She's only stuck with Indiana for 4 years. She can pick her team after that, and pick one with the support that allows her to thrive.

Clark is not going to survive in the WNBA and it's not due to her lack of talent. Fans had unrealistic expectations for her coming into the WNBA. Her teammates haven't played well enough to draw pressure away from her. Her coach seems to be an abject moron who is hellbent on neutering her aggressive style. The officiating is atrocious on a good day, biased AND atrocious seems to be the norm. The entire league is toxic, petty/jealous of her and delivering cheap shots and dirty defense. Now she's apparently responsible for not stopping comments that are allegedly racist and homophobic in the eyes of those who see everything as racist and homophobic.

If there's ever been a "can't win" situation, this is it.



She'll be fine.

She will give them blood, and they will love her for it.

That's why I thought the MrGo30 skit about CC was so accurate, plus who doesn't appreciate a "Thief in the Night", NO Saints, and Merchant of Death reference?

Catalin Clark continues to tear black Americans apart.

It's 2024 and the most controversial figure in sports is a big white girl from Iowa playing basketball.

23-years after 9-11 and you gotta ask whether the terrorist won.

For those who don't follow (99%+ of sports fans) Swoops on her podcast about the NBA congratulated the Fever for turning themselves into a playoff contender, and specifically 3 players…. none of which is their best player, Clark. It was both petty and dumb.


The more of these black racists who discriminate against Clark only because of the color of her skin, the most they kill any long term hope for interest in their league outside of those rooting for Clark to continue proving them all wrong.

Sheryl Swoopes is the best female basketball player to ever come out of West Texas (and maybe the entire state)...and unlike Caitlin Clarke.....Swoopes led her no name school to the National Title.

Sheryl Swoopes is quite possibly the greatest female basketball player to ever come out of the state of Texas.
She is a legend in West Texas for her exploits in Lubbock and Brownfield.

Swoopes was a 4x WNBA Champion, and 3x league MVP of the WNBA.

She was the MVP of the 1993 Southwest Conference basketball tournament held in Dallas after she scored a SWC record 53 points in the SWC title game.

Swoopes followed that up by scoring 47 points in the 1993 National Title Game leading Texas Tech to an 84-82 victory of Ohio St.
She was named the Most Outstanding Player of the 1993 Final Four.

I was a big fan of Sheryl's, and agree she is in the argument for GOAT.

Unfortunate that doesn't make up for her showing a real ugly side toward this young talent who has done Sheryl no wrong, and it sure as hell appears the only thing Caitlin is guilty of is being white.

Newsflash. There are still far more white people than black in the US that purchase Nike Products. There are far more straight people than gay people that purchase Nike products. Brittney Griener is heinous and sounds like a man. That's not marketable

The GOAT is entitled to her opinion on Clarke is she not?

You don't get to be that accomplished without being incredibly competitive. I think you guys are reaching playing the race card.

Except she has yet to say a critical thing about her from a basketball standpoint.


Unless you count her criticisms of CC as basketball when she said CC was older than the college kids she was playing against, and that because of Covid she had longer to acclimate those career statistics - both claims which proved verifiably false.

Once you're on record reaching for reasons to criticize the same player over and over again, and you never reference basketball, it gets pretty difficult to say it isn't personal. And when it's personal against someone you don't appear to have ever met - it's fair to start asking why you hate this girl for no obvious reason.

If roles were reversed, your opinion would be completely different. Almost like race plays a factor in how you judge people. I think there is a term for that.

If Wayne Gretsky recorded public shamings of anyone with dark skin that dared play his game you'd be cool with that? You would be on here defending them against any criticism? You say a GOAT is entitled to their opion, right?

Yeah, he's got no argument and can't defend the WNBA's and many black people's racist hatred for Clarke. Putting up HOF numbers entitles you to be a little racist if you're black /Libs

You Karens are reaching on the race card.

Once you have to start with straw man arguments I can tell the outrage is manufactured. You guys sound like a bunch whiny little girls.

Did Sheryl Swoopes call Clarke a white b***ch like Pat Mcafee?
I'm curious as to where the racism claim is coming?

Karen,

Quit playing the race card.

Does Michael Jordan have to bow down and kiss Luka Doncic's ass?
As great as Luka is........Jordan is a more accomplished player.

Sheryl Swoopes doesn't have to kiss Caitlin Clarke's ass.
As great as Clarke is....Sheryl Swoopes was a more accomplished player.

I need you some of you Soy boys to produce a little more evidence of racism rather than just relying on your feelings and crying about life not being fair.

You may be right. We should probably just chalk this up to petty female jealousy. A bunch of mannish ugly dykes don't like the spotlight on some newby white girl. Their league is pure welfare from the NBA so they could give a crap about increasing viewership.

CC is the combination that makes the idiots like Swoopes hate her so much.... she's white, straight, and Christian. Oh, and she's one of the best players in their league.

Griner getting caught bringing weed into Russia and a big white chick from Iowa is the biggest thing to happen in the entire history of the WNBA.

Newsflash ....women ( of all races and cultures) tend to hate on women that are younger and prettier than they are. This jealousy and envy is encoded in their DNA.

What I need from you guys is some evidence of Swoopes diminishing Clarke because of the color of her skin.
For example:
-Gilbert Arenas is constantly hating on European Players.
-Pat McAfee called Clarke a white b****.
-Montrez Harrell once called Luka Doncic a b**ch ass white boy.

These are all concrete examples of racism.
