It’s terrible what it does, but one thing they sell more than anything is controversy, and when it comes with deep-seated emotions of conflict, and it’s put into the middle of gladiator ring with a timer, than they ratchet up the tension so high it works. The pursuit of money adjusts to the times. They are looking for those big advertising dollars and to fill those arena seats. I think they crunched the numbers and know that black Americans like yourself are speaking out against racism, and this controversy, though real and embedded with historical nastiness, will draw attention. It’s like the first time that black Americans will show up to cheer on seeing Clark get her butt kicked, with people cheering against her. Think of it, she plays against more teams than she plays for (one of course). That means if they can get you down the road to that stadium to see get trounced, to see the hyped up “racial” action, then they can fill more seats and make new fans. It’s very hard to get people to switch from Coke to Pepsi, and you need a driving controversy, star and force. The WNBA found that controversy now because of the heated racial environment Mr. Orangehead put the country in. So perhaps the flailing league did it, finding something to grab onto in the over-saturated world of sports. It got your attention, as you said you’re watching more games. Sad yes, profitable, also yes.
