Brittany Griner got 9 years

[NatiboyB]

I hate to say it but 45 would have probably got her out. 46 and the c00n bytch are fukking useless

I doubt it what’s so special about her as opposed to the others whom are prisoners over there? We know what it is if they want her back they will trade for her.

fukking idiot

She pulls this shyt while Russia is cooking up WWIII

Of course they would make and example of her and use her a political propaganda.

Breh about to see how much this country really feels about her

You would call the slaves that escaped the plantations but got caught later during slavery “fukkin idiots” too

She’s celebrity and it’s good press. Im gonna be honest I was expecting her ass to be here.

Excessive sentencing, obviously being used a political pawn. I hope we can get her home soon. Russia was a popular offseason destination for WNBA players too, wonder where they are going to go now, if they still even go overseas at all (I wouldn't).

That’s why I assumed they would of arranged the prisoner swap by now. But if they don’t want to swap prisoners or give Russia something they want I expect her to sit.

I could have sworn she admitted it was hers and tried to run the prescribed by my doctor play?

I do believe there is a play being made here on both sides. No African nations have agreed to take a side or political position in the Russian vs Ukraine war. Is the play to get African Americans in an uproar try to turn this griener thing into a race thing in hopes we will inspire African nations to align with Ukraine which ultimately aligns them with the u.s?

Or this may simply be Russia slamming her with 9 years to create the leverage they need to make the swap and free their arms dealer.

This country is going more conservative though. Biden could upset a lot of people making that swap. Will be interested in how this will play out.

A lot of Africans do not view black Americans in that way. Americans really got to stop applying their world view to the rest of world. Africans don't have a Queen Latifa rocking Timbs and a USA necklace in a show of support of their AA brothers.

This isn't an anti-African post btw. Just that black Americans need to understand that our view of race is shaped by our unique experience in America. We don't have the same history and therefore, don't have the same perspective on racial topics. Again, not putting Africans down just saying culturely we are different.

Holy shyt! I thought the max was gonna be 5 years.

FOH with that breh.

Don’t drag slavery into the stupidity of some chick who got caught doing something she shouldn’t have been doing — and admitted it.

You pull up to another country then you play by their rules. Just because Americans do whatever and expect whatever doesn’t mean that another country gives two shyts.

Can’t be both ways just because we don’t “agree” with their justice system. Don’t wanna get out behind the walls then put some fukkin respect on their rules, play basketball, get your money and leave.

What American in their right mind would be in Russia (doing dumb shyt) during a war considering the political ammunition it gives for Moscow to try to nudge some kind of action just to see if anyone bites.

This is bigger than her — she just is the unlucky sucker who is being used for propaganda reasons. So and gotta do her 9 years or hopes that her Uncle Sam cares enough to swap her for some real criminals.

[xXOGLEGENDXx]

I bet all the maga cacs cheering in victory for their “main man” whose last name starts with a P

Damn, I feel sorry for Brittany her playing career is essentially over now.

Her playing career?! She is going to a Russian prison for 9 years and you think she gives a fukk about her basketball career right now?

[Consigliere]

She’s gonna do at least 3 years. They won’t trade her til after the war.

If at least two of Putins closet people aren’t dead in a week from a obvious USA assassination as a show of power , the CIA ain’t shyt and will deserve a flattop
