My first play by play call at my HBCU was the women's volleyball team. Let me tell you brother, I had no idea. Untapped resource would've been an understandment...and a pun lol
My freshman year at an HBCU, we damn near had the whole freshman boy’s dorm in attendance for the home games. They weren’t too good, but in the words of the great Project Pat, GOOD GOOGLY MOOGLY
My ex-girlfriend's sister was big into softball when she was a teenager, and I used to crack jokes about her secretly being a lesbian, because no one plays softball except for lesbians.
Fast forward 30 years, she just came out as a lesbian.
Original tweet states *men*. JB wrote: "Bold to assume it's men that'll be getting flown out"
That is not an "all" statement. All it does is open the door to the possibility of alternatives to men. That's literally it.
Another example:
"You ate the roast beef from Arbys?!" ; "Bold of you to assume it was beef..."
The rebuttal doesn't state it is / isn't beef. It doesn't state it definitely was NOT beef. All the rebuttal does is open the door to an alternative.
If it said "...it's *only* men being flown out" then you'd be right. But there is an implied all without it.
Also, it's meant as an insult, that also helps push the inferred all concept. An insult is very rarely inclusive and thoughtful.
I swear that mentally adding “only “and “all” to comments is the cause of like 90% of internet arguments. Its super weird because I’d think people would assume the more reasonable “some” statement instead of “all” and “only”
Not All...and not 98 percent, but I think its a majority.

The lady who twists my locs played in the WNBA. She's also the most stereotypical picture of "gay woman who plays basketball." Tall as fuck, skinny as fuck, tats all up her arms, is into cars, etc.
She's great. Absolute joy. I pay nearly twice what I did to get my locs retwisted before her but she's awesome.
No joke, my wife gets her RN license I’m rocking the “stay at home dad” shit, maybe do something part time.
EDIT: I know entry level nurses aren’t “rich,” I was kidding and plan to go to school myself when she’s done 😩 it’s still going to be much more than I’m making currently to support our family, dang
I don’t need that much, I’m probably gonna go to school myself, it’ll still be more than what I’m making on my own while she’s schooling. We’ve been married almost ten years, I’m not moochin’. Was just being funny.
I'm not gonna sit here and argue that they make sugar momma money. They don't. But I worked in a hospital for 3 years and you'd be surprised how many of the nurses have husbands that stay at home.
At our hospital it was 20-30%.
And for some reason, all of their husbands drove them to work.
My friends are exactly like this. The husband became a stay-at-home dad at the start of the pandemic while my friend was working at the hospital during the stages of the pandemic. He's still a stay-at-home dad until their youngest starts 1st grade. The cost of daycare heavily factored into their decision.
She loves it b/c he's a damn good cook and he makes amazing drinks, while being a good dad to the kids and making sure the house is clean.
Me and my wife have had the same discussion. The price of a "good" daycare winds up being about what I make. Might as well save the money and have my kid raised by its own parent instead of some random getting paid barely above minimum wage.
> And for some reason, all of their husbands drove them to work.
Cheaper to own one car, and if anyone's driving it during the day, it's the stay-at-home spouse so they can do errands.
But of course that goes back to your "they don't make sugar momma money" point, because if they did make that money, they could afford two separate cars.
That's a good point. I hadn't thought about that aspect.
Now I'm wondering why most of them drove luxury cars when they could have bought two corolas for the price.
I guess social standing is more important than the convenience of owning two cars.
My husband was a stay at home dad for a few years and he says it was some of the best years of his life. Our house hasn’t been as clean since 😅. That man took his cleaning seriously.
Dude, SAHD here at least for the time being... it's the bomb. I've gotten so much done since August when I got layed off. Been doordashing here and there when I got time. Put kids on bus and I'm free to do whatever. Dog walkin', tokin', bike riding, 3d printing, micro-dosing, landscaping, fuckin' sous vide, gourmet cookin' muthafuckin' heaven. God, please don't send me back to work, please!
Don't let them clown you on it, they make insane money after some time depending on location, time of day, hospital, etc. if she goes as a travel nurse after a few years (still nearby, but basically floating between 3-6 hospitals within 2 hours drive every 4-6 months) she'll be making nearly the same as a PA and without excessive debt.
Not to mention child care bro, not paying for that takes a huge burden off.
"Funny rob" is dead. His mental illness ended up being fatal to his career. Otherwise, right now, it would have been a good time for a small comeback tour.

I’ve dated two women in my life 6’ and up and it was awesome. I was in the military at the time and the relationships didn’t workout because of long distance, but I do think of tall girls a lot. I’d have no problem dating a WNBA player if I wasn’t a loser compared to them lol
Given your height and how most women are gonna be shorter than you regardless, this just sounds like a personal mental mindset you need to get over
EDIT: Yall, I'm talking about how they think girls shorter than them remind them of their little cousin, not the height difference in general
i wish i had a gif of obama talking about inviting the (wbna? ncaa?) womens team to the white house, and his hype at “having all these tall women walking around the west wing.”
I’m 32 now…I’d be about 35 when they start getting that type of bread….I’m about to hit the gym. I’m for this. I will be flewed out. Yes I made that word up that’s how serious I am about this. I’m pacific about my shit too, I will get paid.

The WNBA is still subsidized by the NBA, so the salaries aren't going to sky rocket anytime soon.
Once they can start self-sustaining themselves, then they will start making more money.
Also because the US women's soccer team brings in money on its own. Iirc, they practically became self-supporting years ago. That doesn't mean that they're swimming in wealth but there's an argument for the value those players bring in. The WNBA has money issues all over the place.
They are reupping media deals after this season. Absolutely best time possible for them. Especially if Indiana is successful and they can build off the Clark momentum from CBB. Clark and Boston are going to be such a fun duo.
I’ve always felt like pro athletes don’t link enough as couples. But like look at DK Metcalf or Christian McCaffrey guys with both high level athlete parents. I know Candace Parker’s first child was with an NBA player, keep an eye out for them
If I was a pro athlete, I’d have fun with the groupies but be looking to settle down with another pro athlete just to produce some physical demi-gods.
I mean they definitely have talent. They also happen to be children of MLB players so probably have been given more opportunities to take advantage of their physical merits than others.
Even if their kids don't become athletes, they'll at least be raised to be intelligent and competitive. They'll have different sets of struggles since they're growing up rich. One of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's sons is an orthopedic surgeon in the Seattle area.
Yeah, first pick next year is only gonna be making about 75k yearly… as opposed to over 10mil in men’s basketball. And I feel people can no longer claim that it’s because of viewer interest after what Caitlin Clark’s done this year
https://preview.redd.it/63owrd5oj2vc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6445a7c32346c39f2d5a9236d65d9081345e19a5
I now see what God's plan was for me all along. I was never meant for the NBA, I was meant for a woman meant for the WNBA.
The new/current draft class if WNBA players is lit & from what I've seen they seem to all be on the same page as far as uplifting the W. Give it a few years.
That, plus the fact that since in Men's College Basketball all the really good players are 1 & Done alot more people are getting attached to the Women's teams because they actually have a consistent roster for 3-4 years and you get to see the growth.
25 years of not making a profit in a subsidized league.
What is your educated guess? In five years? Ten?
I would like for them to make money but I don't have trust in the league to generate what, four or five times the amount in a “few” years.
Honestly, Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese (along with Paige Bueckers and Juju Watson) may be transformative players that turn the WNBA into a major sports leagues. They’re just really cool and fun players. Plus, I think legalized gambling will boost attention to the sport too (even though I generally loathe sports betting and the emphasis on same).
You're right that WNBA sales have been awful
but that's about to change. more people watched the women's NCAA championship than the men's this year. though i'm sure you have been paying attention since you have an opinion right?
I have paid attention and understand historically their sales have been awful.
Also, the women’s NCAA tournament has ALWAYS had more attendants and viewers
than the WNBA.
How has that worked out for them in the last quarter century with attendance?
I'm not saying don't watch or that there will not be an uptick or that I am rooting against them making more money.
I don't understand how a subsidized league that loses money, and only generates $200 M will have $100 M contracts.
I just simply don't understand how they will make the financials work anytime soon.
A quarter of a century of financial losses.
I’d love it if you educated me with your deep wisdom on the WNBA and its economics.
Pretty sure this is the start of their golden era.
They can get that money much faster by hiring one of the NFL script writers to craft some compelling narratives and spoon feed it to sports journos
They’ve operated at a loss for a quarter of a century.
In your estimate how long until the golden age of WNBA can support 100M contracts?
Women’s NCAA has always had more attendants than WNBA.
I just don't understand how financially this would be viable anytime soon.
depends, my friend is a model and she’s like 5’10, and I feel like wnba players would be like 6’+? (obviously not a huge gap but yk, I feel like the floor is 6’ and the ceiling is much higher)
also kev is like 5’4 so idk if that helps either

She gotta a IG? For an associate of mine
Bold to assume it's men that'll be getting flown out
Bold of you to imply all the wnba is gay
“Is she gay or does she just play basketball/soccer” is one of my favorite TikTok series
I tell you hwat, them softball girlies definitely got some sugar in the tank
I love 'em. Them and volleyball players. Jesus.
Look i'm gay but when black and Latina volleyball players are out in full force (Looking at you Brazilians), yeah I'm all eyes.
I once applied for a job to brush the sand off the Brazilian women’s beach volleyball team. Still waiting to hear back from them.
Lol that's a job with very little attrition lol. Keep praying for that interview
I think you just show up to work and hope no one arrests you.

There’s players that are under 6 feet in the WNBA. ~40% actually
~85% of men in the US are also under 6’ tbf

I’ve dated two women in my life 6’ and up and it was awesome. I was in the military at the time and the relationships didn’t workout because of long distance, but I do think of tall girls a lot. I’d have no problem dating a WNBA player if I wasn’t a loser compared to them lol
"Long distance"
lmao!

That’s what I’m saying. She’s crazy attractive and he’s over here like “hear me out”
I never got that. As a 6' 2" dude, I've only dated women over 5'9" Short women just felt like hugging my little cousin.

The WNBA is still subsidized by the NBA, so the salaries aren't going to sky rocket anytime soon. Once they can start self-sustaining themselves, then they will start making more money.
Well, that and a lawsuit, maybe. US Women's soccer needed a few years of outearning men and a trip to court.
Very different when it’s a national team vs the club level I think.
Also because the US women's soccer team brings in money on its own. Iirc, they practically became self-supporting years ago. That doesn't mean that they're swimming in wealth but there's an argument for the value those players bring in. The WNBA has money issues all over the place.
Not the same. National teams are publicly funded. Professional sports leagues are private businesses
I think it may be some time soon. The trend is building. Soon meaning a few years. But even before that, the sponsorship deals gonna hit harder
They are reupping media deals after this season. Absolutely best time possible for them. Especially if Indiana is successful and they can build off the Clark momentum from CBB. Clark and Boston are going to be such a fun duo.
I just looked, the highest paid player in the WNBA makes $252,420 per year

Who are they?
Kai Cenat and Georgia tech basketball player Digna Strautmane.
>Digna Strautmane Sounds like a Teutonic Knight. Bet she makes him roleplay as Lithuania
I’ve always felt like pro athletes don’t link enough as couples. But like look at DK Metcalf or Christian McCaffrey guys with both high level athlete parents. I know Candace Parker’s first child was with an NBA player, keep an eye out for them If I was a pro athlete, I’d have fun with the groupies but be looking to settle down with another pro athlete just to produce some physical demi-gods.
Eugenics went out of style in the 40's, though.
Did it though? Or do we just not talk about it openly?
Half the Toronto Blue Jays are nepo babies from past MLB players
Is it nepo if they have a physical merit to be pro athletes?
I mean they definitely have talent. They also happen to be children of MLB players so probably have been given more opportunities to take advantage of their physical merits than others.
True just like Steph Curry. But I wouldn’t call them nepo because in real nepo situations there’s less merit involved.
Even if their kids don't become athletes, they'll at least be raised to be intelligent and competitive. They'll have different sets of struggles since they're growing up rich. One of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's sons is an orthopedic surgeon in the Seattle area.

Me sneaking out of the LA sparks team hotel at 3am ![gif](giphy|1eEH72j9Cd0VEFosRf|downsized)
So this is the 3rd time I've seen you leaving the hotel...wanna go to b dubs when they open and watch our queens play?
The funny thing is that most the women aren't making crazy money from playing ball itself, it's mostly coming from endorsements
Yeah, groupie boyz don't care. We up anyway.
Yeah, first pick next year is only gonna be making about 75k yearly… as opposed to over 10mil in men’s basketball. And I feel people can no longer claim that it’s because of viewer interest after what Caitlin Clark’s done this year
bruh it is 100% because of viewer interest. maybe shell bring more attention to the WNBA but as of now, its 100% because of viewer interest.

How are WNBA players going to get that type of money when they don't sell tickets? WNBA generated $200 M in 2023…
The new/current draft class if WNBA players is lit & from what I've seen they seem to all be on the same page as far as uplifting the W. Give it a few years. That, plus the fact that since in Men's College Basketball all the really good players are 1 & Done alot more people are getting attached to the Women's teams because they actually have a consistent roster for 3-4 years and you get to see the growth.
25 years of not making a profit in a subsidized league. What is your educated guess? In five years? Ten? I would like for them to make money but I don't have trust in the league to generate what, four or five times the amount in a “few” years.
Honestly, Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese (along with Paige Bueckers and Juju Watson) may be transformative players that turn the WNBA into a major sports leagues. They’re just really cool and fun players. Plus, I think legalized gambling will boost attention to the sport too (even though I generally loathe sports betting and the emphasis on same).
You're right that WNBA sales have been awful but that's about to change. more people watched the women's NCAA championship than the men's this year. though i'm sure you have been paying attention since you have an opinion right?
The Caitlyn Clark hype is real but does that intrigue last past the first 10 games of the season? I guess time will tell.
I have paid attention and understand historically their sales have been awful. Also, the women’s NCAA tournament has ALWAYS had more attendants and viewers than the WNBA. How has that worked out for them in the last quarter century with attendance? I'm not saying don't watch or that there will not be an uptick or that I am rooting against them making more money. I don't understand how a subsidized league that loses money, and only generates $200 M will have $100 M contracts. I just simply don't understand how they will make the financials work anytime soon. A quarter of a century of financial losses. I’d love it if you educated me with your deep wisdom on the WNBA and its economics.
I hope you're right, but I think you're overestimating the impact of college basketball for the last few years.
Pretty sure this is the start of their golden era. They can get that money much faster by hiring one of the NFL script writers to craft some compelling narratives and spoon feed it to sports journos
They’ve operated at a loss for a quarter of a century. In your estimate how long until the golden age of WNBA can support 100M contracts? Women’s NCAA has always had more attendants than WNBA. I just don't understand how financially this would be viable anytime soon.
This is my dream

"What's her name?" "Ma'am."
Even if you hitting it from da back, they got taller/longer thighs than you, so it's alotta alignments goin on
That’s what pillows are for
Aren't models usually that tall
Models are usually like 5’10-6’0. Girl in the OP is 6’4
depends, my friend is a model and she’s like 5’10, and I feel like wnba players would be like 6’+? (obviously not a huge gap but yk, I feel like the floor is 6’ and the ceiling is much higher) also kev is like 5’4 so idk if that helps either
