FROM 'PATHETIC' WNBA TO ANTSY LEBRON TO WALKING -- WHAT'S THAT? -- IN THE NBA

  Of All Things: WHAT’S LEFT … for those pathetic losers in the WNBA who are doing their best to overcome all the interest in women’s  hoops built by  CAITLIN CLARK ’s arrival? … Now both  teams in the league finals are leaving the floor prior to the  National Anthem … returning as soon as it is over. Introducing a segment he called “They’ve got gripes with the  stars and stripes,” late-night talk show host/comedian  GREG  GUTFELD  said, “Protesting the anthem has been common  practice for many WNBA teams for years … The league’s rule  book says players, coaches and trainers must stand and line up  for the anthem but nobody enforces it … so they get up and  leave when they play the Star-Spangled Banner … just like  when men leave a bar when the WNBA is on.” SPEAKING OF WHICH … You’ve got to believe that  eventually the NBA’s legion of fans will become weary of  such nonsense and find other, more satisfying, ...

LET'S HEAR IT FOR 'UNCLE RON'

YEA! … BOO!! (Briefly told): YEA! JMU … no, not because it’s moving up in the college  football world, leaving the Sun Belt Conference for the more- competitive American Conference … but because the one-time  all-women’s institution is rapidly becoming the modern-day Cradle of Coaches  … Surely you’ve noticed what   CURT  CIGNET T I   has done at Indiana and what  BOB CHESNEY is doing in his first season at UCLA, both win-starved  programsprior to the arrival of the James Madison  graduates  … Somewhere in the great beyond  DR. RONALD CARRIER  smiling … for it was “Uncle Ron” as JMU president (1971-98)  who was most responsible for turning a small college in out-of- the-way Harrisonburg, Va., into a major, well-known university  … by concentrating on athletics. BOO! Triple-A golf … Even though it is second only to the  game’s major leagues and loaded with “stars of tomorrow,”  how in the world can anyone tak...

IS DANIELS SECOND COMING OF RGIII?

  Just Stuff (… and not all sports) …  Don’t they ever learn. Commanders or Redskins … no matter  what The Washington Football Team is called … we can count  on them doing something incredibly off the wall, borderline  dumb or downright stupid … Now it appears they  will call  on   JAYLEN DANIELS  to play this week. At least that was the  word from coach  DAN QUINN  … whose job could be in  jeopardy and presumably would’t mind risking the health of the  franchise quarterback if, somehow, he can turn the 1-3 team  around. Don’t forget … Daniels suffered the same gruesome-looking  dislocated elbow that limited his playing time a year ago … and  left the Commanders with veteran  MARCUS MARIOTA   under center. They finished under .500 after winning the  Eastern Conference the previous season … When Daniels re- injured the same (left, non-throwing) arm in Game 2, there was  every reason t...
