1. Dejonai Carrington should be suspended for her intentional eye gouge of Caitlin Clark. 2. Long nails (fake/real) should NOT be allowed in any contact sport (i.e. basketball, etc) 3. WNBA referees should be re-evaluated for competency, and investigated for corruption 4. WNBA Commissioner Cathy Englebert should be FIRED. She is obviously NOT doing her job protecting the players and promoting the league. Her silence is deafening!

@jammin_J643 күн бұрын
That's assuming Krauskopf came in for reasons of change that fans want. Did you see pope's last vid? Don't forget that this lady served like 18 years with The Fever once already. That means she's part of the machine too. She was consulted about the hiring of Sides and gave her blessing comparing her to a younger Dunn. Let that sink in. CC hasn't gone along with their agenda. So, was this lady brought to change the world around CC? OR, was she brought in to attempt to change CC to adapt to their world, and if not, I wouldn't be surprised if CC was traded for draft capital.

Djon Mustard Rotten Carrotcrotch Kruger. To me the best thing that can be done in the the WNBA is to get better refs and call flagrant fouls 80% of the time instead of 20% of the time which encourages more rough plays that create unnecessary injuries. But no the brain dead Comissioner and league office think more about expansion teams as if Caitlin playing 2 games a season at those new arenas will cover the bills. It sucks that Caitlin gets the most non calls fouls on her, and Aaliyah Boston leads the league in fouls when the refs call the most ticky tack fouls on her.

CC was intentionally hit by Carrington and she is targeted by others. But dude you might be going over the deep end in the conspiracy stuff. The players in the W are not that smart - the W management is afraid to deal with the fouls. But they are not trying to get rid of CC. And stop telling CC to leave the league - this is her dream, her family and boyfriend and all other relatives and friends live in the USA and CC does not want to spend long amounts of time out of the country. The Fever brought back a better president and she is going to build a team around CC that will become a dynasty in the WNBA.

And we know why noone watched the W. But when you have someone doing things no one else is doing, people start watching. It’s nice to have a break from politics. But it’s been brought into sports not too long ago. But back on point… These tricks you’re bringing to the light, are replications of the what the MSM has been doing in Politics. Double speak, Memory Holing, and redirection. It’s an evil spirit as you pointed out before. Marxist Socialist Media , MSM. I’m not saying, I’m just saying. Thanks for the light brother!

I believe tomorrow is the last time we will see Caitlin play, this season. The intimidation factor worked and CC will have another awful shooting night. Every time she goes up to shoot and a hand is near her face she will flinch. It's human nature and she'll think about the poke. The league is doing nothing to suspend Carrington and the Fever has no enforcers. Combined with a terrible coach that does not defend her. I hope the Fever makes the necessary roster changes. They need players that play defense, not just Lexi Hull. They also need two enforcers, in case one gets suspended. They will have to establish early in games that they are going to hurt opponents. Also that their will be a price to pay if any Fever players are hurt intentionally. Caitlin will have to use eye protection in the future, because the jealousy and envy will not just go away. She has the off season to adapt to the eyeware.
