Big deal. Basketball...even women’s basketball...is a contact sport.

I enjoy the W, and Clark and Aja Wilson and Paige Bueckers are my favorite players to watch, but the media is making every foul into World War 3. The hysteria is from people who discovered the W 5 minutes ago and are suddenly experts.

Been watching basketball for 50+ years, and what the WNBA plays barely qualifies. It's not that they have physical play - it's that the games are overloaded with cheap shots that are non-basketball plays. Easy ejections in other leagues

Most lack the skill to take out their frustrations ny playing better/harder and just pointing to the scoreboard, and even the fights are, well...girl fights. Just a bunch of shoving and hair pulling.

Basically, it's roller derby with a ball.
