The Toronto Tempo debuted a new “non-binary” mascot ahead of their WNBA matchup with the Indiana Fever in an apparent swipe at controversial star Sophie Cunningham.
The Tempo revealed Dez, a butch, non-binary Borealis Blue Snapping Turtle who uses she/they pronouns and “has a fondness for soft shell tacos,” the team said in an Tuesday announcement unveiling the new mascot.
Dez also has a partner in crime, anthropomorphic arctic hare named Dot who uses standard she/her pronouns.

This is the Bee, right?
It they think a sexless mascot is going to intimidate Sophie Cunningham, they need to go back to the drawing boards.
Nah, we don’t want to piss off our fans and cause a chunk of the audience to quit watching.
Idiots.
Go woke, go broke. They must not have been paying attention to all of the kneeling by NFL players in 2020.
Toronto is famous for it’s soft shelled tacos?
Don't we all...
Something tells me the WNBA is too small of a forum for her. Since she’s so comfy in the limelight there’s gotta be other opportunities available than that circus. Let Kaitlyn fight her own battles.
“soft shelled tacos” — I’m guessing it’s an allusion to female private parts.
Sophie has more class than All of Canada.
Somehow Snapping is appropriate…..
At first I thought “Wow, those Canooks didn’t get the Brit sense of humour or satire at all”. Then I realized that it’s Toronto and their lack of humor comes from a snail and frog diet. Then I wondered “Why is there a Canadian team in a USA league?” I guess they only hate us when they don’t want something we have.
Maybe the Sophie finger of fate smite them a mighty blow.
May….
A real turtle will suck in all its appendages.
Just wait until men start dunking on them and sport becomes futility.
The Tempo are 11-25. Shut up and dribble
“Something tells me the WNBA is too small of a forum for her. Since she’s so comfy in the limelight there’s gotta be other opportunities available than that circus.”
I saw a report that she has $5 million from endorsements, salary etc.Live long and prosper Miss Sophie!
Stephanie will probably give it a big hug and pose for pictures with it.
Can’t allow decency and common sense.
