To hear Royce White speak, especially the part about "Sometimes identifying as a woman for purposes of basketball," is just so hysterically absurd but really exactly what these crazies are doing elsewhere... the whole transgender pretense just falls apart like a very bad joke that deserves groans and eyerolls. It's genius!

The WNBA coaches and front office are going to be very sorry they didn't stand up for Caitlin and Sophie.

Enes Kanter and Royce White are trolling the entire WNBA. (Love it - and I don't even watch girls' sports.)

OMG!!! Are former NBA players Enes Freedom and 6’8” tall Royce White actually going to be allowed to play for the WNBA..???? DiJonai Carrington should have been PERMANENTLY banned for grabbing Sophie Cunningham around the neck and slamming her to the ground!!! Any and all WNBA players who rough-house in such dangerous manner should be banned PERMANENTLY. Intentional violent behavior is NOT acceptable!!!

Camille Paglia said 10+ years ago that these phenomena are the signs of a nation in decline / one that no longer knows what it is or stands for. The question is: which came first? Is it that the west was declining already, or did these ideas get 'dropped into the ether' to cause or amplify that decline? Clearly, there are some very powerful people who are doing everything they can: geo engineering, GM mosquitoes, va><ines, bankrupting the nation one big city at a time... all to decelerate the West's ability to succeed or find its way out of the mess it's in.

Rev. Fred Phelps famously described the US as a "fag nation" and rampant effeminate homosexuality certainly does seem to be the norm among the males, far more than in other countries. But transgenderism is where the US really stands out from other countries. Prominent transgender Republicans such as Caitlin/Bruce Jenner have helped make the US the world leader in putting biological.males into women's sports and rest rooms.

True. But it goes beyond effeminate homosexuality among males. I look around and see mostly physically and mentally unhealthy people around me. Mostly fat, which is just insane. Not to mention spoiled and entitled. Sure, there is a substantial minority of very solid citizens. But the percentage of my fellow citizens I'd call solid is much less than the 60s and 70s, when I became old enough to observe such things. It's not just the utter decay of the ruling class. The whole country just isn't up to the job today, and there's no reason to expect it to turn sharply around, although there are some positive signs. We're coasting on the inertia of what was built decades ago. And ballooning debt, of course. That's unsustainable.

This place. Oof.

Wow. I’ve never watched a WNBA game. And now I know I never will.

Since the WNBA is obviously not interested in addressing the violent actions and words of its racist black players, I'd say it's time for Clark and Cunningham to start a new WBA. An organization that demands sportsmanship and high character. Something the WNBA evidently does not understand.

It would be good to see a new league formed. Those who run the WNBA from Fifth Avenue , New York City are too prejudiced and indecent to give a damn. One has to wonder about the personalities of those running the league and the stupidity and prejudice of the referees, many coaches, and club owners. What a cesspool.

So far there have been no serious injuries, but it seems like the fouls are heading in the direction of a hospitalization. At this point I think it would be easy for a lawyer to establish that the WNBA is negligent in controlling the foreseeable the violence.

Dennis Sullivan's avatar

What Carrington did to Cunningham's neck could have caused a dislocation /severance of her cervical spinal cord resulting in full paralysis. The referees are both ignorant (very stupid) and prejudiced.

Why does anyone watch these degrading performances? One answer might be that they cater to the reptile brain -- but that would be insulting to reptiles. I'd sure rather watch Komodo dragons than these grotesque monsters affecting to pursue a 'sport'. Just turn it off.

Dennis Sullivan's avatar

Brilliant thinking. Is it the amygdala that is reptilian in many people ? It doesn't matter because you hit it perfectly- reptilian -creepy and self serving.

Reptiles are different from mammals. For one thing, reptile do not have dreams when they sleep.

Dennis Sullivan's avatar

So do all mammals dream ?

I played girl's basketball, starting in junior high, back in 1966. It was the 1st girl's team in the school's history. We had two excellent coaches. We were taught to first compete with our own self, to hone our abilities, then to merge that with our team. We were all good players and not out to get the other team. Just playing our best. Cutthroat competition did not exist..yet. when I see how it is, today, with money, drugs & dramas in sports, I will look forward to seeing this type of competition leave the world. It is killing the co operative spirit of life on this planet.

This is hilarious! We love it that Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White are coming in as the enforcers and throwing the left into chaos. I agree with Kathleen, it won't be long until the WNBA regrets their left agenda and everything changes, perhaps even with new coaches and certain unnamed players!

The highest divorce rate is among lesbian couples. Perhaps an indicator of wnba drama??

KurtOverley's avatar

I should probably encourage my twin teenage boys to declare themselves to be transgender lesbians. That would greatly increase their odds of being accepted into a good college, making it as professional soccer players, plus I can still look forward to grandkids.

Barbara's avatar

ha ha, probably true :) On the other hand, we think it's hilarious that Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White are coming in as the enforcers and trolling the WNBA - looks like good changes are coming soon!

Dennis Sullivan's avatar

To Kurt- it is hard for those of us hoping to live to age 80 to see how the USA has turned into a cesspool. We remember when things were simple and you could call a foul ball what it was. The mainstream media has made it possible and popular for humans to be lunatics of all types.

Dennis Sullivan's avatar

Carrington yanked the neck of Sophie Cunningham. That could have caused a severe spinal cord injury. That was the first thing that entered my mind. When you violently yank someone's neck you can sever and/or dislocate the cervical spinal cord. But the WNBA to include its referees doesn't get it.

Any intentional foul designed to cause severe injury should be cause to suspend that player for a whole season.

Can a player bring criminal charges against another? If so it is worth doing. Those rotten people intending to cause severe injury should be thrown out of any league.

I don't understand the promotion of transgenderism being in the best interests of the Women's National Basketball Association, such that reporters are baiting certain players that are not outspoken in favor of having "men" play in their league. It's gotten ridiculous to the point that the so-called mainstream news outlet CBS Evening News leads off their stories about the players in the WNBA with a reference to her opinions about the tranny issue. At least, that's a change from their previous lead-in line about whether the player was white or black.

However, if the WNBA wants to promote the concept of men playing in the women's league, then they need a name change. They will have surrendered the right to call themselves the Women's National Basketball Association.

Maybe We Need Better Athletes would be a better name. And they won't even have to change their logo!

I have WNBA fatigue.

Who would have thunk there would be drama in women sports? 🤣🤣

Dennis Sullivan's avatar

I get your irony. Male soldiers in the military call it "the drama".
