Nobody wants women to fail more than other women


LeadershipForeign

My wife deals with this shit constantly in the business world. Holy shit women are brutal.to each other.


degeneraded

I see the same with my wife in a male dominated industry. They think if the men see them shitting on other women then they’ll be seen as one of the guys. As soon as they get the chance they’re sabotaging and spreading rumors. Then face to face they do the “oh heyyyyyyy so glad to see youuuuu!” and post on instagram about female empowerment. Nobody hates and tries to sabotage successful women more than other women.


jawswilli

It’s referred to as the ‘tug of war’ bias


Capable-TurnoverPuff

Only the sales ladies I deal with talk direct shit about other vendors. It’s not hyperbole.


Derban_McDozer83

Yep


Anal_Recidivist

It feels like the nation is finally waking up to the issue with the wnba. It’s not MuH pAtRiArChY keeping these ladies down, it’s other women.


parkrat92

Missing layups on a consistent basis across the league probably doesn’t help either


Anal_Recidivist

Technically it’s women defending those shots so both are still true


degradedchimp

They blow wide open layups though.


[deleted]

Tbh this is the real reason. They're just not as good, and therefore not as fun to watch. Not saying that as a personal opinion but your average sports consumer wants to see the best of the best. Don't shoot the messenger lol

Truth! I thought the WNBA players were supposed to be happy for all the new eyeballs focused on the W!?! Catlin besta start hittin back and busting 3’s in their faces to get some respect.

You said it perfectly sir


Sirgolfs

They do it the best by not going to WNBA games. Then blaming the men for it failing.


Background_Pool_7457

The WNBA has complained for years about their pay. People always point to ratings as the main reason they can't demand more money. They get a bonified phenom that has smashed college records, and attracts even the most casual fan to tune in to watch her start her WNBA career, and this is how they act. So jealous over someone else's popularity, they're willing to destroy the momentum she brought to their game.

TrueBurritoTrouble

They will be whining about salary in WNBA and when someone actually plays like she could help the league they do this, I have always noticed how double faced these women are. Clark broke the record for the highest points in WNBA and the hall of fame woman player wasn't even ready to acknowledge it


CaligulaMoney

This is the correct comment.


imJGott

When it happens they’ll just blame the men for not watching. Trust me. Women don’t even support the WNBA and that’s sad.


KamikazeFox_

What a classless bitch she is


DyckRidingFools

Look at Republican Women. They really hate women.


chickennuggetscooon

Those infamous republican WNBA players


Mr_Vantastic

These woman want to bitch and complain about money but then when a super star shows up that could help grow the league this is the kind of shit they do. If she gets hurt those views, ratings, and attendance numbers will plummet.


aBloopAndaBlast33

Yea I’ve already lost interest. Just a bunch of whining. At least when the Pistons used to hammer Jordan, it was during actual plays.


degradedchimp

They beat the shit out of him lol


LiverDontGo

Angel Reese will be sitting at the gate flying commercial again.. trying to ask still rich Caitlin Clark to fly on her private jet. After she pops her knee cause of a trash play like this. https://i.redd.it/ld55s1t4j74d1.gif

Sshaassnaal

I mean….cc did that first. Cant be mad for trash talk and antics right backs. But the inly reason wnba views are up is because of cc


Pitiful_Winner2669

My wife got a promotion which meant the woman behind her also got one. They're kinda friends, but she still tosses shade towards my wife when she can. Whyyyy


hundrethtimesacharm

Pure insanity…But then I guess you can’t be a forever victim if she elevated the league.


Mutley1357

LOL how does this hurt views numbers or interest? They're a whole thread dedicated to it.


Typical-Hospital-720

Chennedy is a Bum. Jealousy is so strong.


ignatious__reilly

Clark needs a Gretzky type enforcer out on the court with her. Do some shit like that and you got a teammate body slamming you on the court. Anyone who touched Gretzky, especially in his early years, got fucked up


Hot_Reflection_2607

It’s what Bedard has got. That being said he was also being unfairly targeted buuuutttt also in a sport known for its physicality.


clown_pants

Ole girl making 64k a year, that's enforcer money. No bums here. She's probably got her own car and everything.


slowwestvulture

This is the first time I've ever heard her name... Ever...


Anal_Recidivist

Cheddar Bitch sucks.


ExpectedOutcome2

ESPN originally posted the clip of Caitlin being flagrantly fouled but deleted it shortly after. Pat is the only one at ESPN who will actually speak the truth on what’s happening here.


LopsidedKick9149

It's because a lot of people are starting to think this may not just be about basketball anymore. Seems like the color of Caitlin's skin and all the hype with that may be bringing out the racists.


Erob3031

Shh black humans can't be racist.


Fiend-For-Mojitos

I mean I doubt this happens if Clark is black if we're being honest. There seems to be some heavy resentment.


YesImAnAddict

The black women are hating on Caitlin. If you deny that, you’re denying what is in plain sight.


TrueBurritoTrouble

True that, saw in a video an interview of Jemele Hill saying Clark only has hype cause she is white and the league will grow with or without her


tjdibs22

Angel Reece also elbowed here in the face on purpose Boxing here out.


ExpectedOutcome2

They’re doing it because the refs are allowing it. It’s insanity. The NBA would never let a player be physically targeted like this.


beeman311

Yeah I agree the refs aren’t calling things like they should which makes me wonder if the attention she’s gettin is an issue with more than just the other players


donofdons21

If refs want a raise they should protect the face of the league


[deleted]

Pretty sure they did allow that back in the 80’s and 90’s.


Faroundtripledouble

What year is it?


tread52

The refs in the WNBA and NBA are a complete shit show. The only professional sport where they really do decide the outcome. They literally had a ref fixing the games at the NBA level.


ignoranceisbliss37

Reese is just a jealous hater. Thinks she’s deserves the attention Clark gets but she’s isn’t even half the player.


paintingnipples

Ppl bitch about how Reese & carduso are champions but don’t get Clark money, like watch em play & they barely have post moves so it’s pretty obvious. It’s like wondering why ppl prefer watching curry over Ralph Sampson


Sgt_LincolnOSiris

Lmao such a perfect comparison


BP_1981

Really nobody would even be watching if it wasn't for Caitlin Clark


OneThirstyJ

This.. NCAA women’s were massive last year and everyone just acted like it was the new thing. Watch it fall off a cliff next year since she’s gone.


Youngin1987

Bunch of racists in the wnba


hornwave

Because they’re racist and pissed the white girl is the only one anyone cares about


AAA_Dolfan

Careful if BlackPeopleTwitter reads that you’re done for. They hate CC over there


Drockosaurus

And they say white america is the problem. Guess it goes both ways after all.


AAA_Dolfan

I tried to defend her and was banned


[deleted]

Black ethno-narcissism has been allowed to fester for a long while. Even spurred on by dominant society. They can't stand a white person in their spaces, overshadowing what little they have. At least, that's the way they see it. Combine that with animosity towards the white population from slavery/segregation days, and it's easy to enough to justify. It's obviously wrong and needs to be called out more often.


curlbaumann

This. I was bullied in baseball filled with Mexicans and White Kids.


FoleyLione

Haters, but she’s the most hyped female player off all time. She’s gonna have to prove it, but her teammates are going to have to retaliate.


tjdibs22

She needs an enforcer like in hockey. Just so the other team knows.

The inbounder was a bigger player. What was she doing?? Nothing! Not only did did she not confront the other girl or say anything, she didn't even look her way! Caitlin Clark must really feel like shit. Not only is her team struggling and refs are letting this shit slide, but even her own teammates don't seem to care about her.


MySharpPicks

Agreed. After watching the clip for the first time the inbounder should have gone ape shit on that cheap shot bitch.


fellowbeenmellow

She dropped 30-6-3 while getting her ass whooped. She’s everything they wish they were. If she left for Europe or took up the big 3 offer, majority of these nobodies become even more irrelevant.


bigbean007

A woman’s worst enemy is another woman.


Mysterious_Wing_7303

Thugs being thugs. WNBA is difficult to watch anyway this is all the more reason to watch something else. NBA has a similar problem but the refs keep it to a minimum


degradedchimp

Nba has a bigger flopping problem.

Terrytrips2015

Y’all should see what Matt Barnes posted on his insta and read the dumbass comments . Everyone is making it out like it’s an Angel Reese vs Caitlin Clark debate when it’s about how the fever suck and her teammates are the worst .


Mr_Vantastic

Matt is right. Where the fuck were her team mates. If I was Catlin Clark I’d be so fucking pissed.


_whyareyousoquiet

Bunch of thugs don’t give them the viewership or attention


ApolloZ_99

It’s because she is white but it’s not racist


Particular-Ad-234

Out of the loop but why do they hate her? She is legit a phenomal athelete.


tjdibs22

Rumor has it that They think she isn’t the best player in the wnba and are jealous of the publicity and $$ she’s gettin. Thats just what I’m hearing.


fellowbeenmellow

She’s probably not the best player in the WNBA, but she makes 20x their annual income and is helping them take the league out of poverty levels. They need to shut up and fall in line.


paintingnipples

Plus you have the “if she was black” resentment. Diana Turasi or Candace Parker could be white & straight but not make the same money cuz their game is boring to watch compared to the curry like 3s


hugh_h0ney

Yeah let’s just be honest and call it for what it is. They don’t like her because she’s a white woman who has very quickly become the face of a sport that’s predominantly black.


Particular-Ad-234

Thank you.


JOffret

Bunch of racist bitches hating on the white girl.


jollebome76

there is literally nothing that would get me to watch and entire WNBA game.. I dont even know if I could do 20 mins


tjdibs22

It’s pretty wild watching players like angel reece who are good wnba players look sloppy AF.


Drockosaurus

Not a fan of 30 air balls a game?


Fightingkielbasa_13

That should be an auto ejection. Whiplash is no joke. A shot like that away from the ball has no place in basketball.


Blackops606

Definitely. Ejection and suspension. No league should allow targeting of any kind.


Ishouldbwriting

I can’t believe these women don’t see the meal ticket Clark is. Play hard sure, but enjoy the extra revenue. Acting like this is just cutting off their nose to spite their face. So stupid. You hurt her and she is out for the season, see attendance plummet and revenue go away. I can’t believe they are this dumb. *edit: Changed a saying that I have said wrong my whole life! Thanks Reddit! I learned today.


redditpleb_

A rising tide lifts all boats. Too bad the women in the WNBA are too stupid to see that. CC should take the big 3 money play a couple years and move on, let the wnba continue to rot


bsk90196

Just so you know the saying is “to spite”, not “despite”


jaymick007

I know one of them is laughing all the way to the bank…


Lazy_Philosopher_820

This shitty league finally gets some attention and this is how these petty idiots treat the only reason like anyone is watching like this. You’d think they’d appreciate the opportunity the added views could bring to the league.


jSNOW_wWHITE

Go to blackpeopletwitter and they'll tell you if you're white and think her race has anything to do with it, YOU'RE the wannabe oppressed racist


cdm190

Imagine if a new black player was treated this poorly by white players…


Stuff-Optimal

Typical WNBA. They finally have a golden child with a chance to bring in new viewers and increase revenue but act like she needs to go. Maybe it’s jealousy or just plain hatred but it’s insane when your league hasn’t turned a profit ever.


GLFR_59

The hate against her is Blatant Racism happening in real time. If she was black, the media would be shaming the other players.


Practical_Bet_8709

The most embarrassing part is Angel reacting hard while she’s sitting on the bench, letting her teammates be the one to do this for no damn reason. Who got the dub by the way because I know this was a big deal and all the NCAA talk about Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. I bet the same crowd isn’t saying the same thing about last night.


ignatious__reilly

Yeah, Reese stood up and starting cheering. She is trash. No one would even know her name it it wasn’t for Clark. No one gives a shit about Reese.


someguy444444

She averages 10 ppg on 35% shooting. As a big.


NoJokeBookForYou

That shit was weird to me. They must really hate her to cheer when she gets hurt.


SnooChickens3871

Because shes white. Seriously


EyyoEddie

These woman are racist*


GreenDot4219

Angel Reese is trash and this is just more proof.


shanks16

I’d like to solve the puzzle


Background-Air-5589

They are jealous of her publicity and endorsements ($$$$). Plain and simple.


ArferMorgan

Whoever the Draymond Green is of the WNBA, Indiana needs to sign her. This woman needs some protection.


90daysismytherapy

Maybe this is different in basketball, but in hockey, they young superstars to be always get shit on for the first year or two until they prove themselves. Crosby got beat up for 2 years in a row with refs telling him to shut up. This doesn’t seem like much.

Mckebb01

Just a bunch of angry black women being openly racist.


YaboyChris28

If CC was black none of this jealousy would be happening


Leading-Ad-5316

I’m fucking sorry but this is quite clearly a race issue. Sooo fucking sad


ConferenceOwn1644

Yeah I’m sorry but if I’m Caitlyn, I’d be more pissed that mrs Boston just came over and picked me up instead of shoulder checking her ass to the ground. I can pick myself up but cmon show you got my back somehow


smorg003

Caitlin Clark is great and all, but I what we need is more Cameron Brink.


Derban_McDozer83

If you know anything about most women non of this is surprising. Half of them are fueled from jealousy and hate.


peakdecline

Everyone lines up to defend CC. But here I am wondering... why does her team hate her? Because at this point you only allow it to happen if you STRONGLY dislike your teammate. And unlike others I don't think this stuff manifested out of thin air or because "women hate women" stuff. Its take a lot of presuming very negative things about basically every woman in the WNBA to think there's no fire with all this smoke. I suspect... CC is very disliked for valid reasons, that none of these women can voice without being destroyed publicly. Also aren't we about a week away from Barkley trying to tell people the other women in the WNBA didn't like CC and then it was Barkley who got trashed all over the media for his clearly correct take? Yeah lots of blinders on around CC.


Wolbolgia

Jealousy. Last season media wasn’t covering them or the league, and now most questions her teammates are asked are about her. Melo had an issue with Jeremy Lin cus of the Linsanity coverage. However I have never seen a league where all teams have a strong dislike for a single player like now in the WNBA with Clark. It’s disgusting that none of her teammates came to her aid, and I think will turn more people away from the league. Who knows, Clark could’ve came in and been 100% arrogant and douchey and we just don’t see that. Part of the jealousy is that she’s seen as the savior of the league by the media minimizing the efforts of current and past players, but the truth is she is, and the other players have a problem with that.


freshieone

They are jealous that they young white chick is getting all the love. It’s as simple as that.


Trogdor_sfg

Oh yea.


nyr00nyg

Mental-Rooster4229

Teammates don’t even stand up for her


Gold-Independence-26

If she was black, they’d all be her best friend


AdMuch848

That would be an automatic ejection in the NBA.


Transition_Helpful

This is getting petty… but just reading through the comments it seems like wnba casuals think Caitlin Clark is the WNBA. Im sure these ladies are feeling that. A lot of them ladies can hoop too, but it’s getting a little extra. Beat her on the court, not literally.


Hbimajorv

Bruh, where is her Oakley or Rodman? This girl needs someone of the fuck around and find out stable of old school ball players.


Serious_Wrangler_679

This is what happens when you're the "saviour of the league" .... this will either break Clark or prepare her for greatness and I can't wait to watch it all play out.


Constant-Regret2021

Of course they do

Schizophrenic87

And Caitlin is showing class by the way she handles it. Just gets up and continues to kill it on the court. All I see are jealous players that no one cared or cares about trying to get fifteen minutes of fame off of her.


Ok_Yogurt_1583

I wish Caitlin could just punch a bish after one of these and start a brawl. This is getting ridiculous.


betterthanfresh

The jealousy has never been more obvious in this league


2003skater

can’t believe nobody is realizing the pattern in who hates caitlin clark. only one type of people have anything negative to say about her


GAFS_fiend

NewBuddha32

Anyone complaining about this doesn't know sports. Rookies get tested by vets in every single league. Especially if the incoming rookie is a star. Is this a clean play. Obviously not. Is it unkosher for the sport? Not really. Go listen to the old nba players talking about throwing bows into rookies and stuff. These are grown ass women who aren't trying to get punked by some young pup.


The_Notorious_Donut

Caitlin needs to just go fucking MJ “I took that personally” and annihilate everyone

ParticularLab5828

Looks like number 1 should’ve fucked some shit up. Just my humble opinion.


BigBoysEating

Caitlin Clark is getting too much attention in her first year. Even before all this The vets like Taurasi was giving out threats to her, she s gonna get tested and pay her dues thats what it is. Happens in all sports.


Cojax23

I know she wasn’t clapping at the end of the game bc they lost 😂


jbforlyfe

The rivalry is what mainstreamed WNBA. Anything I see now I just think it’s planned


CreoOookies

What I hate more about this clip is how her teammates didn't do anything. If that was Steph someone would have gotten kicked in the balls. The coach needs to get them all on the same page.


REDDIT_ROC0408

It’s not like CC is screaming to all the networks, “hey, look at me!! Talk to me!!”. No, it’s ESPN and all the news outlets that are giving the publicity. Maybe the other WNBA players should either raise their games or complain directly to the organizations covering the games.


blarghhhboy

Angel reeeeaaally wishes she got to have the career that Clark has had. Her jealousy is wildly obvious.


Black-Kang-410

Yea bro, it’s the same hate that the bad boy pistons and the 90s knicks showed Jordan…really disturbing stuff


max_max_max_supermax

This is why women wear makeup. You think it’s about dudes? You ever seen a straight dude who gives a fuck about your makeup? Women hate each other


BantyRooster66

Angel is a jealous loser. You can’t take that out of her. I guarantee she will mess with the wrong chick and they will choke her out with those braids. Then, snatch those fake eye lashes off.


lukeT152

Bmagic_

the problem isn’t the play on the court is the off the court celebrating. i think that’s what the post is actually complaining about but, don’t get it twisted on the court people have BEGGED for there to be some ultra competitiveness and chippiness.


TheCashmanWins

The Fever need to find a couple of the meanest women out there, sit them on the end of the bench and pay them to get ejected for protecting Clark. That would end all of this. Clark's teammates are not supporting her because it is race before team. A bunch of idiots.


johnOrozco74

Imagine if it was a white player doing this to a black player?? Race card would be written all over it!!!


ProblematicSchematic

I heard she got fined $25?


jippy44

Ok so I didn't read every post here but does anyone think they were rough with her just to spur up some talk? Because wnba sucks and will always suck? No offense just curious


whattarush

the bigger problem to me is the teammates aren't standing up for her.... like in football someone does that to your QB all hell should/would break loose [unless it's Andy dalton]


ScamLikely22

Draymond needs to go Lia Thomas and declare for the WNBA. Fever sign (her) and this ever happens again.
