For a good hate read, I sometimes go to deadspin to find-out what the lunatics
are saying. I just knew they'd have a great take on this story:

America has failed Brittney Griner
Why does one of the best basketball players in history have to play ball in Russia anyway?

https://deadspin.com/america-has-failed-brittney-griner-1848615381

------------------------

"One of the best?" Will concede that there is a possibility that she is in the top 1,000,000
of the greatest basketball players. Maybe. But we 'failed' her. What a shame. We're
terrible.

Hey, they should have a bake sale to pay for their salaries!
Or maybe...maybe...sell some tickets to their games? That would
get them a better salary.

What seems to be missing in all of the BG reporting is whether she
routinely used hashish/cannabis oil. If it is illegal in Russia she
needs to obey their laws. I feel bad for her, but she needs to act
responsibly.
