Then you don’t have a good memory, it was a really foul language post, you even threw in the race stuff.

[usconservative]

Oh, I see. You're in the camp "they can say it, but we can't, even when masked."

Got it.

You're dismissed.

[Bonemaker]

Ghettoball.

[Alberta's Child]

I think you're 100% correct.

It's one of the reasons why women's sports are generally awful. And the only ones that get any noteworthy TV ratings are individual events like tennis, figure skating and gymnastics.

Take it up with the chief if you want to argue with JR.

Caitlin was being double teamed....obvious foul...if the foul was flagrant or a purposeful hurtful foul....it would have been harder...the fact that a rookie is being double teamed indicates she is starting to get into their heads...but thugball is not attractive. Caitlin can do it all and needs to put on some muscle but belongs in a better league.....a smart rich investor could start a non thugball INTERNATIONAL league featuring Caitlin and thugless ball and need less support money from the NBA. Just sayin’ IMHO.

>>>I know little about basketball and care even less, but that looked like nothing more than a blocked shot and a coincidental minor collision to me.>>>

you are right, you do know little about basketball. It was called a flagrant foul too. Look it up.

[usconservative]

Go away noob.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I don’t care either way. Look it up.

[Bonemaker]

I think you are missing the point of what’s going on.

The WNBA is financially dependent on the NBA for its existence. That's a well known FACT.

Were it not for the NBA's financial "assistance", the WNBA would not exist.

Also a well known fact.

WNBA players complain they don't make as much as the male players in the NBA, where the NBA fills every stadium, sells-out every game, has lucrative TV deals, and has players that get lucrative endorsement contracts.

Given the fact that the WNBA hasn't filled a single stadium UNTIL THIS YEAR when Caitlin Clark entered, exactly how is any WNBA player entitled to command the salary of an NBA player?

The WNBA's been around 10+ years. Any other business with their business model, and being dependent on someone else to financially prop them up would've been gone YEARS ago.

FACTS not in dispute.

[small farm girl]

Not coincidental contact, VERY flagrant, not even going for the ball. It was gross from a thugess.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Let me repeat.

I.

Don’t.

Care.

Either.

Way.

Only children make a big deal out of ball games.

[Myrddin]

Angel needs a year off without pay. Total ban on playing the game for 12 months for any organization.

>>>I don’t care either way. Look it up.>>>

thanks for taking the time to tell us what you care and don’t care about. We were all on edge wondering what you care about.

[End Times Sentinel]

Pretty much the entire league is comprised of black lesbians.
Anyone who’s known a lesbian knows they hate men. Blacks aren’t huge friends of white folks.
Doesn’t take a heroic leap in logic to figure out why this is happening.
Let the league embrace the market of black lesbians which comprise less than 1% of the population. Good luck with that.

“They gave Bird a hard time too.”

Only to have to then deal with Robert Parrish.

[vespa300]

Agree but now I’m beginning to wonder....with what they are doing, seems it’s attracting more and more attention. Like an accident on the highway. People stop to look.

Could that be happening here? We sort of saw this with Larry Bird. His rivalry with Magic gave the NBA a boost that was unprecedented and certainly race was involved.
