I talk about the intersection of sports, gender, politics and pop culture. Denmarkโ€™s only WNBA expert. She/her. Some writing in Danish to be expected.

The WNBPA has issued a statement re: Napheesa Collier's comments.

"The leaders of the league and its teams would benefit from listening to her powerful statement. The players know their value even if the league does not."

One obvious thing about the labor negotiations that I think is unique to the W vs other sports leagues: I think the league has much less leverage than other pro leagues do. These players already gotta get their bread somewhere else.

Napheesa Collier's full statement at the beginning of her exit interview.

She directly quotes conversations with Cathy Englebert that legitimately call into question how the WNBA is being led. (Part 1/2) #WNBASky

Blueskyโ€™s limitations on video length are too bad because one video canโ€™t contain all four minutes of Napheesa Collier absolutely ethering WNBA leadership

Englebert's job is to be a heat magnet and take away attention from the group really negotiating the WNBA CBA, which is the NBA. By all means, boo her ass off when she rears her head (especially during in-game interviews, PLEASE) but save some vitriol for Adam Silver and the NBA owners.

Napheesa Collier concludes her statement with:

"We have the best league in the world. We have the best fans in the world. But we have the worst leadership in the world."

With Sandy Brondello out, Cheryl Reeve has officially been on the job longer than every other WNBA coach combined.

Cheryl Reeve's tenure: 5768 days

Wouldnโ€™t have guessed that Sandy Brondello would be without a job, while Chris Kolances is still employed.

Iโ€™m obviously not in the locker room but it feels like Sandy Brondello is treated with a level of expectations that pretty much no other coach in the league has to match, first in Phoenix and then in New York

It's also worth noting how the NBA, which owns 42% of the WNBA, is working to make sure that more WNBA franchises wind up in the hands of NBA owners.

"We're all throwing dildos at women athletes to promote our memecoin" really puts a fine point on not just how sexist, mean and stupid so much of right now is, but also the grim degree to which we're just inundated with Stuff a 15-Year-Old Dipshit Would Think is Cool. A confederacy of Beavises.
