Very well said… CC needs to apologize to nobody…Not denying that there isn’t other great women who has played in the past, or currently playing, they all are now getting their due recognition, however that never happens for any of them without CC being who she is and always will be. She is special/ different and we all are lucky to get to witness this transformation for women’s sports!!
What a great take on Caitlin Clark thank you so much for that sensible narrative. We love her because she simply plays basketball and is awesome at it and exciting to watch.
The statement that got me: many who comment negatively never read the article and many who comment negatively on this video did not listen to it. We need more fact-based takes on everything. Unfortunately, when an issue is mult-dimensional, it cannot be easily boiled down by a speaker or truly understood by those who do not take the time (or have the ability) to full appreciate it. Yet, it those same people who appear to yell the loudest and ultimately, ignore facts. This type of thinking will be the end of us as a country if we do not reverse the current trend.
This guy speaks the truth! This young woman is a Unicorn on and off the court. She could lose every fan shes made the last few years but she will still have the whole state of Iowa. 2-3 million super dedicated fans that love this woman like she's family! This is there Queen and they ain't going nowhere!
She didnt just go woke she is being true to who she is and has always been. Anyone that actually litened to her last year knows this. She spoke on the issue several times and has always paid tribute to her heros from the WNBA like Maya Moore, Tamika Catchings, Cheryl Miller, hell even Sheryl Swoopes herself. Anyone that has an issue with her Time interview statement just hasnt been paying attention to who CC really is.
Great, insightful commentary. Thanks for sanity in the midst of insanity. As for her critics in the league, think of the old saying (or is it observation?) about crabs in a bucket. Can't wait until May.
CC need not apologize to anyone. She has earned everything she has been recognized for! She has done for the WNBA what MJ did for the NBA! And MJ would not get involved in politics either! Well done CC and I look forward to watching your every game in year two. May God bless and keep you. Those haters should aspire to be like you, like they aspired to be like Mike.
I love it when someone makes a great case, and backs it up with facts. Is the CC the greatest? Nah, that was Cheryl Miller. But she is fun as hell to watch, her deep 3's are Steph Curry worthy, her passes remind me of Larry the Legend, and she manages the media with great respect and humility.
Reality is People will not remember how many points you score, championships you win but how you make them feel. Caitlin make people feel her genuine love for the game and Women's Sports and People love her unique basketball skills.
Other non-basketball athletes could have won the award but among basketball players she fully deserves this. Not because of skin color, but because she displayed unparalleled talent, work ethics and dedication. Swoopes and this team owner are, sadly, pulling the race card - again. "you can agree or disagree but Caitlin is entitled to an opinion" No. Your opinion ceases to be an "opinion" if you are lying. Free speech mandates that we accept the right of others to be offensive; free speech doesn't mandate a free pass when people lie. In some matters, lies land people in court and EVEN big orgs end up paying millions for spreading lies. This country has had enough of identity politics divisiveness. Repeating the "white privilege" lie in this day and age can have devastating effects. She lied, therefore she is facing and will face some backlash. Deservedly so, even if she (like Steph Curry, LeBron, Luka, Nikola) is a GREAT basketball player. Do NOT gaslight people ("she did not apologize for being White").
I couldn't agree with you more. It's unfair to expect CC to be our non woke mascot. She is just 22 and has always handled her fame and herself admirably. 🎉
Caitlin is a wonderful person and a once in lifetime athlete. She is a leader whose legend is growing. Anyone who can’t see this is a Lilliputian compared to her.
Great commentary , Catlin brought the game of basketball back the fans . Women's rugby is played on a field not a court . Want to keep the fans coming get rid of the rugby
Like that " Iowa's Caitlin Clark". The WNBA still doesn't realize or appreciate what they have in Clark. Why give them any credit. It say ATHLETE of the year not basketballer of the year.
Most that are upset at her comments dont realize that its pacifying the league and more than likely some of her comments scripted under league demands. The fact of her sexual orientation and skin color in a league thats predominantly the exact opposite will always play a role....especially when her talent exceeds most.
Hard feelings? Cry me a river. Caitlin Clark is an earthquake shaking up the Black Lesbian League. They're gonna need to up their game to compete with her and the ON FIRE FEVER! The WNBA has been offering mediocre players for 25 years. Now they get a superstar and have their panties in a wad because she's so much better than them. Enjoy your MVP award for this year, A'ja - it's the last one you'll be getting. The most improved award that went to eye-poke Dijonaisse Carrington should have gone to Lexie Hull or Kelsey Mitchell, IMHO.
SHEILA JOHNSON is a top business woman but clearly this comment makes her acumen in question. Stats do not lie. Take Mystics organisation, if you take out Fever games in both 2023/2024, Mystics growth in attendance is pitiful 3.6%. Mystics attendances is up 38%. Fever and Clark is responsible for 25%😮😮😮 SHEILA JOHNSON SHOULD THANK CAITLIN BY CONGRATULATING CAITLIN NOT DIMINISHING HER AWARD.
WHATS THE PROBLEM SIR,,,,,WHATS WRONG,,,,TIME MAGAZINE,,,,WELL ITS WHAT THEY CHOOSE,,,CC DESERVES,,,THEIR CHOICE,,,,IF SOME OTHER PEOPLE THINK OTHERWISE,,,,THEN AWARD SOMEBODY ELSE,,,ITS YOUR CHOICE,,,GO GO TIME MAG,,,,DONT MIND IT,,,,
She did earn it and I agree we have white privilege… she is magical with a basketball.. I wish could be half the person she is when under the spotlight. Keep it up Caitlin…
Cracks me up they think she has privilege when Aja Wilson is the most entitled player on the court, she came from extreme wealth, in America wealth is all it takes. CC has the cold hard numbers showing her pedigree, not her skin colour.
I am white and I don't care if her comments are offensive to others. Does Caitlin have a right to say what she says? Of course, free speech. Do others have a right to feel offended? I suppose they do. The question is: does their right to feel offended trump her right of free speech? Not in this day and age nor any other place I know of. If someone wants to piss and moan about a thing all it does is show that they didn't learn their citizenship lesson very well when growing up. I am sure in time they will get over being offended though -- and if they don't? I still don't care. 🤷🤷🤷♂🤷♂
@sparkyman8249 I don't see how you being white has anything to do with it, that's why many people are upset. She is entitled to her opinion and people have the right to respond and decide whether they want to continue to watch or not. Free speech doesn't just go in one direction. Cheers.
Hands down the BEST commentary I have heard on this topic. Well said. Short and to the point.
Absolutely. Finally some sanity!
100% agree.
He can't "read between the lines".
What an outstanding commentary! It would be great if a larger audience could see it. Thank you for providing it. It’s refreshing and right on target.
This is an excellent journalist coverage of the media salad created.
Perfect, the best take on the subject

A silent majority member and Fever fan thanks you, well said.
well said
Thank you for a great commentary, she deserves all the attention.
Shout out to this post for highlighting the truth about this award.
The statement that got me: many who comment negatively never read the article and many who comment negatively on this video did not listen to it. We need more fact-based takes on everything.

Superb report. I concur!
Right on target. Thank you sir👏👏👏
Wow! I truly appreciate that summary, and I agree with it wholeheartedly.
This guy speaks the truth! This young woman is a Unicorn on and off the court. She could lose every fan shes made the last few years but she will still have the whole state of Iowa. 2-3 million super dedicated fans that love this woman like she's family!

💯💯💯💯💯
Well said!!
Couldn’t make any more sense. Well done!
She didnt just go woke she is being true to who she is and has always been. Anyone that actually litened to her last year knows this. She spoke on the issue several times and has always paid tribute to her heros from the WNBA like Maya Moore, Tamika Catchings, Cheryl Miller, hell even Sheryl Swoopes herself. Anyone that has an issue with her Time interview statement just hasnt been paying attention to who CC really is.
Wow, that is the best commentary I have ever heard defending my favorite WNBA player, Caitlin Clark!
Great, insightful commentary. Thanks for sanity in the midst of insanity. As for her critics in the league, think of the old saying (or is it observation?) about crabs in a bucket. Can't wait until May.

Well done CC and I look forward to watching your every game in year two. May God bless and keep you. Those haters should aspire to be like you, like they aspired to be like Mike.
CC= CLASS❤
I love watching her play too.
I love it when someone makes a great case, and backs it up with facts. Is the CC the greatest? Nah, that was Cheryl Miller. But she is fun as hell to watch, her deep 3's are Steph Curry worthy, her passes remind me of Larry the Legend, and she manages the media with great respect and humility.
Indiana Fever player.
Luv this! CC is elite.
That's it! 👏👏👏👏👏👌👍
I love to watch Caitlin Clark play basketball
Of course we love our Cc❤🎉 salute for this guy.
Clark is the all-time leading D1 scorer, but ALSO third all-time in assists. That's crazy.
Best take i heard so far 👌
Wonderful clip! Truth stated!
Great take 👏👏🔥
The real GOAT of WNBA CC22. shame on you sheryl swoopes.
Someone who tells what must be said, no less no more
Reality is People will not remember how many points you score, championships you win but how you make them feel. Caitlin make people feel her genuine love for the game and Women's Sports and People love her unique basketball skills.
So right Keith
Well Said!
I loved it so true
This! 💯💯💯
Well, everything he said was spot on! Nuff said!
Other non-basketball athletes could have won the award but among basketball players she fully deserves this. Not because of skin color, but because she displayed unparalleled talent, work ethics and dedication. Swoopes and this team owner are, sadly, pulling the race card - again.

Do NOT gaslight people ("she did not apologize for being White").
Well Done! Wouldn't it be nice if ESPN, ABC, CBS and the WNBA was this objective in covering CC?
She deserves everything she’s earned it all
I couldn't agree with you more. It's unfair to expect CC to be our non woke mascot. She is just 22 and has always handled her fame and herself admirably. 🎉
Caitlin is a wonderful person and a once in lifetime athlete. She is a leader whose legend is growing. Anyone who can’t see this is a Lilliputian compared to her.
Great player. But Why did CC bring up race? So tired of it.
Caitlin Clark - talented, honest and friendly!
Great commentary , Catlin brought the game of basketball back the fans . Women's rugby is played on a field not a court . Want to keep the fans coming get rid of the rugby
Like that " Iowa's Caitlin Clark". The WNBA still doesn't realize or appreciate what they have in Clark. Why give them any credit. It say ATHLETE of the year not basketballer of the year.
Let's just give every woman in the WNBA a championship participation trophy.
"Final Four" only???
👏👏👏👏

What in the f... is white privilege?
Hard feelings? Cry me a river. Caitlin Clark is an earthquake shaking up the Black Lesbian League. They're gonna need to up their game to compete with her and the ON FIRE FEVER!

Agree with all you said but the woke agenda must be stopped! I am done with her.
WNBA doesn't deserve the Savior of the league, C C the Great White Hope
She did earn it and I agree we have white privilege… she is magical with a basketball.. I wish could be half the person she is when under the spotlight. Keep it up Caitlin…
❣️❣️❣️
Cracks me up they think she has privilege when Aja Wilson is the most entitled player on the court, she came from extreme wealth, in America wealth is all it takes. CC has the cold hard numbers showing her pedigree, not her skin colour.
Does she deserve the award: YES. Are the white privilege comments devisive and offensive to many: YES

@@djangosoftwaredeveloper LOL, it doesn't have anything to do with it -- that is why I stated it. Cheers.
😂😂😂😂 … they are all crazy in WNBA … more on pettiness … they have to grow up … and be professional …
th-cam.com/video/Udz7kXYoT_I/w-d-xo.html
And I'm entitled to my opinion, sir. Caitlin whimped out. Nice dress, though, Caitlin. No longer a fan.
😂😂😂😂The MAGA nuts are going crazy over Cait....what's her name....they are coming out in the open for the whole world to see. I'm loving it.😂😂😂😂
100%
Right. CC22 is the gamechanger. Her impact the same as Michael Jordan. Its Clark era!
