I sincerely hope not either. However, the headline “Police Appear To Shoot Stolen Van Suspect...” implies that the cop(s) shot the suspect for no reason other than because he stole a van, not because the suspect displayed a gun and aimed it at the cops while evading arrest. A more accurate headline may be, “KTLA…

Well, coaching comes from the lack of women who play those sports. Almost all coaches (although, not 100%, and that number is changing too) played the sport at the collegiate level or higher. There are no women who play tackle football at the collegiate level (wasn’t there a female kicker for LSU’s practice squad a…

Thank God shes not doing hockey.

If the game goes badly because of a poor shooting performance by their superstar, then it can be “All in all / it’s just another brick from John Wall”

She is my favorite part of life in pieces - she is never not funny.

Thankfully it wasn’t Mauro Ranallo, else he’d be ignoring all the story to make sure you knew he knew the names of the moves.

Well sure, but THIS article is talking about how the fact that you can stumble onto the stuff without looking for it is more of an issue on tumblr. Reddit has all sorts of weird shit, but for the most part you actually have to go look for the subreddit to find it, or at least click over to it when someone links it.…

““Some people say you need to get more people to watch the WNBA and then you’ll get the coverage. I think you need more coverage of the WNBA and people will want to watch. Make more of a commitment on the media side of things do more, and get people excited about going to a game.”

Oddly enough, this is the most condensing comment in this thread.

Lax is kind of a shit spectator sport (as someone who played my entire life). It is okay live, but TV hasn’t figured out how to shoot a game to make the action both clear and exciting. It is all long shots which makes it feel slow.

DS covering the NWSL (or woso in general) can’t be any worse than its current coverage. I wouldn’t mind it in the least.

I think the issue is that people have a finite appetite for sports, and there isn’t much room on most people’s plates to care about another league and another team and another sport. Even the NHL struggles for ratings and relevance outside of its own cities, and is barely covered on any major sports media outlet (I…

If you don’t want a bunch of explanations, maybe don’t frame the article as a question and then get all upset when people give answers you don’t like.

NBA history also suggests that the WNBA is just fine. About 20 years in, a lot of NBA players were working second jobs to make extra money, and they weren’t playing in front of sellout crowds. Teams were constantly moving around and there was a lot of change. In 1967, the American Basketball Association formed and…

Mansplaining is a sexist term. Oh shit, I just mansplained, didn’t I?

On top of that I think the summer is just a time for sports fans to get away from, well, sports in general and decompress. I know there’s a sensible argument for the summer schedule but I think aligning the WNBA schedule to the NBA’s would be the best bet to increase interest- align things so that each WNBA team has a…

This is a quandry that not only affects women’s basketball, but also applies to plenty of other sports, not all of which are women’s sports.

Although I have zero interest in women’s ball, I have long felt “We Got Next” was one of the great marketing slogans of all time.

“I thought it was lazy,” she said. “You have these sites that don’t cover the WNBA during the regular season, the playoffs or even the Finals. Yet, they run a negative story about the league because they want to get clicks and views.”

The summer season is huge factor. People don’t watch a lot of TV or attend a lot of indoor sports in the summer.
