What city are the Spurs in?
grc | I can understand not watching basketball altogether or even watching both, I wont bust your chops too much for investing your time and money into a joke of a league but to only watch womens? I have to say I am speechless I never thought a man would openly admit this...its like saying you went and saw Sex and the City 7 times already but have never seen the Godfather or Rambo or Scarface.[/quote]
Just cause I watch the WNBA doesnt mean that womens sports is all I watch. Like I said before, I felt the same way other did till I watched it, now Im hooked. I think its waaay better than the MNBA!
I also race Motocross which is primarily a mens sport. I have won many race and championships in the B and C classes and its an extremely tough sport! But I also watch the the pro WMA (Womens Motocross Association) and these girls rip! I got mad respect for them! A few of the top chicks would even smoke me.

It would have been better if you targeted a NBA team that doesn't promote teamwork, instead you just sound foolish. The Spurs are true basketball. Just remember, the WNBA is still just a tax write-off for the NBA and it makes them look good. Even the NBADL is better ball and makes more money.

You are right though, I shouldnt be singling out an MNBA team in the argument. Sorry, but I just dont like the Spurs. I did back when Dave and Sean Elliot were there, but lately they have become the team everyone wants to hate and rightfully so with that crap they pull. They dont deserve championships, instead they deserve Academy Awards

Can't isolate that one totally on the Spurs. The Spurs need to get a little more ahtletic and younger...but flopping is not their problem. If the Lakers win 3 out of the next 5 championships...people will hate them too...and it won't have anything to do with flopping.
Back to the WNBA...that Candace Parker can flop on me anytime.

The spurs are not the greatest talent wise but are very technically sound.
A WNBA team vs an NBA team would be like watching the first round of March madness. the smaller schools usualy play a better team game and every now and the they take down the more talented big schools.

I mean, I could go on and on about the negative things to say about the Eagles, but the laundry list off all thier disappointments and garbage are waaaay too long and would be a neverending post  | Well maybe you should this way you'll finally have more posts than stars given out

grc | i hope you're saying that just for the sake of arguing because that is ridiculous. first off dunking is a major part of the game. and if you are going to say that women are more fundamentally sound... there are plenty of men who are fundamentally sound but they dont have to be because they can jump 40 inches. plus they play a much more physical game. women also shoot from like a high school three point line... if you implemented that into the game you could have some of the highest scoring games in NBA history because most players can shoot from that range. ive pretty much stayed out of this discussion up to this point but i think it is insane that people are actually arguing that wnba is a better game.
