People like that have no idea what capitalism is

If the WNBA actually made money, they could pay Griner whatever they could.
As it stands, the WNBA is a loss leader paid for by the NBA owners and NBA player association out of basketball-related earnings.
Don't bite the hand that feeds nor bitch about being popped overseas for possession of something she should never have had in her bag travelling overseas.

she makes 200-300k a year in the WNBA and I know she's good compared to her peers.
However, if you can't figure out how to live a decent life with a 7 year career making >2mil than you're not getting much sympathy from the mass.

I know I’ve said this many times, sometimes frivolously, but this is the dumbest fricking quote I have ever read. Jim Valvano lookin arse is this dumb too?

225k to play basketball....sign me up
And I'd bet dollars to donuts you'd likely be better than 2/3 of the players already on the rosters------and that's not knowing squat about you and assuming you're a male.

The funniest part about this is she would have been back here weeks ago if this happened under Trump.
Saw a blurb in the ticker how the Wife says the only one that can save her is Biden. Nah, he doesn't have that pull, sorry. Just like Carter couldn't get the hostages out of Iran.
You know who could get her out? Trump. Man, would heads explode if he intervened and got her out of Russian prison. You know Putin would do it just to make Biden look weak.

I mean, she isn't wrong, technically.

She's right. A capitalist society should have no use for the WNBA. And yet here we are having to sit through sports center "highlights" of layups and 20 foot set shots.
