That I don’t know. I feel like it was exclusively on ESPN… which I hate when they do that.

Why would you ever fumble me? That trips me out every time I think of it. But my goodness. To be on the right side. 🤭

I’m honestly hoping for this. We will be okay while they get it figured out.

The #WNBAPA should seriously be researching a new league, totally independent of the #NBA, as these #WNBA CBA negotiations proceed, with nearly all veterans as free agents at this time.

What I miss ?

Cathy is the current face but the true villains of the WNBA are:

Adam Silver
NBA and owners
2022 investment group
Allen & Company LLC
unnamed sources (about losses)
Cathy Engelbert

2022 - Cathy nem gave up 16% of the league for $75M to invest grp

2024 - Valks & Fire pay $50M expansion fees

I can’t wait for AR to leave Chicago so I can give them the villainous treatment they deserve. #wnba

Yae 💡 @mostbrilliant.bsky.social · 3h

Getting more and more likely the Portland Fire will be a villainous team for me. If they get Heterodalgo, it’s a wrap. #wnba

This is a question I have had for a couple seasons now. Last year, I would just check the schedule everyday on ESPN’s app. But I deleted all Disney from my devices. Let me know if you find something and I will do the same. 😩😩

I had to stop fucking with Size? for that same reason. I was one and done. Coming from overseas in a bag? Box was in SHAMBLES.

Yae 💡 @mostbrilliant.bsky.social · 3h

Where did they even find this guy???? I need to know the connections.

Yae 💡 @mostbrilliant.bsky.social · 3h

Portland had already been lollygagging around about— well everything it take to expand a franchise. I have low expectations, if I can even call it that.

I wish. 7.5M is already comfy enough. They almost always start at 8M. And I’m bout done with them, sending my shoes in a shipping bag 🤬🤬🤬

Yae 💡 @mostbrilliant.bsky.social · 4h

Nawl, never mind cuz y’all like to tussle.

Yae 💡 @mostbrilliant.bsky.social · 4h

Lemme ask y’all something. And don’t get triggered, cuz I just want to discuss. Was Sue Bird ever regarded as or proven to the best player in the league in any of her seasons? I have a follow up question too. #wnba

I just threw up inside my stomach. 😕

A Y chromosome and lack of melanin can just about get you anything you want in this world without qualification, but ESPECIALLY a head coaching job in the WNBA. Tuh!

Grant Lorrell @grantlorrell.bsky.social · 6h

A person whose coaching resume consists of just 4 months as an assistant coach, and a development program that he dubbed "Transform Basketball" (yuck) does not exactly inspire confidence.

Do I want to fuck with these rare air 11s? They look a little too patriotic for my taste, but I like that leather. #snkrsky #sneakersky

This is so damn toxic. Adam Silver will pay for his crimes.

Peep the lanugage from Monty McCutchen about WNBA ref Jenna Reneau's move to the NBA:

"Congratulations to Biniam, Pat and Jenna on their advancement to our NBA staff.... All three officials have worked diligently to reach the pinnacle of their profession."
