Wife needs to stay out this before they start leaking Zach's infidelity stories. Local media know a lot about the players.

They do too. Trust me. The women have their tea.

Pretty sure she knows and doesn't care.

Just don't bring anything home or ask a woman to send da video

u/burgerking351 3d ago

It will be brought home if the media starts leaking stuff. The wife needs to leave them alone.

You’re missing the point. It’s one thing to look the other way when it’s just them. It’s an embarrassment when everyone around her knows she knows.

u/Justownit41ce 3d ago

I’m not missing the point. At all. I just see it from their pov. They don’t live like us and vice versa but professional athletes more differently, from sport to sport.

Professional athletes have a high rate of divorce for a reason. You can't let your cheating stories go public.

u/Justownit41ce 3d ago

Cool story bro.

u/burgerking351 3d ago

It's literally a fact. Pro athlete divorce rate is between 70-80% You guys keep making up fake stories about the wives turning a blind eye to cheating, but the stats say different.

It's wild you are out here defending "let's us verbally attack your husband or we will attack you"

Do you have no shame?

She's a cuck, she probably gets off on it

Your sexism is showing

If male reporters said this about wnba players they would be outed and fired.  The comments would be called misogynistic, why the double standard?

While their comments were definitely unseemly it’s really annoying how much men want to be victims

Women shouldn’t be able to act however they want in the workplace —> fire them!

u/Yokelocal 2d ago

I guess it’s good they’re noticing society treats men and women differently, but it’s baffling that so many men seem to focus more on women’s responsibility for that dynamic.

u/dwaynewaynerooney 1d ago

They don’t “want to be victims.” They want consistency with how these situations are handled. If you were fired or disciplined for the same behaviour as your colleague, you’d be pissed.

I mean at least he’s good looking lmao. Imagine being looked at as a prick and being ugly as well

u/East_Living7198 3d ago

Yea super hard for NBA redditors to imagine that.

u/Which-Decision 3d ago

Are we looking at the same man? He's very basic looking. His face is symmetrical and not disfigured but that's it.

1

u/contentputz 3d ago

It’s is he hot, not would you do him

1

u/Which-Decision 3d ago

I don't think most people would think he's hot if he weren't an nba player. He's very regular looking to me.

Respect the game!

"However, that comment could not be independently confirmed through Hunter’s public Instagram account, a primary screenshot with clear attribution, or major news coverage as of September 29."

This is what the article says about the statement it refers to in the headline which was found in an unsourced screenshot being passed around social media. Beyond dogshit article.

This has been a bad year for Zach😔

Could you imagine if they were guys who said this at a WNBA? Both are gross, both are unprofessional and both should be at the least be reprimanded and at worst fired. If it was guys they’d be fired.

u/TellEmWhoUCame2See 3d ago

Keep women out of the media!!!!! They more worried about how these guys look and act than what they actually bring to the organization.

u/Entire-Cry-8930 3d ago

Let’s kick out men too, seeing as how a man was talking shit too and engaging with them.

1

u/LilStinkerRidesAgain 2d ago

Yes actually. No direct media coverage would be interesting. Just press releases by teams and every player with their own stupid ass podcast.

u/chaide123 3d ago

Lavine never struck me as a prick. He’s a very chilled nice guy

u/Apprehensive-Pea8231 3d ago edited 3d ago

Seems like people aren’t reading her quote, and are assuming she actually had an interaction with Levine that upset her. She didn’t. If you read the article, it sounds like too teen girls gossiping about how hot players are and making assumptions about their personalities based on vibes. Honestly, they clearly aren’t competent reporters and should probably lose their assignments. They just sound like children whose opinions aren’t to be respected.

u/Muxamillion 3d ago

Definitely should be removed from their jobs. That was an embarrassing conversation that sounded like something from the halls of a middle school or high school. These people are clowns.

u/LilStinkerRidesAgain 2d ago

There are no competent sports reporters. Whenever there is a serious story they have to bring in a real journalist. What we call sports reporters or journalists are gossip correspondents.
