75 years is a very long time.
My prediction isn't particularly clever. It already looks like the WNBA has taken off. Seems obvious women's professional soccer will be the same.
By the end of the century, women's professional sports will be "obviously" a successful business.

And this take is why you never invite an academic into the broadcasting booth. An entire night of "this event doesn't explain anything and much of what you see is random luck" probably would get pretty tedious at some point! 😂

Would really be nice to have someone on who (a) doesnt feel restrained from pushing back fully by their business associations to WNBPA leaders and (b) has never been CEO of a major media organization.
They'll never do it but I salivate at the idea of @wagesofwins.bsky.social being sic'd on him
