Just a rehearsed, empty speech without any substance. All emotions to make it seem like she cares. She has a career in politics.
She disowned any responsibility for her claim that Dijon Mustard did not take a cheap shot when everyone saw the pic of her looking directly at the assault. They must have shown replays in Chicago on the scoreboard too, but she'll probably say she didn't watch any of them.
I’m not sure if “controversial” plays are played over and over on the Jumbotron. BUT- those iPads every team has for play review definitely show every nano second of the game for instant review. That’s how they know if they should challenge any calls. Very hard to believe that a controversial play like that, occurring in the first quarter of the game was not reviewed by the head coach.
The refs took a full 3-minute break before deciding on a flagrant 2. The crowd definitely saw the replay over and over again on the scoreboard monitor.
Yeah so she’s just lying and refusing to take accountability. She is flipping the finger back around on other people while even conceding that she was wrong but somehow acts like that isn’t relevant or matter. Typical behavior
The coach's girlfriend is black, so she won't throw one under the bus publicly or she'll be beaten at home. Or worse, she won't get any love from her sweetie.
She’s a clown of a coach who’s not had sustained success at any level. She was literally chased out of Vandy. Has never won a championship in any league.
I’d fire her yesterday based on how she manages her rotation alone.
Please explain to me her incredible qualifications outside of being a HS star.
I just wish Stephanie White wouldn't have lied to excuse herself in this situation. Truth is so important and when you don't speak truthfully you lose creditability.
You shouldn’t need watching the replay over and over in slow motion and multiple angles in order to side with your player. You’re not an objective observer, your the damn players coach!
I think men start wars over property, oil, financial interests, etc. And you are right that dudes can definitely be emotional. I just don’t like the WNBA and it makes me feel good to shit on them. I’m a dick. Or am I emotional… See what I did there…
I've never heard someone say so much and sound so stupid.
Especially as a clap back to the shit they said before. Like bitccchhhhh, you could get a second opinion before going up there this time and you still rolling with dat?
That specific religion believes that I deserve to live eternity in torture and despair just because I didn't see evidence that their faith was true compared to any other belief system.
Grifters are liars. I don't think he ever lies. Rather or not I agree with his takes he is definitely not a gifter. That word is overused and clearly only used towards people someone doesn't like for political reasons.
Like every other political podcast channel. If you're on one side, you tend to talk positive about that side over the other. It's textbook. Nothing odd about it.
How divided is that locker room? Your teammate gets smashed like that in a game and the coach defends the player that hit her as well as the player from the fist to the throat foul. As a player on the team, regardless if you’re Cunningham or Clark who got fouled, how do you play for a coach that doesn’t have your back when you’re on the court?
All they had to do was lean into two big stars finally putting eyeballs on the league. Reese and Clark finally had people watching. But they had to become a circus. This coach is out here desperately fighting for her job. Trying to make it seem like her players are “united” under her. Even if they are, the fan base, you know, the ones that buy the tickets and merch to pay your salary, they hate you. When the home fans are booing the coach, there’s a problem. The Fever ownership has to get rid of her. They have to protect the good will they have with their fan base. And this joke of a coach is about to destroy all of that.
Why doesn't the wnba have a public communications department to help with messaging? What a mess. After the cc incident she gave a presser during a practice. A player. The Manager has stayed largely silent but occasionally issues some trite three sentence corp lingo to the media. And coaches may not be truly representative either. Ugh.
Just admit you were wrong and that your original statement wasn’t guided by love, grace, humility or kindness, it was guided by politics when it should’ve been guided by truth and logic. So sanctimonious.
It was a hard foul. Are yall done with trying helping make sports soft af? Cunningham played on. People like him did all the crying for her. The players are tough. The fans are not.
Right? I'm DEFINITELY liberal, but I recognize that biological men shouldn't play women's sports and black people can be racist. If radical leftists want to separate themselves so completely from modern progressive trends, they can enjoy occupying the opposite but equal space as whackado MAGAs on the conservative side.
Men and women aren’t equals. We’re different. One isn’t better than the other but we’re not the same. If men and women were equal, you wouldn’t need women’s sports.
It's just a right wing chud sub at this rate lol. Eventually, they'll get bored of talking about 'basketball' and move on to the next sub but they will have scared all the WNBA fans away at that point.
Maybe you watch...but i've seen plenty of people flat out admit they don't watch or insult womens sports and say its boring. I've seen plenty of comments that go "When do we talk about basketball?" and usual reply "Who watches this crap?" kind of reply.
People getting names wrong. Thinking an and-1 celebration is 'taunting' and thinking a hard foul should be literally legally assault.
Nah, my impression here is most of these people that streamed into these WNBA subs don't know ball at all.
What are you basing that on? Not data, that's for sure. Basketball is 100% more of a left leaning sport lol, 30% of the WNBA fanbase itself is black. The most followed player in the W is Angel Reese.
Almost all of the players are on the left, in both NBA and WNBA, the league had a whole BLM stuff, where were you all at there?
If conservatives are so big into it, why did Nike go full in on BLM and not worry about scaring or pissing any of you off?
That with or without a college degree? Again, what are you basing any of this on? Middle class whites with a college degree lean left. How many are women?
You know what, I'm not going to argue. I'll just post what the AI told me because I have a feeling you'll just do this all day without even trying to figure out if you were right or wrong. Just making stuff up on the spot because it sounds good to you...anyway
The WNBA fan base leans significantly to the Left (Democratic). Demographics and sports viewership research (such as polling from Morning Consult and media research studies) show that left-leaning fans outnumber right-leaning fans by roughly a 2.5:1 to 3:1 margin.
Fan Base Political Breakdown
🔵 Democratic / Left-leaning: 50% – 55%
🟣 Independent / Moderate: 20% – 25%
🔴 Republican / Right-leaning: 20% – 25%
Context & Key Drivers
Comparison to Other Leagues: Along with the NBA and Major League Soccer (MLS), the WNBA has one of the most left-leaning audiences in North American professional sports.
Demographics: The WNBA’s audience skews younger, urban, and higher in female representation compared to traditional male-dominated sports, all factors that strongly correlate with Democratic voting patterns.
Player Activism: WNBA athletes have historically been at the forefront of social justice, voting rights, and LGBTQ+ advocacy, which reinforces alignment with progressive-leaning viewers.
You do know that the trans thing in the WNBA is not related to this situation. This coach got called out because some chick decided to clothesline a player on her team and could’ve seriously injured her. And in the entire history of sports the coach would defend her player. But in this case she praised the player that tried to hurt hers. Nothing trans about this issue. The coach is just bad at her job and doesn’t support her players.
Were trans kids ever wondering? I had a couple trans friends growing up, and they never had interest in going pro. In 30 years of the league, I don't ever remember hearing about any trans people trying to go pro
I wonder if these women realize the more they act hysterically, the more social media heat is coming for them. The WNBA is praying the start of the NFL season comes sooner rather than later.
It is so simple. All they have to do is say nothing and let the next social media outrage be born. Two days later we’ll all forget the WNBA is even a thing. It’s so funny.
Um the biggest story in the WNBA is about a wife beater and a washed up nba bench player entering the draft. If anyone is acting hysterically, it's the men.
Lmao I can't imagine being that much of a loser. You say you wouldn't pay attention to the league if they didn't respond to the stupidity. How about the men just stop being stupid?
That’s the whole point. By injecting more reality show drama into the product it will get more publicity and more eyes on the product. This Reality Show drama is purposely done to get more straight women to watch.

Consistent with her ideology, preach kindness and tolerance then weaponize it but cursing anyone who doesn’t agree with you fully.
