Listen, I don’t know what the WNBA is doing, but it’s past time they brought a team to Philadelphia. I mean, what are we even talking about here? Philly is one of the greatest sports cities in the country. Passionate fanbase, historic basketball culture, and a city that eats, sleeps, and breathes hoops. And yet, somehow—someway—Oakland, a city that can’t even hold on to its professional sports teams, is getting a squad before us? Blasphemous.
I don’t want to hear about markets or logistics. Philly is the market. Have you seen what the city does for basketball? High school, college, pro—it doesn’t matter. The city supports it. From Dawn Staley’s legacy to the legendary battles in the Big 5 to the Sixers’ rollercoaster of an existence, basketball in Philly isn’t just a game—it’s a culture.
So, WNBA, let’s stop playing. Expansion is coming. You want a city that will rally behind a team? A city that will show out every night? A city that will turn that squad into an institution? Philly’s sitting right here, waiting.
Run the paperwork. Make the calls. Fix the mistake.
WNBA to Philly. Now.
