1 HOUR AGO: Caitlin Clark Goes NUTS After WNBA DENIES TECHNICAL FOULS & DEMANDS WNBA Referee FIRED

[@galufatioo]

Go overseas and make those leagues rise up to surpass the wnba, and let the wnba sink back to it's stagnant status.

[@russromito4903]

Absolutely ! Screw the WNBA !

[@robertgowen9940]

If Clark gets injured and cannot play for an extended period because officials let defenses keep fouling her with no calls, The WNBA will suffer attendance and TV viewer wise. Surely they realize that she is carrying the league right now.

Nope to stupid

[@noregerts5247]

The refs are so bias against her. Watch her games and tell me that not happening. What a joke

[@kyliedadify]

Well they are getting it from above them.

[@billiarduniversity5842]

We may need to ban or boycott this league a few games just to let them know that fairness or lack there of we not be tolerated by the fans. Just a thought.

[@NellBelle]

At this point we should all agree that the refs are betting on the games.

[@worldclassicguitarists]

It's much simpler than that. They are employees following the directives of their employers. The W is married to the Wokealpharacist mob. Refs are minions, nothing more.

[@Fairplay-z8l]

If these Ref’s were in charge of making calls in WWII we would be speaking a German right now!

[@josephwhisnant9511]

Several of the refs act like rebate highschool officials from Tijuana Mexico. Cennedy does blatantly fouls with arm hacks and blind sides and CC slaps a backboard pad and gets a technical. In what universe does that make sense.

[@devonlindsay3879]

They need to purge the wnba refs - they are constantly ignoring fouls and violence against her and giving her fouls over nothing. Go somewhere else for refs. The whole season the refs have gone after her. I saw one of them high-five a sky player after the ref gave Caitlin a foul.

[@daleantolik3956]

Could it be that Caitlin is disrupting Gambling, or team standings have already been predetermined?

[@thomaslaxton8178]

WNBA needs to be taken to COURT.

[@HungryH1951]

Players (including CC) assaulted and battered by Chennedy Carter need to sue her, as well as the the refs and the league for allowing this to happen and continue to go on. To get these people's attention you need to sue. Carter should be expelled from the league if not sitting in a jail cell for assault and battery.

[@holtcarlton9064]

This is basketball, not trumpland. You don't sue to get your way. She flops. She should have been ejected. If anyone else swings at someone's face, it is an automatic ejection! The opposing team job is to make it hard for her to shoot. Throw her off her game. They run several plays designed to free her up . But she misses open shoots! Her teammates have picked up the scoring opportunity when she has played flat. The refs are just calling it fairly. The honeymoon is over

[@tonyedwards3938]

The court of public opinion.

[@robertstanford1778]

The Lynx has 20 free throws the Fever had 8. That is ridiculous.

[@jamesstedronsky4139]

Promising talents? Surely you mean one of the league's greatest present talents.

[@megladane]

The W is more focused on the narrative than it is on the game, The narrative comes first and foremost, Players fans and the promotion of the game be damned.

[@sojecabajug4627]

Worst officiating ever. The ref just in front of CC just swallowed the whistle. No call...

[@doverh3]

The FBI and the SS work part time as officials in the WNBA.

[@mark8697]

I never watched WNBA till now. I watch many games and every game has poor at best officiating against both teams no matter who is playing. These officials think people are coming to the game or watching on TV for them. They believe they are the stars. 40% of coaches challenges are overturned so that is proof refs mess up often.

[@William-cx7or]

You have to leave room for the shooter to land. Even if there isn’t contact It’s A Foul. Refs Continue to be horrible.

[@robertstanford1778]

That was no travel in anyway shape or form. McBride was holding her and initiated the contact. The refereeing in the W is so bad that it can only be rightfully cinsidered corrupt at this point.

Way to ruin your own league. If men acted like this, nba wouldn't exist. Sad and pathetic.

Hoping Clark leaves the WNBA and let the league go back to traveling in a school bus to play in High School gyms.

Seriously the worst ref calls I’ve ever seen. Are they blind or just stupid!

Other than the first one the other calls were correct

[@chuckstranahan5600]

Third option: They've been paid off. Question is, by whom? Follow the money to the decision-makers with money on the line long-term who want the NBA season to go according to script. Clark is good enough to be a disrupter, and to cost the decision-makers money

[@steverine6004]

The WNBA does not deserve a talent like Catlin Clark. So far they are not paying attention.

[@galufatioo]

CC really needs to leave the wnba, because the officials, the old wounded heart veterans of wnba, the coaches and the commising, and I can't call her the commissioner if she is missing in action from solving problems in the league I have a feeling even if somebody gets hurt she will still be missing and do nothing to protect the new superstar that are hated for just being superstar and representing the wnba with honor. Just watch the old and the new plus the sick get interview by the media. You can actually see a great big difference

[@justsayinfornow5274]

Comissing!! Get rid of her!!

[@holtcarlton9064]

😂Are you high? This isn't a real fans take. It the view of an self individual who needs to grow up. She had a bad game. On her best day she mediocre. Her team mates have carried her. Get off her tit's and allow her the space to become a better player. You and the rest of the new CC only fans are ruining the game.

[@davidaquiningoc992]

How crazy would it be for her to quit and go to Europe. I'd bet the WNBA would get their shit together then. And ater 4 years play for that country in the next Olympics. That would be so funny, especially if she took a few with her.

The best way for this heroine, (CLARCK) to put a stop to this, is to play in Europe and never step foot in a garbage/wnba arena again. The envy about this excellent athlete is immense.

Why is the WNBA allowing the opposing teams to pay off the referees. Black mail within the league is what I see.

[@abelortiz4852]

If the NBA, where salaries came, didn't act soon, another better, more professional league could appear! Caitlin Clark's value is more than the rest of the WNBA in terms of money and expectations.

Caitlyn should quit playing for a year so we can watch the WNBA starve.

[@stevenvox6549]

The UCONN base of the WNBA has decided to attack Clark with their mafia don Coach Geno and his former players . Taurasi and Swoops - and they have even suggested Clark can be beaten up, because she's not a "grown woman" and not tough enough.

I think the officials need to be investigated by the FBI concerning their betting on fever games through other people. I think it runs deep. Next letter not comment is to the WNBA league head then the FBI. Refereeing professionally we are not watching we are seeing refs with a vested interest in the outcome of fever games. It’s so clear you have to be blind as the refereeing to not see it.

The Refs, the WNBA, and all the So-called legends, are extremely biased and racist against Caitlin. Even so....

[@daletaliaferro6386]

It is clearly apparent to any sports fan that the refs don't know where to draw the line in offensive charging! Many of the bigger women simply put their shoulder down and drive through the opponents. If a foul is called, it is called on the defensive player rather than on the "bull in a china shop." I mean really! Either retrain or fire all the refs and start over. This is destroying the women's game.

[@HoofHearted801]

If the WNBA expect to be taken seriously for the professional league they claim to be, they need to start acting like it as they are now doing more harm to themselves than the good being inspired to bring the game to a whole new level by the exception skills and influence of individual players. Unless coaching and officiating show that they are not interested in continuing to allow good athletes to experience success by acting more like a jealous cow than the skilled player they think they are, the league will default to protecting the health of their star player. The comparable hockey player who brought fresh attention to the way he set new NHL records was 160 lbs. in a sport where average was 205 lb.and lack lustre performance was excused as being a 'contact sport'. Consequently, a protector was on the ice at the same time whose job it was to demonstrate to opponents that it was not acceptable to unnecessarily touch their star player by inflicting pain for doing so. People got seriously hurt and IMO it distracted from the sport and the development of skills to move the sport upward and support went down. At its worst, it was not as bad as what is going on in the WNBA. Better clean it up WNBA as all your discriminations are showing.

[@greencm7142]

My wife and I are huge CC and Fever fans. But, not everything is a conspiracy folks. Fever fans weren't bitching about the refs when we beat them in the first meeting.
