Among many other things, these women have in most cases finished a four-year college/university education if not a graduate degree. A considerable number of them are also scholastic All-Americans. It is not surprising how well-rounded and well spoken many of them are.
It’s great being a WNBA fan.
Small reminder: Contracts are always, always, always about leverage, more than they're about talent of Player A vs talent of Player B. Sometimes a team really needs someone; sometimes they have to pay them enough to tempt them away; sometimes you're trying to save face (or your job). LEVERAGE. #WNBA
Sounds like one of those rare deals that actually benefits both teams. Curt & Jen are good GMs.
OK, you Wall Street motherfuckers, how are you liking your "TrumpBump" now?
There never was a plan.
It is all a diversion from #Epstein with a side-helping of grift from the complicit Wall Street investor class.
I truly understand the dog-bear-man hierarchy; would that it wasn’t so.
He ramrodded his worst-in-class X-AI into the SpaceX org chart tio disguise its weakness and continue to take advantage of the US government’s privatization of the space program.
So Musk gets corporate welfare in the form of the ridiculous valuation of this company propped up by taxpayer dollars.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is about to sign a voter suppression law.
Super lawyer Marc Elias is ready to file a lawsuit to stop it:
“Florida will be sued.”
🍿
It depends which Heinlein; he contained multitudes.
A lot of them are “on excursion” to the Trump-Epstein war on Iran right now.
Gives new meaning to “the few; the proud; the Marines”.
As in, damned few of them have any reason to be proud right now.
Semper fucked-up, I’d say.
One has to wonder if they will soon give Trump a 🏆 (RFK JR Profile in Incomprehensibilty Award?) for standing up against himself when he has reversed his own positions so many times now.
I pay money right now to watch the Sun in Connecticut. I don’t give a rats ass what happens in Houston.
No Kings in Arlington MA!
I supported your run from Massachusetts & will do it again the next time when you will win. We need your energy & smarts.
Time for the WNBPA to organize the WNBA GM’s. I’m not sure what they’re being paid, but the stress & workload they are under is waaaaay over the top right now.
And we can guarantee that the second-guessing that will be going on all-season long will be epic.
I live in Boston & drive down to Connecticut for a few games every season; was hoping against hope that the Boston offer could see the light of day.
As usual the W drove this one into the ditch. It’s what they do.
Total disconnect between how I feel about the players and how I feel about the league.
Good game Langham Four!
Good game WNBPA!!
F#&$ you, Adam Silver for leaking the terms sheet to Shams when everyone else (primarily women of course, no shame to Doug) was doing the hard work.
Excellent form; core strength is strong in this one too.
I suggest you talk to Celtics’ ownership about “renting” Brad Stevens & his cap team for a month. They’re geniuses.
Would Ms. Ogwumike consider accepting the burden of being the Democratic Party candidate for the presidency in 2028? We/they would be beyond lucky to have her.
When a code-switched racist option is available in this country, it’ll find its electorate.
Please don’t blame labor.
The W‘s proposed NEW salary cap for players per team will be about $5.5 mil.. The players’ proposal comes in under $10 million. That’s for a whole team per SEASON.
It’s just not that much money off the gross.
Pay them.
W; losing “hundreds of millions” doesn’t math.
The latest example of schoolyard logic from this execrable administration: "It's HIS fault; he was going to hit me back!"
#MAGA; protected by the law but not bound by it. The #Epstein class.
Is this what you want, America?
"Always, always, always concentration camps are an end run around the existing legal system. These people that are getting rounded up because whoever’s in power wants to do something that they can’t do using the letter of the law..."

Good for Canada; no moping around about this failed, toxic relationship.
Time to rebuild on a more suitable foundation.
The Trump administration is preparing to rescind the EPA’s 2009 “endangerment finding,” the legal basis for regulating greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act.
The move would significantly roll back federal climate rules and is expected to face legal challenges.
Celebrating the power, progress, and possibility of girls and women in sports today and always 🧡
Happy National Girls and Women in Sports Day!
