I feel like league execs need to video record themselves saying the potential new sponsored name several times before inking future sponsorship deals.

Also, avoiding league sponsors is one thing U.S. sports leagues get right (unless they don’t have a choice and there’s some prohibition on it).

Article by Melanie Anzidei and Ali Pelit

“The National Women’s Soccer League’s four-person executive committee voted to give commissioner Jessica Berman a three-year contract extension, according to sources briefed on the negotiations.

The committee retained the vote because they were concerned it would not pass in front of the full 16-team board of governors, according to the sources, who said it was not unanimous. The deal is not yet final.”

As Kashmir highlights, it’s likely this jerk of a passenger will get to pay for the cost of the diversion (I certainly hope that’s the case).

Do yourself a favor and read about this wholesome connection…after reading a wild story of entitlement witnessed by both that is the indirect reason for the connection.

“A study, published…in the New England Journal of Medicine, showed that last season’s 2024–2025 mRNA COVID vaccines reduced people’s risk of emergency department visits by 29%, their risk of hospitalizations by 39% & their risk of death by 64%”

Benefits were seen even absent any risk factors.

A’ja Wilson’s fadeaway jumper to win Game 3 is instantly iconic plays, a shot that little girls, and boys, will spend hours in their driveways and backyards trying to recreate.

It also was a a slap-in-the-face, pour-water-on-your-head reminder of how lucky we are to be watching her in her prime.
