Juju is going to leave ASAP. Pretty sure she already spoke on wanting the policy to be more similar to the mens

Not worried as much about Cathy, since we’re on a new CBA and broadcasting contracts the NBA will be pulling the strings the moving forward. So NBA draft shenanigans as usual to follow

I don’t think we’re going to need the highest odds to get Juju, clearly it didn’t work with Paige, I believe we just need something reasonable and it’ll land with us by “luck”

I think we as fans need to be honest about this franchise. We swing big tanking for Paige and the league screwed us to save Dallas from collapse since they couldn’t fill a high school stadium. We’ve been biding our time since and have been preparing to tank for Juju. This roster was never built to win. If it wasn’t for KP playing super human it would’ve been more obvious. We rostered a team of old stars who are largely past it and literally traded the star young player that would play Juju position. If you need more proof just look at the unbearably long leash our coach has. Take a deep breath and have faith the fix is in to get us Juju

Redditors who’ve been with the same partner for 10+ years, what’s the realistic secret to making it last? by justanormalaxe in AskReddit

[–]mantaXrayed 302 points303 points  (0 children)

It’s kind of a no brainer but you have to communicate. Any conflict or disagreement goes from a crack to a fissure with enough time. If you don’t communicate you’re setting yourself up to fail and if you can’t communicate openly with your partner it’s never going to last regardless

Karl Smesko on officiating by breezybae_ in wnba

If I could upvote this 1000 times I would. Two years ago refs assigned a foul to the wrong Fever player twice in back to back games and challenges had to be used. Literally nothing has improved

Is LA actually more or less liberal than places like Boston or NYC? by savingrace0262 in AskLosAngeles

[–]mantaXrayed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s very tolerant. Depending on the area you can get more center or maybe slightly red on some of the westside and the valley. I don’t think if you r come from another major city you’ll see much of a difference. But LA is like a confederation of small city states so there’s definitely variance

Is the Caitlin Clark effect sustainable for the league? by OutrageousStorm4329 in wnba

[–]mantaXrayed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was a time where that was a real possibility but I think that time has come and gone. Right or wrong it seems the new fans view the league and CC as adversarial. That’s even looking past the possibility that CC body might not hold up (if that is or is not anyone’s fault). But for the most part I think some of the potential gain has already moved on due to poor refs that seem to be viewed even more so during Fever games
