I was expecting to find that free throws have been eliminated in women’s hoops. What’s up with the slang headline that no one understands?
Wiki:
The phrase “yas queen” is a versatile term that originated in the ballrooms of NYC, where the Black trans and queer community celebrated everything they were.0 It became popular in the last few years and is often used as an exaltation or expression of excitement.2 The term is often used in response to someone fabulous and is the equivalent of saying “fierce,” “YES” or “you do you!” However, it can also refer to someone who is looking for attention and approval for their actions, which are typically in the wrong and should face consequences.
From the headline and the excerpted sentence, I am only confused.
In the end, professional athletes profit from their entertainment value, and not directly from their athletic ability. They’re a type of entertainer, like an actor or a dancer or a clown. I imagine that athletes who don’t grasp this would become resentful.
Wait, are you telling me that women play basketball?
