Why has it never come up that this is a man playing a woman's sport and he should not be allowed to. It seems the only focus is the Soviet jail time but it is my understanding that he was even in a male prison there. In any case, I think this needs to be brought out along with all the other sickos doing it.
Check out the Adam's apple in that profile shot.
What a difference facing down a 9-year prison sentence in Russia makes:
Prior to the tip, Griner and her teammates stood for the national anthem, and the No. 1 pick of the 2013 WNBA Draft received a loud ovation from the home crowd as she was introduced.
"Hearing the national anthem, it definitely hit different," Griner said. "It’s like when you go for the Olympics, you’re sitting there, about to get gold put on your neck, the flags are going up, and the anthem is playing, it just hits different.
"Being here today ... it means a lot."
"You must show them"... all that time locked up in Russia, yea our anthem will definitely "hit different"
Good job dude.
