I admit I don't pay much attention to women's sports (not like I have to go out of my way to avoid coverage though) but it still struck me that there was a very large pay difference between NBA and WNBA players(it's sticking with me). While I guess this can be attributed to minimal attendance and therefore minimal income, I still thought it strange that the salary cap for a WNBA TEAM is lower than the minimum salary for a 3 year NBA player.(http://personalmoneystore.com/moneyblog/2009/04/09/wnba-salaries-fall-short-male-counterparts/) It baffled me that the disparity is that large, but I guess that may lie in the fact that the income disparity for the leagues is so big.
