Rich, this is fantasy sports. We follow ficticious stocks and watch statistics and projections.
I don't see myself adding or removing a market sector based on anything other than overall member interest. Undoubtedly, my formulas for the NBA have sucked for a long long time, but dropping the sector entirely is highly unlikely. There are sports people follow and those they don't. Nobody is required to actually follow a sport in order to buy and sell its stocks to play here. However, if the majority of members no longer want to be bothered to even check for those stats, that's a different discussion.

Adding the LPGA would also not be predicated on the removal of a sector. There are 2 problems with adding it. The first, as I just alluded to, is member interest; do enough members have the interest. The second is the availability of stats. Can the site AND its members readily find a consistent source of pertinent stats. It does appear that aspect has improved since the last time I looked into it and you're right, adding the LPGA from the site's standpoint would be little more than IPOing stocks and using existing formulas.
