It’s safe to say the WNBA is the most toxic and dysfunctional professional sports league in US history.
And the league is incapable of learning from its mistakes. As Joe Hoft reported earlier this year, Caitlin Clark was injurted in the 2026 pre-season opener for the Indianapolis Fever.
They had their golden goose, and they ran it over. To date, rather than provide officiating that was fair and protected Clark, the league allowed women in the league to pull, push, hit, poke, hammer, and totally abuse Clark. The beatings and abuse took their toll. No one could have put up with what Clark endured.
Watching Clark’s games in the WNBA was not any fun. Fans found themselves yelling at the refs and the league throughout her games. Clark was hammered by jealous players and no fouls were called. When Caitlin Clark complained, she received a technical foul. The WNBA is a sick joke.
The WNBA went on to physically break Caitlin Clark. It appeared that they wanted to destroy their golden goose, Caitlin Clark, and they did.
But no matter what they did, they couldn’t stop her. Here is Clark scoring 9 points in less than a minute in a game last year.
Via Dave Portnoy.
Clark, the greatest scorer and point producer when adding in points off of assists, was the best women’s basketball player in NCAA history. She crushed NCAA scoring records, and she brought a fan base bigger than any women’s basketball player in US history with her to the WNBA two years ago. Clark went on to break the WNBA’s single-season assist record and was one shy of tying the season 3-point record.
Unfortunately, the WNBA has been horrible to her since her arrival, constantly trying to downplay her greatness and compare girls without her talent or records to her.
In this series in a game last year, Clark was poked in the eye by the opposing player after grabbing and pulling Clark all game long. Then the opposing player assaulted her and pushed her. Clark tried to get away but another opponent punched Clark in the back and then another player crashed Clark to the floor. None of Clark’s teammates stood up for her when this happened.
You get the picture.
Now, as the 2026 season is ready to take off – It appears Caitlin Clark is not.
Clark is injured again.
And now the league must figure out a way to fill the seats at the games after they destroyed their Golden Goose.
The future looks bleak for the WNBA.
Things are so bad the Indiana Fever is luring fans to games with free chips!
This will not end well.

It is also safe to say that any organization comprised mostly of women, will be toxic and dysfunctional.
Who ever paid any attention to the WNBA *before* they courted political notoriety?
The WNBA is indeed completely toxic.
The reason is that it has always been a subsidized bit of political cover for the NBA, which had so many thugs, rapists, and sexual predators on the floor that it probably should have been disbanded.
The NBA runs on tv money. The league tossed some of it into the WNBA to show it is pro-women.
The WNBA has never had to earn a living. That creates an environment in which delusional fantasies can run amuck. Add overt racism and vicious resentment, and Caitlin Clark is left out to dry.
Women’s golf and tennis pay their own way. The NWSL is adamant — after two previous women’s leagues failed financially — about building from the ground up and staying solvent. The NWSL is also adamant about retaining control of its own game and not becoming a charity case for the men’s game. That doesn’t mean they’ll make all the right calls, but they ARE trying to do it the right way.
The NWSL’s strategic threat, however, is that the big European men’s soccer clubs are buying up the European women’s teams, for much the same reasons the NBA threw money at the WNBA. The Europeans have always been more subsidy tolerant than Americans, and there is enough money floating around European men’s soccer to buy all the top women’s players in the world. The NWSL has just been forced to punch holes in its salary cap to keep some top talent in the U.S. It’s hard to compete in the free market when the competition is heavily subsidized.
Who cares?
The world would be at peace if it were a matriarchal society right?
They should sell fish tacos.
...and play in Europe....she doesn’t need the wNBA...
“toxic and dysfunctional”
Kind of like modern, purple haired, tatted, and rowed-out LibTard Gals wondering where all the good men have gone.
It’s like watching zoo animals fighting in a cage. They banned cockfights, so why do they still allow the WNBA?
Where are all the feminists?
Who cares about women’s basketball?
That’s what happens when a sweet, naive Iowa white girl tries to mix it up with hood rats. Nothing in Iowa prepares one for that shit. Hope she’s already made a bundle of money and tells the league to go go F’ themselves.
“Can’t have any white girls basketball stars.......”
Hard to believe blacks wanting to play a game created by a white man.
Not watching basketball. {snicker}
The NBA is ghetto crap, too. I haven’t watched an NBA game since Chick Hearn died.
Chicky Baby! I became a Lakers fan back in the day because of Chick Hearn. And when I discovered he also did UNLV games . . .
She's done.
Caitlin Clark 'felt good' in return despite lingering back issue
It's obvious that she's still injured due getting mauled in the league the past two years.
And she's a woman so it's not like she can lift weights and build muscle like Michael Jordan did.
It's only a matter of time before CC's fans figure this out. And they'll stop going to her games.
I hope they lose their shirts. insert epithet here.
