If the WNBA botches this one, then Caitlin can market her services overseas and make more money than in the WNBA! 🤦‍♂️

If she goes Pro she should just go overseas and forget about the WNBA.

@SpinSpin2020 Ай бұрын

There may be money to be had overseas but overseas is dangerous which should be readily apparent after what happened to Brittney Griner. Also leave it to a fine capitalist to say better to leave your own country and go make money somewhere else. There really is more than money in this life dude.

@paulie-g Ай бұрын

@@SpinSpin2020 What happened to Griner is she tried to smuggle drugs across a national border, got caught, claimed she should have immunity because she's famous/American/wealthy, got denied on that, and got minimal jail time for it. Incidentally, bringing the same stuff *into* the US would have been a federal felony as well. I have a strong suspicion Caitlin would respect the laws of anywhere she went to play. The problem is she wouldn't get the big brand endorsement deals playing in Russia, so the fact they've got higher salaries to offer and a better environment to play in won't factor into her thinking. Yes, money isn't everything, but women's basketball really doesn't pay that much, careers are short and so she's got to provide for her retirement. It's not as if she's going to get commentary or coaching jobs after she's done playing due to who she is in the current climate.

As a Black man but also a sports fan I'm already a huge fan of Caitlin. Unfortunately social politics and racial identity is ruining sports. Imagine Larry Bird coming up in this era of time? He would get the same hate Caitlin is getting simply because his skin color doesn't make the grade. Hopefully Caitlin's race and sexaul preference won't matter. And people just sees her for the talent she is!

Racism in America is wrong but been embrace like good old “ Apple Pie “ … I agree with Social politics / America’s political environment is part of the problem … Too many people start the conversation about race or racial identity or preferences … The conversation should be about just her potential , accomplishments and how she will impact the WNBA … I believe most of the WNBA, NBA and fans overall believe she is extremely gifted .. why are you and others allow a few people with a different opinion for various reason have people in an uproar “ Like she is the Jackie Robinson of the WNBA “ …. You are feeding the beast on these platforms so why question it ?

I believe she won’t have a very tough time in the wnba. The league seems to have realised that she’s the only player who can consistently bring in fans and TV ratings. At a time when the wnba is looking at expansion they’d have to be off the rocker to hinder her. If she’s bullied/harassed and either talks about it or quits , the league may not recover for a while. There have been allegations recently which have been denied as expected but there must be a spotlight on it. Outside of the west coast and north east arenas are not filling up. Middle America is where the big growth will come from and it is not quite as liberal as the aforementioned regions. Who better to have as poster child for the league than CC22. She’s an exciting player like none other, cherishes her family, has a boyfriend in Indiana. A major reason iowa is popular is that those women are perfect role models for middle America. Cultural acceptance of progressive ideas can’t be rammed down the throats of audiences who are expected to pay up.

Noted in the video as "98%", the stifling heaviness of the WNBA's lesbian atmosphere has already caused a number of highly recruited, heterosexual, star players to simply hang up their sneakers and walk away. Add to that the jealousy which predominantly black lesbian players have for a heterosexual white girl who is already being called "the greatest woman basketball player of all time" -- it's a recipe for disaster. You can't score 30-40 points a game _anywhere_ when no one passes you the ball. CC is a physically strong athlete. But she can't stay on the floor constantly battered, tripped and slammed by so many, much larger players. Caitlin _is_ that "once-in-a-generation" talent. And she's probably worked harder at it, and for longer, than any of her peers. I LOVE watching her play. But, with great regret, I'm still compelled to predict that CC won't stay in the WNBA for more than a year or two, if that. She's too smart, and too talented in so many other ways to put up with an extremely toxic atmosphere smothering her joy.

My comment on comparing her competitors may also be off if the added eligibility equally affected all competitors. The scoring record is not comparable, though. It's not a male vs. female thing, it's just how many more games she played. It might narrow the gap if points/ minute played were looked at.

How many National Championships has Caitlin won? 🧐 People can’t comprehend Black People because we know that yo be the BEST you have to BEAT the BEST by WINNING. 😋🏀

Who cares? How many championships did Larry Bird win? Yet he is the clutchest player of all time. He and Magic saved the NBA. The national championship in college means nothing and her sponsors know this. She is the best there is or ever has been in Womens hoops.

Look at WNBA attendance figures relative to U.S. population increase. It went from nearly 11,000 per game at the peak, down to around 7,000. Kaitlin has two things lacking in the WNBA, discipline and conditioning. Some of the taller girls could learn to do flying dunks if they lost weight, hit the weight room, and developed their vertical leap. They instead opt for a comfortable if somewhat plodding team game. Nothing wrong with it, just brings in fewer fans.

One thing that everyone seems to be missing is viewership. The '70s was not a good time for the NBA on television. Reports of drug use by a lot of the league stars turned more eyes to the college game. NBA games were televised, but not live. They were tape delayed. Then 2 guys game into the league and transformed the way the game is played and how the games were broadcasted. The limited viewership of the NBA in the 70's seems to parallel the viewership problem with the WNBA. Most American's don't care about someone else's sexual preferences, unless they are constantly hammered about the struggles of being lesbian/gay/trans. A vast majority of American's face hardships daily and continue on without much complaining. Caitlin being straight should not be made a big deal either. Each league had an issue that seemed to impact the ability to gain viewership. She has the opportunity to bring a ton of eyeballs to a league needful of the attention and the money that will bring. Add Angel Reese, JuJu Watkins and Paige Bueckers arrival into the WNBA one can see an excellent transformation at hand. The current WNBA players need to worry less about politics and enjoy the attention these players will be bringing into the league. More attention will increase pay, viewership, and endorsement opportunities for league events. Hating on players coming into the league over issues that have nothing to do with their talent, will only hasten the death of that league.

I think it will be fun to watch plum and Clark and turasi and Clark and I think Clark and Ionescu could end up being rivals….

This is NOT the best female basketball player. Reese and LSU were better last year. The UNDEATED Game Cocks and DAWN STALEY were better this year. And both have the CHAMPIONSHIPS to prove it!

I can fully understand the females desire to be viewed as equals but chest bumping (ouch) just shouldn’t be part of the equation, leave that to the guys.

Concerning the comments of multiple female talking heads on Caitlin Clark, remember the sage words of Al Bundy. "Don't try to understand women. Women understand women, and they hate each other."

@fullfradi95 Ай бұрын

I hope Fever will stand behind her on the court (with same value players and teammates who will let her cook and handle the ball) and off the court on political side , she can carry team if need it , its just she need the right support next to her. If WNBA and Fever mess up this chance to increase viewership and revenue with CC , i think it over for WNBA

There's widespread sexual abuse that happens in the black community that helps women into the arms of other women later in life. That's why it's so common in the WNBA.
