Was hoping to see the CBA signed tonight but it is obvious that the WNBA wants the same old same old while players truly understand the long term impacts of this CBA. An equitable salary system is the only pathway foward.

In a statement to
@theathletic.com
, the WNBPA said that it has proposed a 6-week extension in the ongoing CBA negotiation. "We expect substantive movement from the league within this window." Unclear, at this time, how the league is/will respond to the offer. CBA expires tonight.

Caught this absolutely adorable interaction between Aerial Powers and Maya Caldwell. (They were so happy to see each other.) Powers played in Atlanta last season. Powers to Caldwell: “Don’t go crazy on us.” 😂

This is what NYC risks if we elect Cuomo or Eric. We need Dems/politicians who will fight for our autonomy and not basically welcome a military occupation Dems like Muriel are like going to war, pulling out a gun in the middle of battle and realizing its a water gun

Im extremely over the Liberty and their excuses 😩 I'm unfortunately a big believer in the regular season tells us how the playoffs and finals will play out. We do not look like a championship team. And I doubt we have what it takes at this point. No rebounds, no rings.

When ICE agents questioned a group of 11- to 14-year-olds who’d just finished batting practice, their coach, Youman Wilder, stepped in. “I’m willing to die to make sure these kids can get home,” he recounted afterward.

We are 100% an oligarchy. Both parties enable it. And if Dems were serious there would be a an effort and push to over turn Citizen's United the same way Republicans worked 50 years to overthrow Roe v Wade. We are living in Andrew Jackson's nepotism/meritocracy/pay for play empire 2.0

I have a rant in me about how, in terms of immigration, Dems often create/use systems that provide temporary protections only for Republicans to ultimately exploit them and use them for cruelty. (TPS, Humanitarian Parole, ITIN, DACA, etc.)
