Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

[ISUTex]

The average Iowan won't care about the WNBA either...

I guarantee the average Iowan doesn't really give two ***** about women's basketball or Caitlin Clark. Do most Iowns know who she is? Sure, the local news shoves her down our throats. But does the average Iowan really give a ****? No. Don't get pissy, because you know it's true.

 

[That's a winner!]

Apologizes if this has been said.......

Can't stand her and never could stand her....

Do you ever see teams do much to SLOW her down?? Double team? Triple team....trap her......make her give up the dam ball.....Do they NOT think she is going to let it fly fi she has ANY space at all?? How about the help side when she is shooting RIGHT handed layups.....MY GOD! How about arm barring her everytime she comes through the lane or cuts....How about laying her ASS out when she comes in the lane.....Put some dam FEAR in her head......

I turn the channel every time I see her face....Can't stand her....Nasty, Nasty, B*****! and all about herself.....

You’ve watched ESPN for 10 hours? You really need to get a life.

It was the lead story on ESPN.com when I went to bed and was the lead story when I checked back in the morning.

Might be time to step away from the keyboard and possibly sports in general.

You tell me... why would CC run completely away from her teammates to celebrate on her own?

When I saw it happen, I thought Clark was celebrating with the fans. Not on her own and not away from her teammates. She was just enjoying the moment with the fans . . . and more importantly, giving them what they came to see. This criticism of her behavior after the game-winning shot is just silly. That is not something that I consider problematic at all.

P.S. And I'm the one who was yelling "Caitlyn" at New Hampshire's #4 in the men's game when he complained after every whistle and even threw a few chicken wings.

That’s your opinion. I respect it. I had a different interpretation which I thought seemed to fit her on court behavior as well

Joensy- that you?

 

[frackincygy]

Yeah, you said "running away to celebrate on your own shows your true character." That's exactly what Purdy did there.

I think you should consider changing your name to Gumby because that is one helluva stretch.

Guess that's why the Hoks are undefeated in mental gymnastics.

 

[NWICY]

It's part of the game and has been for as long as star players have existed in basketball. Selling fouls when you feel contact is taught in high-level basketball now. You may as well get used to it.

What's funny to me is anyone on a non-biased, national scale doesn't seem to have an issue with the way she plays. I don't see some sentiment from non-Iowa State fans that her complaining is over the top or that she's a "bad role model". I gauruntee if she played for Notre Dame or something you'd have no issue with it.

Once you are out of the state of Iowa no one cares.

 

[frackincygy]

This guy by all accounts is an exceptional human and would often celebrate touchdowns like this

View attachment 121604

I mean I watched enough of Breece Hall to know the reason he's alone here is because everyone else is still trying to run down the field to catch him.

 

[NWICY]

Has Keith Murphy called his doctor yet?

No but his wife is walking bowlegged after wearing the CC jersey to bed that night.

 

[NWICY]

We're like three pages away from her setting kittens on fire and pushing old ladies out of the way...

Was this a reference to the Seinfeld episode where George sets the kitchen on fire? Autocorrect get you?

On my first reading I pictured you actually throwing chicken wings at the guy and I thought, “Don’t waste your wings like that!” Then I realized what you meant, lol.

Some sort of line has been crossed

The average Iowan? Do you think the average Iowan cares any more about the incredible season Haliburton is having in the NBA? Or Purdy potentially being the NFL MVP? Keegan Murray dropping 47 a couple weeks ago? Or Kittle having an All-Pro type season and starting the pro bowl? Cmon, she as much on the average Iowan's radar as any one of these guys

She is way bigger than those players in Iowa. She has crossed over from sports to pop when it comes to Iowa.

Ha! It did but I might like this better....
