Open season on Caitlin Clark
- Thread starter Jerry
- Start date
Clark was being way too diplomatic, and it is going to get her hurt. Last night there was another non-call when her legs were cut out from under her on a jump shot. If the WNBA continues to allow her to be a target, she needs to say enough is enough and go play overseas somewhere.
I think it is good that the team was eliminated. the WNBA needs to sit down and come up with a plan and racism needs to be eliminated from the sport, as best it can be.
If I am Caitlin, I go to the league and say "you know what, I've made several million and don't need you anymore. Here is how next year is going to happen. And if you don't like it, go back to your tiny venues and minimal add revenue." LeBron has done this for years. I got invited to the NBA union party at the Phoenix NBA all-star game. None of the big names showed up. Why? LeBron and a few of the superstars got together and had their own party with the main guest Beyonce (the union had T-Pain). The CBA was to expire the next year and the superstars wanted to send a message to show the power they had over the union. The first message was 'you can't even have a decent party without our cooperation. Wait until you get to ratifying a new contract".

In hockey they have someone to protect their stars. If you Gretzky you didn’t finish the game.
If any of her teammates had any balls …..oh….wait….. never mind!🥴
Lemieux never had a real effective goon. He established early that he would retaliate by scoring 4 goals.
Lindros was bullied and injured out of a great career.
Sidney lost several teeth his first trip to Philly. He was never properly protected but succeeded anyway.
And when the cash train comes along....make sure you help try to derail it. More eyeballs means more money. Funny that message isn't received by all the players. They are well informed about the eyeballs topic as the reason they DON'T make the same money as the NBA players. How can they possibly be so stupid as to be jealous when Clark (and Reese for that matter) are clear pathways to MORE money?
Yes...let's wear nine inch nails and poke her in the eyes. Didn't know it happened? Probably because the nails are too long.....
My 26 year old Son and I have been consuming Fever games including last night. I don't see me watching the rest. Feel like the other players don't seem to care if I do....so I will move on until next year.
Incidentally.......if you want to create some drama and watching....why does a 3 game series play 2 home then 1 away? Less chance of a 3rd game, I would think.
the racism topic....last night the person, "fan", was let back in the arena, so the announcers seemed to say. I got nothing.
I don’t know what Christine Brenneman did but she is getting the wrath of the WNBA players. CB was one that promoted the Paterno BS so I have no sympathy.
The wnba is unwatchable garbage . I stop by every now and then to just bitch .
There's a whole lot of people that need a whole lot of serious dressing downs. You need somebody , I don't know who would but maybe somebody in the WNBA at the top or the NBA who actually pays the bills to say stop this bullshit. Because without someone else paying your bills, no one's gonna watch this week. Kaitlyn Clark is a godsend for ratings, and even though I find women's basketball personally unwatchable some people like it.
Knock your shit off because remember this is a welfare league, this leak would not exist without our money so clean up your act or the league shuts down.
Butvthey will never do it.
WNBA needs to get this season over and take some time to regroup. They are about to slaughter the golden goose. It will be interesting to see the ratings after CC's team has been eliminated.
Can’t believe I am posting again about the WNBA. Maybe the WNBA is smarter than we think. Maybe the carnage they are giving CC is to drive up ratings. Maybe they are playing 3D chess and everyone else is playing checkers. Let me think. Nope. Terrible basketball with questionable crap.
The WNBA is flat out stupid. Their ratings for the playoffs are not up minus Caitlin Clark. They are a garbage league dominated by garbage individuals and led by do nothing shills for DEI. F them and the whores they rode in on.
She asked Dijonnae Carrington about the play where she poked Clark in the eye…apparently that’s racist and misogynistic these days.
Caitlin took a different tack in a comment this week: bend the knee and hope for the best.
Call it the WNBA version of Stockholm Syndrome:
>>I want to say I've earned every single thing but as a white person there is privilege. A lot of those players in the league who've been really good have been black players. This league has been kind of built on them. The more we can appreciate that, highlight that, talk about that, and then continue to have brands and companies invest in those players that have made this league incredible, I think it's very important. I have to continue to try to change that. The more we can elevate black women, that's a beautiful thing.<<
Holy crap, she sounds like a prisoner in Hanoi Hilton reading from a script prepared by the jailers. Are her eyeballs blinking the word t-o-r-t-u-r-e??
This is how you must genuflect to an industry captured by wokeism. Progressives don’t care about free exchange of ideas. They don’t believe there are any ideas other than their own. That’s where the idiotic notion that blacks can’t be racist comes from. If you are a member of a protected class not matter how reprehensible your behavior, or beliefs, it can alway be excused.
