OT: Caitlin Clark first WNBA rookie ever to record a triple double

[EagerFan]

Reading that, I have to wonder what the impact of all the different streaming services hosting sports and the abundance of other entertainment options on the tube have had on the major sports teams viewership.

I mean, the NBA has become less and less interesting to me, personally, over the last decade or so. But I also wonder if breaking up the market and having so many channels has led to a marked decline in numbers of people actually watching games on tv. Because a half a million viewers doesn't seem like much to me, historically.

Caitlin Clark liked Taylor Swift’s post endorsing Kamala Harris, and now a lot of dedicated Caitlin Clark fans don’t like Caitlin anymore.

Weird.

Yeah, seemed like a bold move for someone in the Indiana market. She made a statement to the effect of she was lucky to have a big platform and thinks that encouraging people to vote is a great use of that platform.

If people listen to athletes or entertains or plumbers for Presidential endorsements we are even in bigger trouble than I think. I think the plumbers have the most common sense,

Trump was an entertainer b4 becoming president. Zelenzky was a comedian in Ukraine. Anybody great athlete or prominent in society as cultural icon has more power than u might 🤔 think

They’re one win away from 20 wins! Talk about an insane turnaround from starting 1-8!!!!

Same thing happened to Patrick and Brittany Mahomes after Brittany liked a post by a republican nominee.

Suddenly people were randomly hating on Patrick.

Weird.

She's a college educated woman under 30. You don't need a crystal ball to give you an idea of whom she's more likely to support.

You would think…but clearly some people don’t… The Instagram comments were intense…but have since been deleted.

I'm now randomly hating on @NUCat320 for liking this post. How dare he!

I'm rooting for Caitlin Clark now! Everyone here should be happy at last. 🤣

Well…from what I’ve heard (chatter carries fast here in Iowa), she actually isn’t a Kamala fan in the least. 🤷‍♂️

But she’s a Socialist!

Caitlin might beat Big Matt in a game of one-on-one if there was a three point line and possessions alternated.

She's that good.

 

[CoralSpringsCat]

This is incredible.

The WNBA guard that everyone on this board should be rooting for just helped end Caitlin Clark's season. Congratulations to NU's own Veronica Burton for advancing on to the next round of the playoffs!!

 

[EagerFan]

Burton had a good game and I think that's great! Let's all hope she continues to shine from the bench and the Sun sign her to a longer contract after the season ends. I think they got a steal in picking her up after Dallas waved her. She's young and will only get better.

Clark's season is over. I suspect next year's Fever will be a much more dangerous team given all the experience she, Boston, Hull, and Mitchell gained working together.

Need more basketball! Hopefully, the Cats stuff starts picking up soon.

Clark was unreal this season. Rookie of the year and 1st team all-WNBA. Broke an incredible amount of records, including most assists in a single season (she had some incredible highlight reel assists in that last game). She also accounted for more of her team’s points than any player in the league. Fever have a lot of roster holes….if they somehow get them fixed that team will be nearly unbeatable.

She’s kinda like the Chris Collins of the WNBA.

I admit this one confuses me.
