Very well said… CC needs to apologize to nobody…Not denying that there isn’t other great women who has played in the past, or currently playing, they all are now getting their due recognition, however that never happens for any of them without CC being who she is and always will be. She is special/ different and we all are lucky to get to witness this transformation for women’s sports!!
What a great take on Caitlin Clark thank you so much for that sensible narrative. We love her because she simply plays basketball and is awesome at it and exciting to watch.
I love it when someone makes a great case, and backs it up with facts. Is the CC the greatest? Nah, that was Cheryl Miller. But she is fun as hell to watch, her deep 3's are Steph Curry worthy, her passes remind me of Larry the Legend, and she manages the media with great respect and humility.
Other non-basketball athletes could have won the award but among basketball players she fully deserves this. Not because of skin color, but because she displayed unparalleled talent, work ethics and dedication. Swoopes and this team owner are, sadly, pulling the race card - again. "you can agree or disagree but Caitlin is entitled to an opinion" No. Your opinion ceases to be an "opinion" if you are lying. Free speech mandates that we accept the right of others to be offensive; free speech doesn't mandate a free pass when people lie. In some matters, lies land people in court and EVEN big orgs end up paying millions for spreading lies. This country has had enough of identity politics divisiveness. Repeating the "white privilege" lie in this day and age can have devastating effects. She lied, therefore she is facing and will face some backlash. Deservedly so, even if she (like Steph Curry, LeBron, Luka, Nikola) is a GREAT basketball player. Do NOT gaslight people ("she did not apologize for being White").
The statement that got me: many who comment negatively never read the article and many who comment negatively on this video did not listen to it. We need more fact-based takes on everything. Unfortunately, when an issue is mult-dimensional, it cannot be easily boiled down by a speaker or truly understood by those who do not take the time (or have the ability) to full appreciate it. Yet, it those same people who appear to yell the loudest and ultimately, ignore facts. This type of thinking will be the end of us as a country if we do not reverse the current trend.
Reality is People will not remember how many points you score, championships you win but how you make them feel. Caitlin make people feel her genuine love for the game and Women's Sports and People love her unique basketball skills.
She didnt just go woke she is being true to who she is and has always been. Anyone that actually litened to her last year knows this. She spoke on the issue several times and has always paid tribute to her heros from the WNBA like Maya Moore, Tamika Catchings, Cheryl Miller, hell even Sheryl Swoopes herself. Anyone that has an issue with her Time interview statement just hasnt been paying attention to who CC really is.
Hard feelings? Cry me a river. Caitlin Clark is an earthquake shaking up the Black Lesbian League. They're gonna need to up their game to compete with her and the ON FIRE FEVER! The WNBA has been offering mediocre players for 25 years. Now they get a superstar and have their panties in a wad because she's so much better than them. Enjoy your MVP award for this year, A'ja - it's the last one you'll be getting. The most improved award that went to eye-poke Dijonaisse Carrington should have gone to Lexie Hull or Kelsey Mitchell, IMHO.
Great commentary , Catlin brought the game of basketball back the fans . Women's rugby is played on a field not a court . Want to keep the fans coming get rid of the rugby
I am white and I don't care if her comments are offensive to others. Does Caitlin have a right to say what she says? Of course, free speech. Do others have a right to feel offended? I suppose they do. The question is: does their right to feel offended trump her right of free speech? Not in this day and age nor any other place I know of. If someone wants to piss and moan about a thing all it does is show that they didn't learn their citizenship lesson very well when growing up. I am sure in time they will get over being offended though -- and if they don't? I still don't care. 🤷🤷🤷♂🤷♂
@sparkyman8249 I don't see how you being white has anything to do with it, that's why many people are upset. She is entitled to her opinion and people have the right to respond and decide whether they want to continue to watch or not. Free speech doesn't just go in one direction. Cheers.
Caitlin Clark saying there’s white privilege, or rather white favoritism, is a myth. If white privilege existed it didn’t help me get the post office job over a black woman. But that’s fine, I don’t care, I’m not prejudice, I actually found a better job later, cause it was in God’s plan for me.
No one is saying that she didn't deserve the award or that she said she didn't deserve the award, nor is anyone saying that she's not entitled to her own opinion, Mr. Straw Man. What the core of her supporters are saying is that she went woke very vocally and they don't like that so therefore they're withdrawing their support. They're entitled to their opinions, too, right Mr. Straw Man?
SHEILA JOHNSON is a top business woman but clearly this comment makes her acumen in question. Stats do not lie. Take Mystics organisation, if you take out Fever games in both 2023/2024, Mystics growth in attendance is pitiful 3.6%. Mystics attendances is up 38%. Fever and Clark is responsible for 25%😮😮😮 SHEILA JOHNSON SHOULD THANK CAITLIN BY CONGRATULATING CAITLIN NOT DIMINISHING HER AWARD.
Hands down the BEST commentary I have heard on this topic. Well said. Short and to the point.
Absolutely. Finally some sanity!
Thank you, I totally agree and appreciate your commentary
Perfect, the best take on the subject
This is an excellent journalist coverage of the media salad created.
Brilliant! Thank you!
What an outstanding commentary! It would be great if a larger audience could see it. Thank you for providing it. It’s refreshing and right on target.

Right on target. Thank you sir👏👏👏

Great player. But Why did CC bring up race? So tired of it.

Shout out to this post for highlighting the truth about this award.
👏👏👏👏
Of course we love our Cc❤🎉 salute for this guy.
Right. CC22 is the gamechanger. Her impact the same as Michael Jordan. Its Clark era!
Best take i heard so far 👌
So right Keith

Someone who tells what must be said, no less no more
Well Done! Wouldn't it be nice if ESPN, ABC, CBS and the WNBA was this objective in covering CC?
Hard feelings? Cry me a river. Caitlin Clark is an earthquake shaking up the Black Lesbian League. They're gonna need to up their game to compete with her and the ON FIRE FEVER!

I loved it so true

Does she deserve the award: YES. Are the white privilege comments devisive and offensive to many: YES
