Issues like this one are why we can be certain we don't have a free market. The feelings and desires of the consumers and organic demand are NOT what is being used to drive product development and pricing. Makes me wonder if we truly know anything about what Americans really wants or thinks, about anything.

She's a great female basketball player. But she wouldn't have gotten anywhere close to Maravich's record if she had been playing against boys. |

Haven't watched TV in years, so whatever.
As far as Clark, she isn't in the WNBA. Just a good women's bball player and i hate bball and women's sports. It's a pretty significant record that she blew way out of the water. I try not to shit on other people's big accomplishments when I don't have that talent myself, but you all do you. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By RIP-Yataski: Who?... ...the what? Iowa women's basketball star who is absolutely dominant through skill (women's BB players who dominate usually are because of mannish athleticism). excellent shooter and ball handler. 32 points, 9 assists per game this season, shooting 46% overall and 38% from deep. I think there is a small section of sports media that is desperate for a female BB player who can match up against her male peers. Clark is the closest there has been to that that I can recall - and she's still not that close. |

What a stupid rant.
I'm not a fan of women's basketball but her situation will completely change WNBA. She puts people in seats. Basically the women's equivalent of a Stephen Curry outside the arc. She can bang almost half court shots but also not some cocky "it's all about me." She has a bunch of assists too. A type of person that can read the game, offense and defense. Hate all you want but she has the NCAA all-time scoring record, men AND women. She beat out Pete "Pistol" Maravich!! A person they've made MOVIES about. Plus she's inspiring. She's not on social media being a jackass, flashing fancy watches/wealth, she just fucking plays basketball. It's a good thing for the sport and will inspire a lot of girls looking for a good "idol" type. She's going to fill seats in the WNBA and likely raise the bar. We're talking about a women's college athlete that is a rarity and we're seeing some special right now. Like a Mia Hamm for women's soccer.  Caitlin Clark Deepest 3s So Far In 2023 |

Let's see her play with the best of the best women's college players versus a middle of the road boy's high school team..... There are levels to this stuff and we know the outcome..... Good for her but I am uninspired as the father of 2 young women. 1 of my daughters was not interested in her D1 scholarship offers for soccer because academics were the easier path and women's soccer pays zero dollars for the work of 2-3 fulltime jobs. Of course it is very telling when Clark is at the peak of her career in college and her income will only decrease from here. She is a 1 time in a generation talent and the paychecks drop off when she goes off to the joke that is the wnba.

Here is my favorite video of her. Back when she was in high school.
A bunch of opposing high school dorks come to the game just to taunt her. Have chants and everything in a small court so the player's hear everything. Caitlin Clark is cold blooded and downs 42 points. Watch the entire video. It's hilarious how cocky they are and how they become silent.  #1 PLAYER Caitlin Clark RESPONDS To OVERRATED Chants With 42 Points! |

She puts down high scores, isn't doing keg stands on social media, and just seems like a genuinely good human being. Why would you pick her, of all people, to complain about? |

The fact you think I am coming down on her is a prime example of the problem. That is great she did well in college sports as a woman against women. None of us outside of a few folks would know anything about her if it were not for the women are as good as men narrative being pushed. She is a great GENERATIONAL Women's talent. She is not great when placed in competition against men. She is being used as a tool of promotion until the next William "Lia" Thomas basketball comes to make a complete joke of women's sports. |

No is making this comparison unless they're an idiot. A top women's tennis player likely couldn't beat a 500th seeded men's player. Again, if you know of this imaginary "men's vs women's" sports league, please, let's hear it. She's inspiring for a lot of youth. A good role model. I can't for the life of me figure out why so many of you want to shit on her or downplay her talents. It's not like she's going around on social media claiming to beat Jordan in his prime. She's just playing the game and having fun. Usually this is when people lose the argument and the "cucks" "white knight" personal attacks start flowing. Got my Bingo card out waiting for those. |

As far as I know she is not a lesbian and that seems to be at the center of the conversation. The angry black lesbians in the WNBA do not want her there.There have been past and present players alike verbally say as much.They don’t want an attractive,straight, white female to be the face of the WNBA. The WNBA is a league of gay feminist. They also don’t like the white girl that damn near beat Steph Curry shooting 3 pointers at the all star game. |
