Staley said what she did about transgender people playing women's sports.
If people want to question Brittney Griner's gender and assume things, why aren't they questioning and assuming Ashlyn Watkins', or Kamilla Cardoso's, or Adel Tac's, or MiLaysia Fulwiley's, or Raven Johnson's, or Khadijah Sessions', or...... gender?
Because Griner complained about 'Murica and the others didn't yet.

Eye roll (about the 'Murica part). Nobody deserving of being taken seriously has accused Griner of being a biological man.


Also, biological men shouldn't play women's sports. We are a big enough country that we should have transgender sports leagues if there is that big of a demand for participating in sports.

Let's let the MAGA's win and just have the "Testosterone over this level" group and the "Testosterone under this level" group. And get rid of any playing of any national anthems before sporting events. I am sick of listening to Trump humpers whine about what people do or do not do when the national anthem is played at a sporting event. Stand like this, not that. Put your hand here, not there. Just fucking eliminate it, it is wholly unnecessary to hold that sporting event.

$338K over 4 years is Clark’s rookie deal

it’s just silly how inflated the men’s games are…$55mil was Wemby’s rookie deal

i’m not saying they should be the same - they obviously shouldn’t
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

The WNBA has not been profitable since the start of their existence.
They have lost well over 10 million a year on average.
The men subsidize them - otherwise they would have folded some time ago.

The NBA's revenue was north of 4 billion in 2023.

She's going to make bank in endorsements.
She'll be fine.
I wonder if she considered playing for the Big3 for a year though.

This.

I am glad there is a WNBA....but the players appear to be compensated more than fairly, all things considered.

frankly. catelyn clark is too big time for the wnba. it's beneath her.

she should get into the movies. or the wwe. or date leonardo dicaprio. sign a record deal. run for office.

she could be the next james bond.

i wasn’t clear, obviously

i think Clark’s level of compensation is absolutely fair…6 figures to play a game professionally seems reasonable to me

7, 8, 9, and 10 figures to play a game professionally isn’t reasonable to me (but this goes more to society and values/priorities, so i’ll just leave it there)
