You can’t call this league anything but a mafia of privileged blacks and white rich progressives thinking only a black can lead the league or bring in an audience.
Not so; Clark has brought this league alive, and people are interested in her, not the woke BS coming from managers and owners with the refs joining in as well. The WNBA can’t ever survive on its own with the NBA providing $50M each year. You would think they would promote Clark like others in the league, but they degrade this professional and actually are trying to hurt her, which should be a crime because these attacks are intentional.
It is unbelievable that this league can’t define a woman, support trans, and we don’t know if they will allow a man to play as a woman. But they support the ideology because so many of the women are part of the LGBTQ group, trying to force this on the league.
Here come the men with two professionals who played in the NBA identifying as women for the 2027 draft, and the league cannot stop them unless they define a “woman”. Good job, guys; let’s turn this ideology around by forcing women to define a woman. OMGosh, I can’t even believe I’m saying that; how in the hell did we get here? We, you and I, let ideologies from those who are out of touch teach our kids, and we are now paying for that. The silent majority stayed silent when it was time to stand up. Have faith, though; we will come back. All IMO.
“The “W” in the WNBA is starting to stand for “What the …?”
The so-called sports league that’s more famous for its controversies than its competition notched another embarrassing moment over the weekend when Caitlin Clark, its best player and biggest celebrity, was hit with a ludicrous technical foul that would have meant a one-game suspension.
Upon further review, the league decided that apparently wasn’t warranted at all, but by then, the damage had been done — especially considering this was the same game that witnessed a veritable criminal assault on the WNBA’s second-most talked-about player.
The Clark “foul” occurred Saturday when the Indiana Fever point guard and the WNBA’s marquee name was bumped under the basket by a player for the opposing Chicago Sky. As Clark’s momentum took her out of bounds, she looked for a teammate to pass the ball to to keep the play alive.
With her eyes still directed to the court, rather than where she was going, Clark made contact with baseline official Genesis Perrymond, who immediately called a technical foul on Clark.
Clark was clearly stunned by the call. Fever coach Stephanie White also got a technical of her own for arguing with the official.
“My tech was for saying, ‘That’s bulls***,’” White said after the game, according to The Athletic, the New York Times-owned sports website. “Even though I heard the f-bomb the whole f***ing game. My tech was for saying ‘That’s bulls**.’ That’s a bad call.
“Incidental contact when you’re flying out of control. And I thought [Perrymond’s officiating crew] should’ve come up to her and talked her about that as well. … That s*** happens all the time in the game. Officials have to have some awareness in those moments, and it didn’t happen.”
It would have been Clark’s eighth technical foul of the season, The Athletic reported, which would have required a one-game suspension under league rules.
Within hours, the call was overturned.”
