Caitlin Clark should win the WNBA MVP.
1st Woman EVER in WNBA history to have back to back 30 point and 10 assist games.
6 career games of 30+ points and 10+ assists. The rest of the WNBA has 4 in league history.
Only Woman EVER to have 800 points and 300 assists in a season.
@jasonwhitlock Say what one will of Vince McMahon, but the man possessed an uncommon gift for monetizing emotion. He never pretended professional wrestling was pure athletic competition; he was transparent about its scripted, theatrical nature.
the #WNBA is growing fast, but a lot of the new fans turning up are bringing a completely different vibe than what the players and old-school fans are used to.
Andy Kaufman walked onto Johnny Carson’s show pretending he was terrible at impressions then pulled off one of the wildest transformations late-night TV had seen.
He starts as Foreign Man, nervously doing deliberately awful impressions of Archie Bunker and Ed McMahon. Carson and the audience are basically watching a guy who looks completely out of his depth.
Then he says he’s going to do Elvis.
He turns around, changes his clothes, fixes his hair, turns back around and suddenly he’s Elvis.
The voice, the movements, the lip curl, the confidence everything changes. The audience goes from laughing at him to screaming for him.
And just when you think the Elvis impression is the entire joke, Kaufman snaps right back into the awkward Foreign Man character.
That ending is what makes the whole thing work. He made the audience underestimate him before showing them exactly what he could do.
Was Andy Kaufman a genius at controlling an audience, or did the shock of that Elvis transformation make the performance seem better than it actually was ?
Steve Martin was always great on talk shows because he would slowly sneak in a big comedy bit and then you'd have absolutely no idea how far it would go 😂 wait til the end
BREAKING: Enes Kanter Freedom just told me what happened with him and Natasha Cloud that led to his ejection.
"Sophie Cunningham shot a three, and I put my hands up to celebrate... Natasha came back and started screaming and yelling and said, ‘She’s not gonna sleep with you."
@jasonwhitlock Its a lot for a kid to deal w:
