  • In the real world they call a business that loses 50 million a year an out of business. This league shouldn't exist cause it makes no profit. It is a handout line and those players have no right to complain

    Stephen A is 1000% on the money with his Caitlin Clark comments. It is idiotic for women to complain about pay discrepancies and endorsement opportunities when they make decisions like this. It is a matter of jealousy and spite. The old guard resents the hell out of Caitlin Clark because she isn't the best player in the league yet she's got all of the money and exposure. You can absolutely feel the animosity through the screen.
  • @mcanqb
    The lack of awareness around Caitlin is EXACTLY why the WNBA is losing $60M this year.
  • @basco0717
    NBC should be mad for losing viewerships due to Caitlin not being on the team.
  • @wrliii0204
    Caitlin Clark is fantastic. I haven't been this excited to watch basketball since I was a kid watching Dr J
  • @nascarjoe7006
    I get tired of the merit issue. It's even more maddening because of both Stewart and Taurasi making statements about Caitlin Clark not making it to the Olympics. "Her time is going to come." Both of them went to the Olympics their rookie seasons. Both were put in above better p[layers and Taurasi is doing it again. Even if you don't think it CC then it should be Arike Ogunbowale. She bowed out because she said it's all politics.

    I swear Stephen a looks like Ludacris could be his brother

    7 gold medals in a row and NOBODY CARES, if they don't want to invite the superstar that EVERYBODY wants to see, no wonder the league loses money every year and NOBODY cares about 7 gold medals in a row.

    Stand on business Stephen A! Numbers don't lie
  • @Seracen
    If they had cleared TWO spots for Caitlin Clark AND Angel Reese, they might have been able to capture the Magic/Bird dynamic that turned around the NBA, back in the day.
  • they don't value marketing. Plain and simple. If i was in the marketing department, i'd quit cus they mess up my stats
  • The only thing they are trying to get across is this: “This has never been seen before and you may never get a moment like this Caitlyn Clark moment again, so please capitalize on it as much as you can. Yes you will reach your goal anyways but this Caitlyn Clark situation can get you there in 3 years instead of 10…That is all.” So please put her on that team so those Queens, Bosses, Go getters, Rulers, (and whatever other term properly fits those ball players in the W and across the globe) can get closer to getting what they deserve and are long overdue for.
  • Amen, there are 3 people that can be removed from the woman's Olympic team. Maybe CC will get tired of all this drama and just leave the WNBA. So many are making $$$ off the back of CC. Everyone is taking the enjoyment of basketball from CC 😢 She doesn't look happy.
  • @jahjoeka
    Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese on the same team would've been so HYPE! I would've geeking! Damn!
  • @El_Bueno
    There’s 4 players from the Aces. They’re 5-5. WTF????
  • @mattsweat9176
