Wow, this is what it takes to get women’s basketball on ST after not one mention during the WNBA Finals.

How ’bout taking that pathetic idea from the backburner to the garbage disposal!

Look how ugly/cheap/retarted those woman’s jerseys look on the pic above! I don’t even know what team they are. Worst idea ever! I could care less how much money it brings in, have a little intregity and preserve the traditions of the the game instead of selling out for a quick buck.

While I don’t agree with it completely , it may be a good one for teams, financially. It helps them with business. In this situation, they can make money and it won’t affect our wallets. Each team is a business, whether we like it or not. The problem I have with it is that it takes away from the fact that the majority of the fanbase of a team is from the city that the team calls home and they want to root for the jersey which represents each city. For example, Knicks fans want to root for New York and the Knicks. They don’t want to root for Geico or Taco Bell. If you’re going to do it, find a way not to make it obnoxious and overdone.

The idea isn’t pathetic. It just doesn’t feel right and I agree. We’re just not used to it. I look at Barcelona football club or any other soccer team and it looks just fine and it brings in boatloads of money. Many nba teams complain of a lack of revenue so it’s something that’s gotta be discussed. Trust that if the nba had ads on unis 20 years ago.. We would be totally fine with it now.

Advertising on uniforms is pathetic.

Why not just make the players get ad tattoos as well?

The league seems to be trying to do all it can to drive fans away with these kinds of moves…
