Phoenix Mercury star center Brittney Griner has spoken for the first time since the incident occurred at Dallas/Forth Worth International Airport where she was harassed by YouTuber Alex Stein.

She considers this situation "rock Bottom" for the WNBA regarding its charter flight rules.

Griner was the subject of harassment on June 10 at the airport, as Stein approached her and asked several questions, including whether she had sex with Vladimir Putin to get out of prison in Russia.

The WNBA Jigglers hit rock bottom a long time ago.

My understanding is that Greiner is more of a dangler than a jiggler.

Has that been proved? I’ve heard it said a few times- if she is a she, she is not very feminine, that’s for sure

LOL! Thanks for that. WNBA fans are big fans of both. Danglers and Jigglers.

Griner hasn't learned a thing from her stay in a Russian jail. It's not the job of the WNBA to keep Griner safe from hurt feelings.

One would think she would have developed thicker skin. But then again, she was treated better than ordinary Americans so she must think she is entitled to special treatment.

Is this the one that stole all that luggage for women’s clothing or am I thinking of somebody else?

WNBA should be offered equal pay and resources each season. If the teams fail to have the same ticket sales, stadium concessions and corporate advertising dollars as their NBA counterparts, the teams and players must pay the difference before they get their paychecks. Simple solution.

Several years ago our local JCC (like the YMCA) champion team played against a group of WNBA women.

We’re all former D1 (or close) basketball players, but everyone is well into middle age.

We wiped the floor with them.

That is the issue with the WNBA.

Alex Stein strikes again. Now the WNBA “ladies” can demand charter flights rather than going commercial.
