The haters are pulling their hair and wigs out. Caitlin continues to take the high road. She's killing them with kindness. It's beginning to look like the disdain and jealousy from her teammates is slowly turning to respect and acceptance. Maybe they are beginning to realize that she can help them win games and help the league and everyone else's notoriety. They know that she is the recipient of cheap shots. They see her dignified responses to them. How can anybody not respect her unwavering grace under fire. Her humility when she has an off game. How she deflects praise when she has a good game. How she praises her haters, and detractors at every turn. Maybe they are starting to realize that there really isn't any logical reason to hate her. If anything, there is every reason in the world to embrace her, and befriend her instead. She is class personified. And she is showing the world that she has " true grit ". Imagine trying to uplift a league that in turn spites you for it. 12:07 Her only crime is that she is going to make everyone more popular and financially secure. All while never taking credit for it. Being hated, while helping the haters. She may not have the player's support, but she has the support of millions of descent fans, and non fans alike. Believe it or not, morals, and integrity matter. You will never bring her down, because she is innately good, and kind. America recognizes it, and is empowered by it.
2 things can true at the same time… you can make a “basketball play” and still try to intentionally hit a person. There is a clear difference in the way they play defense against CC and everyone else, especially Angel Reese.
Angel is consistent with giving the wrong answer. Always throws shade, then doubles down. Even when she seems to take the high road it looks forced, like she was told to do so. Hey WNBA, you're making things worse for yourself, not better.
@@juliusmoore2176 don’t push race, don’t push politics and actually talking about WNBA games and performances on the court. Doug is apart of it all acting like he’s not.
A flagrant foul is NOT a “basketball play” by definition. Any attempt to rationalize it away as something less is pure ignorance, or someone pushing a narrative.
She was factually helping college basketball the last seasons. Her social media presence and NIL show that. You need a villain for your drama and soap opera to work. And the media and fake new fans are all about the soap opera not the sport. Reese was the happy, willing villain. I don't like her nor the rest of her class less team at LSU. But acting like she had no part is what's delusional
Iowa vs UConn: Caitlin and Paige freshman year DID NUMBERS! They were battling for Player of the Year too. Caitlin was known before her junior year. Some people are just not paying attention.
I disagree because Paige was the undisputed IT Girl in America leading a basketball factory named the Connecticut Lady Huskies, while Caitlin wasn’t Caitlin yet. So stop the BS sir👎🏿
@@vincente4570 You have to go look at their freshman game matchup in the sweet 16. It’s like the 2nd most viewed ever. Caitlin was 26-5-7 that year. Sophomore season Paige got hurt and Maddy Siegrist and Caitlin were going back and forth with PPG that season. Paige did not fully come back until this past season because she got hurt before her return the junior year. I’m from Connecticut and watched UConn basketball since at least 99’
@@jalennelson6599 Say what you want. But I bet if Geno A. Could have recruited Caitlin to that basketball factory known as UCONN.

But of course you being a female basketball enthusiast. You’re surprising me by not backing my statement about Paige Bueckers. So ok, I won’t criticize your lack of supporting UCONN basketball. But I digress😎
Doug ..... Caitlin came onto the scene her freshman year in the NCAA Regional when Iowa beat Kentucky and Caitlin launched a bunch of threes right out of her ass from 30' ..... and I was hooked ........her passing was unreal ..... she led the Big Ten in points and assists as a freshman...... after that game Iowa played UCONN and Paige and the 'women's basketball world' watched that match up ...... as always, UCONN and Geno (the goat) had five '5 stars' .... and Iowa had a team of white girls who were a half a step slower ....... and they got clocked ......
Hmmm... i do agree that it wasn't as bad as it looked. But I agree with the Refs. You gotta send a message to any and all players in the WNBA. Players will start to have "plays at the ball" with a little reckless head hitting. It would open the door for bad actors. I say good call.
Oh, snap!!! Doug said the quiet part out loud!!!! He might as well drop the other shoe and say that's the main reason for the lack of support from the mainstream media and fans!
@Gnofg I didn't make the rules. But they are there to protect the players. If the roles was reversed what would everybody say. Everybody would be calling racism. But it's not. It was just poor judgement thinking you could block a shot on a ball that was clearly a foot past her finger tips. Just poor rookie judgement. After all a foul is a foul regardless of skin color.
@@hillbillyslots1636 It was a common foul. The rule sucks in every league. There is no intent. No one can cite a basketball player who ended up with CTE from being hit in the head on a foul. This should have never been a rule.
Lol I've never seen a club to the head defended like this ever your better than this Doug but boy are you wrong watch the play she never had a chance to get the ball but she swung for the fences at her head
I have to take issue with your take that Angel Reese does not exist in the public space without Caitlin Clark. Caitlin Clark would not have been known beyond the small group of sports fans who were already watching women’s basketball if Reese would not have made them famous in 2023. I knew who Reese was long before I knew who Clark was, and that’s because it’s Reese who made them famous beyond people who were already watching women’s basketball.
Angel Reese has 3.4 million followers on Instagram and I think a million or so on X and not to mention the other social media platforms. So Caitlin was telling the truth dear … ✌️ That arm swipe was absolutely intended….. I’m an idiot most days and I have body-spatial-awareness…. Less than these athletes ….and acting like Reese just doesn’t know her own body mechanics and spatial awareness…. Please! Maybe it was a surprise that Caitlin’s head wasn’t the ball…. Gosh maybe , I mean Reese is still a young player so she’s got time learn the difference 🙄🤣 She knew what she was doing. Just too bad Reese has no fear of push back…. She needs a bit of street ball to get some respect to well up. But It’s all good…. As long as she doesn’t go too far.
At least this is a reasonable analysis instead of acting like Caitlin is being persecuted and that everyone hates her and is jealous of her. This was actually a reasonable sports analysis on the foul itself. Sports media would be better off if more of the takes were in this mold.
“Woman aren’t that athletic”. Idk man, gymnastics are probably one of the most athletic sports which primarily seem to be woman competing in them. I’ve never seen someone control their body mid air doing 50 flips and landing perfectly on their feet and thought “those girls are really unathletic”.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, WHOOOOOOA. WNBA palyers are dating each other? Does Monica Mcnutt know about this? Does Chiny Ogumike? This is the kind of inside info. that seems like a juicy story.
Everybody in the wnba gives a crap EXCEPT for CC . CC is living rent free in angels head and a lot of others heads . CC doesn’t say a word about or to anyone . Nobody would know who Reese was if Reese beat ANYBODY ELSE for that college title . But she beat Clark and thinks that she’s Batman to CCs Robin which is absolutely hilarious .
We clamor for authenticity and you get, you claim you want PC. It seems time like you’re just gonna switch to whatever gets likes. Kind of disappointed at how when someone is being authentic and honest about their feelings, y’all go in.
The Chicago Sky have only two flagrant fouls this season and both are on Caitlin Clark.
She brings the best out of them or the worst since they keep losing to her.
Excellent take. It was intentional. Reese is a bad faith player and she hates CC with a passion.
