re: Caitlin Clark, much like Larry Bird, the focus of talks about race and double standards

Do we know that Clark fans are only white? I don’t even know how you quantify what she is claiming. Are they taking surveys at each of her games and Clark’s games to compare?

This is people burying their head in the sand

Absolutely Lamar Jackson and Mike Vicks huge support from the black community is due in part because of race, same for bird and now Clark. That isn’t saying those of the other race don’t also cheer for them, but then being huge success in areas their race isn’t traditionally so is a major part of the appeal

Let me guess you also think the Cooper Dejean angle and support has nothing to do with being a white CB

The race card and such has been abused so much that one side is now afraid to ever admit race plays a party in anything, and the other side says race is everything always
