WNBA's Brittney Griner got herself arrested for stupidly bringing cannabis oil into Russia.
If you haven't been paying close attention to the WNBA ... well, you're no different than 99.9 percent of the rest of the world. The only time the sport seems to make the news is when Caitlin Clark, the only superstar the league has, does something amazing or when one of its other players (usually Angel Reese) does something horrible.
But since you haven't been paying attention, here's a quick recap. In a recent game between Reese's Chicago Sky and Clark's Indiana Fever, Clark committed a hard foul on Reese after Reese had fouled one of Clark's teammates, even though that first foul wasn't called. No big deal, it happens in sports all the time. Both players even said so after the game.
At least, it was no big deal until the WNBA decided to make it one.
The league announced that it was launching an investigation into alleged racist comments from fans directed at Reese after the on-court scuffle. The WNBA, both teams, and the players' association all issued the usual pablum ('We condemn racism of any kind, blah, blah, blah ...') in promising to 'look into the matter.'
There's only one problem. It likely never happened. None of the players or coaches on the teams said that they heard anything, no fans have come forward to announce what remarks were made, and in a modern sports league where there are cameras everywhere, there is no video of any racist comments from the crowd.
If this sounds a lot like pretty much every other race hoax in sports, that's because it probably is.
But then something REALLY interesting happened in the WNBA a couple of nights ago. (And that's the first time anyone, anywhere, has ever written that sentence.)
Brittney Griner -- who Joe Biden once traded an international killer and arms dealer for -- of the Atlanta Dream was playing against Clark's Fever, and, depending on which team you were rooting for, either Griner elbowed Clark in the face or Clark flopped. Griner was called for a foul and went to the bench, where she was caught on film saying some pretty repulsive things about Clark. Watch:
Riley Gaines (@Riley_Gaines_) ~ Brittney Griner appeared to call Caitlin Clark “trash” and a “f***ing white girl” after fouling out last night. Just a reminder: this is who we traded for the Russian Merchant of Death. Now, imagine if Clark had said the inverse.

Just Shane (@JustSha77933233) ~ {Replying to @Riley_Gaines_} And @wnba won't do a thing about it or an investigation. They will tell fans to boo less. Absolute retards.
Wow. That's pretty bad and more than a little racist-y.
Well, in truth ... while it certainly is "racist-y," White America just yawned because ... well ... this is what low-life racists do. We just ignore them and move on. But, ya gotta admit - the double-standards are astonishing.
Needless to say, the WNBA immediately launched an investigation into Griner's comments, again denouncing racism of any kind and promising to get to the bottom of the issue.
HAHAHAHA. Just kidding. The WBNA has not said a single word about Griner's racist comments from the bench.

Just Shane (@JustSha77933233) ~ {Replying to @WhitlockJason} Called it. They don't care if the target is a white player.
The silence from the league has been deafening in the days following the game (which Clark and the Fever won, by the way).
The hypocrisy is pretty blinding.
Bobby Burack (@burackbobby_) ~ I will be reaching out to the @WNBA to ask if calling Clark a “trash fucking white girl” violates its recently announced “no tolerance for racism” and “no space for hate” campaign. Will report back.
Don't hold your breath.
Lady Cougar Jackhole Diva ( @HeatHugg88 ) ~ She didn’t say cracker. 🤭
OH, HOLD ON ... YOU'RE RIGHT ... SHE DIDN'T USE THE INAPPROPRIATE "CODE WORD"! Nevermind ...
LOL. Yes, we really have to admire Griner's restraint. She also managed not to say 'mayonnaise' or 'wypipo.'
Had to look up "wypipo." ROTFLMAO! It's ebonics for "white people." They're so stupid that they can't even pronounce basic English.
MarkJ (@MarkDJ1971) ~ If a white player said this about a black player there would be hell to pay. The WNBA is so hypocritical.
We all know that there are (D)ifferent rules.
Gupperco (@Gupperco) ~ This you @ WNBA? When those white sponsors go away what will you do then?
The WNBA has sponsors? We're going to need some corroboration on that claim.
Nah, the NBA subsidizes the WNBA heavily. The WNBA is an absolute money pit and would never exist if it weren't for the NBA charity.
. (@MMoore2126) ~ Can’t believe we traded a war lord for him. Send it back.
KEITH (@keiths_pencil) ~ Send that dude back to Russia.
HIM?
[snicker, giggle, snort]
Ahem. Moving on ...
Carlos America (@CarlosBtnoCigar) ~ I still can’t believe we traded the “Merchant of Death” for this guy!
canabama (@cana_bama) ~
HEY! STOP THAT! WE SAID, 'AHEM. MOVING ON!'
M2 (@Amer1can_Barbie) ~ The balls on this chick ...
OK, we give up. That one made us spit-laugh.
MAGA Prophet (@ProphetMaga) ~ If Caitlin Clark said “f***ing black girl,” the WNBA would hold a candlelight vigil and ESPN would cover it for 7 days straight. But this? Not a word.
It would be national news, non-stop, 24/7, for at least three months, if not longer.
Not only that, but Clark would be kicked out of the league immediately.
Tony Bruno Show (@TonyBrunoShow) ~ Awaiting the sanctimonious talking heads at @ESPN and the leaders of the pathetic @WNBA to launch a probe into REAL evidence of racist hatred from a guy Biden traded for a Russian terrorist.
As we noted earlier, don't hold your breath for that. You'll turn purple.
Ultimately, the real reason most of the players in the WNBA hate Clark goes far beyond simple racism.
Joe Concha (@JoeConchaTV) ~ The WNBA is completely irrelevant without Clark, and its players seem to be the last to understand that.
Bingo.
No one ever -- EVER -- talked about the WNBA until Clark brought her star power to the league. Even now, we barely talk about it unless Clark does something amazing on the court (which she often does).
Players like Angel Reese and Brittney Griner hate her for that. They hate that she's the one who is 'putting butts in seats,' as they say, not them.
They hate her because she is better than they are. A LOT better.
But let's not be too kind to them. They hate her because she's white, too. As Griner openly demonstrated last night.
And all we will hear about that from the WNBA league office are crickets.
