Can you do a video about the sixers
Frank you aren’t a smart guy
@@rhetoric3701 why? he nailed it .
@stevecourtois3741 You won't get a response. Probably because it's racist for youtube to post.
I agree with you, he did nail it.
I’m so glad CC is wise and doesn’t give into the nonsense of the WNBA her silence is killing them.
but why is the owner silent about it!! Is he too old to see the cash cow, the opportunity to try something new??2 3 young ones plus 4 5 6 experienced hungry players and it works and whoever she doesn't hit 20 times it doesn't matter, it's the whole thing, she needs that too environment to it. That's how it goes with all big players. If they're not careful, they'll be destroyed. from these old women. these jealous furies!!! There is nothing worse in the world than jealous women, my mother always said son!! if you meet a woman like that. run for your life,, ,,,,,
I love you're quote 😅
When your former stars are talking trash about your biggest revenue stream in league history, you know the WNBA is beyond cooked
agreed they don’t care about generating revenue too caught up
What biggest stars talked trash about anyone here?
I just can’t with Caitlin Stans.

@@liquidmark5081 hopefully that gets you laid somehow.
@@liquidmark5081she has a lease in all these WNBA players minds. May she keep stunning the WNBA with her incomparable talent and continue to lease space!!!! Caramba!!!
If you can hoop you can hoop. Me and many others don’t care about your skin color. Clark can flat out ball
Yep…that’s what it all boils down to…as it should be
unfortunately they let jealousy run laps though their brains and she is not aligned with the norm in wnba
sad to see, i just wanna watch basketball as is
@@FrankMichaelSmithThis is America so that’s not what it all boils down too.
They are going to crucify their messiah!
Those players are a bunch of ungrateful people, they can see a good thing even when is beneficial for them!! Caitlin is bringing in the money , the eyes and the recognition they were asking for it and they still bitter because it came from CAITLIN LOGO CLARK !!!
THANK YOU FRANK for saying what cowards like Colin Cowherd and Nick Wright won’t: Clark is 100% being attacked by her own league for refusing to participate in unnecessary politics.
It’s such a shame that someone as distinguished and self-made as Cathy Engelbert would essentially sanction the WNBA to target Clark, who is the best thing to happen to the league possibly ever. When will people learn from ESPN, Disney, and all other big names that attempted to please the political masses and ended up flopping on their faces?
Okay in defense of public media members
Saying this is career suicide
Everyone agrees she is being attacked for a really questionable reason
The W was full of personalities that were hard to like even before CC. This just shines a brighter light on them.
Clark Effect is shining a light on many big issues in the WNBA and women’s sports in general. It will be interesting to see what happens.
hopefully some trans athletes will join you watch what would happen . they cannot complain they promote it
I'll be responding to as many comments as I can over the first 8 hours or so
I'm sad that I missed the window of opportunity to connect with you directly, but I have to say this is one of the most valuable posts on anything basketball that I've seen and I think you did an awesome job. I'm gonna spend more time with your channel because you remind me of the guy from the Goatiology he's been doing a great job as well and you guys are right there in terms of your understanding of the philosophy and dynamics of the sport.
Jealousy
@@JeremyCourageappreciate you Jeremy. I’ll be posting 1 long form video every week 📈
Thank you for talking about the truth of the matter, instead of also making it about race.
Outstanding content! Just shared this on my social media feeds. Keep up the great work!
Much appreciated!
This is one of the videos of all time.
Great job man! The video really was captivating and interesting.
Beautifully edited. Great job FMS
thanks man, appreciated as always
CC is a good example. She does not complicate things and she just moves on to do what she is best on ... basketball❤.
Great Video keep up the Work
CC might be my favorite basketball player period. Women’s basketball has been a breath of fresh air over the past 2-3 seasons. And Its not just CC, Paige Buckets, Juju, and the entire UConn women’s team. Women’s basketball had been doing its thing until the wnba ruined it all.
The WNBA is so uncomfortable with the two most likable players, U. of Iowa's Caitlin Clark and Kate Martin. What does this say about the WNBA?
Jealousy will never go away!
I can't wait for the inevitable Clark vs. Bueckers arc. Clark has always been better but Paige is on the come up and she has the approval. They faced off before but nothing compared to the potential of what could happen if they both get marketed.
God forbid a girl wanna play basketball and not get into political bullshit
This is so well put together man. Great work
1st: @FrankMichaelSmith you are awesome and I love your content. You are always telling it like it is and that is rare these days. GOD BLESS.
As someone who went to the same high school as her, ( she graduated right before my freshman year) and knows her family, it is not a shock that all she wants is to play ball, and be the best at it. The Clarks are family that values their privacy and hard work.
If the WNBA doesnt want her, they will be the ones that suffer.
Imagine if a dude showed up to work, and everything changes for the better.
More money.
More recognition.
More possibilities for what was a bleak future....
Imagine dudes start bodying him headed to the bathroom for reasons beyond reason. Imagine dudes start talking trash about him to the boss....
Imagine you are the best at the world at what you do and have been for a while and some dude from Indiana who is also amazing but not as good starts making way more money than you. I can understand it.
@@YungSswagg who are you talking about?

Woke ruins everything it touches.
I like these long form videos better tbh. Got me to sub
2:30 for real how racist and slow can the media continue to be to not cover the talent in other races but only show black people as bad because a group of black men in Tennessee robbed a 7 11- Ex then that same news story is believed to be the way every black person wants to be when it’s just so twisted. I applauded her for what she said I really do because if it wants true I don’t think she would have said it and along with other women who are not even in the NBA
great video man
They want her to be the savior of the league and if they don't knock it off she will leave and say fuck it
To start, this is a very well-edited video. However, videos like this contribute to the toxic discourse surrounding Clark. In this deep dive, many points lack nuance and merely rehash the same talking points about Clark.
First, the claim that 'Clark is targeted because she isn't black, lesbian, or an activist.' There are indeed players who dislike Clark, with Reese being a notable example. However, their criticism isn't primarily due to the factors mentioned; it's more about her receiving attention and endorsements despite not being one of the league's top players. Some jealousy stems from this objective comparison based on athletic accolades. Furthermore, Clark is accepted in the WNBA, as evidenced by praise from players like the black lesbian guard from Dallas, mentioned on Shannon's podcast with Ocho. Positive comments like these should be highlighted more in deep dive videos, rather than focusing solely on negativity.
2. "The idea that Clark's endorsements have nothing to do with her race is often misunderstood. Extremes exist on both sides of this argument. On one extreme, some suggest she only receives attention because she's white, which overlooks her skill and exciting play style. On the other hand, denying any racial influence in her endorsements is also inaccurate. For instance, Mike Trout in baseball, despite being considered one of the best players, faces higher marketability standards due to historically white-dominated demographics in the sport. Similarly, Clark stands out in a predominantly black league, which aids in her marketability. This isn't to discredit her talent but to recognize how demographics can impact marketing strategies. This nuanced perspective is crucial when discussing this topic.
3. "Regarding the WNBA's handling of Clark, there's a degree of truth in the criticism. However, pushing one person as the face of the league can backfire, as seen in the NBA's over-reliance on LeBron. Clark's fanbase sometimes prioritizes her persona over the game itself, as demonstrated by reactions to her performance and presence on the court. Long-term growth requires a balanced marketing approach that includes Clark without making her the sole focus. Highlighting rivalries like the Reese-Clark feud could be beneficial in engaging fans more broadly.
4. It may seem that most sports fans don't want racial conflicts in the game. However, discussions about Clark often center around race, which raises questions. Many popular videos about Clark stray from analyzing her game to using her name in political debates. Both right-wing critics of the WNBA and left-wing commentators critical of Clark's attention tend to focus on race, contributing to the perception of a 'race war' narrative in sports. This contradiction suggests that while fans may claim to oppose such conflicts, their attention and discussions often perpetuate them."
Those are my full thoughts and they are pretty long. Hopefully we can move past the toxicity and just enjoy women's basketball because it's on the rise and this extra stuff isn't needed.
“Carried their league on their back” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This has been an absolutely depressing disgrace. It never occurred to me that something this horrible would happen to a young lady who has dreamed of being in the WNBA since elementary school. 😔😦
"I'm here to play basketball. I'm here to have fun." That's Caitlin Clark! Leave her alone and stop whining! PLAY BALL!
Other wnba players feel like there's a obvious evert to make cc something she is not she was the best college bb player not the best female player she has to earn her way to being the best female player and it won't be easy as we can see and some people don't like it
The NBA got lucky in 1979 when two players came into the league at the same time! Two players that could play all 5 positions in a basketball court. Two players that were excepted as the difference in the new era of basketball ! Both had an immediate impact on the game, they were the GOAT if there team and everyone excepted the fact of who they were and made sure these guys touched the basketball and let them make the decision to either win or lose the game and 97% of the time their team won because they seem to make the right decision. But the unique part is one was black and one was white, but neither saw color they just wanted to win! These women have to get past the idea that Caitlyn is a great basketball player and color has nothing to do with winning or losing
The WNBA is going to drive both CC AND the viewers to the European Leagues by the end of this season if they don't change. CC may end up playing for Italy on the Olympic team. But her sponsors aren't going to lose all that money - I bet they follow her.
I'm not an expert but i heard she signed a 4year contract with Indiana. I don't know what process or how to cut it but i believe she can go anytime 👍
I'll be honest, this League is not good since then. This is composed of everything negative we can think of.
I guess the world is laughing at them right now😂😅
It's like most of these WNBA athletes are more interested in advancing their personal agendas and statuses than they are the entire league, including themselves, but also their peers. I wonder of them being so focused on race and sexuality plays into this type of mentality 🤔
Only real take I am willing to share is about the Olympics. she should pick three rookies to go, Reese, Clark and Cardosa, but I don't know is cardosa would play for a different country or not. If some of the older players in the Wnba would give up the Olympic team spot it would be huge $$$ and more eyes on the Wnba. Not seeing team USA losing here. if the U18 American women's basketball team is winning games by 100 points the odds are excellent that our pros will do extremely well. I think some of this problem is Young players vs vets as well.
I only began to watch WNBA this year after watching Ms Clark in college. Her energy is so awesome. Her character is impeccable. I do not watch players who mouth off with jealousy. Ms Reese is disgraceful. All she does is put BB into basket from under the basket. Ms Boston is who I also watch!
Caitlin Clark is a straight baller. PERIOD.
She's smart not to get into identity politics. Probably being coached by her father to focus on the game.
This is where many upcoming superstar athletes fell out.
I appreciate Kap taking a knee, but he did it before he had the platform. Had he played with focus, he would be able to take the stage and speak because he had many more ears.
I love this video
Feels like the WNBA feels attacked because of her silence, automatically assuming CC doesn’t agree with the narrative. But what all of this pressure will eventually do is MAKE her be bitter against the league and disagree with them, regardless of her feelings now. When she voices that, everyone that disagrees with the league will ALSO voice that and the league will have the fallout they’re trying to avoid in the first place.
Clarke is the only reason anyone watches WNBA.
“Still on Pace to loose 50M”
DAWG💀💀😭
Yeah the W is going to stay the same if they keep making everything a pawn Clark is the Golden Goose and if they keep bashing her it’s going to stay irrelevant like it has since its debut
When making comments about her didn't work they literally started assaulting her on the court. Her own teamates don't even stick up for her. This is like Jackie Robinson in reverse. But it will end badly.
Whether women or men, I am not into basketball. I can see this reality a bit clearer than those who enjoy seeing a reflection of themselves, or their tribe win.
The U.S is a majority "white" country and can very easily rally its tribe into greatness, majority rules.
The WNBA may be more than one player, but if I'm honest CC is the only person in the league I consider a role model for my daughter.
I think there's something in that.
Saying connor put the ufc on the map is laughable. The only person you can atribute to putting the ufc on the map was don frye. In his prime frye would of given connor brain damage.
The only thing I disgree with is people saying A'ja Wilson isn't marketable. I find her very fun and likeable.
All this on a 22yr old girl is shameful
Good stuff as always brother 💪
Thanks cam
Great break down. Thank you 😊😊
They are going to hate Toby fournier much worse than he cc. Can u imagine the outrage once Toby dunks on angel reese face?!? It will be ww3
If Clark was the problem; I’d get it. She literally wants to just do her job. She doesn’t HAVE to say anything about it. She’s not drama based. Biggest thing is how all the players want all this equal pay but the NBA is literally helping keep their league alive. $$$$
Straight, White Caitlin should go play in Europe were she will be embraced!!
Why can't people celebrate and respect people's skill and talent instead of their race. Michael Jorden, in my opinion, is the best basketball player who ever played the game. He was great to watch, and I was amazed with his ability to operate under pressure. Could not care less about his political views or thoughts on world issues; those were his own ideas that he had a right to believe in.
Until we quit seeing others by the color of their skin, we will always be divided.
Heaven will not be segregated, and if you believe it will, you might not be heading in that direction!!🤔
it is players like carrington that make this league almost un-watchable .
CC is taking a page out of MJ's Book. MJ never talked politics. He simply cared about basketball.
Honestly, I don't feel the WNBA will ever be on the same level as the NBA for a multitude of reasons. #1 of those reasons is there is no dunking and the level on play as a whole is just terrible. I followed CC from the time she started at Iowa. The WNBA does not deserve her.
So the Lynx coach Reeve's didn't put CC on the Olympic team because CC didn't go to camp and Reeve wasn't familiar with her? The whole damn country was FAMILIAR with CC. Where was Reeve's hiding under a ROCK when CC broke the all time college scoring record and had 41 points in the LSU game final 4? I bet Reese remembers CC's 41 point victory over LSU to knock them out of back to back National championship! I wonder what Coach Reeve's is thinking now that CC has the first EVER rookie "Triple Double"!!!! I'm sure Reeve's has seen CC SELLING OUT every game she and the Fever play in!!!!
No race but marketability
I have never really followed the wnba till Caitlin Clark received the number 1 draft pick. The girl is awesome. 🎉
Whitlock is witless!
Caitlin is America's Favorite Trans Athlete! High Five!
Trans? You're not wrong.
God Forbid a talented basketball player just wants to focus on playing basketball. Caitlin is a True Superstar and the WNBA needs her more than she needs the WNBA.
Like Kate Martin
I’m done. Done with Sides, done with the alphabet gang, done with the prison mentality. I hope Caitlyn leaves after this season. She will never join the woke train and the bullying culture will wear here down over time. CC is a legend either way.
Think what a better place the world would be for everyone, especially young people - if Michael Jordan had cared about human rights and equality, instead of using his platform to hock poisonous hamburgers and force Chinese people to make shoes.
SPORTS ARE FUN. NOT IMPORTANT. THEY ARE NOT SACRED.
If sports can elevate a normal person to the position of a living GOD, I would demand a benevolent GOD.
Do you honestly think she gone be able to just focus on basketball? They only put players or entertainers on a pedestal, that have influence over a segment of society and she will have to use that influence when they tell her too. The minute they give her huge deals, she becomes their property. They already have her dressing differently. It's the price of stardom and fame.
but why is the owner silent about it!! Is he too old to see the cash cow, the opportunity to try something new??2 3 young ones plus 4 5 6 experienced hungry players and it works and whoever she doesn't hit 20 times it doesn't matter, it's the whole thing, she needs that too environment to it. That's how it goes with all big players. If they're not careful, they'll be destroyed. from these old women. these jealous furies!!! There is nothing worse in the world than jealous women, my mother always said son!! if you meet a woman like that. run for your life,, ,,,,,
It’s not a white thing or else Paige would receive the same publicity. If it were a “pretty privilege” thing Paige would receive more publicity. It’s a skill thing. And it’s a marketability thing. She’s from the Midwest. She loves her fans and signs autographs often. She’s cultivated a great image. That’s why she’s making bank.
Agree 100%
Nah its a white thing. When fox pundits are effectively using "black lesbians hate her", then pushing talented white straight girl narrative is marketable. Is she came out as gay, watch all that support disappear. It's a perception.
Shes the best and white. Not a good combination.
@RH-fj5dl Got nothing to do with being white. There has been plenty of white players in the league. Its you Mid westerners who are racist and trying to twist it. She doesnt condone your views
Paige is from UConn and that in itself is like a force field protection in the WNBA! When and if Paige enters the WNBA she will be accepted, welcomed and even heralded by the coaches and players. She will be the Anti-Caitlin!
Who would have thought that the media would actually get mad at a player who just wants to "shut up and dribble"
I can't wait until South Park has fun with this crap lol
I can't believe anyone watches south park.😮
@@ricklargent5487 I haven't in ages. But I would watch it again to see them cover this topic 😂
@@ricklargent5487 i thought it was kind of nerdy myself. but they actually make good points when they mock incidents happening in the media
@@ricklargent5487 - Why not? It's one of the most successful shows of all time. And it routinely calls out stupid people and groups. The WNBA's racist attack against Caitlin seems like perfect source material for them.
MJ famously avoided politics when others encouraged him to use his star power. CC is bringing more attention to the league which increases everyone ‘s visibility and their platforms. “Men don’t hold women down, women do. “-
No men do. Always trying to swerve the conversation. Men pit women against women
@@DemiB5030Good, now tell us how that is happening in the WNBA.? They have a star filling seats finally, and now thats a problem too.
No that's great. Media the problem. They never showcased anyone else.
@@DemiB5030 this is literally women attacking eachother. Did you watch the video?
@@DemiB5030 Then please elaborate how, because as of now you made a claim with no evidence supporting it. I am not saying there isn't any evidence, but the burden of presenting said evidence falls on the person making the claim
Best analysis of a complex issue I’ve listened to on this subject, great job 👏
Thanks my friend 🙏🏼
The issue is not complex. Just look how it was summed up in a 13 minute video. Every single argument against has been easily debunked. Mainstream media coverage has been dishonest like most of the political approach to this league.
never seen a league filled with so much jealousy. i just wanna watch basketball man
Me too. I don’t think they shouldn’t be allowed to talk politics, but this is excessive
Watch NBA man, WNBA is not really basketball, it's a charity organization .
If you want to watch bsketball i think they made it totally obvious that the wnba isn't about that. Jealousy is permited, making cliques and harassing people instead of showing up on the court is trash. Not respecting the fact that CC is an amazing player is beyond me.. like we get that you are supposed to trash talk your competition, but you can't act like you are better than them when you demonstrably aren't and can't result to bullying when you get outplayed.. be fucking better, that's your actual job, not being a "star wnba player".. actually playing good basketball that would get you noticed/signed over other players...
why? it is just an anger filled race baiting schyt show... on every level.
The fact Caitlin took a three star talent team to the championship two year running, and played the wall-to-wall five star talented SC and LSU both years is tantamount to Larry Bird taking his twro star Sycamores to the finals against Earvin’s five star talented Spartans!!! It was a miracle that both Bird and Clark could put their teams on their back and carried them that far. If Clark had two four star players, she would have two chips
Reporters should not allowed to be asking those questions it’s ridiculous and disgusting
😂 seriously if you don’t like something you shut them up like not aloud to speak? Free speech or freedom of the press like it or not. A bigger point if you silence the bozos and we don’t know who you are
Outstanding perspective. Great explanation. Clark is ALL class and she is ballin out there. She DESERVES all the positive recognition she's getting. A true hero for a league that is trying so hard to politicize her.
It’s crazy that they attack a woman over her skintone
Welcome to America, that has been happening to black people for generations, stop crying
Shows something about the content of their character, sadly.
How is that still the narrative? Pat Summitt from Tennessee is a huge reason the WNBA exists. Shs white 🤍. It's not about color. It's A ball player. She was drafted out of High School, Her contract was voided.
Caitlin is pure class wheras Reese asks for everything.
Wow, you have not studied your own American history. This country was based and built on discrimination against black skin. If it is happening, which it is not to CC, welcome to the party. Now it mean something to you because it mythically is happening to a white woman. Get a life.
There is some BS going on within her own team. Coach has got to go.
Coach is given instructions by league commissioner how to handle Clark.
@@bobbytownsend1868Yeah, the NBA needs to step in ASAP to stop this nonsense
I love how Clarke rocks the Ruth Buzzy hair tie! ( who's Ruth Buzzy)
Totally AGREE 👏👏👏
I notice when I type in Caitlin Clark in the YT search box and set it for videos for today they almost all include Angel Reese in them. They are pushing the rivalry narrative hard in the algorithms.
This is factual. I looked up her name just now as I read this comment and it popped up with a Stephen A video yesterday of the “debate”.
Google not same
Reese has been making it about her and everyone talking Shyt about Catlin is making far more drama than what is needed..
And to add salt to the wound, the "rivalry" is completely manufactured. The famous taunt that sparked everything was made up by media taking thing out of context.
This has to be one of the most clear examples on when to be humble.
It is a FACT that if not for Caitlin Clark, no one would even know who AR is
I'll be honest, I know very little about basketball and even less about the WNBA being from England, but this is very strange. The way this looks looks like how it would be if the Saudi League decided to not welcome Ronaldo. The fouling just looks petty regardless
Strange analogy as she hasn’t even won a single championship in her respective career
@@MayorSomTried to think of a 'star' player entering a smaller league
The most insane part is that society pressures most male athletes to shut up; but then, when CC wants to go to work without distractions, she's harpooned on the [inter]national stage.
Yea, it almost seems like society is made up of a lot of people with conflicting opinions.
This is genuinely disgusting situation, great vid and analysis. Love your content.
I agree. Truly unfortunate she’s put in this position. Thanks
You are completely right thank you for standing up to the BS
I am first a CC fan. I hope for her sake she can stay above the nonsense in the WNBA and focus on basketball. It's working for her, and she's balling!
You hit the nail right on the head with this
These people are so disgusting, and will sink this league over jealousy and race baiting.
CC is disliked by 99% of the league. CC is the real “dawg” in my book. 💪🏻
Great video, great analysis! It's been sad and disheartening to watch all of this unfold the way it has, but I'm rooting for her, and I hope she stay out of all the mess! The same way she just wants to play ball and have fun, the same way I just want to watch it and enjoy. We have enough politics and all of that surrounding us all day every day. No need to constantly bring it into sports as well.
And this is one of the reasons why I'm starting to turn away from sports, because in almost every sport and facet, it's either about race or gender. It's never about the sport.
Sports and race wars aren’t like coffee and milk
@@FrankMichaelSmith they're making it into something it doesn't need to be. All Clark wanted to do was play ball, and since she's gotten into the league, the league wants to badmouth her just because she doesn't want to talk about off-court happenings. At the end of the day, if you went to work and all you heard was " oh, you know whats-her-name has a gf" or "the only reason why such and such got that promotion was because they kissed a**", would you want to entertain the noise around you? No. But thus is life
Try Hockey it’s super team based.
I stopped supporting professional sports when the MLB walked out. ...
I watch socially because I have friends that watch.I don't buy gear. I don't buy tickets. I dont' plan my weekends around sports ...
But I have been amazed watching the women be so stupid. Men can be that stupid also. I just watch them say shit that is so off the wall and outside reality that I scratch my head and back away. My wife says shit like that too and she is not stupid.
I try to explain -- "I do not care how much women make. The key to women making more.... IS PEOPLE WATCHING THE FUCKING GAME!"
"But women are every bit as good as men. Why don't they watch!"
"Why the F don't you watch... " I ask...
"Well I would like to watch, but I don't have time..."

@@FrankMichaelSmith ....Do you want to know who else had to go through this treatment that actually went on for years to the point where this person was ready to walk away from b-ball. Pete Maravich. Although they give CC such credit for breaking Pete's all time scoring record, what they don't tell you that what Pete did in 3 years, it took CC 4 years when they played more games per year. CC averaged 28.3 for her collage while Pete averaged 44.2.
Leaving Caitlin off of the USA Olympic team is one of the pettiest and most braindead things I've ever seen.
Even Clark won’t be able to save the WNBA unless they get a new commissioner.
Absolutely or someone who doesn't buy into the activism
Interesting how you guys blame everyone and want rules changed to benefit one player. You’re awful people!
These female players & their wives are outta control, this "league" is beyond fixing .
Tbh, I’d be ok with the league closing. Besides, Clark has a fall back plan in the form of Ice Cube

They are pissed because of a shoe deal Nike made with Caitlin that awarded Caitlin with big money! Did they expect her to turn down the deal ? I don't think Caitlin called Nike and offered thema deal on a pair of basketball shoes ! They contacted her and offered her a deal not the WNBA! Caitlin just broke the all time point leader in college basketball and who do you think Niki aiming to get?

Have you ever heard Paige Beckers talk? She sounds like she's getting a major in Eb0nics!
Envy, jealousy, anger, and self discontentment is powerful
First time seeing you stuff, and enjoyed your format. Nice work
video dropped right as I was about to eat, Thank you.
nothing better than propping your phone up against your drink
@@FrankMichaelSmith damn are you watching me😭
If Angel Reese had white skin, she would be shamed, shunned, and canceled for acting the way she does and saying the things she says.
No she wouldn’t. She’s being shitted on now and CC is being praised for the same shit.
Stop the lies, she's just a great competitor with over 6 million followers combined. A beautiful black princess with class and heart to lead a comeback down 15 for the win! And a NCAA champion 🏆 that's a bad narrative.
@@cnjt159th you are really that stupid ? CC acts nothing like reese . she is being shit on because she is an ass .

Utter nonsense
@@mexrider1 NOT AT ALL ... FACT ...HARD CORE FACT ...CANT PROVE IT WRONG ... YOUR DELUSIONAL... OR JUST IN DENIAL
The Lady Jaye reference triggered my 40+ year old cartoon watching brain cells. Thanks for that!
Everyone sees all this bs they're doing to caitlin and this is also another reason why she's getting the support she's already getting.
Quality content my guy! I've been bombarded with like 40 Caitlin Clark videos over the past week and a half and yet you managed to dig up info/video I've never seen or heard yet! I look forward for your future content.
Good research man!
Who in the world, is searching for social activism, when tuning in to watch sports? Could you find a less marketable prospect?
i find it amusing that it gets referred to as "the W" - thats it, keep reminding us it's the Welfare league...CC is the only reason I have started seeing positive news about the WNBL
Caitlin Clark is the Canary in the Cultural Mine. This is a bigger, deeper story than basketball now.
How we treat her reveals how toxic the air has become. Clark is a quintessential Iowa, she is humble, good humored, loyal and charitable. - The first toxic wave was revealed in the '23 tournament: I was SHOCKED when Dawn Staley tried to frame Coach Bluder as racist/and slighted Clark/team/Iowans for NO REAON. . .This went viral and soon (some) from SC and LSU bought into Staley's bigotry. . . Iowans are VERY mellow and open to be friends with anyone, however... Iowans have no back down. This wasn't going to work out for Staley (and her Bully Club followers) the way it usually does, where they get to throw stone and get away with it. Iowans don't back down from bullies. We don't back down because they are grounded, and we know we have earned our ground. (We do, every year as farmers). - We are just as grounded in our support of youth/athletes - grounded in ethics - and more than tough from a foundation of actual hard work/knowing how to live through generations of winters (and for most boys a lot of wrestling) and for most girls support that they can do anything they set themselves to. These are the shoulders that Caitlin Clark stands upon.
This Honor Culture, shared by Iowans (and Many Others all over the Country), has now brought a new light onto the dark corners of the WNBA. Now we see - the WNBA has been run by a Bully Club - along with Staley and the HS talent-monopoly club. This Bully Club acts as the big fish in the small pond. But Clark broke the barrier that held this pond in - through Clark's courage - the pond overflows and is becoming something bigger. The Bully Club now desperately wants to retain control and since Clark is beyond their control they are trying EVERYTHING to either subdue, break, or ice her out. It won't work. Clark has a MUCH bigger ocean of support behind her: a culture of honor and strong, if usually quiet, people who can't be moved by small fish, who have a strong (old-fashioned) sense of social justness, and who know what it takes to take down bullies. This is MUCH bigger than Clark, but she is caught in the middle of it. The Bully Club has used Institutionalized Abuse to subdue the league - where every rookie class must both take the abuse and then join the abusing of the next class, in order to be admitted to the Club. Clark won't do this. She won't react in kind, even if they hit her - once, twice, even dozens of time. She sees the other shore. It's not right, these dirty deep weeds they now pull her into - the physical abuse. Nor is the social bullying, icing out, or all of it. But Clark knows that this is more than her now. It is the league that needs reform. There has been a silent majority of women basketball players who have long suffered the Bully Club's abuse. They would have wanted the league to be a normal professional one: challenging but clean, passionate but sportsmanlike. They would have called for this if they had had the backing. Now they do. (Although, through all the noise, many don't now this - they don't know that WE are also here for THEM.)
The main issue now is the issue of Clarity, or lack of clarity, amidst the smokescreen of all this noise. The Bully Club has used the shield of social games - "we're not bullies, we're victims, and those are the bad people...like Clark..." - to insulate themselves. Some people, fans, people not looking to see what's in the dark waters spreading around, are taking those manipulative words at face value. This has led some to believe that Iowan fans would not support all of women (of any background). We have to bring clarity through this noise. We have to communicate with good and effective sense. We need to cut the smokescreen that they would divide us with. If we make real connections, even and especially with people from different backgronds, we will recognize that we all want the same things. We want to see good sport, for ALL of the women (of all backgrounds) where they can feel safe, supported, respected and then play to the best of their genius.
But first, we have to be smart enough to see all of this through, to maintain clarity through the noise of battle (a mostly communication battle) and then we need to form the clear & simple ideas for what must be done - Together we must push the expectation that the WNBA must reform to meet as a new standard that isn't just good enough for Clark, but is good enough for all of the women.
Wow! I didn't know that Page Bueckers was such a whatever is the white version of a buck dancer 😂. Jeez. What kind of pressure do you have to be under to feel as if you need to pander to someone else, at a time you've just won an award, just to be accepted.
Paige....SMH!!!!!!
