Should Toronto get a WNBA team?

Considering most cities have an NBA and WNBA team, I am wondering if Toronto could support a WNBA team? It would inspire a lot more young women not only in Toronto to play the game of basketball but it would inspire more young women to play the game of basketball here in Canada, am I right or am I wrong y'all?

Dude, you gotta stop posting all of these Toronto centric threads in the Canada Forum. Feel free to post as many as you want here.

Should Toronto plow streets in the winter?
Should Mississauga install a new playground?

Should Toronto create a 14th sports channel focused on itself?

Toronto could troll the ROC by creating English and French language networks called TSN:Toronto and force all cable carriers nationwide to carry them.

Well this discussion is proving highly productive.

I'd say, sure why not, the worst it could do is cut into some of the Leafs coverage.

Why would Toronto want a team in a league that few people care about? I doubt the Raptors would want to keep funneling money in to keep it viable

Should Toronto change its name to Canada City so that the rest of the world can view it as it perceives itself?

Tal Barzilai cares a lot. This is the greatest photo in the history of SSP

My thoughts exactly and his rationale for Toronto getting a WNBA team is very fucking strange because of all the reasons for a city to get a professional sports franchise, encouraging young people to play that sport in that city has got to be one of the last, if not THE last reason to get one. Sports franchises exist mainly because there's a market for that sport in that city and it has virtually nothing to do with encouraging young people to play the sport
