I have a one year old daughter and I cannot love her more than I already do.

But that has not changed my mind one bit about the WNBA and the absurdity of paying them more due to “equality”.

Get your degree, Baby Girl Boosie.

The quality of the league is going to get so much better once those 6’7” trans athletes who were half way decent on their D2 men’s squads come out of the woodwork.

It's all good. When Biden gets his way and we have a league of Juwanna Mann's playing, WNBA gonna get lit!

To be fair, bloopers and bad plays happen in the NBA too. But you create resentment and ridicule when you try to, for purely SJW and virtue signaling purposes, jam the farce down the public's throat that women professional players can adequately compete with men and have the same level of skill...when they clearly don't.

That there are avenues for girls/women to play sports in this country, even professionally, is a GREAT thing. But stop trying to force everyone to believe the skill level between women's professional sports and men's professional sports is the same. That's where the ridicule comes from...not baseless sexism

I have two daughters. If one grows up to be an Olympic gold medalist in the 100m dash I will be BEAMING with pride. But I'm not so emotional or irrational to think even then she could compete with male professional track athletes

Well now, men can get their dicks cut off, call themselves women, and blow past your daughter in the 100m dash.

Can't lie, I originally was watching the video, and I was prepared to make a devil's advocate that Shaqtin a Fool is a thing. There are weekly lowlight reels of NBA players doing those same sort of things.

But in the video when it said that half of the clips were all taken from one game, I cant even pretend to try and defend them.

Not just a game. A game showcasing the best the league has to offer.

And in college, like 3 teams own the entirety of the 1.5% so you’ll see UConn beat the #10 team by 60 points.


College football has gotten just as bad.

They was already struggling. Then they walked off the court during the National Anthem. Their fan base is middle class dads and daughter..... not sure that was the best move

I’m not going to claim to be some big WNBA fan I don’t watch it at all.
But it’s pretty easy to go around and compile a bunch of shite plays to make someone/something look bad. I bet you could make a similar video for the NBA

The WNBA bloopers are mostly when the women don't know their limitations by trying to pull off male moves like a reverse layup, or a legit jump shot or sometimes just a regular layup or the ever perplexing under the basket putback.

A decent high school team like North-Side or even a great program like Peabody would absolutely annihilate any WNBA team.

Half the clips were from one game. A game that features their best players

The third quarter of the “all-star game” was brutal.

Claims she can beat demarcus cousins in 1o1 btw


this should be set up btw. Even after Cousins numerous injuries he's still playing really well in the NBA. Dude would fricking destroy her.

But at the same time I get it, what are these girls going to come out and say? We suck, go watch something else? Gotta promote the brand you work for even if you don't truly believe what you're saying. Let the consumer decide but as a worker you gotta hype it up as much as you can.

I’d pay good money to see Demarcus Cousins play in a WNBA game and take it seriously. It would be hilarious.
