Sue Bird let me be the first to inform you who is supposed to be such a great player, if you were such a great player people would’ve paid to watch you or any of the other teams play but you are not as exciting to watch as Caitlin is and that is the reason for ticket price disparage. The FEVER are the most entertaining team in the WNBA since Caitlin was picked and that is the reason for their ticket pricing and the lack of yours.
Of course ticket sales are lower in games in which Caitlin doesn't play. Sue Bird is reaching Sheryl Swoopes level of stupidity. Instead of celebrating Caitlin as one of the most exciting players in basketball, she instead wants to berate her for being more popular than the pathetic athletes in the rest of the league. Instead of trying to figure out how to fix this dysfunctional league she wants to blame her for trying to elevate this product. Sue's trying to distract everyone from the fact that the WNBA has refused to embrace this trancendent athlete. This perhaps better than anything else illustrates why the fans don't engage with the rest of the league. Sue should recognise that if you see injustice and do nothing but blame the victim of said injustice then you are part of the problem. To paraphrase, if it looks like a jealous hater and acts like a jealous hater then you are a jealous hater.
The Valkyries have Kate Martin Caitlins old partner from college. Before A'ja whined and benched her, Kate was nicknamed MONEY MARTIN by her teammates due to her shooting performance. Her jerseys were outselling A'ja Wilson even though she eventually got much less playtime. This is going to be a very interesting season.
It truly saddens me to hear Sue Bird talk this way. Until now I’ve always thought Sue was the classiest player in the league. Apparently I was wrong. Maybe Rapinoe finally got to her. Megan is a train wreck. I thought Sue Bird was better than this. How can she not see that CC is a massive win overall for the league. Maybe Sue would also say that Michael Jordan was bad for the league because he made the entire world watch the NBA! It’s pretty much the same thing.
Sue has a brain problem.They go to see who they like not just to watch any team.If your team is boring and not exciting no one wants to watch you.Caitlin is the one that’s exciting,new and a great star.You on the other hand are just a boring old player they have watch over and over.Just like they they go to watch Jordan or Shaq.
The teams control the prices of their tickets not the players and certainly not Caitlin Clark. I think the fans like certain players in every sport from Paton Manning, Tom Brady and now Patrick Mahomes the same with Baseball, Hockey, Soccer, and all other sports, in No instance do the players set ticket prices. In my opinion the product that the team puts out for the for the fans to watch, determins if the fans are interested or not.
I said it before, and I will say it again. And in my opinion, Sue Bird may be a bit responsible for what has been the problem with the WNBA since its inception. All of the social justice warriors and their agendas. Until Clark came along, bringing with her the people who followed her college career, no one cared about the WNBA. She is a white heterosexual woman with no social agenda. She just wants to play basketball and improve. I think both she and the Fever are lucky to end up together. From what I have seen, though more improvement is needed by her teammates in defending her from some of the bullies, Clark has formed some very strong bonds and friendships with Boston, Mitchell, Hull, Wheeler and others. That friendship and bonding will improve during the off season and the Fever in its entirety will do great. Glad the Valkyries have done so well with season ticket sales. I hope this new team will be more concerned about basketball and not going off on some SJW tangent. Promote your players to the fans, get them out amongst the local schools and events for kids. Make them marketable.
Clark's desire to play ball isn't driven by the spotlight. It's the same as when she was playing on a boys' team. She played and plays for the love of the game. Why hate on a person who could and can make your life more exciting and fulfilling. And that's not even talking about more change in your pocket.
the WNBA was scalping those ticket's on CC's popularity. call out the LEAGUE for NOT spreading the money around. PLUS ,with the way CC was and is STILL being insulted is not the way to bring/keep fan's. also dont worry how I spend MY money. this is a league WHO HAVE STATED THEY HATE THEIR FAN'S!!! AND DONT NEED OR WANT THEM!!! dont whine whan you get your wish.
Viewers and fans will watch who they want to watch. If the WNBA and their players are so great, they should be able to get viewers on their own merit. The numbers speak for themselves, all Sue is doing is exposing how bad her league has been before Caitlin.
I never watched and million others ,WNBA until now. I only want to watch CC the others are boring ..especially now after a lot attacking her. The W has been a flop since day one and zero profit. They all are blowing the big break for attention now w CC. 🤦♀️
A'ja, the fake Most VALUABLE Player, is the one who should be creating the ticket sales and views, but she does NOT, so maybe Clark is the REAL MVP because A'ja has the personality of a porcupine. Stop hating on Clark because the very has-beens who did not do their part for the last 20 years are the problem. Stop trying to gaslight us, Bird, and admit you were just boring.

Sue BIRD has joined the toxicity.

Suebird is simply Jealous!
What has it go to do CC? She just plays ball and says little about the people who criticise her.

It’s a fact that she is jealous. It’s the same with SS with the addition of anger of having her records broken.
Yes, they don't want to be bumped off the records list
Caitlin should go and play golf instead............. then see what happens to the WNBA.
Sue bird should know better than that really wake up lady

Sue Bird is trying to be relevant again

Clark has arrived 😂😂 these studs can’t stand it ….
Sue the Caitlin fans. They are the problem, not Caitlin.
Sue bird is just out to hate on cc.she just wants to be in the headlines.sue stick to youre podcast and leave cc alone.
Sue why don’t u blame the ‘fans’ of the other teams for not showing up - or maybe they don’t hav as many fans as CC - get over it
Viewers and fans will watch who they want to watch. If the WNBA and their players are so great, they should be able to get viewers on their own merit. The numbers speak for themselves, all Sue is doing is exposing how bad her league has been before Caitlin.

Yeah why are you hating on a product of a business you’re in?
I stopped watching this not because of the content but the AI voice over. It’s annoying and I it just spoils the whole show. I’m over this. Moving on.
Actually, Sue Bird supports Caitlin Clark. This video is just stupid.
Who is Su Byrd?
A'ja, the fake Most VALUABLE Player, is the one who should be creating the ticket sales and views, but she does NOT, so maybe Clark is the REAL MVP because A'ja has the personality of a porcupine. Stop hating on Clark because the very has-beens who did not do their part for the last 20 years are the problem. Stop trying to gaslight us, Bird, and admit you were just boring.
