Show Notes
This week is one Mega Millions Hoops Off as Liz and Karen deep dive into the money bags of the WNBA and beyond. They discuss the investment to women's sports, including Alexis Ohanian supporting franchise growth of The Sports Bra, an iconic Portland, OR, sports-viewing destination, plus the 776 Women’s-Only Track Invitational with the biggest purse in the history of that sport. Also discussed: a breakdown of who gets WNBA signature shoes and who doesn’t, including A'ja Wilson, whose on-the-court accolades and off-the-court accomplishments should make her a shoe-in for a featured piece of footwear. Plus: Karen adjusts to her Warriors not being in the playoffs (end of an era?) and Liz shares some takes from her latest playoff-series watching.
