Diana Taurasi “This shit fukn sucks. It’s a good reminder, we gotta come to play no matter who we are.” DT is 42-years-old, she’s not sugar coating a thing. And, yes, she has earned and deserves her spot on Team USA.

The Las Vegas Aces moved tonight's game against Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever to T-Mobile Arena.
The game sold out and the Aces will set a new single-game attendance record with 18,000+ fans.
Another big night for the WNBA.
This is a question for those who “know ball” and those who “know ball” only. If you don’t “know ball,” please keep scrolling.
Are these good stats for a rookie?
Or a vet?
Or any player in the WNBA?
Or any basketball player in general?
“We don’t have coaches running out into the court, kicking and screaming like toddlers toward officials and being pulled back by their players like you see around the country. That’s not us.”

Caitlin Clark: "I hope (fans) remember how we made them feel. How we brought joy to their lives. How we gave their families something to scream about on the TV on the weekends. I hope those are the biggest things that people remember. I hope all the young boys and girls remember
NFL could decide on potential Bills-Chiefs neutral site this week. Where do you want the game to happen? My top three choices: Lambeau Field, Heinz Field, Soldier Field.
I enjoy watching

I’ll never understand the reasoning behind women tearing other women down. It doesn’t help or grow anything.
Compliments followed by “but…” are bullshit.
Here’s 10 💛🖤
My only thought on Angel/CC “thing” is this…
CC was focused on getting to her teammates. Accepting the loss and supporting her team and coaches.
Angel’s winning moment was focused on individual revenge.
To each their own. Both these women made a choice.
GO HAWKS ALWAYS 💛
AWFUL:
#Colts
RB Tyler Goodson was in tears in the locker room postgame, after his drop that cost his team a chance to win.
“I'm going to go talk to my parents. They're probably the only people that are loving me right now.”
💔💔
More:
When will adult men realize that she is going to focus on signing stuff for kids. Pushing and leaning over people isn’t going to get you a CC autograph. 🙄
Caitlin Clark always makes time for her fans.
she ducked under the rope of the red carpet at the Full Court Press premiere screening to sign autographs ❤️
Women’s BB has become fun to watch except for this type of me, me, me shit from lots of players.
The pissy egos saying that WNBA has always been great and “wHerE hAve yoU bEEn?” has the same energy has “yOu CaN’T bE A Fan iF YoU dIdn’T gO TO scHoOl HeRE!”
K. Thanks. Bye ✌️

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Hawkeyes produce great football players and even better humans 💛🖤
Coop could have said anything, and he would have been justified in his response. He maintained a level head and faced the truth of doing all he can do now… move on.
"We kept fighting through the end of the game. Seems like it was all taken away on that one play".
Kirk called this one of the best plays he's ever seen. And Cooper had to fight back tears, recounting the overturned TD in the postgame press conference.
I know college kids are in the generation that may not have been around for 9/11, but surely they researched the history of the school they chose to spend thousands of dollars to attend…

I try my best not to complain without attempting to formulate a possible solution. I don’t have the answer or solution. I’m at such a sad and angry loss with this.
No, I won’t admit that. I have an 11 y/o who is very passionate about basketball. I want to be knowledgeable and understand the game better on different levels because it appears it will be part of my life for the foreseeable future.
I’m more of a

fan than anyone as a whole.
The last 5 Father’s Days I spent with my dad while he was alive were spent in Boji.
When he died, my Godfather included me in his Father’s Day Boji trips.
Now that he’s gone, I usually go by myself. I have so many amazing memories of both of them here.
I never feel alone ❤️

to announce my commitment to the University of Iowa Hawkeyes and 1122 Melrose! I want to thank God first for this incredible opportunity. Huge thanks to Busch Light, Coach Ferentz and the football staff, as well as the 1122 tailgaters. Ready to go all in! 🖤💛

The Story of a Sign - 2/8/24 - CHA
1/?
I understand that there is a no sign rule at Carver, but it is 11’s birthday and this was too clever to not make!
Security took the sign at the South doors. They said we could throw it away or hide it outside to pick up after the game.
It’d be cool if we all agreed that racism, misogyny and homophobia are wrong and assume that people think it’s wrong unless they tell or show you otherwise.
The general consensus of people assuming the negative is so draining.
CC doesn’t need to tell me this shit is wrong.
Life’s too short to waste opportunities like seeing a terrible offense disappoint thousands of fans that traveled to a baseball stadium that barely holds a football field just to watch a punter and a defense 🤣🤣
Making casual basketball parent conversation with Chad Greenway. Nbd.
We’ve yet to cover topics of getting his daughter to be a Hawkeye and how much I like his vodka.
Go Hawks.
Claire Bear has had a rough couple days battling a bug in her system.
She’s not just a dog. She’s the one constant in my every day.
No S/O. I work from home, and the girls alternate weeks with me. Claire Bear never leaves ❤️
Ts & Ps for a speedy recovery appreciated.
Just want to make sure I’ve got this right… Let me know if I’ve missed anything.
They’re planning on putting one girl on Caitlin Clark the entire game? And this is the defensive strategy that’s going to break Iowa’s offense? And this is going to happen in Iowa City?
For the first time in program history, the
@LionUpWBB
team is going dancing!
I spent the day in Hammond to preview Southeastern’s first-round matchup against Iowa.
SHE BACK 🩶🐾
Bloodwork looked good today! Fever is gone! She’s just about back to her derpy, silver self!
Thank you to everyone who checked in on her the last few days 🩶
Claire Bear Update 🐾
Still not feeling awesome.
She’s eating, drinking, and keeping things down. She’s hesitant to go up the stairs, and wants to be lifted on to the bed and the couch.
Lots of cuddles this afternoon 🩶
15 ➡️ 16
She was not supposed to see Day 2. Her surgeon called it a “miracle”… Now 16 🤯
“Striking” is how a NICU nurse described her, and that’s always stuck. I’ve always believed knowing her will change your life.
Fiercely grateful to be 16’s Mom 💜 What a fuckin’ ride!
When it comes to family and kids, the competition is put aside and B1G Ten supports B1G Ten.
Thinking of Jack and his family as they face this challenge ❤️
Boiler Nation,

"Iowa will most likely finish the season 11-1. They have a shot at making the playoff...Iowa is 6-1 and they are favored to win every remaining game on their schedule. And, they have the 133rd ranked offense out of 133rd teams...I AM NOT WELL." –

This LSU BS is the worst to watch. I’d you’re a better team, be a better team. Play as a better team.
All this cherry-picking and flopping and drawing RIDICULOUS fouls is garbage basketball.
And the smiles on their faces tell me they know exactly what they’re doing.
Opposing POV: Not one Hawkeye fan in my section was being obnoxious, and multiple times “Iowa Fans” were loudly called assholes, douches, etc.
ISU fans were constantly bitching and flipping off the field.
It was an annoying atmosphere, but not due to any Iowa fans around us.
I just called the local HyVee to see if they have any Caitlin Clark cereal.
“Ma’am the store is packed. I have no idea what we have and what we don’t.” 🤣🤣
