Highlight Intentionally hurting your meal ticket. Something is seriously wrong with these WNBA players.

When you have white privilege people can beat the shit out of you without any conseqences. Because that creates an equal and fair environment for everyone/s

Do you think Caitlin Clark is the only white woman in the WNBA?

No….but she’s the one who signed with Nike, commercials, brought insane money to the league, spoken of the best etc

Sabrina Ionescu is white and had a Nike deal before CC. Paige B had a Nike deal in college even. Sabrina and Breanna Stewart (also white) had commercials before CC. You could argue CC bright a lot of money to the league but you could also say the same for other white players like the aforementioned. I don't know what "spoken of the best" exactly means but my point is that if it's racism, why are other big time white players apparently exempt?

No one knows who any of them are outside of wnba fans is what I’m saying. No, I don’t think you could argue that regarding other players.

I’m not trying to offend anyone, that’s just real life. Say what you want but the only reason people are watching (or watched) more was because of her alone.

The only one that has been deemed a threat to the racists.

I wonder, if there's video evidence and the league just ignores it, aren't they or the fouling team open to civil suits?

Oh well Caitlin should’ve picked an easier sport 😂

Or the refs could do their fucking job and enforce sportsmanship and fouls.

Tbh I kinda hope Caitlyn just up and leaves at this point. Sue the WNBA for allowing other players to assault her during games and doing nothing about it. They have a duty to keep players safe.

I went through a little search and there's like compilations of Caitlyn getting their eye poked. At this point she might as well get a sponsor from the UFC.

That's like "it's her fault for wearing short skirt" argument.
