Shane Gillis getting hit with the real ones 💔

His friend Ron (battling Stage 4 colon cancer) telling him he loves him and how proud he is — even if it’s the last time.

Shane trying to hold it together... then the sunglasses go on.

This is the side people don’t always see. Respect.

🚨 Caitlin Clark has received the most flagrant fouls against her of any WNBA player since entering the league.

And that’s only the ones that were actually called. How many more hard hits, unnecessary contact, and dangerous plays went uncalled? Player safety should matter.

The captain of Iran’s National Team, Mehdi Taremi, calls out FIFA and the U.S.:

“This is a disaster World Cup. We can’t stay in the country and have to travel every time we play without any recovery. Now we can’t stay in Seattle and have to return to Tijuana. This is not fair.”

[Kaitlyn 📊🏀 @zulueditsae]

Angelica Suffren needs to be investigated ….when reffing a Caitlin Clark game these are the numbers:

May 24, 2025 vs Liberty :
- Liberty FTA 32 vs Fever FTA 15 (-17)
- Clark suffered an injury this game that kept her out for over 2 weeks.

June 14th, 2025 vs Liberty (again):
- Liberty 30 FTA vs Fever 16 FTA (-14)

June 6th, 2026 vs Liberty (AGAIN):
- Liberty 40 FTA vs Fever 15 FTA (-25)

June 24th, 2026 vs Mercury:
- Mercury 33 FTA vs Fever 19 FTA (-14)
- Clark injured during game
- Egregious miss on a flagrant foul on Clark where the ref said, they “didn’t see it”

This to me looks like you saw it….

It is amazing that @CaitlinClark22 who has brought so much publicity for the @WNBA has to take so much abuse from many of those that she has helped financially since her arrival .The physical pounding she takes is totally UNACCEPTABLE! https://t.co/PdJO1xl773

[Christine Brennan @cbrennansports]

A fist to the throat. A suspension that is way too lenient. My @usatodaysports column on what Alyssa Thomas and other WNBA players have done to Caitlin Clark, the most famous, marketable and important women’s pro team sport athlete in history.

Here’s the main ref who has called against Caitlin Clark multiple times and issued multiple techs. Amy Bonner. Let’s make this WNBA scum of a referee famous. Indiana Fever with the W in a very ugly game.

[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.

[Courtside @courtsideapp]

Of course that’s your contention. You’re a first-year grad student. You just got finished watching some Jordan propaganda documentary, probably The Last Dance, and now you’re convinced nobody will ever touch him. That’s gonna last until next month when you actually start looking at the numbers, then you’re gonna be talking about LeBron leading both teams in every major stat in the 2016 Finals and coming back from 3-1 against a 73-win Warriors team. Then next year you’re gonna be in here regurgitating longevity stats, talking about 40,000 points, being elite for over 20 years, eight straight Finals appearances, and carrying absolute roster disasters to June every season. You’re gonna realize the greatest player ever isn’t just about highlights and sneakers it’s about being the best overall basketball player for the longest period of time, and nobody in NBA history checks every box like LeBron James.

As @ReneeMontgomery gets more and more opportunities due to the boom in Women’s Basketball, her cousin, and so called “media member”, continues her tirade against the Indiana Fever and the White Girl who she repeatedly claims didn’t win nothing.

. @WNBA @IndianaFever

This is an embarrassment and unprofessional.

We want to make sure the girls get what you owe them, but I ain’t watching if it’s those girls. Pathetic.

Here's why Luka and SGA aren't in the same stratosphere when it comes to the way they're being guarded & on-ball gravity. I think Luka's a better scorer too, but when it comes to playmaking and creating wide open shots for others, they're light years apart.
