Apparently she really did sign with a WNBA team, but it's not clear that she ever played, and it seems like she words it vaguely to potentially hide the fact that she didn't.

She doesn't appear to have been on their roster in either year:

I've now spent more time thinking about and looking into the WNBA than I had/will at any other time in my life.

Just found an update with more details on her lack of a WNBA career as well as more allegations by Haynseworth about her stealing from a charity:

The fact that he called 10 separate times lends credence to his claims, too. That... Doesn't quite excuse him for not paying child support. Unless he's looking for full custody.

Violating court orders is a poor strategy to get full custody.

Albert haynesworth is absolutely a pos. That said I believe this story too. From what I have seen, in rocky relationships, people will say absolutely terrible shit to each other. Way worse than they ever would say to somebody else.

Nothing about bringing up someone's background in a relationship fight surprises me one bit, whether it's racial, based on the growing up poor, or having a disabled sibling. Based on Albert haynesworth past behavior it seems almost predestined he would have rocky relationships.

I remember when he was a good pass rusher a million years ago.

 

[Bitanator]

What am I looking at here?


EDIT: Ohh, he steps on his head real quick

He stompd his head more than once fucking the dudes eye up.

Haynesworth is a piece of shit who the Redskins gave 40 million guaranteed to.

 

[hermitpurple]

Dude's head is way too big for his post-NFL body.

 

[Squirrel Killer]

Jackson's a former college basketball star who says she also played in the WNBA.

Would it really hurt TMZ to take 5 seconds to google this and discover that this is bullshit? She signed a training camp contract for a team, but never played in a game

 

[Horsemama1956]

I like how he doesn't like her calling him the n word but I can only imagine what he called her. Love how he turns this into racial situation when it's clearly just a fucked up abusive relationship on both sides.

 

[OG Shaka Zulu]

Two very shitty people. At the end of the day I despise self hating sambos more than I hate racists.

That kid is screwed.

 

[entremet]

How the fuck do you not just leave the minute the first n-bomb leaves her lips?

Dudes will throw away their entire dignity for pink cheeks, I swear

Relationships are complicated. He may have been in love.

If that's true...

Who steals from a charity? That is some Cobra Commander shit right there.

 

[OG Shaka Zulu]

Relationships are complicated. He may have been in love.

Its one thing to be in an interracial relationship and its another to fetishize white women and shit on Black women. It doesn't matter whether he was genuinely in love, he falls under the latter and is a sellout.

 

[Lil'DigiOp]

Ohh... she's very pretty. that means she's easily confirmed crazy lol

People can have preferences right? It seems like this "stay in your lane" philosophy is embraced on all sides and I think it's a poor way to eliminate racism.

 

[Akainu]

That's sad. Fuck you. But that sad. Fuck you though.

Sure. I'm just saying why some people would stay in abusive relationships. Haynesworth isn't the first or last person to do this.

i have no idea what you are addressing. Read my post again.

You can date or marry people outside your race without belittling the women of your own race.
Behavior like that is a moderately troubling issue with the men of our community and has been for a good minute now.

No, they cant.

Racial preferences in dating women not of your race is fetishization.

 

[Switch Back 9]

Haynesworth sucked as a player at the end. He's also probably full ou'd it with the sexual harassment situation, but that doesn't mean he's lying about this. The article is framed as it being ridiculous that a giant man could be abused by a much smaller woman, but no one would be ok with him tossing her through a wall, so calling the police if she was indeed violent seems reasonable.

Well, I mean, the NFL probably would be.

 

[5taquitos]

Get that misogynistic shit out of here.

 

[Supha_Volt]

How about we not do this.

Having a preference for a race. solely because of the color of their skin is not a thing to be proud of IMO.

Also racism isn't going to be eliminated with interracial dating.

You can date or marry people outside your race without belittling the women of your own race.

No, they cant.

I love y'all.

Hard for me to feel anything for Albert Haynesworth, dude was a huge scumbag.

No, they cant.

Racial preferences in dating women not of your race is fetishization.

I'd say it's fetishization whether they're in your own race or not.

 

[Lil'DigiOp]

Its a joke... relax...

Hayesworth crazy as shit too

There you go.
Then all that remains of this story is a case of domestic abuse.
