I used to referee women’s sports, they are ruthless and physical.

If she got only 3 points, maybe her team was keeping the ball from her?

I equate it to something like women’s tennis, the men’s tennis game is played on another planet, it’s so good and powerful that the average person can’t comprehend, the women’s game is much closer to how the average weekend player has fun.

Same for women fighters, if you watch the men in UFC that is a brutal combat sport of men who look like they nearly kill each other, whereas women are much smaller and fight similar to how a man would fight.

Your average high school girl fight consists of hair pulling and bitch slapping, women in the UFC can deal a blow and knock each other out.

The punching and submission parts of either sex in the UFC is not that exciting to me, I like the speed and agility of good kick to the head that immediately knocks the person out.

Clark is playing with thugs who hate her.

CC is too good for the WNBA. She's from Iowa. She comes from a good family. None of her teammates and opponents have that in common with her.

What you described now happens in politics. Good people who want to get involved are intimidated. That’s why you have no good options when voting.

The Worm’s on court skill set is shown by the media mobs’ other favorite rookie. Angel Reese already leads the league, not just rookies, in rebounds.

Dennis would dye his hair into a rainbow, wear a dress, grab every rebound, and kick the ball back out to her for another 3 point attempt


He was normal when he played for the Pistons. Greatest rebounder ever.

The WNBA will kill the goose that laid the Golden egg. CC has given the WNBA a new opportunity and unless they have a sit down with all league owners and coaches and tell them the fines will rise exponentially if they don't keep their players in line, CC will not last and will move on and the WNBA will die, again.

Envy is a driving emotion ...

Thank you. The other players envy her because she got an endorsement contract that they wish they had. She also has skills that they don't have. Government schools don't teach grammar or vocabulary any longer.

"But is this basketball or something far uglier?"

It's ghetto, it's prison, it's the violent side of dykery. Frankly.

How she deals with it is up to her, strictly a matter of personal choice. Just like taking a job in the business world and finding out you're in a den of snakes.

Fight them on their terms, or change the game?

BTW I'd bet that Caitlin dresses up just really nice...

Have you ever watched the YouTube channel called Street Beefs.

It was started in Virginia by a former Street Thug who has turned his life around by getting kids to fight in a ring to settle their differences instead of shooting at each other.

He would stage fights in the backyards of houses, anyone who wanted to fight could show up and fight, they tried to pair you against someone of similar weight.

You could fight in a traditional boxing match, MMA or other fighting style so long as another person wanted to fight that same style.

The fights are often times extremely entertaining, some of the people have obvious training, others have the idea they can fight only to get knocked out quickly.

Fine with males doing it. It’s not natural for females to fight.

Call me a “troglodyte”, but there it is.

The WNBA is probably too woke so they won't be proactive to do what needs to be done.

It will take time for her to settle in.

That was not typical. She had been scoring a lot more points this season.

Most of them are too stupid to realize that CC is making all boats rise, they just want to sink the boat they are all in.
