WNBA in two years.

#10 Well, the WNBA is kind of "judgement proof". No one pays attention already so you can't boycott them effectively.

#11 /\ Good point. Rather difficult to boycott something to which few pay any attention anyway.

#12 So the next time any US team plays China in an international match, are the US players going to stand for the Chinese anthem and walk out for the Star-Spangled Banner?

#13 NBA surely might.

#15 If team management condones this behavior and the league condones it, then it's a lost cause. I'm already waiting for the NFL to start so I can not watch it.

#16 Who exactly is surprised?

#18 John Cardillo on Twitter

Average NBA salary: $7,700,000

Average WNBA salary: $116,000

These are the people lecturing us on equality.
