Me as well , she needs to make a decision and quit blaming the WNBA . They have made their decision now you control what you can control . If she wants to play as bad as she claims ......Delle Donne has every right to opt out, that is completely her decision, I just could have done without the self-pity and dramatics. Do WNBA players make anywhere near as much as their male counterparts? No, but they make a damn good living for playing 34 games, Delle Donne also makes a ton in endorsements! There are 20 million out of work Americans right now that would give ANYTHING to make what she makes in a season! These are unprecedented times for EVERYBODY, the woe is me bit is tiresome.
I kinda think there is a collective grudge against EDD for leaving UConn that some have been harboring for a long, long time.
Ya kinda think? Are you new around these parts?
What exactly is a "collective grudge?"
Waquoit, sorry but I have to call you out on this one. I had a disc go on me thirty years ago and part of it went into the sciatic nerve. I've got to say that I thought I knew what pain was but I really didn't. Like many other people I used to have someone tell me they had back problems and I'd just nod and say "Really". After that I knew what they were talking about and believe me, was much more empathetic.Meh, everyone has herniated discs.
She misses half the season with some type of something every season. She wants to be home. UConn and Chicago are signs. I don’t believe her. Sorry not sorry.
She takes 64 pills every day. 64.

Researchers have discovered that ticks can transmit more than four different pathogens in a single bite, so it is possible that some of Elena’s persisting symptoms are due to coinfections. Elena mentioned Bartonella and other coinfections in her letter. It is also possible that Elena’s symptoms are due to Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme disease.I feel sorry for Elena...she clearly suffers from some condition. But it isn't chronic Lyme disease. That condition does not exist!

Mystics to pay Elena Delle Donne's salary, but agent says concerns remain.
Mystics coach and general manager Mike Thibault said in a video call Wednesday that Delle Donne is on the team's roster and is being paid. He said she will be paid throughout the WNBA season, even if she is doing only rehab for the back surgery she underwent in January and doesn't play.

Persistence of Borrelia burgdorferi after several weeks of oral antibiotic treatment has now been demonstrated in humans, dogs, monkeys, mice, horses, and other animals. Some of the studies, such as this one and this one, have used xenodiagnosis to show that Borrelia can survive treatment with ceftriaxone. Indeed, this study demonstrated that persistent spirochetes remain viable for up to 18 months following antibiotic treatment.
The book “Bitten: The Secret History of Lyme Disease and Biological Weapons” alleges that scientist Willy Burgdorfer claimed that the disease was part of a biological weapons program that went awry.
Sounds as though the WNBA quietly pulled that committee decision, without telling the public that it had done so. Seems as though Thibault can't do what he's doing without a 180 from the league.
A Rosanne Rosanna Danna? "Never mind!"
