The only professional sports league where a Minnesota team doesn't suck and no one will know about it.
Minnesota Lynx are playing Hotlanta for the championship, game 1 on ESPN.
Lynx defeated the team from the gravel pit (Valley of the Sun) in the Semi-Finals.

I think the WNBA has to pay to be on TV, if they don't; they should.

The NBA negotiates it in the NBA TV deal. That's why ESPN carries a handful of games... it's part-and-parcel with carrying the NBA, you have to have this ratings suck on your air too.
