women’s basketball players can make 3-4 times more than they do in the WNBA. You can look all this stuff up online.

fair. I’m more talking US specific leagues, which is kind of where this convo was angled. You’d still have women’s tennis in there I suppose, but leagues such as the LPGA and WTA are completely global leagues where the majority of competition takes place overseas. UFC is majority in the US with its competition, and…

are you asking for proof that women make more money and attendance is higher at professional women’s sporting events overseas? I do not have a spreadsheet in front of me, but it’s pretty common knowledge and something female athletes talk about quite regularly. As someone who works in the sports industry myself and…

but for the small investment by the NHL, why not give it a go for 5-10 years and see what happens.

it’s just an American thing man. Honestly. That’s about it. Our culture is so engrained on male professional athletes that adding to the fold is tough.

something like this wouldn’t grow their fan base any more than they currently grow in the female demographic. It’s just more they’d be indifferent to it. If it works, cool, but it’s not helping them. If it doesn’t, they wouldn’t be distraught over it.

I think the NLL was the Negro Leagues

it’s not really in the NHL’s interest, but it is definitely in USA Hockey’s best interests.

I’d heard of it, but that’s it. Never seen a recap, a score, who won the first season, etc... I heard of Kessel because of her brother basically. That’s about it.

really hoping Connor Letourneau is related to Mary Kay

lol not really

This video is on the long side

they’re working guys. The same jokes over and over are totally working!

There is a single, immensely complicating factor Georgetown must consider when weighing whether to fire John Thompson III: his name

Rovell wasn’t the only principled journalist to write about this incredibly generous offer from Adidas, of course. He was joined by SB Nation, Breitbart, Sports Illustrated, Bleacher Report, Fox Sports, Fox Sports Australia, CBS Sports, USA Today, Syracuse.com, UPI, Yahoo, SEC Country, CBS DC, The Comeback, Sporting…

still would

they are literally different quotes. That’s the difference. They are different statements that say different things. That’s the difference. One was said by a defense attorney. The other was made up by you because you think it helps you prove a point. That’s the difference.

if an investigator comes to you and asks “did you notice anything out of place? Did she look disheveled or was she acting differently at all?” and you say “no”, are you all of a sudden a “fuckwit witness”?

Please explain to me how “saying witnesses at the apartment told private investigators that the woman was not ‘disheveled or complaining of injury” is anything other than saying: “well she didn’t look and act raped, ergo, no rape!”
