Caitlin Clark making only $76K as a rookie, sparks outrage

[Smokin Rider]

OK, the women who are crying about it need to go out and support the wnba and buy merch.... they won't

 

[aceboon]

they can watch the games, buy jerseys/merchandise, and cop tix to go to the games and support, that's the only way for the league to grow so they can pay the players more and launch more franchises. they make all of these reality tv/love & hip hop jawns and rapper baby moms famous and rich by supporting their bullshyt, do the same to the non-problematic athletes.

Then support the W so they can increase salaries

Yeah sorry but I gotta neg you smh

Spoiler

stop making sense

 

[Harry B]

It's funny to see people turn a mix of ultra capitalist and communist to support high salaries for playing sports, makes zero sense

They wanna break the rookie deal/designation now? Or they want male rookies to share their salaries?

 

[cartierhoe]

The main people outraged (mainly women) can’t name you 5 active WNBA players nor can come up with where they’re gonna get the money to increase salaries.

Why else do people think Brittney Griner played in Russia?

She made ~$1 mil per season there.

Before the incident, in one season she made more than she'd make in 6-7 seasons playing in the WNBA.

She played 6 seasons out in Russia which is like playing ~40+ WNBA seasons.

At her current salary Caitlin Clark would have to play ~70 WNBA seasons to match what Brittney made in Russia.

Supply and demand folks

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

Wnba definitely needs a better cba / revenue split.

According to twitter advanced search this chick has never once tweeted the words wnba,clark,reese,lsu, and all of her references to basketball are basketball wives and complaining that there's too many tweets about basketball on her timeline

That tweet is textbook fake outrage

[AAKing23]

Women just like to complain and not do anything to address the problem

Ok.

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Shoulda took that Ice Cube money

Seriously tho 76k is low AF for a professional athlete. Can you even maintain peak physical performance with that amount of money?

She’s fine, i’m sure she will make lots through endorsements, but this means lots of them women living in poverty just to play basketball
