BREAKING: WNBA Star Sophie Cunningham UNLOADS on NFL – “YOU’RE DUMB AS F*CK” for Bad Bunny Super Bowl Halftime, Calls for Boycott
Phoenix, AZ – October 29, 2025 By Elena Vasquez, Senior Sports Correspondent The National Pulse Sports
In a mic-drop moment that’s exploding across social media, fiery Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham torched the NFL during a post-WNBA Finals live interview Wednesday night, declaring “YOU’RE DUMB AS F*CK” for booking Bad Bunny as the 2026 Super Bowl halftime headliner.
“The Super Bowl is America’s game! Our WNBA Finals? Pure class – sportsmanship, heart, no circus!” Cunningham raged to a roaring crowd on ESPN’s post-game broadcast, fresh off the Fever’s epic Game 7 thriller. “NFL’s turning it into a freak show with this guy? Boycott that sh*t! Watch real hoops instead!”
The 28-year-old sharpshooter, who nailed career-highs in FG% (48.2%) and 3PT% (42.1%) this season – third in the league – didn’t hold back. “Halftime should hype the athletes, not shock value porn. Bad Bunny? Glitter, grind, and garbage. We play for pride – they play for clicks!” Her clip has racked up 3.2 million views on X in hours, trending #BoycottSuperBowl worldwide.
Cunningham: From WNBA Firebrand to NFL Nemesis
Cunningham, WNBA’s most-followed rebel with 2.8M on TikTok and 1.9M on Insta, is no stranger to stirring the pot. Fined $3K+ this year for blasting refs (“They don’t know sh*t about basketball!”), she’s WNBA’s voice of truth. Now, she’s weaponizing her platform against the NFL’s “woke globalist pivot.”
“WNBA Finals: Sold-out arenas, families cheering pure athleticism,” she tweeted post-rant. “Super Bowl? Push Bad Bunny – anti-ICE, pro-chaos. Dumb. As. F*ck.”
