The WNBA is having a moment. Viewership is up. Attendance for this year's WNBA All-Star Game surpassed the NBA's All-Star Game. Games and events can be viewed in a record number of places, from broadcast to cable and streaming. And just this week, Angel Reese of the Atlanta Dream set a single-game record. But the stories about the WNBA capturing national attention in recent weeks are about none of that. Instead, the focus has been on two retired NBA players, including Enes Kanter Freedom, who showed up courtside at an August 23 Chicago Sky–Indiana Fever game wearing a T-shirt that said "Woman: noun. adult human female."“I don't believe that he's being genuine in any realm, in order to create this mass hysteria of sorts for an issue that's actually simply a non-issue,” says Angela Perry, a WNBA content creator, tells The Intercept Briefing. “There are no trans women in the WNBA; there are none attempting to be in the WNBA.”This week on The Intercept Briefing podcast, host Jessica Washington speaks to Perry and journalist Katelyn Burns about how the premier women's professional basketball league has found itself at the center of a right-wing manufactured panic.“The right has made such hay out of trans women in women's sports that they need to keep inventing controversies in order to keep this issue front of mind,” says Burns who writes for the independent newsletter Burns Notice and co-hosts the Cancel Me, Daddy podcast. “We have a midterm election coming up, and to be frank with you, the only thing that the right has done besides terrorizing immigrants is banning trans women from women's sports. It's at the center of almost all of their policies,” continues Burns. “They are inventing controversies about trans people in sports where there are no trans people involved.”“This is about women in general. They're already talking about not wanting women to have the right to vote,” says Perry. “This isn't just about sports. There's a political party trying to scale us back to what they perceive was a time where things were better. But really, it was when women were more controlled.”“The bigger issue is that the people who think that they're protected, it's always going to get to the protected class eventually,” warns Perry. “Right now, the focus is trans, and people think they're safe because ‘I'm not trans. I'm a cis woman and I'm protected.' But it will impact you.”For more, listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you listen.Full transcript: https://interc.pt/3UXTwXsKeep our investigations free and fearless at theintercept.com/join.

Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and they explain why Tennessee's struggles only crank up the pressure on the Jets to win Week 1. With Flott getting beaten repeatedly and Garrett Wilson waiting in the opener, the Jets could have a matchup they need to exploit. Shaun and Tiki also debate Geno Smith's leash, what Cade Klubnik must prove in the preseason, and why Aaron Glenn's defense could determine whether the Jets finally show real progress. Plus, Shaun argues Yankee Stadium is getting shafted by MLB's All-Star Game rotation, and the guys question why Giants legend and Hall of Famer Harry Carson still hasn't had his number retired.

Yes, there was an All-Star game in Major League Baseball in 1917. In fact, before the All-Star Game became a regular fixture on the baseball calendar in 1933, it wasn't unusual to see some sort of All-Star game, or an exhibition game featuring stars from around baseball. But this game, in 1917, was different. It was staged to honor a baseball giant, Tim Murnane, who not only played the game, but was a manager, an umpire, an executive and a baseball journalist. After he left the diamond behind, Murnane created his own newsletter, "The Boston Referee." It became a must-read for baseball fans and it wasn't too long before the "Boston Globe," scooped up Murnane and he became a sports editor for the legendary newspaper. Years later, Murnane died suddenly at a theatre. Everyone around the sport (and elsewhere) was saddened and wanted to help his family. The Red Sox and many from the baseball world arranged a game to help raise money for Murnane's family. Murnane meant so much to so many that they played the game during the season. Stars left their teams to play in the middle of a pennant race. Tris Speaker, Shoeless Joe Jackson, Ty Cobb, and several others made their way to Fenway Park to take part. On this episode of Sports' Forgotten Heroes, Scott D. Reich, author of the new book, "One Day in September," joins the show for a look back at a very special edition of a baseball All-Star game.

Snyder hosts as Dave and Bohmbach take on Gabe Pulver and Jamie Hirsh from the Menschwarmers podcast in a game featuring Jewish Sports Quarterly All-Stars. Gabe names Bohmbach a “Mike Jacobs All-Star” (sounds Jewish but isn't), along with hammer toss champ Ethan Katzberg. In the first quarter, Luks reveals Bob Geldof's unknown child, Zach, and Gabe recalls Charles Barkley racing Dick Bavetta. During a second-quarter Missing Link, Gabe remembers Remember the Titans, and guesses that the Jewish link might somehow be related to papal names. In halftime, we learn that Nemo's dad came up with the theory of relativity, and that the star of a Fish Called Wanda could have been Jamie Lee …Schwartz??? The third quarter sees both teams go deep in the very shallow pool of Jewish Quarterbacks, as the Menschwarmers unwrap the kimono on Scott Zolak, and query (quite un-Jewishly, I might add) that if Charlie Whitehurst was clipboard Jesus, was his dad David “clipboard God”? In a very Luks moment, David makes a pop culture reference to Allan Sherman, who did “Harvey and Sheila.” The Menschwarmers answer at least two questions correctly because of Jewish Geography, and while kibbitzing in the fourth quarter, David shares that, contrary to popular belief, he was not at the 1946 All-Star Game, because it was his Bar Mitzvah. No one gets Snyder's clue on the last question, and we end by exchanging misdelivered mail. #philiproth #riseball #demardiedforthis #Jewishgeography #MichaelJordon #LuksisBostonPops *For a glossary of Jewish terms and phrases used in this episode, go to https://tinyurl.com/Menschwarmers https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

Hour 1 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Joe said logically the Pirates should sell but our hearts wants them to buy! BUY OR SELL? Joe thinks the biggest story in Pittsburgh sports today is the sudden decline of Paul Skenes! The Pirates are 5-10 since the All-Star Game. They are in the range of teams that should sell. This is depressing.
The Pirates are 5-10 since the All-Star Game. They are in the range of teams that should sell. This is depressing. The Yankees got Luis Garcia, the Dodgers acquired Skubal, and the Phillies traded for Luis Arraez. Joe doesn't think Ben Cherington will make a big move.

RUNDOWN Mitch and Hotshot Scott open Episode 391 by previewing football season for patrons before a laugh about Scott's father-in-law hijacking the family's evening. They hit the Mariners' 100-game .500 mark, reminisce about the Big Red Machine, then shift to the World Cup, where both stayed hooked long after Team USA's exit. Mitch and Scott rave about teenage phenom Lamine Yamal, poke fun at FIFA's halftime show, preview Seahawks camp, Ryan Fox's British Open win, and Bryson DeChambeau's penalty. Ray Roberts and Mitch discuss Seattle's new ownership, why the defending Super Bowl champs still seem overlooked, and what the Seahawks gained—and lost—this offseason. Roberts also shares hilarious training camp stories, from sneaking home to sleep in his own bed to finally meeting childhood hero Ed "Too Tall" Jones, the player who inspired him to wear No. 72. Mitch, Joe Doyle, and Brady Farkas break down another uneven Mariners series as Seattle reaches the 100-game mark at 50-50. They argue Dan Wilson has become an unfair scapegoat for a flawed roster, praise Cole Young's continued rise, and discuss Julio Rodríguez's return, Colt Emerson's progress, and looming roster decisions. Mitch welcomes three beat reporters who know the Mariners' top draft picks better than anyone. Sam Sklar breaks down first-round slugger Ace Reese, Koki Riley explains why LSU outfielder Jake Brown could become a second-round steal, and Scott Springer profiles Cincinnati right-hander Nathan Taylor, whose bulldog mentality and dominant slider made him one of the draft's best values.
