What if I told you there were no villains here?

Neither Reese or Clark are villains. Both are high level competitors. And trash talkers. It’s a false dichotomy. Both are winners . Both talk shite. They’d make great teammates and probably will on an Olympic team some day. A tip of the hat to both. I’m glad the one on my team wears the crown.

This is the thing here. All the virtue signalers criticizing Reese while portraying Clark is the innocent victim never played any sports or even watched much.

It's cool when Jordan, Bird, Burrow, Brady, etc do it.

But God forbid the girls do it.

Yeah I agree here.

This is to be expected when you play a game, no chance in hell everyone else on this board has not talked shite to someone else when in competition it’s human nature.

When Clark transfers here next year her and Reese will get along just fine. They will then talk mad shite to other teams together.

The only villain is the press. They are the ones who have had disparate reactions. Unfortunately a segment of the fan base is falling right into it and being lapdogs

Finally someone said it! When men do it then it’s swagger. Women do it then they’re classless.

This is why the media sucks. Regardless of your opinion on Reese’s behavior, the media could choose to focus on so many other positive storylines from yesterday but instead they are focused on making the controversy THE story.

It’s disgusting.

I’m hearing a backlash to the Olbermanns and McMurpheys. The chin- droolers always melt and then cooler heads prevail. That will be the case here.

Clark jaws plenty on the court, which is also fine.

You don't reach her level without hearing plenty of smack back at you.

I bet she didn't complain about any of it.

I would say you are being rational.

Exactly. This whole thing is getting blown way out of proportion.

Also was cool when Clark was doing it. Let some ghetto chick who looks and acts different do it though and…

For what she did? Correct.

Her speech afterwards was pathetic.

She said "Ya'll called me ghetto all season, this is for all the girls who look like me."

Went total victim, blamed racism and did indeed act ghetto by blaming everyone else.

He worries about being called ghetto, proceeds to be ghetto.

Until Reese brought race into it I would agree. But watching reesecall Clark a hoe and point to her ring finger was tasteless trash bullshite. Their entire argument was because they felt Clark disrespected a SC player. Like what.

It’s low class when anyone does it after you’ve won, unless they’ve been in your face telling you you’re garbage. People can talk smack in a friendly way, but people just take it too far. Had Iowa win, and Caitlin had done that to one of our girls, I would’ve been livid!

The media wanted Iowa to win.
The media hates LSU.

This is being spun a certain way.


Not a big deal to me. I love the salty trailer park Iowa fanbase crying. They need to hug their farm animals.

If Caitlin got in someone’s face after winning, then she’s equally classless.
