WNBA Rating CRASH & BURN After Caitlin Clark Elimination | THIS IS BAD!!

No Caitlin Clark - Not interested in the WNBA. Too many bad calls against CC

[@brennancondon3357]

Dude your acting like they should just let her win because she’s popular. If she can’t win she can’t win, you don’t rig games to push her to the next level because she sells seats. Have you watched the other games, the refs are making just as many bad calls.

[@colberthunter12]

Good, go away and stay away, they have their contract they don't need you watching, it would really be excellent if you people did what Clark is doing right now, going on about her life not thinking about basketball, she is on vacation so you people can stop fighting for her honor, give it a rest, she is not playing and what do her toxic fans do? Belittle the league, disrespect and with a air of haughtiness not seen since the Victorian times.

Totally agree. If she had lost reasonably fairly or fairly officiated anyway, I think there would have been a continuing viewership. I'm not about drama except for the drama of the moment, does the shot drop? Does it get off before the buzzer? How is adversity met? I don't want rivalries that results in blatant cheating and blind refs. If I was, I'd watch pro wrestling. Part of me hopes she retires. The abuse, if it doesn't permanently injure her, will still seep into her soul and destroy her from the inside out, and that I will not watch.

[@pushin1love]

She's going through what Bill Russell went through. The league either changes to support her or it collapses. She's paving a way for other women like her to enter and change the entire league. The biggest problem is her team doesn't have her back. They need to back her up and recognize they're a team, and if she brings the hype and boosts the wins/stats they need to support her in it because it only makes them look better too.

[@thekhan517]

The league, the refs and other player's treated her horribly. Even some of the announcers made unfair comments. Jealousy, racism, who knows?

Well, the gays and the blacks announced their discord and the refs followed suit. If she had not been brutalized by this group, she would have performed at an even higher level. The bottom line is that she was faster and better than the competition and the only way to stop her was to beat on her. That's not to say there are not some great players in the league there are. They should have gotten to work and performed at a higher level. The only way to get rid of this stigma now is to clean house on the bad refs and take disciplinary action against unruly players. Suspend them for a year and give them time to think about it. Anyone who objects should go as well. CC will take care of her own business and perform at an even higher level. Her performance will improve the performance of other players. That has absolutely been proven this year. She makes other players better.

So all it sounds like is these people want to promote everybody else besides Caitlin.... Nobody put no fckin eggs in one basket.... Caitlin was pretty much the only egg because of her playing... So by promoting lesser players, it's the same as giving out trophies to ALL the kids... Not only to the very top notch players, but to ALL the kids just for showing the fck up... I NEVER agreed with that BS mindset.... When I was growing up (and face it, the majority pf this league IS NOT), there was no participation prize BS.. You had your winners and you had your losers... and I was usually in the losers lets not BS anybody here... But seeing those guys win and celebrate made most of the rest of us work that much harder to get up there on top... That type of incentive carried through many aspects of my life because I was never GIVEN anything.... The things I had were ALL EARNED... and I very much feel good about that... There are very few of those people playing in the wnba whose game cannot improve with a little work and advice... Hell, Caitlin knows HER game can improve, and she WANTS that.... If those other people in the wnba are true athletes (and a few are NOT), their main goals would be to step up THEIR games and improve instead of trying to hurt an athlete that is nothing but gold for the league... and the racism and jealousy is off the fcking charts with many of them... Instead of hating on her, go back and watch her moves, her stances, watch her techniques on her shots, try to apply things to your own game... maybe just ever so slightly adjusting on something might just make a huge difference. But the hating and trying to hurt her? Very, very poor sportsmanship and only enforces the hoodrat thug BS that doesn't help ANYbody... I'd bet BIG money the reffing will tighten up next season that thugball crap is gonna cost some serious jack and time off the court, because that 3rd world shyt has no place in quality sports.
