A lot of people are talking about this, but I don't think it's all raise. Another rookie, Angel Reese has gotten clobbered - she is a rookie who came in with a lot of attention, and she got clobbered too.

One thing people aren't mentioning is because of NIL some college players are making more than the WNBA players. The average salary for WNBA players is a little north of $100k. The top college players made a lot more than that. And it's only a couple years old, so most WNBA players didn't have a chance to earn this money. So, they may be mad these players make more than them.

There were twin players on Miami, the Cavinder twins, and they didn't even bother going into the WNBA, because they can make more on social media.

Ever work in a company with a large percentage of black women? They hate everyone. It’s sad.

Clark, one of the highest paid NIL, gave up another year at Iowa to go pro.

Clark and Reese were making between $1.5 and $2 Million in College with NIL.

Pretty girls. They knew that the WNBA was not for them. Unless they're willing to sleep with Brittney Griner.

They are bashing her because they are emotionally children. They are boorish simpletons.

Racists too who don't like her because she is white and they are not.

When they are old ladies wearing diapers in some piss-smelling nursing home I wish that they would have some regret at mistreating this virtuoso girl.

But being pinheads they will merely echo this obnoxious ESPN boor and rationalize it as the white girl exceeding her proper station in life, one which I suppose they believe involves being deferential to them.

There are girls – young ladies – in the WNBA…

First there are no ladies in the WNBA. I would say they are women, but nobody in that league know what a woman is, so let us just say they, penile challenged

Clark is getting the Jackie Robinson treatment.

s it fair to say that the WNBA needs Caitlin Clark more than she needs the WNBA?

After all, after all the noise that has come from the last few months because of the scoring record and her first year in the pro league, how many people on the street can name 3 WNBA players? Or 3 WNBA teams?

I wish Clark had never joined the WNBA. I was hoping for the ghetto league to just die.

Well, you can’t very well expect “jocks” of either sex (...??) to understand the concept of “a rising tide lifts all boats”.

I have read numerous times that golf was a dying game of farty old men wearing Sans-A-Belt slacks until Tiger Woods came along. How much was HE worth to the game, or to other golfers?

His worst “golfing enemy” wound up being himself. I can’t remember a single golfer saying one negative word, never mind, elbowing him.
