    Once upon a time, Sports Illustrated was a big thing with millions of subscribers who for some unknown reason were almost exclusively straight male sports fans who once a year were delighted to have the annual swimsuit edition show up at the mailbox featuring some of the hottest women on the planet. I'm guessing that their remaining subscribers and website visitors are still largely straight sports loving males. Apparently, there is a huge untapped group of lesbians who are jonesing on seeing the women of the WNBA. Who knew. One is not like the other.






    The only sportswoman more insufferable than this bunch is Megan Rapinoe.

    One of the WNBA’s top players hailed the issue as a victory for social justice, or something, in a word salad.

    “We represent a variety of things: of course women, women of color, members of the LGBTQIA2+ community and much more … The [Swimsuit] issue for so many years has been iconic and has represented a lot for women,” declared Sue Bird. “Now you are seeing an evolution in what that can mean and what that can look like, and I think the WNBA players being a part of that is what makes it special. There is no better group of women to showcase that evolution.”

    I’m down for the one on the ground. She wouldn’t really even have to move much. But the other mules need to go first.

    And with that. ASU had no other choice than to create the KRUNKiiiiite school of journalism.

    I was hoping for Lizzo.
