The point I’m making is that most of the people in these comments aren’t even WNBA fans. They’re just using this moment as an excuse to spread hate and racism instead of having an actual conversation about the sport. Rather than staying on topic…they’ve turned it into an opportunity to be hateful.
The WNBA was better off before Caitlin Clark because there was none of this fucking drama and racism going on. Seriously she can leave and take her fucking fans with because none of this is basketball.
I had never watched the WNBA in my life until Caitlin Clark started playing.
Not because I was against it. I just never cared enough to turn it on.
Now I actually pay attention because she is fun to watch. She plays fast, she sees the court, she makes passes most people don’t even see coming, and she has made women’s basketball part of normal sports conversation in a way I have never seen before.
That should be a good thing.
Instead it feels like half the league is annoyed that she brought all these new eyes with her.
And I’m sorry, but the stuff she deals with is insane. Basketball is physical. I get that. Nobody needs to baby her. But there is a big difference between tough defense and the weird extra stuff that keeps happening.
The funniest part is Caitlin usually just gets up and keeps playing, which probably makes people even more mad.
She didn’t ruin the WNBA.
She made a whole bunch of people finally watch it. They need to be grateful.
So you gotta be white and have a racist fanbase to get protected in this league? Where was all this for Angel? refs stay trying to foul her out and give her techs for waving, hitting the too small, and even tried to give her Karl tech. @CathyEngelbert@WNBA
How does Jaylen brown have such an amazing season and be on the trading block. How do you play for an organization that would’ve had a terrible year without your amazing play.
