Watching them in-person as they’re thrashing us 😁

BascoVanVeli:
Is the WNBA app free?

Nope

The WNBA app will stream all three D’Tigress WNBA friendlies for free..

One man called me and said can you help this boy, His mom reached out to the Pastor that the boy has spiritual problems from village. He has a Bachelors and PhD from one of the University of California systems, he has interned at Apple and Intel. He cant get a job in 2yrs. He is a US citizen as well

I didnt know how to advise him cos me sef I no get PhD, I no even know what to tell him. Last I heard he went for a Post doctoral Fellowship

Oracle laid off 30,000 people 3 weeks ago, Meta and Amazon are preparing for their own mass layoff. Maybe last last na content creator all of us go become

Dont be shocked when you see me dancing on youtube and screaming like and Subscribe

Your last sentence got me rolling 🤣😂😂🤣🤣

But, seriously, it’s unbelievable that someone with those credentials from Apple and Intel, yet struggle to find a decent job for that long! That would have been unthinkable only 5-6 years ago.

True true, make person begin learn carpenter work or plumbing work because those areas won’t be impacted by automation or AI for a long time. In fact, here in southern Cali, many plumbers or even electricians earn around $70-$100 per hour, more than many doctors, lawyers etc

Happy France is the last game. If we get the needed result in our first two games we'll play France a lot more relaxed.

Omo, FIBA schedulers like our team sha, because we also got the same “luck” during the WC qualifiers, when our last two games were vs France and Germany

The present entry-level job market, in the US, is the worst in the last 37 years! Right now, for the first time ever, a recent college graduate is more likely to be unemployed than other categories of adults.

You gotta blame increased corporate use of AI, and other aggressive cost-cutting measures for the entry level job apocalypse

The FIBA Women’s World Cup partial fixture list has been released. What remains are the actual tip off times. D’Tigress games are as follows:

September 4, 2026: Korea v Nigeria
September 5, 2026: Nigeria v Hungary
September 7, 2026: Nigeria v France

bisqit:
I've they finished paying maresca

😂😂

Lana1:
That will only make things look worse for Chelsea if that happens and they still couldn't finish 6th.

Cant use 5th as a back door to enter UCL. Still can't climb in through the ceiling from 6th place

IKR! It would be our worst league performance since 2023..

Liam Rosenior will receive a £4 million exit pay…

Well, that was quick 😅😮‍💨

As things stand, if Aston Villa finish 5th in the league AND win the Europa League, Brighton will qualify for next season’s UCL if Brighton finish in 6th 😮‍💨

carbonado:
...lol....

We got our work cut out for us 🤣

Hungary, Korea, Nigeria and France in group B

We are in the same group with France 😁

BascoVanVeli:
It's not easy

Her full stretch no be here 😁

Atiku is a perpetual political liability, who's impatient and lacks political strategic reasoning: impatience & supremacist tendencies have cost him his chances to Nigeria's presidency.

The only way out is RETIREMENT...

Aliyah Boston has also joined the Supermax train.

She signed a four-year, $6.3 million deal with the Indiana Fever, which is the most lucrative in WNBA history!

She will earn $1 million this year, then $1.7 million in each of the following three years 💰

BascoVanVeli:
Michelle Onyiah signs training camp contract with the Liberty

Going by her stats at Berkeley, especially shooting 54% from the field, I believe she will eventually move from training contract to permanent contract.

TheSuperNerd:
Another one that will shine for us in time. Like Basco said, WNBA things kept her out of the roster. Boy, I am so excited for our D'Tigresses' present and future.

Even Musa Murjanatu keeps proving herself in France. Makes the Best 5 of the French league for the 3rd season in a row.

https://x.com/i/status/2044885605864161643

Right. It’s my hope that Musa would be signed by a WNBA team in the near future, because she is that good

Later, haters will say we “have no history” 🤣

Off topic:

I just learned that Tori Bowie was a world champion in the 100, had world and Olympic medals, 6 years after her last gold medal, she died broke and couldn't even get ppl she carried to gold medals on relays to pick up the phone..

This life no balance at all! These professional athletes must make sure they maximize their earning potential whilst they’re still active, to avoid stories that touch.

World Cup fun fact:

The Nigeria v Argentina group game, at the 2014 World Cup, was the first in which 2 or more goals were scored inside the first 5 minutes of the match…

BascoVanVeli:
Nice. I would take Italy or Japan over Puerto Rico though.

I understand where you’re coming from. For me, though, these mid-level Euro teams are tricky because they’re usually good with their 3-point shooting, which D’Tigress haven’t fully figured out how to defend against.

Washington Mystics have signed Christeen Iwuala on a rookie scale contract, with a guaranteed minimum salary of $270,000/year.

She arrives in D.C. fresh off an impressive run at Ole Miss, where she averaged a near double-double with 12.5 PPG and 8.3 RPG on a sharp 60% shooting.

She recorded almost half of Ole Miss's double-doubles this season, becoming the first Rebel to accomplish the feat in 11 games since Scott had the same amount in the 2022-23 season.

Another big move for a rising Nigerian talent 💪🏾👏

Our “easiest” group would be Germany, Nigeria, Puerto Rico, and Czechia.

BascoVanVeli:
What in the group of death is going on in group A? 😭 Why are France and Germany in the same group again?

Our group is also really tough.

Lol
Those are the seedings, not the actual groups.
The draw comes up on Tuesday

The FIBA Women’s World Cup draw seedings are now set! ✅

As of now, tickets to the D’Tigress v LA Sparks friendly at the Viejas Arena in San Diego, CA, start at $48.40

Meanwhile, the 2026 FIBA Women’s World Cup draw takes place on April 21 (Tuesday), starting at 5pm Nigerian time….

TheSuperNerd:
Yes my man! Just Great!

I just know they’re gonna give the WNBA opposition some headache!

Deloitte is projecting that elite women’s sports, worldwide, will earn a combined revenue of US$3 billion this year, with football and basketball accounting for a combined 70% of the revenue😮‍💨
