i need marina to get to 40+ points atp #unrivaled #wbb

i literally am AT the marina maybrey game im so happy #WNBA #wbb

MARINA MAYBREY I LOVE YOU BAD 27 points, a technical foul, and 20 bucks in the crashout jar in one quarter #WNBA #wbb

listening to rebecca lobbo on a touch more and it is just making me hate her ass more #WNBA #wbb

guys the world is literally horrible but anyway logging back on here to say that my dad got me the angel reese shoes (in pink!!!) for christmas. i love women’s sports so much and it means everything that my dad has been so excited to talk sports with me, and how much he likes women’s sports too #wbb

it’s understandable for a white author to not only write white characters but yikes! what a disservice to the stories that people of color live every day, to only be reduced to outlines and passing descriptions. did an asian editor even read this book? #HeatedRivalry

Shane in The Long Game is heavily implied to have an eating disorder and bad relationship with food, but neither of the characters have any relationship to cultural foods. shane never eats any japanese food or even describes wanting to even ilya never eats anything russian #HeatedRivalry

we get a lot of talk about ilya’s family and cultural context and how it affects him, but shane appears to us in the novel fully formed. does he have grandparents? how do they feel about his parents being in an interracial relationship? how would that inform his perspective? #HeatedRivalry

it seems to me as though rachel reid remembered that there a lot of asian people in canada and wanted to have one in her novel, but didn’t actually know or care enough to find out how that would inform her writing or the character himself #HeatedRivalry

shane is repeatedly described as hairless and naturally submissive to the point of excess in the novel, but his relationship to being half japanese and in a majority white sport is never explored as one of the factors that might prevent him from wanting to come out publicly #HeatedRivalry

i think that the Heated Rivalry book is at best poorly written and at worst genuinely racist at a certain point, which i think we reach midway through Heated Rivalry, having an asian character whose only relationship to being asian is via sexual stereotypes is lazy, racist writing #HeatedRivalry

made this t shirt design after consuming the heated rivalry book. i now halfway through The Long Game and it is still extremely relevant. #HeatedRivalry

me while audi crooks is boxing me out and dropping 30+ on my team: “hey any chance we can get a studio version of dancing on my own?” #wnba #wbb #ncaa

literally young lesbian fans of Heated Rivalry yall are going to lose it when you learn about the WNBA #WNBA #HeatedRivalry

Being the number one draft pick, and making your competition for rookie of the year your bottom has the same energy as being the number one draft pick, falling in love with your teammate, and stealing her from her husband #WNBA #HeatedRivalry

ilya rosanov has the homosexual swag we’ve only ever seen once in sports history: Diana Taurasi #WNBA #HeatedRivalry

maddy seigrist has a sexy voice tbh #WNBA

the studbudz like they’re one person lmao #WNBA

girlllllll the league LYING #WNBA

damn no one from chicago wanted to go to the draft lottery??? yikes #WNBA

nothing like moving from women’s sports to men’s sports being called a “promotion” #WNBA

my team didn’t win the finals but i love the WNBA so much im crying anyway im crying because i love women’s basketball because chelsea gray gets to talk about her wife and son in the postgame interview i love you women’s sports #WNBA

listen I don’t mind if the aces win they’re playing amazing and aja wilson is the best player to touch a basketball but i hate that it means tom brady wins anything #WNBA

alyssa thomas you’re a wnba champion to me #WNBA

and you take from my my Unicorn. and you take from me my girl dad. and you take from me my Kah. and still I put my shoulder back into the socket and hoop. -alyssa thomas, probably #WNBA

“the best thing he could do right now is get ejected-“ literally what i was saying as it happened #WNBA

Why is my pain unceasing, my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? Truly, the #WNBA player protection protocols are to me like a deceitful brook, like waters that fail. -Jeremiah 15:18 quoting all of us who love AT + all these players + are over watching them endure untenable conditions

fuck my actual life fuck everything literally what is the point #WNBA

FUCK #wnba #WNBA

if PHX doesn’t fire nate tibbets i swear to god i will go back to college study sports management work on a college team for a decade become a GM in the WNBA get hired by the Phoenix Mercury and fire Nate myself #WNBA

the “thank you, nate tibbetts” IG post ready to go live tonight #WNBA

now whattttt did dana evans and AT say to each other ?? #WNBA

Natasha Mack i will not forget you!!!! #WNBA #wbb

my brother is an mNBA watcher mostly he watched and enjoyed tonights finals game his main takeaways? aja wilson is a generational talent kah copper is cold as ice nate tibbets’ coaching is “fucking malpractice” #WNBA

it’s disrespectful to the players, many of whom the mercury organization courted as franchise players they were promised resources and a competent coach should be among those resources it’s disrespectful to becky hammond, who has been a dedicated player and coach in this league #WNBA #wbb

this phoenix mercury are a competent, even amazing, basketball team they are being done a disservice by being forced to follow a coach that, put simply, has no idea what he’s doing. success in men’s sports does not translate to success in women’s sports #WNBA #wbb

no because this is the problem with hiring coaches with no women’s basketball coaching experience i’m not saying for sure that the mercury could win this title if he wasn’t their coach but they are continually put into bad positions because of his inexperience #WNBA #WBB

if i’m the mercury organization i would like a refund of 2.4 million dollars on nate tibbets #wnba #WNBA

thank god i get to watch women’s basketball tonight i am having a hard time and i love watching women’s basketball surely the issues which plague my personal life regarding work and workers rights will not be reflected in the women’s basketball-oh wait #WNBA

the aces played amazing of course but i’m really sick of watching nate coach feels like the merc made it to the finals despite him and not with his help #WNBA

i hate nate tibbets i refuse to learn to spell his name #WNBA

nate what the fuck did i tell you #WNBA

nate if you don’t stop satou from taking those deep threes i swear to god #WNBA

about to start work lmk if cathy says anything smart (we know she’ll say some stupid stuff) #WNBA

Finally got some employment but it means i have to work during game one of the wnba finals so it better be the worst game of the series i hope they all just stand there and nothing cool happens #WNBA

@wnba you will pay for your crimes these are world class athletes and you have worked them onto such a tight schedule that their bodies are breaking down it is disrespectful to the players and the sport itself #WNBA #wbb

THIS IS NOT HOW I WANT IT TO BE KELSEY MITCHELL NOOO #WNBA

unrivaled event near where i live while im unemployed? say much less #WNBA #WBB

napheesa collier, the WOMAN THAT YOU ARE!!! and let’s not stop at cathy. this goes to the mNBA, because who hired cathy? who pays her? #WNBA

i guess we should enjoy the wnba basketball we have now, because we won’t get more for a long time i as a fan am prepared to support the players in a lockout workers rights above all else #WNBA
