    Say what?

    Exactly. The issue is dumb. It's a theoretical problem that isn't actually happening at all in professional sports. In non professional competitive sports, some people want to accommodate for the outliers of kids who actually have gender dysmorphia and maybe have transitioned at a young age...

    Say what?

    Watch any random WNBA game and the inconsistency within the game is mind boggling. She's not wrong that the refs need to get better. That said, it's entirely absurd that she invoked race into the discussion. 100% was a flagrant 1 at least and she should own it. Had she not gone right up to...

    Adam Silver stepped in to clean up WNBA’s Caitlin Clark mess with Cathy Engelbert under fire

    I think you nailed it. Fairly good product now with bad leadership. Agree on Paige as well.

    Adam Silver stepped in to clean up WNBA’s Caitlin Clark mess with Cathy Engelbert under fire

    Could be because of her injuries but she just doesn't seem like she is quick enough one on one. Teams have realized that they can exploit that and have been attacking her. She is fouling more this year in less minutes per game. She's still smart and understands angles and where the ball is going...

    Adam Silver stepped in to clean up WNBA’s Caitlin Clark mess with Cathy Engelbert under fire

    Seems to me that the league likes her a lot more than Caitlin. Paige played with a lot of black players and is gay. Caitlin played with a lot of white players and is straight. Caitlin is more popular but Paige is the better player, so that probably adds to the jealousy around the league.

    Adam Silver stepped in to clean up WNBA’s Caitlin Clark mess with Cathy Engelbert under fire

    It's tough since Caitlin is so special in her court vision and shooting range, that people built her up that she will be the best player that the W has ever seen but the rest of her game is lacking so it's natural to wonder why she gets more attention than any other player. If I were a GM...

    Adam Silver stepped in to clean up WNBA’s Caitlin Clark mess with Cathy Engelbert under fire

    I enjoyed watching Bird and DT in college so tuned into the WNBA when they started playing but the level of play was honestly just so bad, it was hard to watch. It's much better now so I do enjoy watching here and there.

    Adam Silver stepped in to clean up WNBA’s Caitlin Clark mess with Cathy Engelbert under fire

    Caitlin is incredible offensively but is a bad defender. She does not have the speed to defend most of the guards in the league. She gets beat and fouls opposing players consistently and every other coach has figured that out and they attack her when she is on the floor. She complains way too...

    My new 2026-27 Big East projections

    Seriously. You'd have to spend hours of research just to come with an educated guess at this point. In my opinion, this years roster is better on paper than last years roster. I just have no idea about the other teams in the league to guess if they will be the same or better than they were.

    53 years!!!

    Those last few minutes was just a masterclass from Brunson. Castle was picking him up at half court and bothering him the entire game. On one play, Brunson saw it coming, hesitated and then just blew by him. Then putting Wemby on his back, hesitating and then diving ahead of Wemby's block...

    Knicks in Six

    I was thinking the league might have to give a retroactive flagrant against Wemby, and he would have been suspended for game 6 and everyone would have called it tainted if the Knicks won the series. Thankfully Brunson just carried the team and closed it out. I thought OG was MVP going into the...

    Knicks in Six

    You might prefer that, but that’s not the rule. Face guard box out is legal as long as you don’t move. It’s a foul of you move to try and block their path. That’s not what happened. Brunson knew the path and Castle ran through it. Clearly a foul on castle and was close to being upgraded
