Under the umbrella of disingenuous bullshit, you can fuck right off with this statement. If you truly believed the queer community is welcome in hockey, you’d wear the shirt. You do not get to have it both ways. Jesus is not impressed. Nobody is asking you to fuck a dude in the name of inclusion. It’s a t-shirt.

1. I feel it’s that time of year when I really need to spell out how incredible the Shey Peddy story is for everyone again. This is going to be a long thread, so hang tight. 2. After graduating from Temple, Peddy was selected 23rd in the 2012 draft by the Sky. But Sloot, Epiphanny Prince, and the GOAT Penicheiro were the PGs on the roster, so she was cut early in training camp.

Stop glamorizing “the grind” and start glamorizing getting 7+ hours of sleep at night, having healthy relationships, feeling safe at work, taking sick days, being paid a living wage, working hard when you’re at work, boundaries, and self-caring your way to success.

THREAD ALERT

1. Tonight, Baylor vs. Iowa & Notre Dame vs. Stanford will face off for a chance to join Oregon and UConn in the Final Four. All four teams have female head coaches, & 3 of 4 (Iowa, ND, Stanford) have all-female coaching staffs -- a rarity in women’s basketball. 2. Last month, I went to South Bend to profile Muffet McGraw and her all-female staff. It’s been 8 seasons since she had a male coach on her staff. When I asked her whether she would ever hire a male assistant coach again, she said unequivocally, “No.” thinkprogress.org/this-top-women…

The sports/politics world is so wild right now I can't keep up with the sports stories posted on TP! But there are many good ones. #thread From @MelsLien: How the NFL sold patriotism to the U.S. military for millions thinkprogress.org/nfl-dod-nation… #takeAknee
