The only reason she's filling up the stadiums is because the media is hyping her up. They never hyped up any black players like this, Even if they were on a crazy winning streak. YT Privilege
@haitiboijo You can't hype up mediocrity. Have you seen CC's list of accomplishments? Highest scoring player in the NCAA. That includes men. Education is a valuable tool.
@@raymnda7288 now anyone can write a book but I highly doubt she does that during her career that’s usually a retirement thing like Kareem did but no movies. It would be boring as fuck she is from Iowa!
Forgive my ignorance.. Did Larry Bird get a shoe deal? It seems Plenty of Black men in the NBA have gotten deals.. where is the love for the White NBA players?.. Answer: People watched Jordan.. that man was Bank from go.. stunning to watch for all the same reasons Clark is..
Who cares about the critics, she is an incredible basketball player and she is an incredible person, as long as this shoe deal doesn't change who she is, which I don't think it will, then who cares what people say, we need to go back and remember what our parents told us about sticks and stones.
All the haters just peanut butter and jelly. Sit down and enjoy the show. First time in wnba history people of all kinds are watching. By the thousands, not just the 2 whole people from last year. And hell yeah cc should get a shoe deal. She's the only one out here being a professional basketball player. And not bad mouthing other players or coaching staff. Her fans come to see HER in away games. And travel hours to see HER home games.
Mychal Thompson, former NBA player and current Lakers announcer (and father of Klay Thompson) said that Caitlin Clark came on his radar when she was a sophomore at Iowa and he immediately began telling people that Clark’s game was like nothing the women’s game had ever seen, that she was the female version of Steph Curry. That is the reason for Clark’s unprecedented popularity.
That's correct skin color has nothing to do with it I am a black man I enjoy watching hair her team is great I never miss a game those ladies can play some ball
No other WNBA player is like Caitlin Clark she set a number of NCAA records before landing in the WNBA. CC deserves it, because she's marketable, humble, understands PR, and just a phenomenal player. Hell, what was Caitlin to do turn down the shoe deal....please. All naysayers are just racists, or afraid to call out the truth. I'm black and not racist. Perhaps top black players should for their agents and not point fingers at Caitlin.
Well Diana Taurasi and Breanna Stewart are white and they were also hating on Caitlin Clark as well, and the WNBA white leadership snubbed Caitlin and left her off team USA, when she deserved to be on that team, so far she might have saved the WNBA
That's a big statement there. It's more like an African American problem. A victimization issue. I love Caitlin Clark. She's the only reason I watch, or i am interested in watching the WNBA. I like watching good basketball and she is a phenomenal baller. Go Fever, go!
I don’t think it’s only black people. However, it’s primarily black people, mostly females, that I’ve seen in the comments being rude about Caitlin. I’ve also seen quite a few black people who are very supportive of Caitlin. Seems like it’s open season to be anti-white right now, but I don’t think that applies to everyone by any means.
@carolinagirl7596 i was going to say ignore them, but don't point them out.. Some people are emotionally insecure and need to mature mentally. Stay blessed.
Caitlin Clark is a polarizing figure irregardless of her skin color. Nike chose her to break thru the wall and be the first. You can tell she’s the right person, the way she answers reporters questions, she’s honest, direct, and doesn’t get into personalities, unlike other players, mainly her arch nemesis (Angel “brick” Resse).
All the 22 jerseys have sold off the shelves, and her signature basket ball sold out Nike is going to make their money back in 6 months . I think everyone saw a gold mine and jumped in it. CC has the ability and a good attitude unlike all the players that do interviews and say me me me. CC lifts up others not her self.
When they have people traveling 23hrs from another country to watch them because you are THAT good like she does......they'll start getting deals. Angel and the others aren't getting a shoe deal because they promote nothing but hate which isn't profitable.
She is a child of God who went to a Catholic Christian school, brought up with her God loving parents. She is a beautiful woman inside and out, very humble and professional. I can see that she isn't trying so hard to get attention BUT IT'S GOD GIVEN BECAUSE OF HER HUMBLENESS SHE IS RECEIVING GREAT BLESSINGS FROM GOD. We need great models for the young. Her words are uplifting because she doesn't put anyone down. At the same time, she is Christ-like when she defends and always standing strong. She has a great character. People better stop looking at skin color because Jesus Christ dismantled this long ago when He met the Samaritan woman by the well. Back then The Jews and Samaritans didn't get along.
I think clark is going to get screwed out of rookie of the year but if she doesn't get player of the year i hope everyone follows me and protest the wnba can i get an amen!!!!!!! to this
As much as I think she deserves ROTY, I hope it goes to Angel so she doesn't bitch and whine all over social media and to anyone listening. The jealousy level is already high. Caitlin gets that award and players gonna just slam her all around the court. Unless the Fever gets smart and get an enforcer to protect her and not give a rats ass about anything else
@@clawson32104 you are so right that way they can't start with the racist shit they always use when they don't get what they think they deserve everybody should give credit where credit is due it ain't rocket science
Damn people just let the woman play ball she's good at it and she's getting better by the day I have never paid attention to women's basketball but when she's playing I tuned in and watch the game and she is good
I don't really get it. Simone Biles has dominated and taken over the press with Gymnastics. She's amazing and everyone loves her. Caitlyn Clark has dominated and taken over the press with basketball. She's amazing and everyone loves her. Can we stop thinking it's all about race please and just enjoy watching these phenomenal athletes. Also if I had to guess, Angel and Caitlyn are likely intentionally setting up a rivalry for the press and we are all being draw in to the drama like a bunch of suckers!!
Simple simple,they meaning the higher ups people in control,simply hyped her up like she is super good,Which she is not. She is ok,hasn't had the time to really shine,.many other players Wayyyyy better,not about race but honestly, SOCIAL MEDIA HYPED THIS FEMALE UP
It's because she's obviously a great young player, humble from what I've seen and very marketable, because she has that lovely young lady next door appeal! Good living and sweet! Good on us Caitlin! Love from DownUnder!😊👍🇦🇺
Hell they all hate her because she out plays them at a game they think is their game. Sorry to say it some people can just ball better than others. Skin color shouldn’t come into play when she has proven she is a true basketball player. If they aren’t to her level then maybe they should work on their craft as hard as she does and stop complaining so much.
I totally support CC. She is a beautiful talented humble woman who just wants to play ball. It's a real shame people of other races can't get over themselves and support this young lady.
Oh my God she literally changed the game!!! Good for her!! Most people don’t even o is who sone other WNBA players are until she came on board so thank you CC.
She is the all time leading scorer in both the men’s/women’s NCAA basketball. People are so clueless to race bait when she is the best player on the court any given night.
I’m an event bartender at Gainbridge where Pacers and Fever play. Since CC was drafted the noise and energy level has, well it’s insane compared to Pacer’s games where it’s so quiet you could hold a zoom meeting at any time.
Clarke is doing awesome job. I hope she doesn’t let all this nonsense get her off her game. It’s simple jealousy. Praying for her. She seems very sweet and her fans clearly love her.
People of all types like Caitlin Clark because she is a great role model for little kids and anyone else who enjoys watching the fruits of her exceptional talent, pose, hard work, and love for her sport. Attn WNBA : Being unlikeable, pedestrian, and entitled are definitely not ways to make people fork over money to see you or buy your merch.
She's not like the other wnba players, she's just a girl who loves playing a game and pretty good at it. Her difference is what is attracting all the attention. She's not black and not gay. So to a lot of sports fans, she's a breath of fresh air 😊❤
