WNBA Drama: Locker room Tension for L.A. Spanx

[PastyStoole]

Maybe they're just jealous of some of the girls who are more popular, but the cliquiness and cattiness seem to have spilled out into an all-around difficult situation. Spanx' coach Derek Fischer didn't help things when he offered to let players stay home during their "ladies' time" every month, (encouraging them to in a hopeful tone, really). It all seems to have started when GM Penny Toler made a comment about Candace Parker's new hairstyle. Later another player was heard making a retaliatory comment about Toler's "nappy weave." Toler told her "You're not pretty enough to be this stupid, gurl." The unnamed Spanx player then shot back, "Does it cost a lot of money to look as cheap as you do?" The nails came out and the fur began a-flyin'.

I can't get enough of the WNBA. The locker room drama, the two-handed chest heave set shots, the sight of mullets in the crowd and the smell of mullets in the locker room. This is American sport, born of feminist Title IX entitlement, and it could not be better.

I have a friend who is a nutritionist for the DC WNBA team. She says it's ".....interesting." But they pay her well and actually took her on the road w/ them for the playoffs. (and yes, she's straight and married to a buddy of mine)

Dang! We like the same things! Do we differ on politics because I drifted or because you stubbornly didn't?

People like us (experienced) usually find more to unite with than to divide with..........probably a little of both in your question.

Thought the joke was that the team name is The Spanx. But nope.

Anytime the subject of WNBA, woman's soccer, or LPGA comes up one MUST "assume"....

Started throwing a castnet when I was five. Mullet is really good eats and don't forget the roe. Dredged in cornmeal and fried in butter, the white and yellow are better than beluga caviar. Politics has very little to do with good taste.

I cant believe they keep this league afloat with no decent revenue. Well I guess I can with the PC culture.
