But in Jemelle's world, they're spending endless hours obsessing over this. 'course the real racism is coming from the other side mostly those sock puppeting Lesbians (who tend to speak for all blacks) who think the WNBA is reserved for them and this is a classic case of just accusing the other side of the same. eg now CC's stat padding too.

Let’s see Riley participate in a mostly black sport and become friends with them and hear about how they’ve been treated their entire life and then see how she feels? She is/was in a sport with almost exclusively white people and it wasn’t really even a team sport. You can’t remain 100% neutral in the WNBA and be as popular as her. She tried though but the reporters won’t leave her alone.

Caitlin Clark Wins 2024 AP Female Athlete of the Year

[@GreatlinClarkFan-c5h]

Should've been MVP. Aja's team plummeted out of first lace and failed to make it to the finals this year. CC took the worst team in the league into the playoffs for the first time in almost a decade, was responsible for 48% of her teams points in every game and brought $31 million of investment into her team (not to mention the $2 billion into the league). CC was undeniably the most "valuable" player in the WNBA to her team and to the league. "But Aja's stats!" Yeah, CC tied her in how many 1st places they took in stats (2 & 2) and CC beat her in combined scoring, unassisted points and 3-pointers (in fact CC lead the entire league in assists & 3-pointers falling just 6 shy of breaking the 3-point record in her ROOKIE year). Oh, and she crushed 62 WNBA records; more in her rookie year than Aja broke in her entire half decade long career.

[@liquidocelot6294]

@@GreatlinClarkFan-c5h OK man I will never get the amount of Caitlin Clark gazer out here. Did she have an OK season yes A good season but MVP hell no she did not have no damn MVP season Aja Wilson was completely dominant this season and she beat Kaitlyn Clark’s team four times. because when it comes to skill level, Aja, Wilson is on a completely different atmosphere than Kaitlyn Clark. She’s way more dominant. She is a much better offensive player. She’s a much better defender. Kaitlyn doesn’t even have a fraction of the skills that she has sorry MVP she’s got a long way to go. Aja Wilson is the best women’s basketball player on the planet.

[@GreatlinClarkFan-c5h]

@@bigsteve1966 Absolutely agree brother. I just don't like the "she can't win it all" mentality of the league. In my humble opinion, but objectively speaking here, it's undeniable that she moved the needle more for her team and for the league in general. I'm not saying that she was the best player this year, I'm just saying that she was unequivocally the most "valuable" player by any metric. She was robbed (just like she was snubbed from the Olympic team). Aja is a thing of beauty to watch when she shoots, but she wasn't the most "valuable" player in the league this season. Personally, again, in "my" opinion, they just threw her a bone to appease her like Nike did when they upped her deal with them after CC's deal got re-upped in October. BUT... That's okay. We all know what Caitlin does when they hurt her feelings...she goes gorilla on them. 😂 She's going to have to start breaking her own records next season because she's running out of WNBA records to break (62 in her rookie year alone). She should have the 3-point record that Sabrina set last year (she was just 6 shy of breaking it this season). MVP next year? If she makes it to the finals at least and she plays at this pace, she should have it. But she's like Jackie Robinson & Hank Aaron & Roberto Clemente & Jesse Owens; She's going to have to be 3X better than the rest of the league just to get the same recognition. If she gets the help she needs on the team (more defense that'll protect her so she can rain shots all game long along with Kelsey), I can't see The Fever "not" making it to the finals at the very least. What they do when they get there is up to them, but they are undeniably a Top 4 team in my book. The Sun cheat (way too many fouls), the Mystics & Lynx are the two toughest teams out there that are legit in my opinion and the Liberty & Aces are without a double #1 & #2 on the food chain. Happy Holidays chief. 👍🏽

[@GreatlinClarkFan-c5h]

@@liquidocelot6294 Okay season? Since when was breaking 62 WNBA records and inventing 2 new records and taking the worst team in the league into the playoffs for the first time in a decade just okay? Oh, I get it...since Caitlin did it. And how is Aja, who lost the 1st place position for her team and was stagnant all year long more "valuable" to her team? Aja was on a stacked team full of champions and Olympians. How do you "not" make it past the semi-finals being a 2 time defending championship team? 😂 Aja (this season) was "valuable" only to herself. She didn't move the needle for her team, unless you consider moving it "down" moving the needle. She set her own personal record(s), but she didn't get the team into the finals. That's an L for them. And you're talking team wins/losses to individual players comparison? LOL What's the matter? You can't compare individual to individual? In EVERY game that the Fever lost to the Aces, guess who put the most points on the board? CAITLIN CLARK! Caitlin CRUSHED Aja on the boards! 😂 Aja's "team" might've dominated Caitlin's team, but Aja herself didn't dominate Caitlin. Aja lead the WNBA in points (1K) and in rebounding. Caitlin lead the WNBA in combined points (1.4K), unassisted points, assists and 3-pointers (just 6 shy of setting a new record. How many records did Aja break this year, heck, how many records did Aja break in her whole half decade career? CC broke 62 records in her FIRST year in the WNBA. If Aja is so much better than Caitlin, why didn't SHE break all those records CC broke? It's not like she didn't have 6 years to do it, right? Let me know when you find out; I'll wait. By the way, the fact that you are even having to defend Aja against a rookie is a bad look bro! LOL Caitlin is only 22 years old. She shouldn't even be in the same conversation. That alone speaks volume that Aja isn't being compared to anybody else in the league. Marinate on that for a minute. CC put up MORE points than Aja did for her team in combined scoring which is the metric that determines what contribution a player made to their team. THAT is a measure of "value" that the WNBA defines. That alone made her more valuable. Value to the league? That's another topic, but in the half a decade that Aja's been the face of the league, they've bled $50 MILLION dollars a year. CC comes along and the WNBA gets a $2 BILLION dollar infusion and lost $10 million dollars "less" this season. Bro, I can do this ALLLLL day. Would you like to compare Caitlin's stats to Aja's stats? Because I would LOVE that, right here in front of everybody. Let me know, I have them all ready to post. We here.

I attended an Indiana Fever game with a friend (I used to live in Indiana and had promised her I’d return to catch a game). While there, I noticed the loudest cheers were, as expected, for Caitlin Clark. Interestingly, the second loudest were for Lexie Hull. What stood out to me was that Hull was, in my opinion, the fourth-best player on the court-a solid wing player but not on the same level as Kelsey Mitchell or Aliyah Boston, who were the second and third best (in any order). It made me wonder if fans found Hull more relatable because she’s white, perhaps seeing themselves in her, especially alongside Clark, even though Hull wasn’t the second-best player in the game.

Santa is not white. Santa Claus is based on a Turkish sain't. Wikipedia says: Nicholas was known for his generous gifts to the poor, in particular presenting the three impoverished daughters of a pious Christian with dowries so that they would not have to become prostitutes.[5] He was very religious from an early age and devoted his life entirely to Christianity. In continental Europe (more precisely the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, the Czech Republic and Germany), he is usually portrayed as a bearded bishop in canonical robes.

[@Adecigargod]

Megan Kelly head exploded😂😂😂😂

[@Five0h4rFinest]

Welp! Thank God we ain't gotta hear from these fake Caitlin Clark fans no more.

[@learning_the_hard_way]

I think the biggest reason people are upset is because she was bullied on the court and in the media. So when she said being white has its privilege, it upset people who feel that she gave in to the bullies and also that it took away from what she has accomplished. I personally think she was targeted because of jealousy.

[@GreaterThanWealth]

The question is why was she bullied, on the court in the media and sue bird and DT wasn’t? Hmmmm…. Her racist fans that called Angel Reese the N-word! That’s why! Can you blame them now?

[@NYourWill]

Good video. I would love to see a video on Sheryl Swoopes response to CC from your viewpoint.

[@PaulKapches]

Why can’t an athlete just be an athlete? Why can’t an actor just be an actor? Why do they have to get involved in politics?

[@Survivor-dw7we]

Because they're taxpaying US citizens ? Because they realize their friends and family are affected by the machinations of politicians ? Because they care about the fans who support them ?

[@isislaz]

Paige Bueckers was going to get the same attn until her Espy's speech. She didn't waste any time with the subject.

“ they are big mad “ 😂 yep. Riley Gaines 15 been up for months , but like a cicada she shows up!

Narrative, narrative, narrative.

[@calif1985]

Jemele and her fellow CC haters are out in force today!

[@tinaramsey2654]

Well done Caitlin!! I appreciate what she said.🙌🏻 She wasnt apologizing sge qas acknowledging there's a difference smh

[@jamesgoforth1606]

Clark put up the best numbers in college, and it wasn't even close. Smashed records, earned every award, put up 30- and 40-point triple doubles, a "generational player" -- THAT would make anyone famous and marketable, regardless of color. Now legions of fans followed CC to that league, and people finally know the players' names, and all anyone sees them doing is attacking the player who finally got them some attention. She's the most hated player in the league, barely made it out of the first season with both her eyes, she'll be lucky if she doesn't come out of there with PTSD -- but it's her fans who are labeled as the "racists."

[@mikey.6041]

Meh, you are off here. You’re probably in that M. Kelly camp., trying to gaslight us about the situation.

[@jamesgoforth1606]

@@mikey.6041 Not really following what you are saying. I don't agree with Kelly's take on the whole thing.

[@MrNewktrane]

​@@mikey.6041👍💯👏This Part!! All day long!!

[@wisdomenake242]

She was targeted, Sheila Johnson confirmed it.

[@deseanlarmond8548]

Loved this

[@kgbusa3415]

Wrong, CC did the gesture to her own assistant coach. There are so many reasons holding the league back and it is a complete marketing nightmare. Parents wanted little to do with having their children around it until CC showed up. Not sure they will continue.

[@aliciaknott8109]

This was well put together.

[@cmh833]

Nope... she shouldn't have brought race into it, she should just ball ... because that's why she's got such a huge fan base

[@NolaDrake-d7j]

But she gets asked about it constantly!! It's like it's her job to dismiss her own greatness!! Who else do they constantly badger and belittle for not bringing up her childhood heroes? So she has, numerous times. But it's never enough for certain pundits and talking heads. I agree, she just wants to play basketball, but with her popularity, she's damned if she does, and damned if she don't! She's an amazing person, at 22, to handle all the BS from all sides!! Love from an Iowa Granny!🔥🏀🔥🏀

[@LABeautifulDesigns]

I wish I could like this 100 times

[@ctbt1832]

I don’t think clark should’ve received it. Angel Reese work her way up to win that award and she should’ve won it. It was the media and those WYT folks that kept clark in the spotlight after she lost two college championships back to back. They kept her in the spotlight because they could not phantom the fact that another young, beautiful black lady was starting to uplift the program. Take out the media and the way the WNBA and those people was pushing clark and just let her be an ordinary person. We would not be talking about her and this video would not be about her.

[@whiskeyricard]

How would you know? Unless this is the racists on social media.

[@timbrown9796]

But this lady b hating on her too, but i digress lol

[@Simply_Taajo]

Has anyone noticed CC has gotten the hint and stepped back from talking about white privilege? Me too.

[@SugarRay2]

Nothing to do with white privilege. It’s all hard work from her and Clark was wrong to say that.
