@MindJailbreaker @JamesHeartfield That's a ridiculous position. A protest that doesn't infringe on the rights of others is completely ineffective and is no protest at all. Making it inconvenient for others so that they are forced to pay attention and help is the whole point.

This is the moment it kicked off in the Basque airport. You can see the flotilla activists made a line across the exit that blocked other passengers. The police tried to make a space for them to get through. The protester shoved the police and it started.

@GDJets68 I thought players was supposed to “shut up and dribble” or Coaches like Kerr weren’t supposed to voice their opinion? Or Steph Curry speaking against oppression? A lot of goalposts moving here!

idc about ticket sales but i called this in year 1, that a lot of her fans didn’t care about women’s basketball and were just a fan of one player. it’s not a healthy way to grow the game.

@Ronrosco2 @_veryhateful Anybody who pisses away an opportunity to grow when a Caitlin Clark comes along is the truly ignorant one as folks like yourself have proven.

@Ronrosco2 @_veryhateful The cultural tension was just as predictable as the demand spike. Long-time players fans built that culture when relatively few people cared. The league saw a straight white star headed for the spotlight and did nothing to manage what was coming. That’s the biggest fumble.

@Ronrosco2 @_veryhateful The NBA didn’t hesitate with LeBron. When you have a generational player driving new fans to your league, you move with urgency — especially when you can see them coming from miles away. Casual fans don’t wait around.

@Ronrosco2 @_veryhateful Yes, I realize that both are businesses that require customers to stay afloat so when generational opportunities to capture and lock in new customers arise, it is business suicide to not maximize that opportunity by locking in the new customers as quickly and solidly as possible.

@Ronrosco2 @_veryhateful It’s not hard. If you own a store that sells shoes with laces, & then a generationally popular shoe comes out with Velcro, do u start selling Velcro shoes to capitalize on the generational opportunity, or be mad that people wanna spend money in your store, but on Velcro shoes?

My question is this...they keep saying the fever and the league fumbled the situation... What is the situation? What did they want them to do differently? The girl broke records and was playing well and she is playing well this year....what is supposed to be done different? Do they want a Trump level rally every game? Do they want people to give CC the ball and then every player on the court to lay down until she makes it?

2 years ago the WNBA had its first bona fide box office star in Caitlin Clark. Her team, the Indiana Fever, had to move its games into massive venues, and charge hundreds of dollars for tickets in response to demand to see her play. Even today, out of jersey sales for ALL basketball players, hers are second only to NBA star Steph Curry...meaning she sells even more jerseys than guys like Lebron James. But with the hype came extra scrutiny on a league that was clearly unprepared for the big time, and more interested in identity politics than in growth. Before, the story was about a generational talent. Now it's becoming about a generational fumble. I've never seen anything like it.

@neweagle @RedSixerTwitch There was though. She held him to a different standard and punished him, but not white athletes doing the same.

As someone who ran and coached track for many years in high school and college this always will and always has been a huge no that will land you and your team in serious hot water. This shouldn't be a news story, very normal.

@Justin_WDE @stringlandscape @jlgolson @DJSnM There are plenty of CVR videos out there but they tend to be older US audio (ie Air Florida crash at DCA, Delta L-1011 wind shear at DFW), or Ex-US ones like Flying Tigers in 1986, JAL 123 in 1985, Western Air Dc-10 in Mexico City in 1979.

NTSB doesn't release cockpit voice recorders from crashes, except in this case they've released an image of a spectrogram. I'm not sure that's a good idea since you can probably reconstruct a lot of audio from the megabytes of data encoded in this image.

@BookerGWash Why just the “Power Four”? Why would it be ok for a black person to attend ANY public college in these states?

@NCBubblehead @RedSixerTwitch So, another person who thinks the black person must be racist. There was no differential treatment by this judge on this athlete. You should ask the question why.

NAACP President Derrick Johnson: The NAACP is calling on athletes coming out of high school not to attend any state-funded schools of states that have moved to minimize our right to vote. The NAACP will fight in solidarity with the CBC to ensure that we have representation, and if we don't, we will withhold the talent that play on the football field on the basketball court in this moment.
