WNBA players are demanding pay raises despite their women’s professional basketball league losing millions yearly. Despite this, Gatorade decided to sponsor the league with a new advertising campaign called ‘Let Her Cook.’ Seriously, did no one catch the double-meaning here? Of course, critics of the WNBA couldn’t help but laugh that these entitled, whiny players might be of better service in the kitchen.
The Middle Aged Baby (@MiddleAgedBaby2) ~ @Gatorade coming in with an absolutely killer marketing campaign to rev up interest in the WNBA.
It's bold! It's courageous! And gosh darn it, it's about time some company took the initiative!
Well done, gentlemen!
Agreed ... LET HER COOK!
Bet105 (@bet_105) ~ Gatorade really set the WNBA back 30 years with their new "Let Her Cook" campaign. 😂
Scottergate (@Scottergate) ~ {Replying to @bet_105} Would've been funny if it was an apron instead of a towel.
Futurist™ (@americasgreat) ~ Gatorade tells WNBA players to get back to the kitchen where they belong and cook. A noble suggestion since they are unhappy with their pay. 🤣🤣🤣
Posters say feminism has gone so far to the left it’s now back to where it started. They suggest women should find empowerment in the kitchen.
Mark Scannell (@MFScannell) ~ With how feminist the WNBA is, are they now saying women belong in the kitchen?
They need to make sure they look their best while they're cookin' in the kitchen, too ... to make a good impression just in case we pop in to take a look.
J ( @SilkyJones1988 ) ~ Feminism comes full circle.
Alex The Welder (@Pugo89) ~ I very rarely agree with the WNBA, but I'm all for them cooking again! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brittney Griner will probably be whipping up a pan of hash brownies, don'tcha know.
One poster says the new players’ guide just dropped.

GigglesNBits (@NobodysThought2) ~ The best part is that the MVP for the WNBA championship gets gifted a stove instead of a car.
Carlos (@CarlosInSD) ~ These women probably can't even make a grilled cheese sandwich.
Wicked Messenger (@TedDeLarge) ~ That's definitely beyond her skill set, but I do have a suggestion.
John Kim (@johnkim77) ~ LOL ... @Gatorade set women back 50 years with this ad. Back to the kitchen, let her cook.
