Sounds like the boycott of the World Cup may be getting larger, and existential!

The plans to sell stakes in the World Cup to Trump-aligned parties isn't going over very well.

In fact, it might kill the entire process.  UEFA is ready to boycott.

And without UEFA, there is no World Cup.  Any sane thought of a top tier of the World Cup would have 13 European countries, Brazil, Argentina, and Morocco.  And that's IT.

If UEFA actually considers a boycott of the World Cup, that's it and full stop.

The only way you stop this, though, is to drum the Trump INFANTino out of the equation.

Otherwise, soccer is corrupt enough that he would go through with it without question.

Sports To The Right, Part Three: The WNBA is dead in five years, and walking back on No Hate ensures it.

A recent WNBA game in Seattle against the Indiana Fever was the last straw.

The brass of the WNBA (and probably of the NBA as well) is transphobic.

Two MAGA jackasses/whores went in support of Sophie Cunningham's transphobic bullshittery (forgetting everything I've said about the transphobic women's sports movement), and they were openly challenged and confronted by no less than the co-owner of the Seattle Storm Celeste Keaton.

Keaton has been banned from all home games by the league for the entire month of August.

If that doesn't tell you that the brass of the WNBA (which probably also espouses the brass of the NBA) is not only transphobic, but actively supports it's own demise (which see the goals of the right-wing Heritage Foundation, that women's sports are to be burlesque for sexual want and nothing else), I don't know what's going to.

Are there transgender players in the WNBA?  Almost certainly not, we'd have found out about them.

But the only reason the WNBA is allowed to exist comes from the fruit of the same tree:  Without "Woke", there is no WNBA.  There are no women's professional sports.

Hell, the biggest professional football league for women in this is an Arena knockoff called the Legends Football League.

Of course, that's rebranded.  What it actually IS, and used to be called, was the LINGERIE Football League.

Women have no place in this country, under women like Cuntingham, but sexual playthings, rape toys, and creation of White Rapist Male Incels.  And maybe someone needs to wake that bitch in Indiana up on that fact.

Ban me too, WNBA.  Because you're done if you don't get with the program.  You have any number of female players in your league (many of them Black, but not all) who bitches like this MAGA whore Cunningham would state were men.

Bank that!

Sports To The Right, Part Two: Caitlin Clark is about to be upstaged because she's not going to go far enough for her masters...

I could smell it the moment I saw her picture on ESPN's front page and about her being "unmissable".

Welcome to the new probable face of the WNBA, for however little long the league has left, right-wing bigoted MAGA cunt Sophie Cunningham, or, after her transphobic rant last week, I prefer to call her Cuntingham.

She has made no secret of being a loud-mouthed supposed "Christian" who hates transgenders and transgenderism.  And, in a sport where it has been made no secret that much of the recent corporate success of the sport can be traced to the fact that the largely Black and liberal sport of women's basketball in this country has been gravitated (by ESPN and other parties) around a WHITE woman from Iowa, MAGA finally has the athlete it can perfect what they started with Clark.

And Clark better understand this if she has an interest in remaining the center of women's basketball, at least in corporate, media, and political realities.

Cunningham has one thing Clark does not:  She IS good-looking enough to be the Great White MAGA Hope of (The End Of)Women's Sports.  That includes this year's Sports Illustrated annual jack-off fest.  That's rare among actual qualified women athletes (Riley Gaines, that means you're out, you cunt whore!).

Cunningham has made her presence felt on transgender athletics and misgenders them every chance she gets.

What the cunt doesn't get is that she doesn't have a job -- probably of ANY KIND -- in the America she supports.  The only reason you have a WNBA IS "woke".  And there is a massive poison pill of MAGA which has crystallized behind Caitlin Clark (and might well perfect itself behind Cunningham -- see my third post on this subject which will come tomorrow -- too late to do it tonight!).

But the edges are beginning to fray.  I am fully expecting the belief of Cunningham that the WNBA has a number of transgender players (even if it does not -- or there are no known ones)...

Sports To The Right, Part One: Another UFC jackass...

I don't think a lot of people are getting the extent to which sports themselves are gravitating towards the Right...

So here are three posts with three of today's/recent examples of such:

For the first, we go to the UFC and another "fighter" who decided to smack his bitch up:

Dateline, Nebraska:  Former UFC fighter Anthony Smith is facing three felonies in the state for wanting to run over his wife, an indictment this week charges.

Sounds like COVIDIOT-Shithead isn't doing it to just football teams...

Danica Patrick basically states that Aaron Rodgers is an emotionally-abusive twit -- saying "He leaves behind a trail of blood."

No.  Shit.  Sherlock.

It sounds like the World Cup boycott may be permanent...

The next step in INFANTino's plan to Trump-ize the World Cup is that he wants to sell a 20% stake in the tournament to corporate investors.

Trump ally/toadie Jared Kushner is involved.

Anyone who knows my stand on what comes with paying the bills understands the next thing I'm saying:  Within some degree of reason (else, the fraud that is the United States would've won this tournament), the investors will almost certainly have a say in who wins.

sigh

I think this is one of the reasons I've hard a dark fantasy of receiving an international letter from FIFA personally -- banning me from all relevant soccer events.

PS:  I will be shocked, if not stunned, if either the IOC or the LA Organizing Committee doesn't similarly ban me from the Los Angeles Games.

Two words:  They'd better.  (Or they'd better hope my situation holds that long -- I don't expect it to.)

Two related stories, both gambling:

USA Today:  DraftKings and FanDuel have already spent $72,000,000 on the midterm elections -- making gambling the third highest campaign contributor behind crypto and tech.

And, in the "no coincidences" file...

Fortune:  Gambling on sports (and this probably is only the legal handles, and does not include states which do allow Indian casinos to do sports-gambling (Wisconsin and Florida are two), nor the prediction markets which have muscled into sports-betting and can do so in states where sports-betting is illegal...) now is not only the largest entertainment method in the country at $166 billion, it outspends music, concerts, books, museums, and movies, by more than double -- combined!!  ($70 billion between the five, none above $20 billion)

The "No Shit Sherlock" File, Part Two: The Russians Are Coming...

Saw this a few days ago and am finally getting to posting it to the blog.

Putin's bitch gets his wish -- the Russians are allowed back in the Olympic Trump Transphobe Games.  Just in time for Los Angeles.

The "No Shit Sherlock" file, Part One... The Heritage Foundation lets it slip...

Now that the Supreme Court has gone full bigot and transgender athletes can be banned part and parcel, the Heritage Foundation lets it slip.

They openly WANT the end of women's and girls' sports -- stating that destroying Title IX is necessary to protect women's "fertility".

Just waiting, at that point, for the calls of execution of the childless cat ladies, the sterile, and those women too old to have children and never had one.

Also note:  Cheerleading is fine.  They need to have women burlesque for the entertainment of high-testosterone boys and men who are willing to exploit fertility.

Super Bowl $eahawk$: Did Tom Brady throw Super Bowl LX?

I'm not going to attribute the Tweet for which I found, but go to the direct source instead.  The indirect source is completely shitlisted.

However, the Awful Announcing blog has made a charge that Tom Brady may well have thrown Super Bowl LX to the Seahawks.

Their source?  Seattle head coach Mike MacDonald -- on today's The Dan Patrick Show:

MacDonald, at the celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe, acknowledges that someone with a "conflict of interest" aided MacDonald and the Seahawks in their preparations to defeat the Patriots last February.

That said, there are two MAJOR problems:

That would be a level of betrayal on a scale even beyond Brett Favre and the Packers or Calahan and the Raiders to aid Gruden and the Buccaneers.

The larger problem, though, appears to be Tom Brady's involvement with FOX Sports, and that leading to a possibility that the NFL themselves might've been involved in tampering through Brady passing information to the Seahawks.

And Brady's involvement as a part-owner of the Raiders -- the Raiders getting the Seahawks' offensive coordinator as their new head coach.

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM......
