What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Welcome, welcome, welcome to Good Follow Show, presented by DraftKings Sports. I am the kid, Juju Gotti, with my sister, Trista Crick. How are you doing, sis?
I'm good, Juju. I'm here in Chi-town. I'm ready to go. I'm waiting for you. All-Star Week is just about to begin, so let's get this show up and rolling, especially considering that we got the Bayou Barbie
Back in Chi-town. Hey, come on, man. Fresh off an injury. She could have came back Sunday. She rode that ankle slash hyperextension. If this wasn't Barbie back in Chicago week, she would have probably got back in there. Sis got people to see, places to walk in them hills. She probably back fully recovered for this run. But speaking of sis, last week... Sandy B, a.k.a. Sandy Brondello, stepped in a tad of taste by calling Angel a protected species after Nayara Sabley's salute was injured during a play. Let's break down this madness, man. After that, my sister Angel took to Twitter, put some gasoline on that species. Carla said, are we surprised with the clown face? Sis, what is our first thoughts on this?
I was shocked, Juju. I heard it and said, oh, oh, Lord. Oh, Lord, this is not good.
Jesse made another one.
And the Twitter response of, are we surprised, clown emoji, is doing a lot.
Yeah.
Bro, if anything my sister going to do, it's going to be a lot every now and then.
Oh, wow. Are we surprised? Clown emoji, Juju.
Look, I ain't going to hold you, bro. Because in reality, yes, Sandy's from down under. She's from Australia, mate. Good day, indeed. But at the same time, this is America, Jack. Yeah. I don't know what they call the N-word or use it for on Pluto, but here in America, it mean one thing. So I'm glad she hopped right out there and apologized multiple times. But yeah, bro, it don't matter. I know. I get it. We over here now. What you think?
And not only are we here, we've been here. We've been here. You won a title with Diana Taurasi.
Come on now.
When Diana Taurasi was in her prime, fam. So now you haven't been down under since I was in college, since I was in high school. Talk about family. So I don't know, man. And I think the part that was tough is just like Australia in general doesn't have the greatest race relations brand. So I I love Sandy. I think she was. Lost your damn mind, you do. Lost your damn mind.
You feel me? Temporary moments. They be happening. Insanity. My sis, though, like I say, she apologized profusely, saying, I used a phrase that I shouldn't have used, and I take full responsibility for that. My words carried an impact beyond what I intended, particularly for Black women in our league. That's all we can ask for at this stage.
Did Sandy Brondello’s ‘protected species’ comment about Angel Reese cross a line?
She stepped in the boo-boo. The boo-boo is in her Reebok right now. All she can do is try to get it off at this point. And this is a great attempt to get that boo-boo off the Reebok. What did you think of this apology? Was it enough?
Yeah, I think it was enough. I think it was kind of conciliatory and understood that, listen, Black women have a hard time in this country. And I... I should not have said that about a black woman in this league. If I'm going to say it, I should be saying it about someone who looks like me. And listen, there may be no worse black woman in the league, Juju, to say it about. Maybe Chelsea Gray on the heels of getting N-word sent to her inbox.
Talk about it.
But Angel is... Truly one of those players that when you say her name, every single corner of humanity perks their ears up and gets a little more sensitive. And I'm not even saying that people should not be sensitive about these words. But in general, Angel elicits a higher level of scrutiny than any other player in the league.
Right, exactly. And when you mentioned Angel, every single syllable better have respect on it, no matter what. That's what we done learned so far. And my sister Sandy had to learn the hard way. And unfortunately, the WNBA didn't think that apology was enough. They sat my sis down for a game. They were like, uh-uh, we ain't finna play that. And what you think about that? Did the WNBA do correct by stepping in?
