It's a crazy world we live in when someone saying something do innocuous becomes an issue:



Here's a funny write up about it:

Pam Ward was one of the ESPN PBP announcers who participated in an on-air protest against the so-called "Don't Say Gay" bill during the 2022 NCAAs by going silent for the first minute or two of the 2nd half of a tournament game.

The funniest thing about the WNBA is the basketball still gets zero interest ... it's all the racism and hate toward Clark and the related shenanigans.

I don't know if that's all. Clark has much talent and is genuinely fun to watch…. Unfortunately, the increased interest probably is because of all the petty melodrama. As if sports didn't already have enough of that silly stuff!

Agreed.

Angel Reese (the self proclaimed "other" reason more people are watching the WNBA) is a draw based on not just thuggery but by her sheer ugly play of 'Me-bounds" (had to watch spelling as she is trying to trademark the phrase), ugly mid-range airballs and bricks and, missed layups. She draws more post-game conversations on the drive home and "bar talk" than Clark does

Well to say America is great is to say Capitalism is great, and Marxism cannot maintain a foothold in this country if the country is doing well.

The only way to achieve true social justice is through Marxism and central rule.
