It's a question of when. The ABL will be around until the WNBA writes the check. The WNBA should write the check now. It's going to be a war of money. Still, if Charles Darwin is right and the strongest survive, then the talent-rich ABL will be around much longer than the naysayers and anyone in the WNBA anticipates.
Quality always wins out over hype in sports.
If the WNBA continues to play lackluster ball, as many critics have said, fans will walk away from the game and turn off their television sets. We are building up the ABL the old fashioned way. We're earning it. We have to be correct in every decision we make. Every decision has to be right on the money.
