Go Blue. Michigan VS Everybody. Detroit VS Everybody.

Full quotes for context. See you in September.

[Michigan Metal 〽️ @Metaleka_]

Here’s the full video of what Bryce said.

I’ll admit that things were taken WAY out of context (no shit dumb fuck) with the clip posted.

Bryce carries himself as a leader.

He talks about how he will do whatever to win for the TEAM.

I don’t see any problem with it.

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

People love to take the quote out of context. By people, I mean people from Ohio. Take that with a grain of salt. Bryce is going to be great. He is already the best recruit in the states history. His legacy at Michigan is writing itself soon ⏳

[The Buckeye Nut @TheBuckeyeNut]

Michigan fans, serious question:

Has Bryce Underwood already secured his spot as the greatest player to ever come out of Michigan? 😂

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

Framber has been disappointing this year. What a bad spend of money by Scott Harris. He isn’t even in our “Playoff Rotation.”

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

Can’t make this up. Go trade for a couple of bullpen arms and let’s go make the playoffs. I’m in. Tigers are getting gritty.

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

The Detroit Tigers bullpen is awful. It feels like it’s been awful my whole life.

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

Michigan will once again walk into next season with Natty expectations. Can they finally breakthrough in hockey like they have in Hoops and Football? #GoBlue

[Cam Robinson @Hockey_Robinson]

The Landon DuPont sweepstakes have come to a close.

The presumptive first overall pick next year will head to Ann Arbor and play for the Univeristy of Michigan.

Massive get.

[Dave Portnoy @stoolpresidente]

Let’s keep in mind only 1 school has won both a football and basketball natty since the advent of the college football playoff system. That school is Michigan. I know we expect greatness every year and undying loyalty but we are still the most successful program in the country

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

Thank you @CoachDustyMay You will forever be a National Champion. Go Blue!

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

Tigers starting to find ways to win games….. never count them out.

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

Jahmai Jones might not be good enough to play for the Whitecaps. Why is AJ Hinch trying to lose?

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

@UnderdogNBA @MarcJSpears @DetroitPistons Got to at least consider a call, right?

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

Might be the last gasp for the Tigers this weekend. 3 game set against the Division leading… White Sox?!? Must win 2, preferably 3. Less than 2 and I’ll start looking at Skubal packages and crying myself to sleep. It will never be enough.

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

IMO - the Tigers have until the All Star Break to get themselves firmly back in this mess. They played better for about a week but still have ground to make up and need to stay healthy. Baseball is a long season and getting hot for a few weeks can turn the ship around.

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

I have been lucky enough to go to a lot of games at CoPa in my lifetime. Tonight was a bizarre experience. Eight home runs and the ball felt like it was pulled by a magnetic force over the fence. Tigers win again. Could be a wild ride these next few weeks.#Gritty

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

Tigers getting healthy and winning. Detroit never counts the odds.

[CCFC-New season @sohali2012]

Every team is going after Caitlin Clark in isolation more than anybody to foul her out. Bad coaches allow this on star players only. Those coaches get fired. Nobody is even close to CC iso’s in D. Good coaches don’t allow this by providing help or hiding ‘ the star in the D. This is why I want an NBA coach to come to the Fever.

[Sports Patriot @SportsPatriotUS]

I’m going to say this as calmly as possible:

Watching Caitlin Clark in the WNBA has become genuinely hard to stomach.

Not because she struggles sometimes. Not because she makes mistakes. Not because she gets criticized. That comes with being great.

It’s hard to stomach because it has become obvious that the league, the officials, the media, the players, and even her own organization have all decided that the most important thing is not letting Caitlin Clark become too big.

And that is insane.

This league was handed the most marketable, electric, revenue-generating player women’s basketball has ever seen, and instead of building around the moment, too many people seem obsessed with humbling her.

She gets fouled. Held. Hit. Cheap-shotted. Mocked. Targeted. Then when she reacts like a normal competitor, suddenly everyone wants to analyze her attitude.

No.

Her attitude is not the story.

The story is that a generational player is being treated like a problem by the very league she helped drag into mainstream relevance.

This reminds me of the worst kind of youth coach... the one who sees a special player, feels threatened by her talent, and slowly drains the joy out of her in the name of “teaching humility.”

That is what this looks like.

The freedom she played with at Iowa is disappearing. The fire is still there, but the joy looks damaged. The confidence looks weighed down. She looks like someone constantly fighting the refs, opponents, narratives, coaching decisions, jealousy, and a league culture that should be protecting its golden opportunity instead of resenting it.

And let’s be honest: Stephanie White has not helped.

Benching Caitlin Clark randomly when she is controlling the game tempo, or having your best shooter off the floor in critical game ending minutes when a victory is within reach is basketball malpractice. Limiting her rhythm, downplaying her greatness, benching momentum, and treating her like just another piece instead of the engine is absurd.

You do not take a player who changed the economics of your sport and manage her like you’re afraid her greatness might offend the room.

Nike deserves criticism too. Other players get signature shoes rolled out with urgency, while the biggest draw in women’s basketball is somehow still waiting on that signature shoe. That is not confusing. That is revealing.

Fans are not stupid.

They see the fouls.
They see the double standards.
They see the jealousy.
They see the media resentment.
They see the league benefiting from her popularity while refusing to fully embrace her.
And here is the part the WNBA better understand quickly:
People are not tuning in to watch Caitlin Clark be humbled.
They are tuning in to watch Caitlin Clark be great.
If she walked away tomorrow, the fans would follow her. The sponsors would follow her. The energy would follow her. The high salaries and the charter jets would follow her. And the league would be forced to confront the uncomfortable truth it keeps trying to avoid:

Caitlin Clark did not need the WNBA nearly as much as the WNBA needed Caitlin Clark.

At some point, her family, her agent, and her team need to ask a hard question:

How much longer do you let a league profit from her while allowing the culture around her to beat the spirit out of her?

Because from the outside looking in, this does not look like normal adversity anymore. It looks like abuse.

It looks like a league trying to break the very player who made millions of people care.

SGA is the best player on earth. Wemby is the best player in the galaxy.

We were done from the moment Mason announced that Ausar Thompson was a Tennessee Volunteer

[Jackson Carmoney @mgojax]

It has felt like the Pistons have been the better team this series. Lots of blown leads and bad officiating has this series at 3-3. Game 7 on Sunday, how do you not love this?
