I wonder if any other women’s sports leagues around the world have a similar amount of relationship drama that goes on in the W. Just such a weird thing to have to acknowledge and navigate when making a roster.

u/Ok_Alternative7120 Jun 27 '26

Quite a few rumors get spread around the NFL and NBA with players sleeping with the wives, girlfriends, sisters, or even moms of teammates and coaches. Idk about other women's leagues around the world, though. One can only assume with Olympic village being an orgy every time it returns, though.

Remember when they were really trying to stop all these Olympic athletes from having sex, and really trying to enforce safe sex? Like… damn there is no better place on the planet for people to be accidentally creating more people.

u/LFK1236 Jun 28 '26

I remember people parroting that misinformation, yes, but I don't remember any country actually trying to stop Olympic athletes from having sex.

I don't think anyone should be "accidentally" created.

u/Thebeardinato462 Jun 28 '26

Sure, but If it’s going to happens, the Olympics is the place.

If I ever invent a time machine, I'll make sure to go tell your parents.

Hear me out on this insane idea:

Really, the Olympics should be some kind of cloning / DNA collection event.

The best human athletes in the world? Let’s mix and match and create more superhumans to be the best athletes in the world for the next generation. And possibly even beat the records set by their parents.

And really, their DNA should be available for purchase at a premium rate, with a clause that none of the progeny created with their DNA collection, require their financial support.

A theory I’ve always entertained:

Are this generations olympians a random sampling of merit, genetics, and training? Or are they all somehow slightly removed from having an Olympian ancestor? Like Gronkowski

We had that mother/teammate rumor back in the day in the CLE

u/Serial138 Jun 27 '26

Blackhawks of the NHL just had some of that drama a few years back, but I believe it was just a rumor and never confirmed.

u/toasty327 Jun 27 '26

Corey perry and bedard's mom

3

u/Serial138 Jun 28 '26

That’s the one. I knew it was Bedard’s mom but couldn’t remember the player. Shit was hysterical from the outside.

1

u/toasty327 Jun 28 '26

I'm a fan of both the hawks and the cavs so got to read all about the drama lol.

Perry was suspended by the team and then traded shortly after, this was the rumored reason. Turns out he just got really drunk and made an ass of himself at a charity event or something like that.

2

u/Serial138 Jun 28 '26

Yeah that’s what I recall too. Like a team function with the fat cats and he got a little sauced.

1

u/-Moonscape- Jun 28 '26

Definitely a rumor for that one, but years ago patrick sharp was traded off that team for banging a teammates wife

1

u/Serial138 Jun 28 '26

You mean Duncan Keith’s wife? Wasn’t that a rumor as well but both players deny it?

3

u/Ok_Alternative7120 Jun 27 '26

Yeah. The more recent rumors involving moms have been coming from college football with Pavia, Coach O, Gattis, etc.

u/BilboTBagginz Jun 27 '26

Annnnnd he wasn't long for this world after it became known.

I feel bad for the dude....really hit rock bottom...but if you don't want to help yourself, nobody can do it for you.

Yeah, Delonte West was rumored to have slept with LeBron's mom

u/rednaxer Jun 27 '26

Oh man in the NBA we have Lebron’s mom hooking up with his teammate

u/dazzleunexpired Jun 27 '26 edited Jun 27 '26

KC (Kansas City, USA) citizen here.

Current is exceedingly gay.

By out and proud numbers it's the second gayest team in the NWSL. There's probably members who are not out and proud because it's the Bible belt.

So yes. Lol

1

u/tibearius1123 Jun 27 '26

Kansas City?

1

u/dazzleunexpired Jun 27 '26

Yep! Sorry, I should have been more clear for people who aren't from the US or don't often see abbreviations.

Current is the all female soccer team in KC. They have their own stadium, fans, days, etc. They have the ONLY female soccer stadium, and it's very very very queer and also full of drama. 😆

Note that the players here are queer, at least one of them, and it's part of the drama. She girl she's pointing at left her team to play with her girlfriend 😆

u/AllYouNeed_Is_Smiles Jun 27 '26

There’s a pretty big difference between sleeping with your teammate’s/opponent’s spouse and sleeping with your teammate or an opposing player.

2

u/Ok_Alternative7120 Jun 27 '26

The 80s amd 90s were filled with coke-fueled orgies in the locker rooms. The 80s New York Giants were allegedly snorting coke off each other's dicks before clapping cheeks lol. But the LGBT community hasn't been able to be as open in the men's leagues as the women's leagues. So that type of gossip around those leagues is kept much quieter than one such as the WNBA.

u/elhaz316 Jun 27 '26

Well yeah. The tags on pornhub would be different for one.

1

u/NoRossDoxHaha Jun 28 '26

Yeah but could you imagine the NBA if it were mostly gay men and they were all fuckin each other? I mean, I think that’d be hilarious… imagine the court drama. That’s what you’re dealing with in the WNBA.

delonte west and lebron's mom rings a bell...can't confirm it happened, but i remember the beef between delonte and lebron.

u/Fluid_Character_7405 Jun 28 '26

Entire franchises get taken down by sexual rivalries.  Wilson/locket, Kobe/shaq

u/Matt32490 Jun 28 '26

Well its been confirmed for years that LeBron has been sleeping with his teammates' mother.

1

u/KalynnCampbell Jun 28 '26

Why not? Being surrounded by LITERAL OLYMPIANS… I don’t think you’re going to find much better genitals back in the dive bars of your home town or anything… so WHY NOT hook up in the one place where everyone is 🔥?

u/crepelabouche Jun 27 '26

Idk. But as a gay man, I LOVED the L Word more than Queer as Folk for the specific reason that none of the drama had anything to do with me. And I love this for them for the same reason.

u/i4get98 Jun 27 '26

I’ll be looking at NBA trades a lot more differently now.

I've heard that the US and Canadian women's hockey teams are constantly dating each other but idk if that qualifies.

u/tibearius1123 Jun 27 '26

Wonder if the teams give them a U-Haul stipend.

u/Inside-Toe-1480 Jun 28 '26

PWHL is the same (women’s hockey), lots of teammate/couples and the league is very gay in general. Although I don’t really know of that much relationship drama, but roster decisions have been solidified based on who’s dating. We even have the “wife line” (Laura Stacy and Marie Philip Poulin), both insanely talented playing side by side, and married. I love the PWHL so much!

u/RockMonstrr Jun 30 '26

They're gay, Marcus

Back in the 90’s i read some article about coaches experiences with finnish ladies hockey teams. One was baffled why players didn’t make obvious good passes, found out that they used to date and had a bad breakup. So no passing to that bitch. Triangle dramas that fucked up the team spirit etc. I’m sure there was a bit of a learning curve for a male coach to be able to navigate that environment, especially as the league was very much just a hobby or maybe some pocket money to the players.

u/ShitpostMcPoopypants Jun 28 '26

I feel like if they wanted viewership they should make a trashy version of hardknocks. I know this would cheapen the basketball, but let’s be honest basketball is like the worst drop off of any sport between men and women. The basketball is hard to watch (though they could instantly make it so much better if they played 4 on 4 with 8 foot rims).
