Griner leave the USA?

It’s an exact comparison because freedom of speech does not protect someone when they’re operating on behalf of an organization (like a WNBA franchise).
Or find productive ways to make change that benefits the majority of people.
Her getting the Olympic nod over CC was insane then and even more stupid now
What the phuq are you talking about? Is the WNBA upset with Griner? You are clueless.
Maybe go back and read the thread…it might help you keep up.
You mean the article from 4 months ago that states that Griner has changed her mind on the National Anthem and is a proud American? You are either a troll or an idiot. I assume this is a trolling thread. It's sad what this site has become.
No fake, but Griner changed her tune when she needed the USA. This is common in my opinion of people hating on the US and forgetting we have the best system in the world. Not perfect, but still the best overall.
This is an AI article based falsehood. Griner never said that and has never been reported on by any human I've seen related to this
No it was a response…somebody posted that they didn’t like Griner taking a knee during the anthem and someone else brought up freedom of speech…my response was that when you work for an organization, you don’t have freedom of speech protection. It’s not a trolling account nor am I an idiot…I was pointing out a fact and nothing else.
Pretty much booted out of the league I guess could be considered punished. But the point is, if the team wanted to take action against him, freedom of speech wouldn’t protect him.
I think she has actually done things to transition to a guy. There's stories about removing female parts. She's asking to be called "pops" when her and her partner have their baby. I saw that interview myself.
I'm not making a political statement or trying to make an argument. This is just what I've seen or heard that she might be transitioning.
You aren’t making sense. Did the NFL punish him? Pro athletes are not the same as a typical corporate employee. Just stop.
Why are pro athletes not the same? They work for an organization and if the organization doesn’t want them to say certain things, then freedom of speech doesn’t protect them. And since he ended up being blackballed and never got another job, then yeah, I’d say they punished him. If this is not making sense to you, then maybe I should type slower so you can follow it.
She better be careful what country she'd go to. Even tho the US might be chippy we wont throw you in jail for your beliefs. Most of the time.
DID YOU? 2nd paragraph says, and I quote: I’m not going to be out there for the National Anthem.:
She has since changed her tune after getting locked up in Russia.
And where does it state that, “She is threatening to leave USA because she gets no respect”? That was your initial claim.
Ok, the article I listed did not say this. But this article DID say this.

However, with a website of dhtavern, it may be fake. Take it for what it is worth.......
lol. Be better than that man.
Well thought out response, almost as intelligent as the rest of your responses.
the wnba is more clicky than high school. uconn fans, lgbtq fans, blm fans, and the real wbna fans; you do not see this in any other professional league.
It is front and center on the tshirts the coaches wear every game and the almost mob like mentality of cheering/taking pleasure in physically confronting cc.
It's very trumpian: make the fealty pledge and you are safe.
You must be new to paying attention to sports. This exists in ever sport, minus your made up bit about everyone want to pick on Caitlin.
She received almost 20% of all flagrant fouls. Yeah, she was more than picked on.
Why wouldn’t you body her hard…seems like a good strategy to handle a player like her.
Yeah, body her but flagrant fouls aren't bodying her, they are taking dirty shots.
It was 6 flagrant fouls...most of which were just over aggressive basketball.
6 in 40 games is not like they are beating the shit out her.
4 of which came from one team....so 2 from everyone else.
