You are part of the problem. You don’t even know what the article is going to say and you are ready to condemn Coach Mulkey.

Spoiler: it’s about Brittney Griner, then some former players say she was yelling at them at practice, then some people in the Baylor admin say she was hard to work with.

How so? Maybe they promised her facility upgrades after she won multiple national championships, yet they failed to deliver.

Mulkey stood up for Baylor and carried that athletic program on her back after the sexual assault scandals and they turned their back on her as soon as they had a new AD.

Now they live in women’s basketball anonymity. Congrats.

Literally never heard of this person before this thread started.

I'm glad. I much prefer a fearless press free from coercion by those in power over a basketball coach

Edit- Over the feelings of a women's basketball coach. Mulkey appears to believe that she's above criticism

The bragging about general ignorance in this thread is hilarious. “I don’t like a tweet someone made so I’m going to brag about not knowing who a very well-known sports media personality is.”

I think her tweet is/was stupid but people acting she’s a nobody to, in some way, delegitimize what she said is equally as stupid

No, you choose a press that is virtually free to say and print anything they wish with very little repercussions for any false statements/ totally made up stories then hide behind anonymity for the so-called "witnesses" which the vast majority of the time are made up as well...

You’re one of those that think defending yourself against bullshite is holier than thou behavior. How about the childish act of previewing your hit piece before just publishing it - does that not scream garbage journalism to you?

What a weird fricking take. I was merely stating a fact - that before today I had never heard of this person. If you consider this bragging, that's your goofy spin on it.

Nor did I claim my never having heard of her somehow delegitimized her post. It merely means I really don't give a shite about what somebody I have never of has to say on this subject. And I think the idiocy of her post delegitimizes itself.

She refused an interview for 2 years. She was never unti now sent a list of questioms for response. The "reporter" wanted to interview her for some old-fashioned "gotcha joutnalism".

When she didn't take the bait, Zhe wrote up his one-sided story, and said "this what I plan to say, care to respond?"

EXCEPT ZHE REALLY DIDN'T CARE ABOUT GIVING HER A CHANCE TO RESPOND

If that is what is it about, that is absolutely nothing! What will mean a lot more is someone like Alexis Morris who Mulkey kicked off the Baylor team when she was arrested and yet allowed Morris to join the LSU team when Mulkey became coach in Baton Rouge.

Babb has a history of nothing stories. What he went after Kelly for at LSU was taking a huge football salary when professors at the school were supposedly underpaid. Then Babb defended himself when he said that Collis Temple was the one who criticized LSU and Kelly and that he wasn't really the one. Well, if you write the article, yeah you are basically saying it too. If you don't agree with Temple, you don't include that in the article or you say you don't agree with him. Reminds me of the old Trump standby...."they said"...."I've heard"...."many people say", etc.

Didn't you at one point champion the idea Fox news should be banned, especially outside the US?

You had a Jerry Garcia pic in your profile at one point, correct?

Always thought she was pretty hot when I was younger, not sure how she looks now

Not to turn this into a Mark Zuckerberg moment at Harvard but even taking into account she is 53 now, she is no more than a 4 IMO. I can definitely say she has not had her nose done.
