"Too often, the Black players who built women’s hoops — and who now dominate the professional level, where the WNBA is 70 percent Black — haven’t been acknowledged. Occasionally, their existence has been wiped from the record books completely, like with former Kansas standout Lynette Woodard's Division-I scoring record not being recognized by the NCAA."
"‘I don’t think it’s anyone’s fault or been anyone’s intention,’ Southern Cal coach Lindsay Gottlieb told USA TODAY Sports. But there haven’t been enough commercial endorsements of Black female superstars in our society, period.’’"
If only one commercial would include Simone Biles, Serena Williams, or Venus Williams.
"As women's basketball grows in popularity, white players get the most attention."
Yeah, Brittney Griner is being ignored because she is black, not because she is an American hating POS. Sure.
Cheryl Miller was very well-known and popular, along with Lisa Leslie. Now you have ghetto fab players like Angel Reese having crowns placed on their heads, getting into fights, and throwing temper tantrums when things don’t go their way.
All that and the best women’s players are smaller than most men’s point guards.
Was at LaGuardia a couple years ago waiting for a flight. A WNBA team was waiting as well for the same plane. They were butch as hell. Every one of them. Hardly a line up of commercially viable representatives unless they are pitching a Mandingo impaler.
True. I've never watched a WNBA game and the only women's college games I've watched were Duck appearances in the NCAA tourney. I'd see Clark on ESPN SportsCenter but haven't watched a minute of any of her games.
I still don’t understand why we’re supposed to celebrate Caitlin Clark so much. Yes she’s the all time leading scorer. There are plenty of people who are the best at sports no one cares and they get like one NBC personal interest story during the Olympics, then we forget about them. Caitlin Clark should be dunking from the 3 point line based on her level of hype.
Well, my son who is 6'3" could dunk as a sophomore in high school along with probably a million other men in the US. Any woman who dunks in the WNBA gets 20 seconds of fame on SportsCenter. The whole MSM, our government and our public education system is feminized. Maravich set the men's NCAA scoring record in three years and with no shot clock and no 3 point line. Clark couldn't make a D1 men's basketball team and took 4 years to "break" Maravich's men's scoring record. If any MSM male sports reporter pointed this out on they would be at least suspended and probably fired.
The black female players and announcers treat her horribly. Sheryl Swoopes even lied about Clark after she broke the record. Reminds me of when South Carolina coach Dawn Staley refused to play BYU after some black player on another team made up being called a racial slur.

And the fact that Griner is a dude.
There was no ncaa for women when Woodard played
And Nancy Lieberman wasn't black
Joyce Walker would like a word.
Not that fucking communist Kate Starbird

NOC
Also Angel Reese is hot AF
Bill Maher went on a big rant last night about Dems giving up identity politics. He’s 20 years too late.

Hot but a total cunt.
Are they gonna cancel Cameron Brink? She is protected to be a top 5 pick.
Not seeing hot. Has Pat Ewing’s nose. More attractive than most of the beasts playing WNCAA and WNBA, I suppose.
Most people don't care about both Clark and the black players.

Hey Stalin, I had a funny meme, but Vanilla or whatever it is, won't allow it.
in fairness, Clark isn’t hot at all and is a cunt too.

Same reason Tyler Swift was shown on the screen multiple times at Chefs games.
We will be told what's important.

Only thing I saw of Clark is her acting like Lebron.
