The No ‘A-Hole’ Policy with Veronica Burton

Golden State Valkyries standout Veronica Burton joins Sarah to talk about her breakout season last year, believing in herself during her lean years in the league, coach Natalie Nakase’s ‘no a-holes’ policy, and the magic of Ballhalla. Plus, a “well, duh” kind of statement, a 16-year streak continues, and an annoying reminder that we still have to consider the men.
