I'm black and I believe Caitlin Clark is probably the best player to bring a league into the forefront and she has got me watching the WNBA hell tiger woods had me trying to figure out what is a birdie or a par lol
The fact that the biggest story in basketball, during the NBA finals is Caitlin Clark is all you need to know about her fan base. The WNBA should be touting her abilities on the court not their racist woke ideology. Something most Americans are not.
Chicago made the great one Catlin class act Clark the face of there city giving her own Wilson banter which hasn't been done since Michael Jordan making Clark the Queen of Chicago 😊🚬
@@ricblic901 I dunno...you said, "racist woke ideology" when it is conservatives who are the racists and even research shows that, though it should be common knowledge by now.
@@amythompson6431 The WNBA and it's stars are mostly black, that's a fact. Now this young star takes the WNBA by storm in popularity and is making serious change outside of the league. She's making more than most WNBA stars. Which pissed off a lot of people. A because she's white, if you disagree read some of the articles written about her. Now she's just a soft spoken person who seemingly bears no ill will against anyone no matter her treatment by others. Remember racism goes both ways and the liberals are just as racist. Calling black conservatives Uncle Toms and say they are still slaves.
Caitlyn Clark keep her mouth shut and finish the season this year and then go to Europe and make 3 million a year and let the WNBA crash and burns like it should have 25 years ago
Problem with her leaving the wmba it would probably affect her Nike contract. They may even have a cluse that might hold she there, and I'm sure that's worth much more than what she could get in Europe. Still might be worth getting sued rather then playing in a racist hateful environment.
That's cold. But being a grumpy old man myself, I kinda get it. But I hope Caitlin stays in the WNBA long enough to prove all her critics to be the fools they are.
@@dmead4106 I can see what you're saying but I don't believe that's necessarily true.... there's about 350 million Americans she's advertising too if you go over and play in the European leagues in the Russian leagues you're talking about close to a billion people that they would be advertising to under the same contract..... and a lot more little girls that play basketball on every level than they do in America they don't want those shoes from their parents.... I think Nike would probably increase her contract
Wouldn’t know what ESPN felt about Caitlin Clark because unless I have a game on that channel I don’t watch it. Once they went political instead of focusing on sports they lost a lot of viewers and it sure shows in the ratings. It’s a propaganda network now.
The so called "stars" of the WNBA are just jealous. They resent all the attention Caitlin is getting. They are childish and petty like Charles said, and they are an embarassment!
@@janicebradley9406 Just like the "RIVALRY" with Angel Reese. CC shot that down Friday night after the Fever's win over Atlanta in front of yet another record setting attendance at the State Farm Arena,17,575 folks in the stands that night. Oh and by the way State Farm has a contract with CC as well.
guys today vote will be counted twice. So vote for Caitlin for all star. We only 1k votes behind top place. Remind your friends and vote today. We have to win
Also people need to know that the All-star team is playing against the Olympic team so anyone that made the Olympics team can’t be on the All-star team so no point in wasting your votes on one of them. Instead vote for another player who isn’t on the team that is equally talented to be able to show off their skills and you would want to see get some shine & love.
With all the publicity that Clark gets, why isn't she number #1. People who watch the WNBA know the best player is Aja Wison, the top vote-getter. Clarks former teammate Kim Martin says Aja Wilson is the best WNBA player
@@kevinalford272 because majority of CC fans are children plus not everyone is actually going to go online and vote…plus you have to factor in the SC army of fans which is also why Aaliyah Boston is #3 in the list as well….with SC fans plus fever fans pushed her to 3rd place….that’s how large that fanbase is as well and how they know this more so then the new fans still getting used to this so some might only vote once not realizing they can vote daily but more so it’s children that are her fans and if they are not allowed to go online or even know about the vote then….
@@kevinalford272 A'ja is on the Olympic team so she need not be voted for since the All Stars are playing them. CC will turn out to be the #1 vote getter. I wonder if she said that in order to keep her spot on the team.
CC was not the one who flared up the race and orientation issue. Someone ELSE opened that pandora's box which TRIGGERED those people. Leave her alone. The ESPN announcers always snipe at CC during games. VERY dissapionting. 🙄😑😠
Never liked golf but watched if Tiger was playing. CC has done same for me with WNBA. It's not their ethnicity that draws fans, it's their superior talent that people are drawn to. Great analogy.
Imagine being a white guy on ESPN and every single day you talk about white athletes as your 'brothers' but rarely mention black guys. What do you think would happen.
The other wnba players who are jealous of Clark or just overt racists are turning me into a fan of CC. I don’t watch that much of espn anymore, but they certainly are contributing to adding to CC’s fanbase with their takes.
Tiger experience lots of racism, so clubs wouldn’t even let him play at start of his career. If social media was big back then it would of been seen even more
Well put her on a all white team, that way we get to see her get destroyed every game an people like you will go on rants about black people. See that is what this channel host was eluding to when folks say CC fans are racist, bigots, etc. Comments like yours.
The NBA was on tape delay, no live games, until Magic and Bird came into the league. Magic and Bird SAVED the NBA and Jordan elevated from them. CC is akin to Bird and they’re trying to portray Reese as Magic. The difference is although Magic and Bird were fierce competitors, they respected each other’s game and eventually became good friends off the court. Reese is no Magic as I’ve outlined above.
@@meb6869 "The NBA was on tape delay, no live games, until Magic and Bird came into the league." Yup, I remember staying up late on Friday nights to watch NBA on CBS. Pretty sure they did go live for the finals though, at least on the weekends.
@@meb6869 Not entirely true. The NBA Finals weren't always shown on tape delay, just in the very late 1970s and very early 1980s. The NBA had been reasonably popular before that, and title games were shown live in prime time. I wached them live for years. Drugs became a big problem in the second half of the 70s, and sadly a lot of white viewers thought there were too many black players in the league and turned away. That's why the NBA dipped in popularity, then rebounded big-time with Magic and Bird and later Jordan bringing new life and attention to the game. The WNBA didn't dip like the NBA, it has NEVER been popular. Even the gains it has made this season are huge when compared with past WNBA percentages and numbers, but still very low and modest if you look at the big picture. The WNBA will still lose money this season, and viewership for the title game will pale in comparison to other pro sports.
I'm 74 and I've watched VERY little WNBA games until now I can't wait for tomorrows game against Chicago!! I think the Tiger remarks are obviously right on. I'm amazed at the attendance of her games Love Ya Caitlin!!
It unfair to expect Caitlin to comment on anything outside basketball that is beyond her control. Jordan refused to make political or social statements during his playing days. I think one of his quotes was like hey everyone buys my merch I’m not alienating anyone.
@jcostello69 why should they, they’re athletes not politicians or social activists. They’re paid to play a sport and not hurt or embarrass their brand/team/sponsors. Nothing Clark, Jordan or Tiger say are going to change the minds of those kind of people, so why risk angering them and losing what little platform you have by making public statements. They donated behind the scenes and made differences where they could.
Anyone who's played golf didn't care what color the guy was. No basketball fan cares what color the girl is dropping it from half court. We love THE SHOT!
BINGO!! Clay you've expressed the reality that many refuse to see. CC22 is a classy lady. This, plus her values I admire will keep me /watching her progress.
WNBA was NEVER even on the radar until this young lady shook up the internet. Now, I am following this story and even plan on watching a game sometime. Maybe this upcoming one. I am suddenly interested in women's basketball. For an athlete under such pressure she handles herself with such dignity, in my day we would call her a lady.
Man THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS! Crazy thing is, me and some guys at the gym are talking about the women's league for the first time ever😂 we say the exact same thing! It's a bunch of angry black 'welfare lesbians' they are upset because Caitlin Clark is single-handedly changing the Status Quo! All she did was show up and play ball but they mad because they can see the world starting to change around them and they despise it
as a fan of Clark it does not bother me in the least what people who don't know me call me. I'm her fan not theirs. She is the only one who can change that.
wnba basketball is like watching the skill leve of a two 3rd grade teams going at it. CC plays with the skill and technique of a mens college game. Sorry, but cc skill is way above the wnba crap
the WNBA players who dislike Caitlin, seem to me to be jealous of her 28 million dollar endorsement. And the sports media are crowning her as the savior of the WNBA. I think some of the women are taking that slight by the sports media personally, and re taking their anger out on Caitlin. This situation is about money, envy, and respect! The sports media and the WNBA are benefitting from the increased interest partially because of the anger, envy, and trolling. Stop it. Remember the NBA became very unpopular during their hard foul, bench clearing fighting phase. And media persons seem to want to raise the level of the attention the WNBA receives to a level closer to the NBA, but by negative media narrative. I am losing interest in the WNBA because now the politics are coming in spite of the truth, and I just want to see the peaceful well played games without the bs. Politics, trolling and jealousy sucks.
Need for her to take a political stance. She doesn’t have r, s, hf… fans. She has fans. Does being straight mean you are anti homosexual? Of course not. So are we now equating golf and the WNBA? Don’t lose sight of the fact the WNBA is not solvent. GOLF has always been solvent, before and after Tiger arrived. The two have nothing to do with it. But they do have one thing in common, they both just wanted to play their sport. Tiger stuck with that. I hope Caitlin sticks with that. Also, most people in the Us are white and straight. So she is not a minority.
Golf had millions of fans before Tiger Woods. No, it wasn't just old people. Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, worldwide megastars. The WNBA had no fan base to speak of before Caitlin Clark. Almost nobody could name a WNBA player before Caitlin. What she is doing is on another level.
Catlin is the legendary " Great White Hope" who unfortunately exposes the ugliness of the belief that Only White people can be racist! Clarke causes their Narrative to Crumble. All racism and bigotry is Ugly...I am a retired black engineer. I
When Caitlin Clark was victims of a non-basketball incident in the form of a violent sneak attack.... the commissioner of the league called it a "welcome to the league moment" for her.
No, she's Jackie Robinson. It's not about being the first, it's just about being an exception to the establishment and facing vicious personal attacks based on nothing that person ever did.
WNBA: Help Wanted, 6'+ Black, Gay or Trans, slightly overweight, with little desire to share the ball. All others NEED NOT APPLY. We suggest "Overseas B Ball, it more to YOUR liking. How about, now that we are here, we FIX the WNBA more to OUR liking, how does that sound to them? I bet I just Triggered someone, my job here is done.
Her AND her fans aren't saying racist nor homophobic stuff. Period. Im all over CC stories and sports in general,and Ive not seen it. If its happened,its incredibly limited to a few fools. Her fans WILL call out folks being racist to CC and hating on her being straight,though. As they SHOULD.
Yea, you save been complaining for decades that your game is as exciting and as competitive as the men’s, should make the same, etc,etc (which is ridiculous). And now you have lighting in a bottle providing so much media coverage, attention, selling out larger venues, etc……and you complain…..well that’s now how we wanted to get the attention. I mostly just watch highlights…I tried watching a game….I cannot believe how many miss layups. Aren’t they like the easiest shot? You yell you’re professionals and as good as the men….i mean these aren’t dunks. Them seeing some of the press conferences. Many of these women need media training.
I didn't watch a wnba game for 15 years. I have the wnba league pass for 2 reasons. Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. Caitlin Clark for obvious reasons and Angel Reese is from my home town and I love her hustle.
Caitlin Clark is pretty much the perfect offensive PG. Her shooting and passing is outstanding. She'll drive to the basketball herself if it's on. Her decision making is really good. She's a joy to watch.
Clark's biggest achievement in basketball so far has been to show how good Sabrina Ionescu is. Ionescu is beating Clark in almost every stat category. If the issue was race than Ionescu would be facing the same problem. If it were about race explain how Candice Wiggins was treated. If it is about any DEI driven factor it is about sexuality, not race. Both variants of the anti-white narrative are being pushed by people with an agenda that has nothing to do with the WNBA. The primary reason that Clark is getting grief is her anointment as the savior of womens basketball before she ever set foot on a professional court. The narrative is based on a lie itself. "Clark is the greatest college baller evah!!! She broke Pete Maravich's scoring records!!! She had a better college career than MJ!!!!" none of which true. She had outsized ability and played against a lesser competition. Now she is playing against her peers and she is far from dominant. I blame the narrative builders for her reception and she certainly played up to it.
Simply said, they are jealous of CC as she has something they don’t have. If ever they thought they had it, CC’s coming crystallizes they never had in the first place. And that is, they have no audience, no message, no following, no endorsement, no interest from the public, no fame, no fans, no name, no stardom and no future. 11:43
Caitlin Clark just needs to try to pass, go yellow, Bleached, part N, - Rule number one in the WNBA ^ ESPN to be good you cannot be white, too bad the WNBA and ESPN Rainbow Miafa cannot give Clark the same respect that the best of BLK players have shown and are still giving to Larry Bird and the truth is that some of these same players are starting to give Clark
I love the Rhonda Rousey analogy because even the great Dana White even publicly said the no woman would ever fight in the UFC! He made that very clear..But even Dana White hD to humble himself because he seen that was inevitable..Women fighters were fighting amateur everywhere..Not to mention the business and "$$ side of it
They don’t. She gets constantly mentioned in WNBA posts and highlights. I feel like we’re playing the victim on this issue, something that conservative minded people detest
Excellent Tiger/Caitlin comparison---- both have brought new fans into sports that needed them----the crap that circles around Caitlin is a disgusting reflection of the sorry world we live in---Steven A just knows what to say to his "fans" who live in the sewer of hate and jealousy. Caitlin rises above it all and we love and support her----AND GOOD WILL WIN.

Helping her reach out to new fans is a good thing, but the WNBA's internal politics will ruin that great chance to help the sport grow. Sad.
the WNBA players who dislike Caitlin, seem to me to be jealous of her 28 million dollar endorsement. And the sports media are crowning her as the savior of the WNBA. I think some of the women are taking that slight by the sports media personally, and re taking their anger out on Caitlin. This situation is about money, envy, and respect! The sports media and the WNBA are benefitting from the increased interest partially because of the anger, envy, and trolling. Stop it. Remember the NBA became very unpopular during their hard foul, bench clearing fighting phase. And media persons seem to want to raise the level of the attention the WNBA receives to a level closer to the NBA, but by negative media narrative. I am losing interest in the WNBA because now the politics are coming in spite of the truth, and I just want to see the peaceful well played games without the bs. Politics, trolling and jealousy sucks.
Does anyone think that Angel Reese called CC and apologized for rupturing her eardrum on that hard foul? Maybe wish her a speedy recovery?
I think the eardrum was hurt on that Liberty screen earlier in the year.
@@markyg236 If that is true, I stand corrected
Need for her to take a political stance. She doesn’t have r, s, hf… fans. She has fans. Does being straight mean you are anti homosexual? Of course not. So are we now equating golf and the WNBA? Don’t lose sight of the fact the WNBA is not solvent. GOLF has always been solvent, before and after Tiger arrived. The two have nothing to do with it. But they do have one thing in common, they both just wanted to play their sport. Tiger stuck with that. I hope Caitlin sticks with that. Also, most people in the Us are white and straight. So she is not a minority.
She’s the most popular athlete since Michael Jordan. She dominates the media and she owns them
It’s the same playbook Disney is using with Star Wars.
She's white, heterosexual, pretty, has real hair and they hate her for it. That's the bottom line.
Caitlin Clark, always say,it is what it is ❤❤❤
Golf had millions of fans before Tiger Woods. No, it wasn't just old people. Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, worldwide megastars.
The WNBA had no fan base to speak of before Caitlin Clark. Almost nobody could name a WNBA player before Caitlin.
What she is doing is on another level.
Was the Tim Tebow drama similar to this? The Christian version.
Tebow was not talented, He was out of the league and out of football within a few years.
Don't forget Bobby Fischer for Chess!
In the future, all these jealous, petty people will be embarrassed. She will out live their criticism. They will have egg on their faces.
Clark is far more than the tiger woods of the wnba, she's its savior!😂🤣
Jackie Robinson was treated better.
Mr.Travis, you are 110% correct.
I’m afraid these jealous women who are RACIST will hurt her.
Catlin is the legendary " Great White Hope" who unfortunately exposes the ugliness of the belief that Only
White people can be racist! Clarke causes their Narrative to Crumble.
All racism and bigotry is Ugly...I am a retired black engineer.
I
When Caitlin Clark was victims of a non-basketball incident in the form of a violent sneak attack.... the commissioner of the league called it a "welcome to the league moment" for her.
I could care less about ESPN and their BS and she doesn’t say anything. ESPN just doesn’t fit into their lesbian/black BS because she doesn’t care
Great analysis.
No, she's Jackie Robinson. It's not about being the first, it's just about being an exception to the establishment and facing vicious personal attacks based on nothing that person ever did.
ESPN hates Caitlin because she is a normal white girl who just happens to be the most exciting player id woman's sports.
WNBA: Help Wanted, 6'+ Black, Gay or Trans, slightly overweight, with little desire to share the ball. All others NEED NOT APPLY. We suggest "Overseas B Ball, it more to YOUR liking. How about, now that we are here, we FIX the WNBA more to OUR liking, how does that sound to them? I bet I just Triggered someone, my job here is done.
I'm sorry man, but "sports media" has been broken for a long time! Always too loud, too hyper too many fools!
I am with you Clay.
Her AND her fans aren't saying racist nor homophobic stuff. Period. Im all over CC stories and sports in general,and Ive not seen it. If its happened,its incredibly limited to a few fools. Her fans WILL call out folks being racist to CC and hating on her being straight,though. As they SHOULD.
The woke media wants her to take the paige bueckers route. Hate your own skin color and cater to the wokeness
I will never care about wnba..its a sad league full of gross players..but I love and follow all things C.C. she's a great person and roll model..
Role
The WNBA is totally happy with the 'victim hood' mentality that encompasses the league & everything associated!
Just like women in general (wnba included)...don't listen to what women (wnba) say they want...pay attention to their behaviour and actions.
Yea, you save been complaining for decades that your game is as exciting and as competitive as the men’s, should make the same, etc,etc (which is ridiculous). And now you have lighting in a bottle providing so much media coverage, attention, selling out larger venues, etc……and you complain…..well that’s now how we wanted to get the attention. I mostly just watch highlights…I tried watching a game….I cannot believe how many miss layups. Aren’t they like the easiest shot? You yell you’re professionals and as good as the men….i mean these aren’t dunks. Them seeing some of the press conferences. Many of these women need media training.
I didn't watch a wnba game for 15 years. I have the wnba league pass for 2 reasons. Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. Caitlin Clark for obvious reasons and Angel Reese is from my home town and I love her hustle.
Caitlin Clark is pretty much the perfect offensive PG. Her shooting and passing is outstanding. She'll drive to the basketball herself if it's on. Her decision making is really good. She's a joy to watch.
CC and Tiger analogy is the best one. Clay, I say it in comments before you caught on to it. :)
Clay thinks he can have an intelligent conversation with SAS. He'd be the first.
Clark's biggest achievement in basketball so far has been to show how good Sabrina Ionescu is. Ionescu is beating Clark in almost every stat category. If the issue was race than Ionescu would be facing the same problem. If it were about race explain how Candice Wiggins was treated. If it is about any DEI driven factor it is about sexuality, not race.
Both variants of the anti-white narrative are being pushed by people with an agenda that has nothing to do with the WNBA. The primary reason that Clark is getting grief is her anointment as the savior of womens basketball before she ever set foot on a professional court. The narrative is based on a lie itself. "Clark is the greatest college baller evah!!! She broke Pete Maravich's scoring records!!! She had a better college career than MJ!!!!" none of which true. She had outsized ability and played against a lesser competition. Now she is playing against her peers and she is far from dominant. I blame the narrative builders for her reception and she certainly played up to it.
Simply said, they are jealous of CC as she has something they don’t have. If ever they thought they had it, CC’s coming crystallizes they never had in the first place. And that is, they have no audience, no message, no following, no endorsement, no interest from the public, no fame, no fans, no name, no stardom and no future. 11:43
Social media sucks is the difference. No Social media in the start of tiger woods era.
Caitlin Clark just needs to try to pass, go yellow, Bleached, part N, -
Rule number one in the WNBA ^ ESPN to be good you cannot be white, too bad the WNBA and ESPN Rainbow Miafa cannot give Clark the same respect that the best of BLK players have shown and are still giving to Larry Bird and the truth is that some of these same players are starting to give Clark
Wnba is trying to ask Caitlin to turn all of her friends into instant enemies- NOBODY ever does that.
Tiger got destroyed when the media had a Chance
The espn company trajectory is like that guy falling off the ski jump
back in the 70s. Intro. By ABC. The agony of defeat.
I'm so sick of being called a racist I'm done with it I used to watch Maya Moore and I'm a white man I'm done with you people
I love the Rhonda Rousey analogy because even the great Dana White even publicly said the no woman would ever fight in the UFC! He made that very clear..But even Dana White hD to humble himself because he seen that was inevitable..Women fighters were fighting amateur everywhere..Not to mention the business and "$$ side of it
We know how the Rousey story ended. Humiliation and dishonor. She couldn't even make it in pro wrestling.
Thank you for being blunt about the whole thing
They don’t. She gets constantly mentioned in WNBA posts and highlights. I feel like we’re playing the victim on this issue, something that conservative minded people detest
Because men understand business and not petty..period
Excellent Tiger/Caitlin comparison---- both have brought new fans into sports that needed them----the crap that circles around Caitlin is a disgusting reflection of the sorry world we live in---Steven A just knows what to say to his "fans" who live in the sewer of hate and jealousy. Caitlin rises above it all and we love and support her----AND GOOD WILL WIN.
