In the wake of Heated Rivalry, We Need to Retire ‘WAGs’ and Embrace ‘SOAPs’ in Professional Sports

I wrote the following blog post long before the Canadian television series (based on the Game Changers novel series by Rachel Reid) Heated Rivalry turned the culture on its head. Now, more than ever, we need to be more inclusive in sports and that starts with player’s loved ones. Dear television stars Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, help us go from WAGs to SOAPs. Let … Continue reading In the wake of Heated Rivalry, We Need to Retire ‘WAGs’ and Embrace ‘SOAPs’ in Professional Sports

Why We Need to Retire ‘WAGs’ and Embrace ‘SOAPs’ in Professional Sports

Let me explain what WAGs and SOAPs mean: WAGs stands for “wives and girlfriends” of professional athletes. The term has always felt uncomfortable to me, though I’ve struggled to articulate exactly why.

It took thirteen innings on a cold but sunny April day in Pittsburgh, but somebody had to do it—and yesterday, that somebody was Joey Bart. I had a free afternoon, so I figured I’d catch a baseball game and get myself to God’s country. Luckily, I was sitting in the sun because it was otherwise pretty nippy.

Monday Morning Madness

What a weekend of sports! Did I call that Lando would win or what?! In a race that had more plot twists than a Netflix series, The Australian Grand Prix was chaotic in every sense of the word. Max seemed unusually happy with a second-place finish, maybe because he actually had fun racing or perhaps the taste of humble pie isn’t so bad after all. … Continue reading Monday Morning Madness
