Men’s team valuations are getting so big, even with more billionaires, it’s increasingly difficult for a small group of people to pay for a team, so PE $ is that much more tempting. I know it’s all capitalism but it feels crucial for women’s sports culture to find some other path.

I had some thoughts about Sydney Sweeney and her recent commercial. This entire debacle has made me see and hear the powerful voices of women in sport. But make me question why we take Sweeney seriously at all. My latest for CBC Sports www.cbc.ca/sports/opini...

cbc.ca

OPINION | Sydney Sweeney has nothing to do with sports. So what is it about her ad that is making us so mad? | CBC Sports

If we start to consider Sydney Sweeney a notable personality in sports then we have really lost the plot.
