war damn eagle, go wings, fuck ice, and free palestine

[valenly]

Not sure if the podcast is ending or Mackenzie is leaving the production crew! Either way, so proud of how season 1 turned out!

[valenly]

we can't talk here... slack me 👀👀

[valenly]

people genuinely thinking a couple broke up because one of them wasn't seen at the other's game, holy shit just blow up the earth now

(ps - i'm 100% sure that a not being seen there was very intentional)

[valenly]

paige's line with an hour before the meet and greet starts!

(needless to say i will probably not be meeting her today lol) i am waiting for her panel rn though!

[valenly]

y'all paige's first appearance is at 2:30 and there's been people in line since w live opened at 10 😭

[valenly]

Funny, yes, but not funny haha, funny weird 🤨🤨

[valenly]

when we lose this season, I just think about how I was somehow a fan of the wings the year before Paige got here and all of a sudden i'm a girl that's going to be ok again 😭

[valenly]

everyone thought geno was gonna be glazing azzi and it turns out he's head of jess fc 😭😭

[335538]

as manager of positivity fc, hey we take it on the chin and we move on. she will be on that all star list in her future i have no doubt abt it. excited for an amazing game as i hope the basketball gods don’t take something without giving something back 🙌 make em regret it azzi!!!

[valenly]

This is just my opinion, but Azzi will most likely be doing the 3-point competition/Skills challenge, if she accepts obviously. I also think there's a high chance she's an injury reserve player for the game itself.

Assuming she wants to be there, there's absolutely no way they're letting a player of her popularity not be involved in All Star Weekend somehow!!

[valenly]

azzi already reposting this is sending me 😭

[valenly]

they got the geico gecko on the podcast i'm fucking screaming 😭😭

[valenly]

First couple of minutes is the 100% correct take about this mess (imo)

[arcticstarlighttt]

Big problem in the W and WBB in general is thinking (social media) engagement = growth no matter what

Journalists, fans, media outlets, actual teams etc, are all guilty of this

It’s a big reason behind the growth of some of the nastiest discourse we’ve seen in women’s sports, and the excess homophobia/sexism/racism that these women have faced the last few years

Growth with this kind of cost/downside isn’t sustainable and there’s a way to grow the game that doesn’t open the players up like this

[valenly]

not only as an azzi fan, but as someone who works in wbb social media, why in the ever-loving fuck would they see that as a good post in the first place 🤨

[valenly]

please tell me someone else heard paige yelling on that potential azzi and-1 😭😭
