Those were hilarious! I can only imagine what it must have been like waiting in line for Southwest (as well as the looks of those around them)!  |

Why block them? That doesn't make any sense to me unless it was a group who hated the WNBA. This league needs anybody that will support it. |

This is the comment I just posted on their blog:
| Quote: |
It seems a little extreme on the WNBA’s part, as they can choose to simply not follow you back. Maybe it’s got something to do with endorsement (or not) of something with their name on it.
However, making a huge fuss and trying to organize a campaign may backfire in that it may help justify their reason to distance themselves from you. Especially because technically they “blocked” you. “Ban” is definitely inflammatory; they didn’t ban you from Twitter. Heck, they didn’t even actually block you from reading the tweets. They have a public account. There are other ways to get that info. Log out. Subscribe by RSS. |

They started following me a while back and I looked up their site. They are NOT fans, the whole point (what was written at that time, don't know what it says now) was exactly that. One of those, "I don't like it, so it shouldn't exist" things, not snark and sarcasm like I originally thought.
I don't know if they're trying to switch up since people are just blocking them, but that's exactly what the purpose of the site was 2 weeks ago (or whenever I joined). If they stick with the a new approach, more power to them. But I can't blame them for blocking em. |

Yeah, I'm thinking along the same lines. And the blog isn't very original at all.
That's the whole point of the "blocking" mechanism, and every Twitter use has that right - to stop the trolls, flamers, and whoever else from bringing you down with their negativity.
But, they can definitely view the WNBA twitter updates through public means, so I really don't see what the big deal is?! |

I'll first point out that STHs are the most likely fans to be following you on Twitter. I can understand that this aspect of being on a professional sports team may not be your favorite, but would you say that directly to a fan? Or a reporter?
And, um, at least you're on a WNBA team (riding the bench, such as you are).

Wow, very disappointing.  |
Ditto. Those STH keep her sorry ass employed during the summer months. It's not like they asked her to go to visit a compost heap._________________ "An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity." --MLK, Jr

| She seems like a malcontent all around. Earlier she complained about Kid's day, standing in line, and a fellow teammates father not knowing she plays for the Sky. In her defense I don't think she's complaining about STHs more so the location. Whatevas.

If she's a malcontent, cut her and bring in someone who appreciates the opportunity. Her bitching on Twitter about having to attend STH events isn't helping her or the team._________________ "An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity." --MLK, Jr

Kristen Mann!
thing is, most of the Mystics STHers are still at the STH event at the National Zoo (scavenger hunt with players, lunch, beautiful setting....all good). I didn't get to go to the event this year.
When the fans there get back and read what KM said, they will be even more pissed off than I am...I'd bet on it.
most of the Styx players are GREAT with the fans. Kristen's remarks really reflect negatively on the team. VERY STUPID of her!  |
Well, if it helps, she is the only Mystic on Twitter that I don't follow -- I am not a fan of hers, and could care less what she says. That said, she does need to grow up -- perhaps she could take some lessons from Nikki Blue, who remains supportive of her teammates, despite being personally frustrated by her lack of playing time.

Too bad Mystics management didn't her about this earlier,
"Kristen, you don't need to show up at the Zoo after all.
Or practice tomorrow..."
