Rookie resentment doesn’t happen often in the NFL (It's about Catalin Clark)

Caitlin Clark has brought unprecedented attention to women’s basketball. And plenty of women’s basketball players seem to resent her for it.

Clark took an away-from-the-ball cheap shot, possibly preceded by this message from her assailant: “You’re a bitch.”

It’s a bizarre situation, to say the least (The more responsible move is to not escalate the situation, and to let the powers-that-be handle it. It remains to be seen whether the powers-that-be will.)

The one salvation coming out of this event is that Caitlan Clark’s team won the game.

Even first round rookie QBs are allowed to be treated as gofers by veterans. No one has a problem with a light hazing system.

They are resentful that a star player brings attention and potential big paydays to women’s basketball?

They hate that its a white woman doing so? They hate that she is heterosexual?

She may well help women’s basketball become more popular and mainstream, but fellow players hate her for that?

Crazy thought process in my opinion.

“The other disappointing part is not one of her teammates came to her defense, one of them should have run up there and let that woman know that doesn’t fly around here.”

And no technical foul (I think).

They’re doing this because she’s white, she’s more talented than any of them at a game that is very black and very urban, whereas Clark is a rather homespun, rural type and . . . .the blacks know that none of her teammates will confront them for it because they (her teammates) are cowards

C Clark is reportedly getting a deal of 20 million from Nike. Good for her.

My gwad, no wonder black men prefer white women. The thing who attacked her is Butt-Ugly and proves why these unattractive to men females bulls HAVE TO BECOME LESBIANS. No one likes them, and certianly no could ever love one.

Biden ought to come out and tell the WMNA blacks to stop the racist physical attacks.

Even in HS in all the sports I played on every team, I knew if something like that happened one of my teammates would jump right into the mix.

I got a technical and screamed at by the coach, when one of my teammates got hip checked into the bleachers by someone on the team we were playing, I then hip checked him into the bleachers, IMO it’s what teammates do for each other at every level of sports from HS to Pro.

I would be highly disappointed if not one of my teammates at least made an effort, maybe it’s a male thing because you rarely see female athletes fighting.

Black women are behaving badly everywhere. It’s the I am a queen thing from Black Panther. And anti white racism is encouraged

What’s the WNBA trying to do? Ruin their own organization?

I wouldn’t have guessed them to be Republicans.

seems as though some racism is happenin’ in the WNBA. And some heterophobia too. and perhaps anti-Christian bias.

maybe. But CC isn’t a DEI (”Didn’t Earn It”) draftee into the game. She is the best of the best. She earned it.

They are obviously happy with nobody showing up to their victory parades.

All I’ve seen was the attack. What was the foul that was assessed, or was one assessed?

Ecept it isn’t reversed DEI (Didn’t Earn It) because Clark earned her position.
