There's a tangible reason people instinctively reject the WNBA.

From all accounts, it's a cult...that has little to do with just basketball.

After weeks of misogynistic posters here ranting because Clark became the NCAA all time leading scorer in Basketball. Surpassing a number by a segregated era & inefficient shot jacker. Now they are projecting .

Racists make everything about race, so it makes sense they wrote an article about race.

The divide continues.

Reporters are generally stupid and biased. To have these goofballs mass producing such tripe is terrible. I don't know who is worse, the "writers" or those who ingest it.

The story should be, the wnba needs viewers and fans to make money, and color shouldn't matter.

What is odd is how you guys search out for these news articles so you can come here and be mad about it.

Anyways, what a dumb arse article.

It’s always fun to swap the words “black” and “white” in articles like this to really put into perspective how wildly racist it is.

How the shite does this stuff get published, seriously


Because the USA Today and its publisher, Gannett, are a joke and have been almost since the inception of both. Gannett local newspapers are shoe-string budget operations in both small towns and big cities. And they run articles like this in syndication in those fishwraps.

No, he’s not. He’s an almost-60yo clown living with roommates in a closet saying inflammatory dumb shite for clicks, and so many morons eat it up because they like to see a black person toeing the line for white supremacy. He’s just a male Candace Owens. Sorry, it’s true.

How can any self respecting White person be ok with this? Diminishing White achievement is a liberal sport.

Fixed for you

How can an editor, a subscriber, or any rationale person read this article and say “yep,spot on”. It certainly doesn’t pass the “what’s good for the goose” test.

Seems to me the faces of any sport should be their best and most popular players but I'm sure that's racist somehow

Get your black arse back on that plantation, ain’t that right Sorantable. Black peoples aren’t supposed to be free thinkers. You’re a racist piece of shite and don’t even recognize it.

Clark is a lethal shooter who lives up to the hype and gets people watching/talking about women's hoops for all the right reasons.

I couldn't give less of a shite about her skin color.
