And Big Al wears glasses with style!

I think Commander Sloot has a better vibe to it 🤣

She clearly thinks so…ick

And BG 16 away from the blocks record

Such a great documentary

I’m so impatient for the season to start!

I’m so sad Leite is gone. I love her!

That can’t afford her with the Big 3 plus Laney-Hamilton

So incredibly disappointing.

I’m such a huge fan of Steph White

I know some fans are not down with a rebuild around a young core. But I am 100% here for it. Malonga, Fam, Flau’jae and Horston are going to be fun to watch. I’m also psyched to see what Raman brings to the table as a head coach.

Looks so good on her! Stoked that she is a Storm!!!

They built and monetized a brand based on their coupledom. But right now I just feel for them. I’m especially alarmed at all the hateful, homophonic posts directed at Megan. She has been such a courageous social activist

Sandy is coaching the Tempo now!

Have you been to Arizona?

I knew it when Megan predicted that Vanderbilt would win the NCAA Championship. You can’t go against UCONN and stay in the chat.

And they can’t even hide out together to wait out the drama…that’s a layer of hurt in itself. I know they are both wildly popular but I hope their key people are solidly there for them. Would be a bad time to be alone in a hotel room staring at the wall…

😭

You were made for this, Derek Guy!!!

These are the questions that need to be asked of athletes who engage in domestic violence. Because they’ve done harm. I feel Dallas is paying attention to and trying to get out in front of the media attention and social media discourse that is so harmful to women athletes.

The refusal to recognize the violence in heteropatriarchy requires attributing domestic violence to mental illness. But its ‘normal’

Your excellent boundaries are inspiring!

Dudes, no…

I’m very sad about this because they obviously had huge love between them for so long. And they’re iconic in terms of queer visibility and pride, in Seattle and beyond. I’ve kind of been fearing this as Sue Bird has taken on the equivalent of 5 full time jobs. Tough transition for any couple. 😭

This is so hateful.

“In many shamanic societies, if you came to a shaman or medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited, or depressed, they would ask one of four questions. When did you stop dancing? When did you stop singing? When did you stop being enchanted by stories? When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence? Where we have stopped dancing, singing, being enchanted by stories, or finding comfort in silence is where we have experienced the loss of soul. Dancing, singing, storytelling, and silence are the four universal healing salves.” Angeles Arrien in the forward to Gabrielle Roth. Maps to Ecstasy: The Healing Power of Movement. (New World Library, 1998.) pages xv-xvi

Following on Dr. Lorgia's post, Angeles Arrien writes:

It goes up each year

Sue Bird now has like 6 full time jobs and doesn’t have time to be unhappy. I imagine the change in her status and responsibilities was a factor. I feel sad for them because it was obvious they shared a really deep love for a long time.

Raven Johnson! Kelsey Mitchell is probably glad to be on the same team.

On the Other Hand, the NBA’s Gender-Wage Gap Persists It has been about a month since representatives of the WNBPA and representatives of the NBA (i.e.

There have been many articles celebrating the increase in pay for WNBA players.

So I decided (because I am an economist!) to remind everyone that 8 years ago 20% of gross revenue was an outrage.

And the gender-wage gap in the NBA still persists.
