While searching the ESPN website, I found a poll run by the site. This poll was titled, "What would you rather, find $5 on the ground, or see your local Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) team win a championship"? The poll was a telling indicator of what people in America, at least, thought about the WNBA or women's sport in general. 76% of respondents listed finding a $5 note as there preferred answer. Unfortunately, I believe that the way Australians think about women's sport, and more specifically basketball, is all too similar to that of Americans; we simply don't care.
