Clark has played less games.

That’s the issue here. The stats thrown out were all wrong.


It's bad enough when people use verbal graffiti when they speak, but it's somewhat understandable. When people actually write out "I mean", "So", "I feel like", etc., they lose 50% credibility right off the bat.

this just highlights some of these deeper issues

Clark is putting woman’s basketball back on the map, driving ratings and putting a positive spotlight on the sport…yet now it needs to be a race thing because black women feel like this is “their sport” i guess? I’m not sure what else would be driving all of this

I think someone is getting pissy that there will be another comparison of players similar to what Don Imus did back in the day when it was Rutgers vs either Tennessee or UCONN.

I think the best part of this is Kelsey Plum being a whiney bitch about the record being broken:

quote:

I remember, to be honest, [the record] was very much a low point in my life," Plum said. "It felt like a lot of pressure, and my identity was kind of caught up in that record.

Are Swoopes comments racially motivated? They are dead wrong obviously but why does this matter?

Is that why the Tap dancing types can't wait to get to pwi schools & touch the hem of White folks garments? Keep buying them & using them with your trinkets & shiny objects & exploiting centuries of conditioning.

Swoopes couldn't imagine playing for anyone else , but a pwi. Even Kim Mulkey is a little embarrassed that her career is built on 95% of these fools & even wants to help poor HBCU'S. How sweet of her.

Nothing triggers black lesbians more than a straight white girl being the GOAT in their sport.

Not sure why anyone listen's to Gilbert's podcast. It's always been little more than older washed up players constantly looking for ways to shite on younger players b/c they are jealous as hell that current basketball players get way more money and are much more famous.

How much credibility do they lose for pulling a made up stat out of their arse in an attempt to waive away the subject of a post over the crime of using conversational verbiage?

Swoopes is one of the biggest racist, fraud POS out there. I could care less about Clark, esp since she's turned out to be a flopping crybaby, but SS can shove it.

This kind of goes with my initial reaction that we (and the WNBA) are apparently old enough for there to be an older generation pulling the "back in my day" bullshite. I'm shocked didn't didn't go to the standard barbershop talk well and say they don't play defense anymore or that she doesn't have some random intangible.

Instead she just lied
