Is There a Racial Component to the Recent Controversy Involving Caitlin Clark?
Town Hall ^ | 4 June 2024 | Matt Vespa

Posted on 06/04/2024 2:56:26 PM PDT by Rummyfan

The WNBA is finally getting eyeballs, and what we see is a bunch of nasty women brutalizing Caitlin Clark because this is what predictably happens concerning women in the workforce. Whether it be on the court or in corporate America, it’s women bullying other women that breeds actual toxicity. Clark was the first overall pick. She’s starting to play better on a very bad and rebuilding Indiana Fever team. She’s doing her job, but the rest of the league seems to have a bounty on her.

Clark won’t break and probably will soak up the intense scrutiny surrounding her impact on the sport, but Saturday’s game against the Chicago Sky bred new controversy. Clark got body-checked hard by Sky guard Chennedy Carter, who could be seen mouthing “bitch” before laying into her. The situation was compounded by Carter getting a high-five from teammate Angel Reese, Clark’s college rival, who supposedly has no beef with the former Iowa Hawkeye.

Carter was then nasty at the post-game presser, refusing to answer questions about Clark. Reese refused to speak to the media, which led to a $1,000 fine. That alone is ridiculous. This is the WNBA—answer the damn questions. It’s not hard, and it’s part of our job. The drama eventually led to Chicago Sky head coach Teresa Weatherspoon releasing a statement calling Carter’s foul inappropriate (via ESPN)...

Answer: YES!

These stupid nasty envious b*tches don't realize that Clark is going to put money in all their pockets. They are just determined to destroy her. They will fail.

And Chennedy Carter?! Never heard of her before this weekend and will very quickly forget her too.

"I'm seeing a lot of things -- players, fans not understanding who I am as a player," Carter said. "You have to understand me as a person, too. And don't just look at one tape and form an opinion about me. I'm truly a passionate person about the game, and I'm genuine. You can ask all my teammates, they've gotten to know me. They know the real Chennedy Carter. So I'm just saying, don't form an opinion off of one little clip. And you didn't even see the whole game and/or the play that led to that."

LOL! IDGAF about Chennedy (Chennedy?!) Carter and sure as hell will not devote one minute to get to know her. Don't the WNBA players realize that before Caitlin Clark they were basically a niche freak show?!

I would say yes.

The black dykes are upset that it took an attractive, straight , white woman to create interest in the WNBA. It doesn’t matter that they will get more money.

CC comes from a strong family background, played mostly against boys when younger, has had good coaching, played in the serious Big 10, and has a serious boyfriend who is an assistant with the NBA Pacers. She knows the fine and crude points of the game.

Some of the race aspect is overblown. Touted rookies in any pro sport get some hazing.

Blacks cannot be racist since they are poor oppressed people living in a racist white country.

Maybe the WNBA players hope that trashing whites will increase their popularity in white-hating China like it did for the NBA.

In the beginning democrats taught that whites should persecute and hate blacks. It took a long time but by the late 1990’s that idea had been rejected in almost all segments of society. Never a group to be dissuaded Democrats then began to teach that blacks should hate whites and that way of thinking seems to be taking hold in all left wing segments of society. Let’s hope this time it doesn’t take 200 years to undo Democrat evil.

When losers are running things, it’s ALWAYS racial, because they have no rationale for anything they do and racism always works.

Is this a trick question? Only stupid people would think there’s not a racial component to it. White girls ain’t allowed to play basketball and be good at it doncha know. Only the skreet blaque girls should be able to know dis game 🙄

So you’re saying it’s OK to assaul (to the point of falling in on the floor) any vets or newbies???? Get a grip. The WNBA was a dying breed until the WHITE chick showed up. She’s set to elevate $$$$ every player in the league but the rascists only see get YT. Animals

Nobody is watching the WNBA because of Ang3l Reese. Black WNBA lesbians are interchangeable and are not unique. I hope Clark quits and the league gets Bud Lited.
