Funny that all the attention to the WNBA was after Clark started playing ... wonder why all that other talent didn’t bring in the big bucks from increased attendance.

I’ve seen so many players of color that are equally as talented,

so they all set new records and were ignored, is that it???

feh

ENTIRELY CORRECT

I am female

I like sports

I LOVE auto racing

I WOULD NEVER HAVE WATCHED 30 SECONDS of a WNBA game if it hadn’t been for CLARK.

Clark is woke. She thinks that it's not their fault that everyone is bullying her. She went to Iowa, a liberal school.

Thanks for mentioning that. Too few at FR realize she bowed the knee to woke in that Time magazine article.

Am I the only person in the world that thinks the WNBA is pure garbage with or without Clark? Why would anyone watch that? Even if it only had white players, it would still be trash. Not that I am advocating for that. Just making the point that the entire league is worthless. They couldn’t even beat most boys high school teams.

Caitlin Clark is talented. She's the female version of Stephen Curry.

They couldn’t even beat most boys high school teams.

We watch women's tennis. Or college softball. I think the criteria is basically this.

Is it entertaining?

Yes. Caitlin Clark is entertaining to me, and I am not generally not sports fan, let alone a women's sports fan. She's obviously hugely talented. Also, it bothers me that she is treated like garbage by racist black WNBA players. She deserves to be liked, famous, and rich.

High Flight

By John Gillespie Magee Jr.
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
of sun-split clouds,—and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of—wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there,
I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air ....

Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue
I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or even eagle flew—
And, while with silent lifting mind I’ve trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
