Official WNBA Random Thoughts - Playoffs begin 9/22!
- Thread starter Saysumthinfunnymike
- Start date
I’m surprised NOBODY has picked up on this but..
The media doesn’t want to cover the WNBA. They only do it because they “have” to which is why their content is limited to Caitlin Clark, because that’s pretty much all they know. They don’t have any knowledge about most teams and they don’t even know about the players or Reese and Clark’s teams.
Clark’s teammate from Iowa plays for a team that trying to three peat and she’s gotten more press than Wilson at times.
So the reason why everything concerning Clark is being amplified is because they have nothing else to talk about. They don’t know all the teams and the star players on them. Why? Because they don’t give a shyt and Stephen A/Shannon Sharpe and a bunch of other media personalities have exposed that fact numerous times.
The back half of the WNBA regular season and playoff spills over into the first 2 months of the NFL season. Most of the country won’t give a shyt by then. The WNBA will be competing with the NFL and MLB playoffs. And that’s not including NBA training camp/preseason.

Yup.
That initial peak was the week of April 2 - April 8. The women's championship was on the 2nd.

They've anointed the Greatest of Women's Basketball history.
Clear the Lane Ladies.
Caitlin Clark is coming through.
Angel really think all these folks is tuning in to watch her throw shyt up at the rim from 2ft away?

Yet Indiana has been involved in all the highest attendance games and actual ratings. There's only one meal ticket in the W right now
She needs to connect with her team as well. Socially awkward athletes use the gym to avoid interaction with people.
I've never been a professional athlete so I can't speak to any correlation between spending time working on your craft and being socially awkward
What the media should be covering but you know why they won't
Good for Aja...but her team has had a shyt load of rest....The Aces have only played 6 gms......It'll be interesting to see if she can maintain these numbers.....There are a lot of players putting up huge stats right now (Collier, Hamby,etc_
nikka, when the media only talks about one person (who’s white) when white people have been STARVING for a dominant athlete to get behind, that’s what happens. It’s so bad for them that they’re actually latching on to women’s basketball because with every other sport…getting spooky
Caitlin isn’t dominant like they thought she’d be, and like the fair weather fans they are, they’ll stop tuning in because they were never real fans of women’s basketball in the first place.
If she gets injured and misses a significant amount of time those people will not show up to the games.
If she keeps struggling and football is back in the news cycle we'll see how much coverage the WNBA gets
Looking forward to seeing Cardoso again tonight
I was doubting her a little but she looked excellent out there last game.
Brink and Angel completely get ignored in the post by their teams
Cardoso 6’7 its different, can’t ignore her like that, they got her the ball a lot last game
