rednikkiJust read the Globe’s coverage on the attempt to move the WNBA Sun from rural Connecticut to Boston. The article points out that the team currently has a small arena, no dedicated training facility (they have to share with summer camps!), and the Mohegan tribe REALLY wants to sell. The tribe says they cannot afford the team and can’t support their development. The team sells out the TD Garden (19,580 seats) when they visit, and they would get a dedicated training facility.
So why is the league opposed to the sale? Why are they saying that Boston, famously one of the most fanatical sports towns on Earth, has to wait until the mid-2030s for an expansion team? Why are they saying teams can’t move when the Sun moved from Orlando to rural Connecticut? Wouldn’t moving the team support WNBA growth and increased fandom?
I had to read the freaking COMMENTS on the article to learn that, if the tribe sells the team, the tribe gets the money. If it’s an expansionist team, then the league gets all the money. So they would rather kill the team and theoretically get expansion cash in 2033 then have it move.
This is the kind of greed that kills the golden goose before it can start laying the big eggs. #WNBA #ConnecticutSun
