re: Fox News Agrees with Angel

So does NPR....a reporter calls the difference in reaction to Clark and Angel doing the same thing evidence of a clear double standard. Seems like there is growing backlash to the way Angel was treated initially on social media and the press.

Which is exactly what Reese set out to accomplish. I have to give her credit here. That was well-played. She absolutely proved her point whether people want to agree with it or not. She has been unfairly criticized all season for the way she trash talks while other star players in women's basketball do it and nothing is ever said about this. No judgement towards them.

It's an absolute fact and it's wrong to single her out. Either be against it entirely and call out the others in the same fashion or respect their passion on the court. They are making the sport incredibly interesting by having personalities.

Clark is no saint on the floor. Louisville's star player is no saint on the floor. And, IMO, it's great for the sport. It adds more excitement. However, Reese doesn't deserve all the classless talk she has received even by LSU fans. That bothers me so much that our own fans have shite on her all season long.

By all accounts Reese is a wonderful person off the court. She is a leader, great teammate, and she works hard. She is respectful of her elders. She even hugged Holly Rowe after their interview and it was so genuine. It was so sweet to see. I think it had such an impact on Holly that she is now defending Reese on social media as well.
