My latest for @forbes.com - Caitlin Clark's rookie trading card sold for $366,000 four months ago. That figure represents over $150,000 more than the maximum WNBA single-season salary and $28,000 more than Clark will earn across her entire four-year rookie contract. www.forbes.com/sites/lindse...

Caitlin Clark's recent record trading card sale highlights a significant disconnect between WNBA player marketability and their artificially suppressed salaries, despite high market demand.

The reality is that major airlines don’t have enough aspiring pilots in the pipeline to continue operations safely. DEI is a mechanism to attract, recruit, and retain talented individuals who may not see themselves in those roles. I had an eye opening discussion with a pilot and recruiting director

Dems should call for immediate hearings on what caused tonight’s plane crash, including the impact of the removal of FAA safety protocols and personnel.

Has Caitlin Clark changed the game between men’s and women’s sports?
Men’s sports have historically been much more popular than women’s. But that may be changing.
