She doesn't play against men so this is completely irrelevant.

So why try to compare her to Pistol Pete? The stupidity of that knows no bounds.

It brings me great joy that Jemele Hill probably dies a little more inside with each 3 Caitlin Clark drains against her sistas.

We shouldn't. I hate that narrative too.

I am just pointing out how much people have jumped the shark with their take on this. Like what is the point in running the narrative that she is better than Pete Maravich or best shooter period.


No one says this except maybe some middle aged women on Facebook. Nobody whose opinion is worth noticing even remotely thinks she could play in the NBA or even men's CBB. It doesn't take anything away from what she's doing though.

It's like comparing players from different eras. Yes, a scrub in the NBA today would have dominated in the 60s. But what she is doing vs. her peers is as impressive as what the elite men's shooters have done. It's not that difficult to understand/acknowledge.

Wow,even for her that's a stretch. College basketball ratings are great the last two years but with Caitlyn and Angel leaving, it will likely slip back to the mean.

And WNBA ratings? Exploding?

This is exactly why I’ll never understand the argument these weirdos make about women’s sports not getting the same funding/attention etc. If the women of this country watched in bulk like the males do it would solve the problem itself. The difference is, a vast Marjory of the female population also does not watch women’s sports.

He concluded his argument by saying, “You all, you failed them. Not me, not men. Women failed the WNBA.”


I have 3 sisters, 2 watch CFB and MLB, 1 watches CFB, NFL, NBA...None have ever watched the WNBA or really any female pro sports even though they played them in high school.

Women just like men like to watch the best, excellence...The only...ONLY reason the women's CBB (well games Iowa is in) get the ratings is because of Caitlin Clark because we've never seen a female do what she's doing.

As,Paul Pierce said, there have been other Cynthia Coopers, Diana Taurasis, Sue Bird's, Angel Reese...they all can be compared to each other, you can't compare Clark to any female player before...no female has controlled, shot, distributed the ball as a PG like she has.

Just kind of feel bad for someone that can’t enjoy anything because she has to find some racial component to it. It has to be a pretty miserable existence

People that let politics/race guide their entire lives just suck….of course this also applies to many on this board

I’m a pretty big sports fan and the only women’s basketball games I’ve watched in the last 2 years have had Caitlin Clark playing. I’m sure I’m not the only one.

She’s nothing more than a racist with an extremely low IQ.

I beg to differ. No one watches WNBA. And, Hill is a total racist that will interject racism in any subject to stir the pot and keep the paycheck coming.

I think the Game is in a solid place with Mikayla Williams, Juju, Hannah Hildalgo, Fulwiley. There are a lot of flashy stars in this last freshman class
