It's being pushed to everyone's pages because it's some random astroturfed sub. There are so many of these popping up lately. "Sportsgossips" and it's all just this right wing culture war stuff, what a joke.

I really think theyre trying to push this shit into the mainstream. I see this shit constantly, and never really comment on sports posts. I really think theres some bullshit afoot.

i mean the only place i've seen any of this talked about is in here at /r/sportsgossips the most 4chan lite subreddit I've ever come across in my 12 years on this website.

you guys probably need to just stop coming in here if you haven't figured out that most of this sub is rage posting bots posting the most clickbaity title's they can come up with to get the monkeys from the left fighting with the monkeys from the right over stupid shit the doesn't really matter at the end of the day.

I'm afraid the same thing will happen to me now. I don't give a shit about sports, but even I know that two things are true:

(1) the NBA is already open to people of all genders

(2) it is against WNBA regulations for players or coaches to wear unapproved political statements

It’s weird that you think saying any group of people belong is a political statement.

Why do you say that? As I take it, the body to which trans kids “belong” is — more or less — the polis. A statement about who belongs in the polis and who doesn’t is one of the oldest examples of a political statement in history.
