Why on god's green earth is this in the NBA topics? The WNBA is awful. Shouldn't this be under "Other Sports".

If you're not interested, don't read it. It's not as if the title of the thread is somehow misstating what's being discussed here.

It's easy enough to just avoid the conversation -- you're not obligated to stop by just to show off your nonsensical chauvanism.

Hey d-bag, before you type... actually make some sense. What did I say that made no sense? It made perfect sense. This topic should be in Other Sports, and really... even there it has no place. Women's basketball is a joke and always has been. I will ball on anybody in the WNBA. Shit's a joke, they miss layups repeatedly. It's like going to watch a CYO basketball game.

If you don't like the topic, don't read it. Appointing yourself Forum Police is really unnecessary -- if Kori or LJ thinks that this topic is in the wrong forum, it will be moved. If you don't like the topic, don't open the thread. It's really very simple.

That you're a miserable sexist doesn't mean that others shouldn't be allowed to discuss what they wish to in this forum.

Well, we found E20's retirement troll.
