Caitlin Clark has generated tons of interest in women’s basketball because of her long-range shooting and deft passing. She’s been likened to Golden State Warriors great Stephen Curry, and that comparison ain’t crazy...that’s how special Clark is.

But some of the mania connected to Clark goes beyond the hardwood. She is the newest Great White Hope — a straight white woman excelling in a sport dominated by Black women.

Do they not want more diversity in their sport?

So someone comes along and raises interest in their league, with the potential to boost ticket sales which could generate more revenue that could be used to pay all players,
and they pull their pants down and shite all over her?

Have I got this right?

They would rather wallow together in a mediocre league than ascend on the waves created by one player who is the wrong ethnicity and wrong sexual orientation. This is the textbook example of crabs in a fricking bucket.

Putting the likes of Gerry Cooney in the same paragraph as Elvis is laughable.
And too often, whites have to pretend that underachieving and marginally qualified people like KJP and Kamala are somehow exceptional.

What would these people do if they didn’t have this shite to stir? It’s exhausting!

“She is the newest Great White Hope — a straight white woman excelling in a sport dominated by Black lesbian women.”

Sorry that most black girls are ugly and unlikeable. If they werent maybe black athletes would date black girls instead of blondes

Besides the fact that she's probably the best women's player in history, Caitlyn is much more marketable to a wide audience than the typical WNBA player. Money talks.

This is just stupid on so many levels.

Steph Curry is making stupid shots being guarded by the best athletes in the entire world regardless of sport. The level of skill for any NBA player to score on an NBA defense is unbelievable compared to the WNBA. I mean I don’t believe WNBA players are skilled enough to do anything on low end men’s college basketball. It could be a stretch to think they are skilled enough to be effective against top-end to elite boys highschool basketball.

Clark is embraced as the greatest scorer in the history of women’s college basketball, and it doesn’t matter that it’s not actually true: A Black woman — Pearl Moore of Francis Marion University in Florence, S.C. — still holds the record, set in the late 1970s


This is something that cracked me up. 99% of the time the statement “highest scorer in NCAA history.” I’m sure that somebody says “college” occasionally, but that’s just being a dick for being a dick’s sake. Most fanfare was because it was the NCAA record.

I promise the root would not bring this up if a black woman broke an NAIA white woman record.

This Greek MF’er used the exact same argument, 45 years ago, that these racist blacks are using today. Is there anything that the DEI crowd doesn’t plagiarize and regurgitate?

By postulating that blacks are as a race better athletes than whites does the door open for the discussion of other possible less flattering race based differences?

Thought basketball was pioneered by a white man? Isn't that cultural appropriation? And isn’t that a big no-no in their worldview?

It's The Root. Everything they print is racist strawman bullshite. They may as well write "kill whitey!" for 10 paragraphs per article and call it a day.
