I'm 53 and have been watching the NBA since 1987, now for the 1st time ever in my life I'm now watching the WNBA and it's not because of Caitlin Clark . When you have grown men checking out the woman's league it speaks volume, and it don't matter if you white or black, us guys appreciate good basketball.
@@arthuracuna3165 Imagine if this was reversed on to one of the haters? All hell would break loose. Play your game Caitlyn and keep scoring points, that's how you shut haters down.
I remember Bernard Hopkins , boxings executioner yelling, "I aint never letting no white boy beat me!" Then got his ass knocked out of the ring by said white boy. It's not jealousy, it's plain 'ol ugly racism. She's white, and the black players hate her because she's talented and has class. Racism is prevalent in all races.
That's not funny - it's the absolute truth. I don't watch basketball at all, l know some players (Kobe, Shaq, Magic) from their after career careers as announcers and the like. Now l'm totally invested in WNBA, and they keep on Caitlin as they are currently, l'll not be watching, just youtubing.
@@GarySchumacher-z3y Same here. I took my family once to a wnba game and we were so uncomfortable with all the lesbians and thugs all around us. Not the kind of atmosphere you want your children to see. And the players were not very good also! This was 30 years ago. Now I am coming back to watch only bc of CC. CC brings a completely different personality to the game that we just don't see with the players now.
As a true bball fan, a league does not one person make. I watched the NBA before Jordan, watched women's hoops before the WNBA's 1st game. The show goes on after the great ones retire, because the next one is right around the corner.
Yep. The only WNBA player's name I'd recognize is Britney Griner only because she was stupid enough to enter Russia with a drug vape and was swapped for a notorious arms dealer. Now THAT is what I'd call a poor trade.

@@kathleenmckeithen118 I know right !! Two of My grandchildren play basketball, and they are on two fantastic teams. 7th and 9th grade. So watching it played at the pro level is pretty exciting
No the racism comes from those new fake clark fans towards Reese. They been racist towards Reese ever since Reese won the college ring over her two years ago.
I'm not sure if this exposes women as insane or only black women. However, in watching most black men supporting Caitlin (or at least not openly against her) it certainly looks to me like America has a real problem with at least half of the ghetto dwellers.
She's handling the pressure very well but she's not the only one! There are a lot of respectable players playing but there are some cheap shot haters playing, but don't class everyone in that category when it's not true! Many players have embraced her and played with respect but as anything else there are always a few bad seeds, but don't class everyone in that category
Those bullies are no ladies... Just racists, jealous, petty and violent women! Should be banned from sports! Go Caitlin Clark and Keep your spirits up!!

When she got passed over for the Olympics she just said oh well. Maybe in 4 years. She is a really good person. Women are so caddy and jealous with each other
I know what you mean, but when you are a rookie in a league, that's what you get. Old dog makes the young dog kiss unless you are 7' 4" and come from France, right self-proclaimed Goat? Or god?
I’m a 60yr old Blk man & I recall when the WNBA 1st started …it was the running joke for decades, losing money every yr forcing players to go overseas to supplement their low pay. Now with CC, the league is gaining massive viewership which WILL result in more sponsors & better pay. These ‘old hats’ bein salty is simply not worth my time b/c if Clark can get me & my friends to watch a league we ‘clowned’ regularly then it’s clear she has the appeal to elevate the league to the next level 👍🏾
@@ntvtxn62You know, I’m a CC fan. But I find it understandable as a fact of human nature that her huge payday and endorsement deal with Nike and having her own shoe in her rookie year would inspire some resentment and jealousy. And also, the media feeds it in their fixation on CC coverage. That interview with them all ignoring Boston was painful. CC’s proving herself on the court and making her team better. There is also no doubt Angel Reese is a force with her dozen Double Dubs, the Rookie of the Year award is up for grabs and should be based only on Hoops Metrics and not media presence.
It is the culture most times, sometimes it is just ignorance. Even some of the original players just make up stuff. If Caitlin shot forty balls a game her teams score would be in high 40s to 60s. Swopes just hating.
@@chewieburnt757she shouldn't have to put up with this crap and she came in this league a really good kid and I don't know what this is going to turn her into. If you think this is acceptable then but I don't know what that says about you
Oh, yah, because Clark is certainly being celebrated, embraced and uplifted. If by "celebrated" you mean hated, "embraced" you mean clotheslined, and "uplifted" you mean having people talk down about her accomplishments....yah. Spot on. I see exactly what you are saying. Seriously, these women are the worst, and don't deserve Clark.

(WHAT A SLAP IN THE FACE TO BOTH C.C.

Seats being sold massively thanks to Caitlin Clark. Chartered luxury flights thanks to Caitlin Clark. Record high TV audience thanks to Caitlin Clark. High tides elevate all boats, take advantage of the Clark’s tide and start selling the WNBA as a high quality sport product for the entire family, a lot of little girls will be watching now, otherwise return to the classical WNBA, full of unknown tattooed people and empty seats. It’s that simple.
Caitlin single handedly is responsible for the Explosion of viewership, attendence, ticket sales, ticket inflation and packed arenas all to see HER play. GO Caitlin! Be all you can be!
Not single handedly....but yes she is responsible for majority...the media has hyped up the Cait hate...because it draws views...but you can see Caitlin is tired and stressed out...hope she rides it out!
nobody is watching WNBA just to see Reese, but a lot of people are watching WNBA just to watch Caitlin Clark. “Everybody knows that the reason why our teams around the league are having sellouts are because Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever are coming to town.” - Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve Teams across the league that are hosting the Fever have had to move their games to bigger venues. The Dallas Wings even had a packed game for the preseason contest against the Fever. “So far this season, games featuring Caitlin Clark have accounted for over ONE THIRD of the WNBA’s entire TV ad revenue. The Caitlin Clark effect is real.” - Fanatics Sportsbook When the Fever played the Lynx there were 18,000+ fans at the Target Center.
Right. The ONLY reason I watch is Caitlin. Before her, I'd rather do all sorts of things other than watch the WNBA. I never even checked their game schedules until CC. Now I check to make sure I don't miss one of her games.
That's the bit I don't get. CC has brought a new audience and lots of attention. Why don't the other players celebrate that as an opportunity for them as well? If they continue to rubbish CC is there somewhere else she can go? If she did go the reality check to the others would be funny.
@@shawnmoody6365 swoopie daisy is a racist jealous liar! She may have been a great player I’m not going to deny that, but everything she says about CC is a lie! Facts have proved swoops wrong in everything she has claimed about CC!
I have a good friend who's an LSU alum and follows all the sports of his old school. His assessment of Angel Reese is, that she is a thug and he is embarrassed by her actions on and off the court.
So if records are made to be broken why the white man get made every time a black man breaks his records even a blind squaril can find a nut every once in a while
Because you hate the people you delusionally think are haters who are really fans of other players and players trying to play hard to win and earn a spot on a roster.
@@ReadR00ster1no they are 100000000% haters and we all see it. You are the lone one out dawg. Just look at the comments section FULL TO THE MAX with support for CC and nothing but distaste for these bitter betty bitchhes and their nasty attitudes. The players that are SMART and not envious are also enjoying newfound popularity and love thanks to CC. Aliyah Boston is getting MAD LOVE rn as are many other players that are smart enough to see what CC is bringing for ALL OF THEM. But these dumb hoes that are just hateful are shooting themselves in the foot.
@heatherbeau4759 oh don't worry. She has already crushed TONS OF RECORDS and just set a new one last game-- she is the first rookie EVER to have a triple double game (which means in all 3 important scoring areas- points, assists, and rebounds-- she scored double digits) this is a MASSIVE accomplishment. And these old bitter jealous bittches need to stop. I'm sooooooooo proud of Caitlin for not responding to literally ANY of the hate and shade thrown her way. She has remained a CLASS ACT this entire season and it's beautiful to see a player that is not only the MOST TALENTED AND MOST POPULAR, but also the most humble!! CC is the real deal!!
@@SquirtlePower809 I think they are bitter, but these women have put in the effort way before Caitlyn was ever on the scene. The problem is the media has made her the face of the WNBA before she even put in any real time. All due to her work she did in college. These ladies are just saying that she is a great college player but she hasn't proved anything yet. Two national championship losses are not great on the resume. It just feels a little pushed and not genuine. She leads the league in turnovers with 42 more than the next person. All they are saying is that it seems like they are trying to make her the face of the WNBA.

Absolutely correct. On the other hand, men's NBA absolutely act like spoiled little narcissistic children on the daily, they have for decades, the more rich and famous they are the worse they are, yet they are inexplicably treated with respect... well by the media at large and the emotionally addicted sycophantic fans, anyway..
The sad truth about an envious person is that they are not really happy just by having what the other person has because, deep down, their wildest, most unattainable longing is... to BE that person. That's why I don't HATE the envious. I pity them. BTW, Caitlin Clark is the reason im watching the WNBA.
The simple fact is that CC has made the WNBA way more money and attention in such a short amount of time than anyone else. It is INEXCUSABLE how she is being targeted by her jealous peers. Its a bit gross to see these envious women try to tear her down. Its OBVIOUS why they hate her...
man you guys are more squishy than caitlin she even says that basketball plays are basketball plays. you guys need to level up your armor. FYI that happens in every league
@@chewieburnt757 CC is being diplomatic unlike 90% of the other women in the WNBA. Those aren’t basketball plays, they’re fouls with the intend to hurt.
@emptyarthaus9535 Actually the WNBA is now losing $50M/yr, more than ever. Attendance income is up, expenses even more. That may prove a good investment. Or not. But your impression that the WNBA is making "way more money" in profit is false.
This has little to do with “women”.. this is another race issue where blacks hating to see whites dominate for some reason as if the fact that we create EVERYTHING isn’t enough of a mic drop.. 🎤
CC brought me to watch WNBA, but the outright lies and jealousy of so many of her peers is driving me away. The WNBA is killing itself with their malice & racism. Also, they're setting the Women's Movement back 50 years.
its not the poor coaching. the poorer execution by players that drives you away.. ..its backlash an overhyped player has with 16 pts average, the sub 35 percent 3pt avg, or her sub 35% fga. maybe its here 5.5 turnover a game. thats curious.
@@chewieburnt757 She's the only rookie that is top 5 in every major statistic. Pts, reb, ast, steals etc. Her 3pt% (on 8 attempts against double and triple teams) is only 3% lower than Angel Reese's 2pt average. She's not overhyped, she's a rookie that is adjusting to a league that is against her, including her own teammates.
But the league and the players don't have to care because they still get paid because the men pay the bills for them. If not they would have to clean up their act and make the league more appealing to the average sports fan.
You can’t excuse racism for Immaturity!! Racism exists in people of all colors and sexes!!! How do I know? I’m black!! and I’ve done it in the past against whites, just like these women do!! I stopped, not because of maturity, but out of the reality of the truth as opposed to the lies I had believed from the MEDIA B.S. The MEDIA turned all whites into the ONLY ones who could be racist!! Just another MEDIA LIE!!!
I can't understand why the WNBA commissioner doesn't put a stop to some of the deliberate physical abuse of Clark. If she suffers a career ending injury the league will go back to 8 percent annual growth. I also don't understand the players trying to kill her. Don't they realize the increased ticket sales leads to increased tv contracts leads to higher pay all around. They are trying to kill their own golden Goose
Now Reese is playing the victim card. We heard her say she would accept the bad guy role. Now she’s claiming her mental health is at stake because people hate her. She brought it all on herself! These people are so insane. Just play basketball.
Which is exactly what CC is attempting to do….IMO Clark keeps it about the team in the press - yes, she gets fired up in the game & sometimes and talks smack (don’t they all?) No one is perfect. But Clark is never “look at me or poor me” in the press like Reese
There’s not enough time here. She’s clearly doing that. Don’t play dumb. Do your own research. Listen to her own words. She’s a very ignorant person, it must be exhausting to be that hateful and stupid your whole life.
Does anyone think Pistol Pete would be complaining about Clark breaking his record? Swoopes is tarnishing whatever image she had in the past by spouting lie after lie about Clark. She looks and sounds like old, jealous and bitter.
Pistol Pete was railroaded when he entered the league. Everyone was jealous he was making more money than everyone else. His teammates dropped passes etc. to make him look bad.
Angel Reese is trying to help the game with their rivalry. Some jealously is probably there, but she is not comparable to the women flat out lying trying to ruin Clark's reputation.
No it's not. There's a ton of white players. Non have complained of racism. Even Clark isn't calling racism. Just new white fans who just started watching the Wnba.
@@derekl9881 It's not racism in the true definition of the word. It's racism in the way the word would have been used had the players been reversed. This is more like jealousy crossing into hate territory. Add to that the lack of respect and integrity, coming from those retired players spouting lies to support their hateful narrative. Imagine the situation in reverse. There would be an outcry of pyramidal proportion. Caitlin and others not complaining about racism or hate or something else, does not mean something is not there. They decided to carry on, be classy and focus on their game.
True. CC has been a more valuable commodity to the W than any other single player this year if not all years. All those decades watching the NCAA, Bird and MJ never made me want to turn on a W game.
Or it could be because her fans (I am one) said she was going to come in and dominate and take over. Diana said there would be an adjustment period and she wasn’t wrong. Then you have the racist fans who call other players thugs and say people don’t like her cuz she is white. It makes a lot of Black people not want to support her simply because of her fans and their big mouths. I’ve seen the racist nastiness said to Reese in social media and I understand why people lash out at CC to piss off her fans.
@@heatherlynn1974 It seems as if 100% of the black players in the league are against her and you have the nerve to say it is the audience that's racist? May I guess that you live in some major city?
Right?! So much for "women supporting women." Two-faced, as always. Let's pretend to cheer each other on just for the praise of it, but when it comes to actually supporting each other? Forget it. It's sad.
It's why the Kardashians succeeded they painted themselves as idiots.. intentionally. People don't like watching smart, or successful people.. they like watching stupid people, who seem to luck into success
I am only watching a video like this because of one name, Caitlin Clark. If WNBA and all its members would embrace this fact, they would be better off for it.
It's very upsetting to see Caitlin get hit in the head going to the hoop - and then hearing smart people like Monica McNutt and Rebecca Lobo not call out the jealousy.
This segment reminded me of the movie‘white man can’t jump’, Caitlin Clark earned everything she’s gotten. Why Ice Cube offered her $5 million is because he believes that she’s that good, she’s worth it. Don’t hate, appreciate!
There is something about her, something that makes her different from all those other WNBA players, that Ice Cube liked that all of the other wnba players just don't have! That's part of the reason that she is hated.
DON'T you notice something in common with all these women bashing the new star? It is blatant and so revealing of the origin of hatred and division in our contemporary society. Maybe it's time to stop hiding our faces and denounce this growing cultural hatred.
This is the lefts doing they teach people to hate. Haven't you noticed how full on hateful the protesters are now and I don't mean just in the last couple of years either
@@marcusrex77 ever watched her technique? she'd still be cookin her opponents womens OR mens size, doesnt matter, that Lady got something 90% of these ugly ass jelly beans dont have: class, skill and talent.
That woman held the record for 43 years - why isn't she just proud of that fact? And if it was so easy now why has no-one else beaten it? You could equally argue it was easier in her day because the skill level was lower. Reese making out that she is the "superstar" and conveniently forgetting it's a team sport and she is just a cog like Caitlin. The USA Team thing is silly because I didn't see Reese's name there either so obviously relying on established players.
@dennismount the jealousy towards CC may be related to the fact that she's white, but not for the reason you're implying. much like Eminem in hip-hop, and much like Tiger Woods in golf, she became the most popular WNBA player (in part) because people like an underdog, and people like someone who they relate to and see themselves in. and because she became the most popular player in WNBA history before even proving anything, naturally there's going to be jealousy. that would explain why there isn't and wasn't some huge conspiracy against Kelsey Plum, Breanna Stewart, Sabrina Ionescu, and all the other white players in the W, who also (as it turns out) are the most popular players in the league.
@@ReignMaker26 If she were black, Clark wouldn't be getting bullied. Clark's the most popular player because she's one of the WNBA players who's actually GOOD.
@@Falconlibrary to be clear, I like CC and her game. but if you're calling the fouls that she's taking 'bullying', I encourage you to look up more clips of the physicality of the play in the WNBA. Unlike the rage bait clips you're seeing on social media are leading you to believe, she isn't being exclusively targeted with physical play - this is how the league is. It just doesn't get shared all over social media when it happens to any other player. Do some searching and you'll see... Or, you know, watch a few games.
I saw a comment that hit the nail on the head "Caitlin Clark doesn't need the WNBA, the WNBA needs Caitlin Clark" How many WNBA games were sold out before she was drafted??
I used to really admire Sheryl Swoopes and sought her out for an autograph when I was young. Now I'm just disappointed in her and all of the other former athletes like Dawn Staley. Petty is a good word for all these women. No wonder the WNBA has never been interesting to the general public.
"We want her to come to the WNBA where she will be celebrated and embraced and uplifted." And how did THAT turn out? That's some high-quality BS right there.
I just now realized it was Lynette's record she broke. Back in the day, Lynette was from my home town, Wichita, Kansas. She kind of did the same thing CC did-she got people interested in women's basketball. She was awesome, she could dunk, and she was the first woman to play for the Harlem Globetrotters. I was always proud of her- until today. She used to have class, or so I thought...
@@allenwhitmer8192 I think her point that her record involved scoring more baskets with an unminiaturized ball had considerable merit, though she ought to have refrained from putting it as ~"my record hasn't been broken".

They say she beat Darnell Valentine, a fellow Jayhawk and future NBA guard at the time, in a dunking contest. He also was from Wichita. I'm disappointed with her, but I still love her.

This is one of the reasons people don’t support women basketball. Disrespecting each other does not bring respect to the league. Embrace this young lady and give her the opportunity to help the league.
... true, but Catlin was using a different sized ball when she broke the record. How would Ruth like it if modern day baseball players could hit a ball that is three times the size that he played with.

She's a straight happy white girl surrounded by angry black lesbians.
Que no?
so true - these women are so r@cist and jealous of Caitlin
No the racism comes from those new fake clark fans towards Reese. They been racist towards Reese ever since Reese won the college ring over her two years ago.
I'm not sure if this exposes women as insane or only black women. However, in watching most black men supporting Caitlin (or at least not openly against her) it certainly looks to me like America has a real problem with at least half of the ghetto dwellers.
She's so amazing! She plays with against jealous, racist, sore loser twits, & takes it all in stride. You're a class act Caitlan!

Meanwhile, she is the only one handling the pressure in a professional manner. Without her the WNBA would be suffering for viewers.
She's handling the pressure very well but she's not the only one! There are a lot of respectable players playing but there are some cheap shot haters playing, but don't class everyone in that category when it's not true! Many players have embraced her and played with respect but as anything else there are always a few bad seeds, but don't class everyone in that category

That was the biggest joke of the whole video.
I laughed when I heard her say that.
It's called tough love, I approve. But your words show you are a ridiculous person.
I know what you mean, but when you are a rookie in a league, that's what you get. Old dog makes the young dog kiss unless you are 7' 4" and come from France, right self-proclaimed Goat? Or god?
I’m a 60yr old Blk man & I recall when the WNBA 1st started …it was the running joke for decades, losing money every yr forcing players to go overseas to supplement their low pay. Now with CC, the league is gaining massive viewership which WILL result in more sponsors & better pay. These ‘old hats’ bein salty is simply not worth my time b/c if Clark can get me & my friends to watch a league we ‘clowned’ regularly then it’s clear she has the appeal to elevate the league to the next level 👍🏾
Black women are most racist people on the planet!
Kinda reminds me of how Eminem made rap a legitimate goal for white suburban kids. Haters will hate, but the game evolves anyways.
I have never watched a minute of WNBA until Caitlin Clark showed up. Now I am all about watching it.
Jealousy is an ugly thing.
CC is not the right tone.........FACTS
As if those ratchets weren't gross enough already... gag, barf, puke, yak
So is Caitlin.
@@ntvtxn62You know, I’m a CC fan. But I find it understandable as a fact of human nature that her huge payday and endorsement deal with Nike and having her own shoe in her rookie year would inspire some resentment and jealousy. And also, the media feeds it in their fixation on CC coverage. That interview with them all ignoring Boston was painful. CC’s proving herself on the court and making her team better. There is also no doubt Angel Reese is a force with her dozen Double Dubs, the Rookie of the Year award is up for grabs and should be based only on Hoops Metrics and not media presence.
Some of its jealousy and some of its straight up racism
What is professional about these jealous women? The hate, jealousy, and violence is not ok!
Clark is not as sensitive as you guys are.
It is the culture most times, sometimes it is just ignorance. Even some of the original players just make up stuff. If Caitlin shot forty balls a game her teams score would be in high 40s to 60s. Swopes just hating.

Damn Reese, get over yourself. No class.
so prior to Caitlin Clark the WNBA was getting a cost of living raise. Caitlin Clark gave the WNBA a promotion.
Oh, yah, because Clark is certainly being celebrated, embraced and uplifted. If by "celebrated" you mean hated, "embraced" you mean clotheslined, and "uplifted" you mean having people talk down about her accomplishments....yah. Spot on. I see exactly what you are saying. Seriously, these women are the worst, and don't deserve Clark.

Given u$a has plenty of racism that gives whites so many equipment, teacher support, family income to afford supporting a kid through all the training etc etc, whites have so many privileges BUILT IN AT THE SYSTEMIC LEVEL.
Critics of Caitlin have cause.
Affluent White student-athletes are profiting from the labor of their poor Black peers, study says.
"A new study of the economics of college sports found that affluent White students are profiting off the labor of poor Black students.
The study from the National Bureau of Economic Research, published August 31, analyzed revenue data for all 65 athletic departments in the Power Five conferences, home to the NCAA’s top Division I men’s football and basketball programs, from 2006 to 2019. The researchers also collected data from student rosters across all sports in those departments in 2018, including data on the players’ ethnicity and hometowns.
The report found that the money generated by football and basketball programs - whose majority of players are Black - pays for the salaries of coaches and administrators, is used to upgrade facilities the teams use, and finances non-revenue sports played mostly by affluent White student athletes."
www.cnn.com/2020/09/08/us/ncaa-student-athletes-equal-pay-trnd/index.html
Given that the WNBA has be subsidized since its inception, the idiotic decision to leave Caitlin off the Olympic team is mind-numbing.
She’s a rookie not even a season and just like everyone else she has to earn it

(WHAT A SLAP IN THE FACE TO BOTH C.C. AND BBALL FANS ALL OVER THE WORLD !!!!!}
Lebron pointed out C.C.on his twitter feed mths/yrs ago and predicted both her accomplishments, future promise, and Professional jealousy/GRIEF before entering the WNBA. Kudos to him as well as Steph Curry who gave her "props" for all her skills/accomplishments displayed this season and previous college career.
I love how the men see through their BS.
Seats being sold massively thanks to Caitlin Clark. Chartered luxury flights thanks to Caitlin Clark. Record high TV audience thanks to Caitlin Clark. High tides elevate all boats, take advantage of the Clark’s tide and start selling the WNBA as a high quality sport product for the entire family, a lot of little girls will be watching now, otherwise return to the classical WNBA, full of unknown tattooed people and empty seats. It’s that simple.
Caitlin single handedly is responsible for the Explosion of viewership, attendence, ticket sales, ticket inflation and packed arenas all to see HER play. GO Caitlin! Be all you can be!
No one gives a damn.
Should automatically be rookie of the Year. She might even be MVP.
Not single handedly....but yes she is responsible for majority...the media has hyped up the Cait hate...because it draws views...but you can see Caitlin is tired and stressed out...hope she rides it out!
Angel Reese does deserve credit whether people like it or not. That rivalry between her and Clark IS WHY the viewership went up so much.
Reese is a show off she wants to noticed needs attention
nobody is watching WNBA just to see Reese, but a lot of people are watching WNBA just to watch Caitlin Clark.
“Everybody knows that the reason why our teams around the league are having sellouts are because Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever are coming to town.” - Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve
Teams across the league that are hosting the Fever have had to move their games to bigger venues. The Dallas Wings even had a packed game for the preseason contest against the Fever.
“So far this season, games featuring Caitlin Clark have accounted for over ONE THIRD of the WNBA’s entire TV ad revenue. The Caitlin Clark effect is real.” - Fanatics Sportsbook
When the Fever played the Lynx there were 18,000+ fans at the Target Center.
Reese stats are padded big time. Shes not dominating like they make it sounds.
Right. The ONLY reason I watch is Caitlin. Before her, I'd rather do all sorts of things other than watch the WNBA. I never even checked their game schedules until CC. Now I check to make sure I don't miss one of her games.
correct! i don't care about angel i just want to watch clark and that's it
I to only watch want to watch A SUPERSTAR LEGEND CATLIN CLARK ❤
That's the bit I don't get. CC has brought a new audience and lots of attention. Why don't the other players celebrate that as an opportunity for them as well? If they continue to rubbish CC is there somewhere else she can go? If she did go the reality check to the others would be funny.

@@SquirtlePower809 I think they are bitter, but these women have put in the effort way before Caitlyn was ever on the scene.

These ladies are just saying that she is a great college player but she hasn't proved anything yet. Two national championship losses are not great on the resume. It just feels a little pushed and not genuine. She leads the league in turnovers with 42 more than the next person.

She's the only rookie that is top 5 in every major statistic. Pts, reb, ast, steals etc. Her 3pt% (on 8 attempts against double and triple teams) is only 3% lower than Angel Reese's 2pt average. She's not overhyped, she's a rookie that is adjusting to a league that is against her, including her own teammates.

Her home court had an average attendence under 6k last year. Now it's almost 19k. That says it all.
But the league and the players don't have to care because they still get paid because the men pay the bills for them. If not they would have to clean up their act and make the league more appealing to the average sports fan.

Don't they realize the increased ticket sales leads to increased tv contracts leads to higher pay all around. They are trying to kill their own golden Goose
Now Reese is playing the victim card. We heard her say she would accept the bad guy role. Now she’s claiming her mental health is at stake because people hate her. She brought it all on herself! These people are so insane. Just play basketball.
Which is exactly what CC is attempting to do….IMO
Clark keeps it about the team in the press - yes, she gets fired up in the game & sometimes and talks smack (don’t they all?)
No one is perfect.
But Clark is never “look at me or poor me” in the press like Reese
Reese is "playing the victim card" in an attempt to do what? Explain.
There’s not enough time here. She’s clearly doing that. Don’t play dumb. Do your own research. Listen to her own words. She’s a very ignorant person, it must be exhausting to be that hateful and stupid your whole life.
Is hate and jealousy now considered mental health?
Well of course to be the victim. Bless her heart, Reese is so pitiful. So unfair that CC is receiving more attention.😢

Right?! So much for "women supporting women." Two-faced, as always. Let's pretend to cheer each other on just for the praise of it, but when it comes to actually supporting each other? Forget it. It's sad.
"Don't try to understand women, women understand women and they hate each other." - Al Bundy
They would if she were a black woman
It's why the Kardashians succeeded they painted themselves as idiots.. intentionally. People don't like watching smart, or successful people.. they like watching stupid people, who seem to luck into success
I am only watching a video like this because of one name, Caitlin Clark.
If WNBA and all its members would embrace this fact, they would be better off for it.
This is beginning to be a hostile environment. They need to listen to themselves. The ones in charge need to address. ❤️🙏🇺🇸
Never Back Down Kaitlyn you are supported
If Caitlyn retires tomorrow. Everyone will stop watching the WNBA.
This is a crazy take but absolutely factual.
The league would probably have to fold. It only still exists today because the NBA teams sponsor them.
NO SHE DONT
Why does the NBA, and WNBA, treat white people like crap? No one will answer that one though.
Nope
Most of us have never heard of ANY of them--past or present--until watching this video. I'm only watching this because of CC
She absolutely has me watching. Could not have cared less about the WNBA before CC.
No one keeps women down more than women.
And nobody holds black people down more than black people, so black women, forget about it.
It's very upsetting to see Caitlin get hit in the head going to the hoop - and then hearing smart people like Monica McNutt and Rebecca Lobo not call out the jealousy.
This segment reminded me of the movie‘white man can’t jump’, Caitlin Clark earned everything she’s gotten. Why Ice Cube offered her $5 million is because he believes that she’s that good, she’s worth it. Don’t hate, appreciate!
There is something about her, something that makes her different from all those other WNBA players, that Ice Cube liked that all of the other wnba players just don't have! That's part of the reason that she is hated.
Give Ms. Clark credit for her successful work.
DON'T you notice something in common with all these women bashing the new star? It is blatant and so revealing of the origin of hatred and division in our contemporary society.
Maybe it's time to stop hiding our faces and denounce this growing cultural hatred.
But they try to say they can’t be racist. Good gracious how obviously Racist they are.
This is the lefts doing they teach people to hate. Haven't you noticed how full on hateful the protesters are now and I don't mean just in the last couple of years either
Time for a divorce.. a CLEAN BREAK.
Yea diana turasi
Breanna Stewart
Sabrina ionescu
All white players who publicly bashed and criticize CC
@wallrider76 when that's going to start in juzember.🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭
College women's basketball in 2023 is waaaay more competitive than in the 70s and 80s, Woodard played in a joke league
Kinda like Wilt. Built for today, playing 40 years ago. Wemby would have averaged 100 pts a game.
Maybe, but the fact remains that Catlin played with a much smaller basketball. And that did make a difference.
@@marcusrex77 ever watched her technique? she'd still be cookin her opponents womens OR mens size, doesnt matter, that Lady got something 90% of these ugly ass jelly beans dont have: class, skill and talent.
This puts in evidence why it's not always men who stop women from achieving goals.
The pettiness of women comes through LOUD AND CLEAR !!!!
That woman held the record for 43 years - why isn't she just proud of that fact? And if it was so easy now why has no-one else beaten it? You could equally argue it was easier in her day because the skill level was lower.
Reese making out that she is the "superstar" and conveniently forgetting it's a team sport and she is just a cog like Caitlin.
The USA Team thing is silly because I didn't see Reese's name there either so obviously relying on established players.
CC is a phenom and players like her just don’t come along every year! Some are calling her a generational phenom!
I’m not paying attention to the WNBA for any other reasons than Caitlin Clark !
She is just Great, she is the Michael Joardan of the WNBA ; and she is taking all that Abuse with Grace and Class
Definite racism against Clark but they won’t admit it !
@dennismount the jealousy towards CC may be related to the fact that she's white, but not for the reason you're implying. much like Eminem in hip-hop, and much like Tiger Woods in golf, she became the most popular WNBA player (in part) because people like an underdog, and people like someone who they relate to and see themselves in. and because she became the most popular player in WNBA history before even proving anything, naturally there's going to be jealousy. that would explain why there isn't and wasn't some huge conspiracy against Kelsey Plum, Breanna Stewart, Sabrina Ionescu, and all the other white players in the W, who also (as it turns out) are the most popular players in the league.
@@ReignMaker26it is. It's okay
True
@@ReignMaker26 If she were black, Clark wouldn't be getting bullied. Clark's the most popular player because she's one of the WNBA players who's actually GOOD.
@@Falconlibrary to be clear, I like CC and her game. but if you're calling the fouls that she's taking 'bullying', I encourage you to look up more clips of the physicality of the play in the WNBA. Unlike the rage bait clips you're seeing on social media are leading you to believe, she isn't being exclusively targeted with physical play - this is how the league is. It just doesn't get shared all over social media when it happens to any other player. Do some searching and you'll see... Or, you know, watch a few games.
I saw a comment that hit the nail on the head "Caitlin Clark doesn't need the WNBA, the WNBA needs Caitlin Clark" How many WNBA games were sold out before she was drafted??
She should go where she is appreciated, maybe head over to WNBL in Australia and make them rich!
Are we seeing black privilege and entitlement?
Pure racist anti-whiteism.
100000000% as usual and women jealous of other women and trying to tear them down. Just laughably stupid and entitled. Like literal children.
yes
No, we're seeing jealousy.
@@alfreeman728Racism and Lesbian rage as well .
I used to really admire Sheryl Swoopes and sought her out for an autograph when I was young. Now I'm just disappointed in her and all of the other former athletes like Dawn Staley. Petty is a good word for all these women. No wonder the WNBA has never been interesting to the general public.
Sheryl Swoopes = best player in WNBA history. Her whole stance is Respect those that came before you. Fullstop.
"We want her to come to the WNBA where she will be celebrated and embraced and uplifted." And how did THAT turn out? That's some high-quality BS right there.
03:30 how petty and small of this old lady , laughable to think she played in a tougher time.. just lies...
officiating has hanged in both the mens and womens league... there is the same discussion about NBA records from era to era.
I just now realized it was Lynette's record she broke. Back in the day, Lynette was from my home town, Wichita, Kansas. She kind of did the same thing CC did-she got people interested in women's basketball. She was awesome, she could dunk, and she was the first woman to play for the Harlem Globetrotters. I was always proud of her- until today. She used to have class, or so I thought...
@@allenwhitmer8192 I think her point that her record involved scoring more baskets with an unminiaturized ball had considerable merit, though she ought to have refrained from putting it as ~"my record hasn't been broken".
@@gandydancer9710 I totally agree, if she had said something like back in day, we used a men's size ball and just left it at that. Man, Lynette could dunk that old ball, I wonder what she could have done with the little one they use today. Would have loved to seen it. They say she beat Darnell Valentine, a fellow Jayhawk and future NBA guard at the time, in a dunking contest. He also was from Wichita. I'm disappointed with her, but I still love her. She was so fun to watch
I can already hear Angel Reese "It's because of me too". The only reason people would tune in to see Angel Reese, is to see her get beat!
I love it. You're right Reese is so jealous of Caitlin and should be. She's 10 times the player Reese will ever dream to be.!! Caitlin rookie of the Year the year
If something happend to Caitlin I'd go back to not giving a spit about WNBA
These women should be ashamed of their pettiness and Swopes lies. Shame on them.
Blk people have no shame
The worst thing is I haven't seen any of her "teammates" standing up for her. You don't let someone rock your rookie, superstar or not, like that.
Aleha Boston has
In Hockey if you f with a rookie or superstar, it is almost a death sentence
Agreed! She has elevated the TEAM maybe they should circle the wagons for her.
@@Hokieredneck The girl who bodychecked her before the ball was even in play should've been on her ass 3 seconds later.
The has beens need to get over it. The current cry babies are petulant and will regret how history views them.
57 man… CC is the Larry Bird of the WNBA… and let’s remember Magic Johnson was the runner up ROOKIE OF THE YEAR to Larry Bird… that’s how good Bird was and CC plays like … Magic Johnson was amazing and a thrill to watch… not a hater!!! Shame on the Caitlin Haters…
This is one of the reasons people don’t support women basketball. Disrespecting each other does not bring respect to the league. Embrace this young lady and give her the opportunity to help the league.
Nobody hates seeing a woman succeed more than another woman
Bully lesbian culture. Jealousy!!
Exactly, cause she moves people, inspires the younger and older generation
If records have to be broken within the same number of games, that would mean that Babe Ruth is still the all time home run king.
... true, but Catlin was using a different sized ball when she broke the record. How would Ruth like it if modern day baseball players could hit a ball that is three times the size that he played with.
@@marcusrex77or if these new players had science, technology, diet, etc to help with their game. It would be like cheating!!!!
@@lloydavery2and2make5 ... true.
@marcusrex77 OHMY GOD, I played Basketball with the neighborhood Boys in the late 60's & 70' s, they came to me they needed another player and I had the Ball,A Full size Ball & out shot them all! I Prefer the bigger Ball to the smaller Ball !!
‘No one knew Woodard or her record until CC broke it!’ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
they finally have a player garnering a massive audience and they’re all upset it’s not them. They should be thanking her for the paychecks to come.
"Celebrated, embraced, and up lifted." Wouldn't that be nice! Jealousy and racism is more factual.
her biggest "haters" are also white women you dumbass
yeah - because right now they aren't being notice -- but if Caitlin was there - they could talk all the thrash they want and maybe get notice ....
It's all about the perception of skin. tired of that. no one cares
The thing is, Caitlin deserves all the respect and attention she's getting. She was born to play basketball
Just start pulling their wigs off.
Get Snatched 😂😂😂
fake humans they are
White girl IS showing out!!
Proud moment!! I’m not racist I’m just proud of my Irish heritage and I stand on that!
Now this behavior makes me want to root against the WNBA. It’s so uninspiring and pathetic.
I already have been routing for the WNBA Demise When they chose to support the trade of The Merchant of Death for only Brittany Griner! The only reason I have any interest in the WNBA now is because of Caitlin End of discussion. One person ruin the whole league now one person is bringing back interest Tell me who is the valuable between those two.
Seeing how the Wnba players hate Catlin reminds me of the 2006 movie Mean Girls. I learned a lot from watching that movie.
@@marcusrex77
Maybe they should have a
TEAM watch party for that movie …..
@@cindipossidento5688 ... I agree.
the league is still very mediocre. Women play very soft defense, never jump against a shooter near the basket.
The real elephant in the room is who are complaining? BLACK WOMEN!!!💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯👍😎 ONLY BLACK WOMEN ...
ONLY them EVER.. The marriage failed,let’s try the divorce now.. 🤷♂️
They will get lots of white old lady college professors to complain as well!
You noticed that too ..... ;-)
Diana turasi
Breanna Stewart
Sabrina ionesca
You guys are so hateful and racist that you turn a blind eye towards your owns actions
It has been primarily WNBA veterans despite race... ua-cam.com/video/fYDCPfk1MQ0/v-deo.html
Know that excellence silences all critics. Let's be happy for the WNBA and they need better pay... $80k/year is sad.
Wow! The jealousy is openly blatant. I think Caitlin needs a body guard.
A sad and unfortunate probability. Who knows a riot may even start because Catlin is racist 😂
Weak jealous people criticize, but strong, confident people celebrate others accomplishment. These woman are so jelly, they look bad.
