Equating drag queens existing to Christ's suffering? BUDDY. As a Catholic, here's what I find offensive:
1. The Church's cover-up of abuse.
2. The Church's treating women as second class-citizens.
3. The Church using women religious' labor, but not helping them financially.

Framing this as being an oaf or awkward is completely missing the point. It was completely unprofessional and broke the trust players should be able to have in the media who cover them. Take a step back and for fuck’s sake don’t turn this into a column.
Today in my uniquely oafish way, while welcoming

When pro ball players talk about each other, they don't talk about MVPs or defensive players of the year or All-whatever. They talk about rings. This take doesn't surprise me at all.

I am a women's basketball writer. There are lots of things women's sports need support on, but in my 15 years of covering sports, I've yet to see an actual issue of trans people hurting women's sports. You're being sold a bill of good to attack LGBTQ people.

Seriously, announcers who do this should be pulled off their next assignments because they’re not doing their job. If you refuse to say a name you find difficult, find a different line of work.
These CFB announcers gotta stop saying “I’m not even going to try to say that name.” Read a media guide for phonetic pronunciations and get yourselves together please.

The WNBA didn’t get behind Warnock simply because he was running against Loeffler. They talked to him, investigated his platform, and backed him because they thought he was the best person for the job.
Myself and multiple players around the league have gotten on zoom calls with Rev Warnock and have loved everything he stands for and the platform he’s running on. Rev Warnock’s history of fighting for the oppressed speaks for itself.

Ok so some of you made jokes about the NBA reconsidering the term “owner.” Look at this wording here. “Mr. Stevens” vs. “Kyle Lowry,” after it was Stevens who acted anything but gentlemanly? Language matters. It shapes our thinking.
