As a woman… nothing upsets me more that’s it’s almost always men of the sports world sticking up for Caitlin instead of women… we are our worst enemies sometimes.
TIME Magazine named Caitlin Clark Athlete of the Year for 2024. BET Co-Founder Sheila Johnson just said that TIME should not have named one person but instead, should have named the whole WNBA. A few months ago her former network, BET, named Angel Reese Sportswoman of the Year for 2024. Why didn't she say that BET should have named the whole WNBA? Someone please ask her this. Hypocrisy and racism separately are bad enough. But combined, they are insufferable.
Totally forgot about this! This should make Sheila Johnson look like even more of a foolish hypocritical racist than she already did! Wow. What a disgusting woman.
@@BryantBrothers-gm1qx disrespect 😳 no player on her rookie year has more impact , influence and dominance at the court and off the court than Caitlin has . Everyone that knows basketball can see that whether they want to admit it or not!

@ weirdo ?? You are disrespectful and it shows !! Candace Parker was great pioneer of the game but in today’s game is Caitlin Clark and Ed can recognize that !
You can force people to follow players , they follow who they like , Caitlin has the star power , aura , the skills !! and it happens to be white ! If a black player would’ve won the athlete of the year we wouldn’t be taking about it . She would’ve been celebrated. Sad but true !
Caitlin Clark won athlete of year award only bacause she is White! Simone Bilels and Shohei Ohtani better than Clark this year! These crazy people claiming that we do not like NBA because too many 3-pointers! Now these Same crazy people go crazy when Caitlin Clark shooting boring 3-pointers! Stephen A Smith and crazy people want tough defence low scoring and Same people want Caitlin Clark to be free to shoot! Sabrina Ionescu versus Stephen Curry 3-point shooting and 95% of Clark's fans were against Sabrina Ionescu! These crazy right wing nuts conservatives never liked Women or women basketball they play only cheap racist politics!
I’d also toss in that Clark is having to deal with something no athlete has ever had to deal with before, not that I can think of anyway. That is reviving a league that’s been in a multi-decade coma all on her own and as a rookie. For instance, Tiger and Jordan brought an immeasurable amount of new fans and coverage to their respective sports, but both the NBA and PGA Tour were nonetheless relatively healthy before they got there. The WNBA is not. Clark is expected to take the league where it’s never been before while dealing with pushback from those in the league who resent her for what she brings. I can’t imagine the pressure she must feel.
Except she is not actually beings tasked with reviving a league. Nor is she expected to take them anywhere. The league, believes they are perfectly fine. Just look at how hard they try to prove that, despite Clark's impact. Some, in the league, would prefer she went away. I don't think she feels any of this pressure you just described. She's just playing basketball. That is all she has ever done, that is what drew her fans then, and now. No extra pressure, no extra responsibilities.
@ Don’t agree. If that were true, there’d be no need for her to talk in terms of uplifting players in the league, past and present, and to continue doing that. I’ve never heard any other great athlete speak in those terms; it always just about the game. Clearly she feels a responsibility beyond just the game itself. And others in the league are talking about the importance of the upward trajectory, while simultaneously trying to downplay Clark’s role in that. Except Clark’s not stupid; she knows she’s the reason for it. Meaning if it’s to continue, it’s going to fall primarily on her. So, yeah, I think there’s a lot of pressure there.
@@Erich3966 There is no reason for her to talk in terms of uplifting players. None, outside pandering. You may want to listen to other players in the WNBA then, they all say that crap. But, I will agree, outside the of the WNBA, you would be hard-pressed to find anyone saying that. Because the WNBA is not about sports, it's about activism.
Kinda like Jackie Robinson with baseball. This is nothing compared to that. The bad apples are less than people suggest. The league has some mouthy people but everyone has a right to voice their opinion. And we have a right to respond but the league has great players that are who CC chooses to play against. I hope we would ignore the chatter and focus on the competition next year.
Stephen A Smith and Dan Patrick always keep it real I been watching them for almost 25 years ❤❤ Stephen A Shannon Sharp Curry Durant Barkley LeBron all have stood up the last year for Catlin real recognize real
It is not only meghn kelly. There were women on espn that had so much hate for cc. Why is that.alot of them can't accept that cc is a great. Player. It should not matter if she is white and has a boyfriend. There are other white players that are married.they don't get the crap that cc gets. Just let cc and the other players black or white prove them selves on the court. Leave cc alone and let her play the game she loves.jusr like the other players they just want to play basketball.meghn and some of the women on espn. Back off.
No hate for her just don't like to see her have to be humiliated in order to receive times athlete of the year award after seeing Caitlin Clark deal with all the racism we witnessed all season.
I DID IT! I watched some of your coverage of this topic, and said if I did subscribe to anyone (which I don't do quickly), it would probably be you first. I just subscribed! I like the fair and balanced, and that everyone has a right to their own opinion, so stop trying to quiet everyone else's opinion. I saw enough! I'd already watched a few, now I'm on board. Caitlyn, like all the rest of us, has a right to have an opinion and to voice it. I don't have to agree with it, but this is where discussion can begin. I might learn something! Like most, I am tired of big media flying off mad when they hear an opinion they don't like! (Megyn Kelly) Let people have an opinion and discuss it! (Flying mad cost CNN and MSNBC. Who is next, right politics?)
I’m starting to think that people just want to be mad. If you don’t like her or what she says, don’t watch or read. Many causes are worth time and energy. Sometimes I feel like I’m watching a reality show not a basketball league.
and this is for cc fans?? so why you are not happy that we go???if im a fan im racist if im not anymore im racist so what change??anyway it's not the end of the world, I'll watch angel and root for her
When Tiger Woods ruled the PGA, no one took Arnold Palmer's Master's Jacket away. Arnold Palmer was the great of his age, Tiger elevated the PGA to a level of recognition it had never seen. Caitlin Clark is the generational great. She has set a rookie record for rookies setting records. That doesn't make Aja any less of a talent, that doesn't take away any of Diana Turasi's achievements. It doesn't take away any of Swoops championships or records. CC is next level. I have never watched any player in any sport's workout just to get a glimpse of what next season holds for us, until now. Now I can't wait until the next one drops.
No one in professional sports has ever had to deal with this. Caitlin was in a no win solution either way. She carried the Fever to the playoffs, and broke 22 rookie records and attendance every game she played. I am still disappointed that she broke every college record and bought race into the issue, she is young and has a lot to deal with. I hope everyone gives her a break about the comments she made.
He definitely deserves it no one has ever been through all he's been through from 2020 stolen from him, then his house raided, fake charges, fake indictments, came back even bigger and said he would make this time to big to rig and he did after 2 assassination attempts.
Dude. I was on Ticketmaster in the waiting room for single game tickets, I had like 33 people in front of me and when I got in the whole first two levels were GONE. I'm thinking it was already mostly bought up for season tickets! All that was listed was resale, which also came from season ticket holders, because they were there before today.
These crazy people claiming that we do not like NBA because too many 3-pointers! Same crazy people go crazy when Caitlin Clark shooting boring 3-pointers! Stephen A Smith and crazy people want tough defence low scoring NBA! Same people want Caitlin Clark to be free to shoot! Caitlin Clark won athlete of year award only becsuse she is White!! Simone Bilels and Shohei Ohtani better than Clark this year! These crazy right wing nuts conservatives never liked Women or women basketball they played only cheap racist politics! Hank Aaron hit 715 home runs in 1974 after that he got million racist negative letters! Caitlin Clark got zero negative emails! Jackie Robinson did not fight back in 1947!
That's nice, but it doesn't matter. The defense NEEDS to come black women in the league who are NOT her teammates or connected to the Fever organization.... and it has to be a BW with clout.
These DRAMATIC ppl who are throwing their toys out the window? Their logic cracks me up. They act like they are married to Caitlin & CANNOT believe the betrayal. Bwahahaaaaa. As if the betrayal was C² cheating on them. Delulu. SMDH. I say...Bye Felicia. #FeverRising
Stephen Smith is still off! The past WNBA were not mistreated by the WHITE establishment! The BLACK men in the NBA were making MILLIONS and given great media attention! WHY? Because they were supremely talented!!! I grew up watching all the past NBA superstars close to Jordan’s level of talent! I KNEW I’d Swoopes, Leslie, Bird, Parker…etc., but they all played at a boys high school level but couldn’t dunk! I’d rather go see the guys play. The past WNBA were simply NOT WORTH WATCHING when the NBA offered a much superior product! Whose fault is that? THE PLAYERS FAULT, if anyone is to blame! Caitlin Clark is at another level and her RECORD breaking performances in College and now the WBA VALIDATES my assessment! I’m not just insulting people; those are the facts! CC deserves credit because she is more outstanding; her 62 WNBA establishes this TRUTH! Who else in the WNBA has ever done that?
CC have a better Marketing as the other Players, this girls post hatespeakn no workout videos, you be right we want see basketball not Partylive or racissem jellasy or other things. girls think of it in Germany we have a word for this; Stutenbissigkeit
All you uploades do is rehash the same tired narratives over and over again,you dont focus on the actual games..these 2 been supporting her,this is not a NEW story but if someone doesnt open a door for her at a restaurant?yall make a video proclaiming everyone HATES HER...this has turned into a reality tv show...pathetically sad

I tried watching the WNBA years ago. It was unwatchable. CC brought me back after watching her play in college.
I love smith always caring about cc and speaking the truth
You have got to be kidding.
Neither one addressed the issue that started this whole thing.
her popularity is only growing, cause that's how it is
That’s the young people online we will see when the games come around if the older people still dish out the money to take their kids to the game
If you understand,why has Nike not produce Clark's shoe and other stuff?
5:42: It's not OK by those who consider the league as built by and for black players.
