"The WNBA is embracing its role in the current anti-racist political movement, but one owner believes that politics can and should be removed from sports.

Georgia Republican Senator and Atlanta Dream co-owner Kelly Loeffler is against the WNBA’s plans to support the Black Lives Matter movement, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution."

Sex Toys Thrown at WNBA Games Pay Off for Polymarket Traders

Despite player and coach objections, multiple green sex toys have been thrown at the court during live WNBA games over the last week. Crypto-based prediction market Polymarket is letting people stake money on whether more disruptions will occur as soon as Wednesday night, after one anonymous user earned more than $6,000 following the latest illegal stunt.

"Everything Woke Turns To Shit" is no longer a mantra for those of us reeling from the insanity of the last 10 years in particular.

It is the now going to be an actual chapter title in the fucking history books-to-be.

I think it's funny, but god damn my 14 year old is talking about dildos being thrown on the court. We talked about it today, well he brought it up. He then drops a "hmmmm Bobby" from Bad Friends. I'm like you're watching the same shit I am.

Got to talk to your kids all the time. I try 30-60 min a day. Found out one of the kids dad (kids friend) beats his son constantly. He also coaches baseball. Always be talking. My kids will not go around that family anymore.

Back to the dildos, like I said, funny. Probably a top 10 troll considering 30-40% of them are probably lesbians. Kudos to whoever threw the first one out. Should autograph it and auction it off. Probably worth more than the league... lol.

You don't think this whole thing is just made up marketing campaign to try to get people to actually pay attention to sport no one cared about prior to it? I wouldn't be surprised that some exec came up with that on power point, and someone decided to make it happen to see if they can get attention.

I read on internet tubes that there is some Green Dildocoin or something similar, and this is its advertising. Not sure tho

No. For a flash in the pan type thing sure. Can't turn around women's basketball though. Not gonna happen.

With middle school and a high schooler now, the female games are half attended compared to boys. Even your parents don't want to go to their daughters games. If you're into basketball, it's flat out shit on the female side. I can't watch female basketball. It takes every bit of me to restrain myself from running on the court and beating the shit out of them. I'm not joking.

Even boys basketball is shit now and mens NBA. It's trash. I get 3 is more than two, but you're 50% more likely to miss it and all 5 players are standing outside the 3 point line. Run and rebound is what I tell my son. An easy layup or outlet pass for an assist. He usually gets a triple double most games. Probably a 12pts/10rb/10ast stat line. You win that game with a player like that.

Grew up on the Bulls though watching every game. WNBA needs to lower the rim if they want more entertainment factor. Women can't do a 10' rim. Moving it down to 8' would help immensely but still probably not profitable. They need to be able to dunk and get away from this 3 point shit.
