This isn’t even remotely true. Clark doesn’t aim it at opposing players. I don’t like her, but to equate the two is to deliberately blind oneself to facts in order to allow for Reese’s bad behavior.Reese did what Clark has been doing lately. What do you think is the difference that causes the outrage only when Reese did it?
yea so you lost take the trash talk like a woman!Clark taunts and got it back at her. I can not be a fan of a behavior, but also realize it’s not worth worrying about in the long run. I said the same thing with some of Starocci’s posts- not my cup of tea but If it works for him, so be it. At the end of the day, Reese represents LSU and her team. If her coach and her school approve of the behavior, it is what it is.
Have to disagree. The most watched women’s CBB clip before last night was the one of Clark waiving at the S.C. girl to go ahead and shoot from beyond the arc cause Clark wasn’t gonna guard her. It was the only women’s CBB I had watched all season until last night cause it was impossible not to see it. It was replayed and shared everywhere.This isn’t even remotely true. Clark doesn’t aim it at opposing players. I don’t like her, but to equate the two is to deliberately blind oneself to facts in order to allow for Reese’s bad behavior.
Just giving you shit and being a smart ass. But you are absolutely right, you can prepare all you want but to get beat by some hot shooting, just seemed like everything dropped for LSU.Sorry. Thank you for the correction. She was 3 for 16 from the 3 point line in the previous championship games, and had 1 field goal. Reads better my way, but false is false. Took ESPN radio at their word. Still remarkable to go 5 for 5 in the first half, no way to prepare for a hand that hot. The first half buzzer beater was a dagger.
She most definitely directs it to others. She literally waved off an opposing player during the semifinal game taunting her to take a three.This isn’t even remotely true. Clark doesn’t aim it at opposing players. I don’t like her, but to equate the two is to deliberately blind oneself to facts in order to allow for Reese’s bad behavior.
While I've talked about it a little , I cannot watch it. I have no desire.What a time to be alive.... Everyone who is up in arms about what Angel Reese did on the court is comedy. There is the win with class and lose with class, but Angel has had a tough career and was #2 while Clark was #4 in the same class. There is nothing wrong with showing as much emotion as she did in playing in what is the most important game of her career to date, not to mention likely more viewership than a WNBA finals game. But lets also discuss how her 'antics' has gotten Womens College BBall air time and conversation going. Generally, most fans of college athletics may not view a womens sport, however this has gotten people talking which I think at the end of the day is the best thing.
As the saying goes, bad publicity is good publicity
Where was this Iowa fan all year? Thanks for stopping by. Great to meet sound minded logical fans from Iowa we need more of this on both boardsAs a life long Hawkeye Wrestling Fan, I cannot believe I have to say this to Mr. Twist, but Thank You for having a rational view to the championship game. Yes, a select portion Hawkeye fandom is once again in melt down mode, the officiating WAS horrible. but we were not going to beat LSU based on the plan we had and the fact taht they caught fire shooting threes. We dared them to shoot the long ball, they were only 25% through out the year, they were 68% last night, including five in a row from a bench player that did not have a single point in the entire tournament, maybe not out coached, but they hit when we didn't. Good on them. As to Angels antics, it is what it is, it was bush league , but to the victor belongs the spoils. Take care PSU fans.
I think it was hilarious that Clark said she wasn't even aware of the trash talking going on after the game. That's priceless. Put it right back on lsuThis isn’t even remotely true. Clark doesn’t aim it at opposing players. I don’t like her, but to equate the two is to deliberately blind oneself to facts in order to allow for Reese’s bad behavior.
Nelson Brands was out of line taunting Starocci at the end of their match. I was proud of Carter for maintaining his composure and not breaking down in tears. A humble guy like Starocci didn't deserve that kind of attack.You’re on the record supporting taunting. Noted for future reference.
I can name 2 or 3 people that knocking off would do them (and the world) good, but a sports announcer isn't one of them.Honestly, if I had the opportunity to kill one person with no moral or penal consequences, it would probably be Stephen a smith.
of all the hoopla that's come out of this, this comment is by far the most deranged i've seen lolHonestly, if I had the opportunity to kill one person with no moral or penal consequences, it would probably be Stephen a smith.

Murdering someone is one thing but why you gotta bring genitalia into this?Honestly, if I had the opportunity to kill one person with no moral or penal consequences, it would probably be Stephen a smith.
Bouncing pumpkins.What in the hell are yous guys talking about?
Caitlin Clark>Spencer Lee...she at least got 2nd.101 posts in a thread about Hawkeye Girl's basketball, on a PSU wrestling forum?
I'm impressed.
Also, Caitlin Clark is decent at Hoops. Mike Evans is even impressed
I say Good Sir - Have you no sense of decency?Caitlin Clark>Spencer Lee...she at least got 2nd.
Honestly, my rule is that internet spelling and grammar policing is the first line of defense of the weak minded, and that one should not play grammar or spelling police unless an underlying error in the original post is inherently humorous (e.g., "parody pricing" or "super seed").Murdering someone is one thing but why you gotta bring genitalia into this?
ah, but let me explain...of all the hoopla that's come out of this, this comment is by far the most deranged i've seen lol
TL;DR version: ESPN talking head.ah, but let me explain...
The nature of SAS is simply this: to adopt and advocate for whatever position he knows will generate controversy. Which is to say, he actually knows quite well what the reasonable position is, and simply takes the maximally contrarian position possible anyway. In short, the worst of sophistry, which really doesn't lead to any positive ends.
TL;DR version: ESPN talking head.
In Philly we used to call him Stephen A.I. Smith, "A.I." being Allen Iverson. He played his role well.
my goodness you have a short attention span, jefe...TL;DR version: ESPN talking head.

A) It is the offseasonHave we resorted to talking basketball?
No one has even asked when the schedule will be out. We've got a lot of time to fill.Have we resorted to talking basketball?
I will remember this post next year as I watch Elite level College Football Teams dismantle a team because that is what the Committee wants to see. I will remember this post as I watch Starocci embarrass and show boat on another wrestler by doing all the fancy boxing footwork he does at the end of a match.
But you are right classless behavior only just started....not like it has been exhibited in sports for a length of time (BIG EYE ROLL
It’s one thing to beat an outgunned opponent. But, gloating (and running up the score beyond reason) is classless.I will remember this post next year as I watch Elite level College Football Teams dismantle a team because that is what the Committee wants to see.

yea esp by 55 points!LOLIt’s one thing to beat an outgunned opponent. But, gloating (and running up the score beyond reason) is classless.

Not everyone is Starocci. Some people are smart enough to say the “right things” on camera when they know doing otherwise accomplishes nothing. Savvy move. If she is the competitor that I think she is she isn’t saying that to her friends and teammates.
So to summarize, the only people bent out of shape about this are people who didn’t play in the game.
Doubt it, but if it bothered her, it will motivate her more next time. But since she talks on the court as much as anyone, she probably has it in perspectiveNot everyone is Starocci.

Cstroke, your avatar makes me feel like I'm not in a safe space. I feel triggered when I see it. I can't help but think it's a microaggression on your part and well, I can't think of any other stupid phrases that millennials and Gen-Zers use so I'll leave it at that.I can’t wait till we move from the basketball phase of our off season whoas..
this is stage 7 of 69.. Im looking forward to 68 when we share our feelings..
