Recently, during an interview with reporters, the center for the Phoenix Mercury, Brittney Griner, accused WNBA fans of shouting racist comments towards her, her teammates, and even opponents during games.
“I don’t appreciate the new fans that sit there and yell racial slurs at myself, my teammates, and the people that I play against because, yeah, those my best opponents, but those are friends too,” she said.
Brittney Griner claims WNBA fans are screaming racial slurs at her and other players. This is a lie. Any video of this happening would lead left wing sports media for a week:

Of course, that’s a serious accusation, and Griner has been getting a lot of hate on social media for people not believing her.
“Lol …… please can they start pointing these people out instead of creating completely false narratives …. This has gotta be the most pathetic league in the world..” said one comment.
“Can anyone provide a video of these “racial slurs” y’all always playing victim it’s WILDDDD,” said another.
“None of this is true. You’re on an endless search for things to make your league relevant. Why not try letting it be relevant for the level of play rather than the level of complaining,” added a third.
“People at the games would be posting videos IF this were happening. Why haven’t we seen videos? It’s NOT happening,” continued a fourth.
Of course, if these claims are true, you hope the WNBA will take action to stop them.
Brittney Griner And Phoenix Mercury Were Eliminated In The First Round
Going into the playoffs, Griner and her Mercury entered as the seventh seed out of eight total playoff teams.
That set them up for a best-of-three series against the second-seeded Minnesota Lynx.
Unfortunately for Griner, her team would be eliminated in just two games and never even got to play in a home playoff game. The last time Phenox won the finals was back in 2014.
Former NFL Quarterback Brett Favre Lashes Out At Taylor Swift, Accuses Her Of Using Her “Influence” For Foul Reasons

Former NFL star quarterback Brett Favre has taken a swipe at pop sensation Taylor Swift for political reasons ahead of the upcoming 2024 presidential elections.
The 11-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro is known to be a supporter of former President Donald Trump and has previously endorsed him.
He’s since taken a shot at Swift, who recently endorsed Democratic candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris following Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes informing everyone that he wouldn’t endorse a candidate.
“Good take by Mahomes,” he wrote in a tweet.
“I see a lot of celebs trying to influence their audience instead of letting the people think for themselves. If the best choice for them ain’t clear and they’re easily swayed by their fav pop artist, it’s not going to be a good thing.”
