Phoenix Mercury star Brittney Griner got herself ejected Saturday night during a game against the Dallas Wings.

Griner got upset at some physical contact under the hoop, took off after Kristine Anigwe, threw some punches and got herself tossed out of the game. I couldn’t make up this sequence of events if I tried. (SLIDESHOW: These Are The Hottest Women On Instagram)

Watch the absurd video below.

If you didn’t already think the WNBA was a joke, the video above should eliminate any remaining doubts. What an absolute circus.

Imagine getting paid the same amount of money as an accountant and then going out in front of a few fans to fight.

Honestly, this might be the coolest thing to ever happen in a WNBA game, which is just further proof what a sham the league is.

Can you even hit a WNBA player with a fine? NBA players get fined $50,000 or more for something like this.

That kind of fine could bankrupt some WNBA players. That’s some players’ entire salary for the season in the WNBA.

The WNBA should honestly be shut down. It’s not good basketball and we now have athletes running around fighting each other.

Shut it down!
