I guarantee the @NWSL / @WNBA pre-game runway content is gonna be a massive marketing opportunity. Loving see my @NBA pals doing it, but the women do it way better
As a thought exercise: if you knew nothing and I told you there was a sport that had effectively popularized and monetized the "fashion runway" of athletes before a match... Wouldn't it be surprising to learn it was the men (of the NBA)?
Given how female models absolutely dominate the culture (can you name a single male model other than Zoolander?) and how much more women produce/consume on social--This is a goldmine

Again, investing in women's sports is going to seem OBVIOUS in a decade, these are just receipts
And you can be SURE the @weareangelcity pregame fits and content will be on point 👈 fashion brands / shoppers should be in the DMs of every athlete in the @NWSL @WNBA with free clothes and brand deals

End this idea that diversity overrides merit.

Our gameplan is simple: hire the best people we can, intentionally attracting diverse backgrounds and optimizing for potential -- not just experience.

Then take that team and be the best.

This is the way.
Lucky to have a founding partner like @katelin_cruse who roadmapped our rather unique hiring plan for operating partners (and then open-sourced it). @sevensevensix hasn't launched yet + we had 1,100 applicants, 83% self-identifying as underrepresented.

And I'm not the only business leader who believes that genuine DEI work is not b/c it's trendy or politically correct—it's because we want to absolutely fucking win.

This is personal for a lot of people. We've never seen anything like this.

💡 @andrewrsorkin you framed it right - that's the sentiment, the public doing what they feel has been done to them by institutions. This is an echo of what we've seen social media enable the public to challenge institutions for the last decade.
And it's a perfect storm at a time when lots of people are hurting, interest rates are so low, inescapable student loan debts loom, and every major institution has caught Ls during a /global pandemic/ over the last year. This is something to believe in.
And if enough people believe in it, it actually can manifest reality. The institutional "security" isn't coming from the top, it's coming from the ground up. It's unprecedented at this scale, but we're tribal creatures, so it's more natural than we realize.

I've lived a far from perfect life, just tried to be on the right side of history, tried to give more than I took, tried to be a little better from each mistake.

Everyone is figuring it out as they go.
I'm all good btw! Had a heart to heart with a founder in the @sevensevensix portfolio and wanted to repeat my words here on Twitter. Everyone can use a bump!
Being a CEO is a really lonely job, especially when the success, survival of the business is far from certain.
