Diana Taurasi made some inflammatory comments about the money she was making during her WNBA career and complained about having to travel to Russia just to make what she thought she deserved. Doug gives the former WNBA superstar a reality check explaining exactly why he thinks she is so far off base, and frankly obnoxious and petty, with her comments.
Doug Gottlieb: “The sheer arrogance and just kind of obnoxious sort of feel to it…You’re sitting there complaining about a league that was hemorrhaging money for 25 years because you’re bitter and you’re jealous that the players now, especially one particular player who you don’t think is at your level is making more money than you. That’s called being petty.”
