Okay, being from Iowa I can understand…but the other two? Come on, man!
She just signed another with Wilson I think
That’s too bad 😎
White, straight, talented, deserving and not full of hate, no wonder she stands out.
“Cailtin fits a very comfortable narrative for a lot of people in the United States,” she said. “She comes from the heartland. She’s an amazing talent. She’s also a white, straight woman, right? There’s not a lot of things that would make people feel uncomfortable with that person being successful.”
UMass has a lab for Inclusion and Diversity in Sport?! WTF?! I wonder what the lab fees are...
The wnba finally has a role model
haters gonna hate hate hate. or as Aesop said
You can’t please everyone, don’t try.
Most of the future trans-WNBA stars will be better.
LGBTQ, woke, politically correct nonsense does not help sell anything and leaves such a bad taste in most people’s mouths that they will avoid any sponsor who advocates their crap.
I have never heard of Caitlin Clark previously, but she looks like a good example for others and has obvious value for sponsors. But never underestimate the stupidity of our leftist media!
Five or six really good men basketball players should band together and go to a small Division 1 basketball school. They should claim to be female, although respecting women’s privacy, etc., and go out for the women’s basketball team and win the NCAA Women’s basketball championship. That would stop all this nonsense about allowing men to compete in women’s sports.
This isnt a case of glamor overriding sporting talent. She’s a pleasant looking young woman, but no great beauty. This isnt (much) about celebrity sex appeal.
When I think of the WNBA, I think of WNBGay. It’s negroid sour grapes because she’s getting attention for her play.
maybe she needs to take a Larry Bird trash talking course.
“White, straight and from Iowa.”
I couldn’t imagine anything better
“her $28 million sponsorship with Nike in 2024 is more than ten times Michael Jordan’s first deal with Nike 40 years ago. He didn’t account for inflation, by the way.”
I believe that’s about $6 million more than Nike paid colin kaepernick- for doing nothing
Sounds like some of the WNBA nappy headed hoes ain’t real keen on her.
“I mean, you got the first mainstream White-American who is athletically talented and white and clean and a nice-looking girl....I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”
“Nicole Melton, co-director of the Laboratory for Inclusion and Diversity in Sport at the University of Massachusetts, agrees.
“Cailtin fits a very comfortable narrative for a lot of people in the United States,” she said. “She comes from the heartland. She’s an amazing talent. She’s also a white, straight woman, right?”

Nicole, you left out perhaps the most important part.
Caitlyn Clark has OUTWORKED her competition for years. All the talents and attributes one is gifted with by God doesn’t mean diddly if you don’t FOCUS and WORK HARD.
They are as bad as muslims thinking once they have taken over something its theirs forever. Cannot begin to grasp that her coming to the WNBA will help everyone. Forget about grasping that if they treat her poorly/drive her out it will kill what little interest there is for it.
* still think she should have gone with the Big 3 and collected the endorsements.
Minority signs multi year deal with Wilson

Racists complain
If Caitlin brings in more people to the ever-struggling WNBA then that should be considered a good thing.
Black dykish lesbians are not filling the seats at WNBA arenas. Maybe they need to get more diversity in their fan base.
