Moving on from this after this post BUT Y’all calling for her to not sign her epic, go to another team. Yet… she’ll have the same problem whenever she goes cause YALL are the problem. the zero self awareness. Shut up & maybe people will want to come to Indy to play with her. 🙄
I’m appalled that the R word is returning. Listen to disabled people when we tell you that this word is offensive and rude. There’s absolutely no reason to use that word. We’ve made progress with this and it’s going backwards. Please stop using that word!
DIGGER may be the first time I’ve *strongly* disagreed with the critical consensus.
It is not subtle but it’s funny, scathing, and bleak but not nihilistic. Tom Cruise deserves an Oscar.
I highly recommend going to see it and give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ½ stars.

I think it is cool that a woman reports that she was raped and a certain type of person is like GOTTA WAIT FOR THE FACTS! And then when the accused rapists say “actually she raped us”, that same person says “this is 1000000% the truth”
FACTS! I am VERY Black, and I’ve been to at least 7 Fever games in Indy at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. I’ve sat everywhere from COURTSIDE to the 100s. I can’t go too high because I’m blind LOL 😂, but I’ve been all around that arena! The fanbase I’ve personally experienced has been extremely diverse, with tons of families and kids. I have never personally had an issue.
Y’all are letting online trolls control the narrative yet again.
And to be clear, racism absolutely exists, and anyone can experience racist treatment. But if the claim is that the Fever fanbase in Indy as a whole, or even the majority of it, is racist, then where is the evidence supporting that claim?
There are MANYYYYYYYY Black fans who attend Fever games. So if racism is supposedly this widespread inside Gainbridge, why aren’t we hearing consistent firsthand accounts from Black fans who are actually attending these games?
When All-Star Weekend was in Indy, people from all over came into the city, and we heard countless stories about what a great experience it was. So what exactly changed?
And please, I don’t want screenshots of racist trolls ONLINE. I don’t want posts from anonymous accounts. I don’t want a video of a fan engaging in normal sports banter being presented as “proof” without evidence of racist behavior.
If the claim is that racism is happening inside Gainbridge or among Fever fans attending games in Indy, then show the actual evidence of THAT.
For anyone who needs the definition:
Racism: prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against a person or people on the basis of their race or ethnicity.
Racism is serious. That’s exactly why we shouldn’t water the word down or apply it to an entire fanbase without evidence. Call out actual racism every single time it happens. But online trolls do not automatically represent thousands of people sitting inside an arena!!!
@terryrk85@WBBDaily but in the actual arena, this stuff is rare or not happening at all. KM and the other players get huge cheers, they are adored. Yes some booed SW but they were outnumbered by cheers and it didn’t happen again after that first time.
@terryrk85@WBBDaily The problem with this article and others is conflating online bigots with fans in the crowd and online fans who positively support the team. There’s some gross ppl online that have attached to the fever that have agendas and say horrible crap to and about the rest of the team.
@cc22report I think real life Fever fans get conflated with terrible people online. There’s a lot of people that have attached themselves to the Fever but they aren’t in Indiana and they aren’t at games. They aren’t true fans. They’re toxic bigots who harass people online. Big difference.
Watson IS a sexual predator and this is backed up by the number of accusers, the consistency of their accounts, the NFL’s findings (that labeled his action predatory), and all the civil settlements he paid out because of it. He doesn’t need to be criminally convicted. These cases often require a ridiculously high standard of proof to secure a conviction. Civil suits do not.
And what’s that got to do with her being an OF creator? Consent and autonomy are the keywords here and her selling content is in no way hypocritical on the issue of sexual assault and rape.
