I recorded this on May 15th of last year. You were cut from Dallas, didn’t know if you’d be back in the #WNBA, we went to the local Y, and you just kept working.
Now you’re the @WNBA MIP. What a testimony! This award hits different. Congrats sis. You earned this. @Veronicaab22 💜
@beatingthebook Your mention of Showtime’s Action got me to buy it this weekend…wow, great series! Love the juxtaposition of Krack vs Vegas Dave in ep 3.
I see lots of morons trying to act like WNBA players don’t deserve more money. They are throwing around this “lost 50 million” number that nobody even knows where it comes from. The finances of the league are a mess, tied in with NBA and purposely murkey. The owners don’t want to say how the league is doing cause then you gotta pay more going into bargaining agreement. The league is exploding. Franchise values are exploding. Ticket sales, merch, tv rights all exploding. The players have an opt out in their CBA. Of course they took it. It’s all about leverage in re-negotiations and for the 1st time in history of league players have power. The players make virtually nothing while the entire league explodes. Of course they deserve more money. Just the values of the team pay for it without all the other stuff. If somebody told me I could buy a Boston team for 250 million I would do it without blinking. That’s all you got to know about the WNBA finances.
