WNBA fans call out glaring double standard after Angel Reese’s clueless response to Paige Bueckers bet
The league deleted a video of Reese and Paige Bueckers agreeing to a $400 bet and issued a statement announcing no discipline
Atlanta Dream star Angel Reese doesn't care about the PR damage control the WNBA is currently going through.
The WNBA was mercilessly criticized Wednesday after sharing, then deleting, a video featuring Reese and Wings player Paige Bueckers.
The league's social media team inadvertently highlighted one of the most sensitive issues in professional sports: gambling.
.
.
Others wondered whether Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham would've received the same treatment. Just look at the firestorm surrounding Cunningham, then ask whether the sports media is holding Reese and Cunningham to the same standard.
"[Reese] only admitted it because it was filmed, who knows what other games she bet on?" one critic wrote.
.
.
Under Section 5(c) of the WNBA's Collective Bargaining Agreement, players are strictly prohibited from placing wagers, directly, indirectly, or even as a side bet, on any league game. Violations give the commissioner broad authority to impose severe penalties, ranging from fines and suspensions to permanent banishment in order to protect the integrity of the league....

Just sayin': Only league where there is no penalty at all for betting on your games.

Skull Session: Ohio Stadium Has New Turf, Bret Bielema and Curt Cignetti Fire Shots at the SEC, and Ryan Day Wants the Buckeyes to Leave a Legacy Behind This Year
Ohio Stadium has new turf, Bret Bielema and Curt Cignetti fire shots at the SEC, and Ryan Day wants the Buckeyes to leave behind a legacy in 2026.
“APPRECIATE YOU BRINGING THIS UP.” Oh, Bert.
Illinois head coach Bret Bielema made headlines at Big Ten Media Days this week when he said college football is moving forward while the SEC is stuck looking backward.
“They kind of want to live in 2005 forever,” Bielema said.
When asked to elaborate, Bielema doubled down.
“Well, I think I just made the headline, right?” he said. “When (the transfer portal and NIL) came into college football, the whole world changed. It’s overly obvious to say that, but I think anything that predates that is just a different time in college football. It just is.”
This wasn’t Bielema’s first shot at the SEC this month. After Nick Saban said national championships don’t define a conference’s strength and instead pointed to the depth of talent across a league, Bielema reposted a clip of Saban’s comments alongside screenshots of Illinois’ bowl wins over South Carolina and Tennessee in each of the past two seasons.

Indiana head coach Curt Cignetti also summed up the SEC (and the Big Ten) well on Thursday.

“We don’t run a hype machine up here in the Midwest,” Cignetti said. “We believe everything’s earned, not given. And when we fall short, we say we fell short. We don’t cry a river, whine and complain. And that’s why we’re the best.”

Skull Session: Ohio Stadium Has New Turf, Bret Bielema and Curt Cignetti Fire Shots at the SEC, and Ryan Day Wants the Buckeyes to Leave a Legacy Behind This Year
Ohio Stadium has new turf, Bret Bielema and Curt Cignetti fire shots at the SEC, and Ryan Day wants the Buckeyes to leave behind a legacy in 2026.
COURSE WE’LL HAVE A LOOK. Ohio State has a new playing surface in the Horseshoe.
ABC6’s Cameron Fontana shared video on Thursday showing the Buckeyes’ new turf at Ohio Stadium as it was being installed and rolled out with the sun still rising over Columbus.

Ohio State announced earlier this summer that it planned to install new turf in the Shoe before the 2026 season. The surface features Shaw Sports Turf’s Forge Series system — “a system-level product line designed to meet NFL standards, featuring Game ON technology that integrates markings directly into the turf,” according to a school news release.
That’s a lot of jargon.
Ryan Day used normal words in a statement.
“The new turf is a welcome upgrade to Ohio Stadium to maintain the safety and performance of our players on gamedays,” he said.
If it looks good, feels good and plays good — then I’m good.
I look forward to seeing it in person when Ohio State opens the season against Ball State at home on Sept. 5. We’ll get plenty of chances to see the Buckeyes break it in when they’re up 100-0 in the second half.

Kyle Whittingham Wants Ohio State-Michigan Rivalry to Be Intense, Not Fueled by Hatred: “I Don’t Think There’s Any Place for That Personally”
Hate is a strong word — and not one Kyle Whittingham wants to use to describe his feelings for Ohio State.
Speaking at Big Ten Media Days on Thursday, the Wolverines’ new head coach said the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry should be intense and emotional, but not rooted in hatred.
“I’ve learned how intense that rivalry is and how important the game is,” Whittingham said. “Hate is a strong word, but I want to win that game as badly as anybody in Ann Arbor.”
Just sayin': You have to hate those fucking lying cheaters.

Those fucking cunts DUCKED an epic beating by lying in face of a global pandemic and then blatantly cheated and compromised the integrity of the game.
Fuck them now, fuck them next year, fuck them forever and ever.
Whittingham is probably a good guy but fuck him forever too for joining these cheating assclowns.

I was sold when Bobby Carpenter said he was helping work out some of the young players and when Cincere put his hands in his chest it felt different
