She's white. Which in the mind of the woke sports world and press means that all the people going to see her are racists because presumably they wouldn't pay to see a black superstar....you know...like Michael Jordan...or Lebron James...or Shaq....
The way the media treated Caitlin only exposes how corrupt they truly are.
Or Jackie Robinson, or Ray Rice or Adrian Peterson.
Can’t wait to see the opinion tides turn if she comes out as a lesbian...
Media and pals have been vitriolic an just awful to Caitlin the past week especially.
That young lady is amazing!
Saw a blurb during the IA/WI game last night that the BigTen girl’s tournament next week is already sold out of ~108,000 some tickets.
Previous attendance record for same was ~48,000.
I am so tired of this.
I am so tired of this.
IIRC-—MICHAEL DIDN’T PLAY COLLEGE BALL AT N CARO.
OR—IF HE DID—HE PLAYED VERY LITTLE.
I watched the women’s championship game last year, and as someone who lives close to the University of Arkansas, I started out rooting for the SEC team LSU. It didn’t take me long to switch my allegiance. I was really disappointed that Iowa lost.
Players like Caitlin come around once in a generation.
Records are made to be broken. I’m watchings USC Freshman Juju Watkins. She seems like the real deal and a nice kid.
Girls basketball is a really rough sport. My granddaughter plays AAU and there is a big difference in rules when you play BIPOC teams.
Caitlin’s a great player and I am pulling for her but the facts are that Caitlin has played in 121 games so far in her career and Pistol Pete only played in 83, plus there was no 3 point shot when he played. If you were fortunate enough to watch him play, which I was, you will realize that he would have excelled in the current game of basketball and scored many, many more points.
She’ll have a tougher time in the wnba, where every game she’ll have the top competition in her face. She’s the latest ‘new thing’ in sports, and interest will wane. Especially if she gets slowed down by injuries.
Meanwhile, churches like ours lose Sunday school kids to sunday practice or tournaments. We lost a 13 year old girl to the bb habit about 3 years ago. Her dad (a trustee, since removed himself) encouraged this sports priority stuff. Probably because he has no sons.
True,he only won the 1982 national champ ship game for North Carolina.
I would agree. I look at that young woman and I see God Himself personified in the form of a lady basketball. I’m 63 and I don’t think I will see that level of talent again in my lifetime.
Yep! And Tagline says it with every post.
You might want to add the word player kawhill.
Of course, the MSM and our universities are anti-White
Michael Jordan was named ACC Freshman of the Year after he averaged 13.4 ppg on 53.4% shooting (field goal percentage).[48] He made the game-winning jump shot in the 1982 NCAA Championship game against Georgetown, which was led by future NBA rival Patrick Ewing.[49] Jordan later described this shot as the major turning point in his basketball career.[50][51] During his three seasons with the Tar Heels, he averaged 17.7 ppg on 54.0% shooting and added 5.0 rpg and 1.8 apg.[13]
Jordan was selected by consensus to the NCAA All-American First Team in both his sophomore (1983) and junior (1984) seasons.[52][53] After winning the Naismith and the Wooden College Player of the Year awards in 1984, Jordan left North Carolina one year before his scheduled graduation to enter the 1984 NBA draft.
