I did not even notice I said that. They are up there with the Knicks now. I don't know how it happened but it did. The interesting thing is the league itself has been trying to make be hate it but it can't kill my love for Caitlin and the Fever. I can't wait to see her play with a good coach and a talented team.

You good right? Any Caitlin Tatoos? "We" not planning on moving to Indy and getting season tickets? No long written manifesto about your undying love for her or that your secretly engaged to marry? You know like its a big secret only you know?
No restraining order needed?

Looks like the Unrivaled league is a total ratings disaster. The stands are pretty empty as well. You have to wonder if it would be different if the ladies hadn’t alienated Caitlin Clark.

I am glad she declined. The other players thought the growth was because of them to. Now we have even more proof that its because of Caitlin. That place is also an injury magnet. Seems like half the league got injured during its short run. The Fever now have a team that can make it to the finals. We don't worry about 2nd rate leagues. We got bigger fish to fry. I sadly been more pumped about the potential of the Fever than the Knicks.

Uh-Oh: WNBA Players Demand To Be Paid What They're Worth And Now They Owe The NBA $400 Million

U.S. — Collective bargaining agreements for the WNBA took an unexpected turn as players demanded to be paid what they are actually worth and now owe the NBA $400 million.

Owners were shocked and delighted by the players' demand, immediately accepting and handing over a sheet showing the players' actual worth to be negative four hundred million dollars.

"We may have made a mistake here," said WNBA player Angel Reese. "Can we go back to having a bunch of the guys' money? It turns out I really like not getting paid what I'm worth and taking free money from a man. Please?"

According to sources, the owners responded that, as always, there are no take-backs. "I am so, so happy to finally be able to pay these players what they are really worth," said team owner John Pavlovitz. "Now, every month I can just hand over their checks to one of the NBA players who spent the last twenty years paying their salaries. After all the whining I've put up with about having to fly coach and sleep in a Holiday Inn, I am thrilled for my players to get to make what they have actually earned. Better gas up those Subarus, ladies!"

At publishing time, the owners had graciously offered an alternative option where player salaries could all go to the one person who gets people to watch the WNBA, Caitlin Clark.

That is funny. You are worth negative 400mil. One thing I have learned since becoming a Caitlin and then Fever fan is the old WNBA fans and media are the worst. They got used being able to get away with how they did things because no one cared. Those days are over.

Look at a tweet from one of them today.

I had her blocked for months because if I remember correctly she was one of the people who likes to hate on Caitlin and then gaslight you when you call her out on it.

Here is what one of the actual reporters in the WNBA space actually said on the subject. Annie has been one of the best reporters since I began paying attention. The fans attack her everyday because she don't only post positive stuff about the Chicago Sky. So they think she is trying to tear down the team.

Hope all that read the above article understand it comes from "The Babylon Bee", as sort of right/conservative satire site. This one was actually pretty good.

one has to say Clark seems be making good bank on endorsements. Angel Reese also has some out there and perhaps she too should be drawing the ire of some given she is not that great a player! She is good, but here social media efforts in fashion and influence has really raised her exposure. She had a great college career no doubt but very much gained exposure from her "controversy" with Clark. More rivalry than anything. That went a long way to divide them as "White girl vs urban black girl". She gained a lot of exposure and winning really matters!!!


Glad to see Clean enjoying his fandom!

I am about to post some WNBA drama stuff that I would not normally do but the purpose is to show how many bad people exists in this space. The one I will focus on is the MVP A'ja Wilson. These are some of the reasons why I can't stand A'ja.

She spent all last season making hell for Caitlin because of random social media accounts and trying to link Caitlin to racisim. Remember A'ja also started the "white privalege" stuff that Caitlin had to address in her times article after winning athlete of the year.

All of this while A'ja best friend who is a past child abuser has been racist toward Caitlin. Been a terrible person to a bunch of other WNBA players She knows all of this been happening and she does not care. The WNBA "media" has said nothing about it but wants Caitlin to address every random online troll.

We went over the White Privalege stuff before that should still be in this thread. Now we are going to focus on who her friend is while she was pushing for Caitlin to adress random trolls on the internet. Michael McManus is his name and he goes by D'eloris as a nickname. All year he been racist to Caitlin and plain nasty to most WNBA players. He has a past of hitting children. Mind you this is A'jas best friend. She has not been asked about this one time in all of these years.

This is another player talking about him after he was harassing her constantly. Mind you she took awhile to block him because of his connection to A'ja but eventually got tired of seeiing his hate. Notice how she said those who know him need to adress him but don't have the balls to say A'jas name.

I don't watch Jason Whitlock but he did a segment on this guy and I saw it shares on twitter.

All season he been making space saying vile stuff about players. Any black people who defend Caitlin is instantly a coon. By the way there were some credentialed media WNBA media members in this spaced where he was racist and nasty. Remember that tweet I posted about the media member like 3 days about you can see her also in this twitter spaces.

Here is some proof that he is A'jas best friend while being racist and vile.


Here is A'ja reposting his IG just today.

Caitlin fans been calling her out on her hypocrisy all day and this was her answer.

Twitter cuts out her reply unless you click the tweet so I will quote it here to save you time.


A'ja is a trash human and I will never be a fan or support her. She also privated her twitter because people were digging up old racist jokes reposted.

Here is one she reposted joking about Brittney Griner being a man.

Sorry for the long post but the WNBA ecosystem is filled with terrible people, players and media members like this. It's easy to see why it's failed for so long until Caitlin got here. It's also why they hate the new Caitlin fans. They are used to being this bad and no one calling them out on it because no one cared about the WNBA.

Whao, thanks for that. Interesting

Looks like Paige Bueckers already has Nike in her pocket. The league is going to just love another clean cut white phenom coming into the league with all the sponsors already in her pocketbook. I hope Dallas can put a decent team around her

She is good on that front. She is from UCONN. They are like a cult and for decades had almost a monopoly on the top players. So she has connections to the elite of the WNBA already. Plus she already did the pandering white players has to do to black players ahead of time with that ESPY speech. It's almost a ritual at this point.

Clean @ 4/1/2025 1:13 PM

From the first round ESPN been posting how awesome the rating for WCBB March Madness was this year but they always compare it to 2023. So people was wondering why. These numbers show you exactly why. ESPN been trying to prop up Juju and Paige to take some of Caitlins shine but they are just not draws in comparison to her and never has been.
Clean @ 4/2/2025 11:06 AM

Someone did a graphic of what the elite 8 would be vs 2024.

Klays father is apparently a huge Caitlin fan.

It’s a new season. The Liberty won the chip powered by another white superstar. Cc’s team will be much more competitive with an improved team and new coach. Bueckers is next woman up but that Dallas team needs an overhall. TV money is going up and there will be a new cba next year if they don’t strike. The W is really on the precipice of appealing to a larger straight white audience unless they blow it up on the alter of lgbq

Rebecca Lobo and Ryan Ruocco are the best basketball commentator team ESPN has and it’s not even close for anyone else
Clean @ 4/5/2025 6:01 PM
I have no idea. I watch all sports on mute. I know both of them don't have a jealous bone in their body. Lobo always keeps it real no matter what I that is mostly why I am a fan of her on TV.

It did represent a 75% increase in viewership from 2022, the last time Caitlin Clark didn’t appear in the final. – via RealGM
