Title: I tell you what, unless they are playing the Lady Vols I am going Post by: volsboy on March 13, 2024, 08:53:49 EDT to be rooting for Caitlin Clark and Iowa. No reason other than how the minorities have disrespected her. They can't handle the fact that a "White Girl" can out play them. Sheryl Swoopes should be ashamed of herself. Plus the ratchet LSU and Carolina players. I hope they play LSU and Clarke hangs 50 on them.
Title: Re: I tell you what, unless they are playing the Lady Vols I am going Post by: LouisVOL on March 14, 2024, 05:41:19 EDT Caitlin Clark is the female Larry Bird. I very seldom watch a ladie's game other than UT or U of L, but I will watch Iowa State just to see her make NBA 3's. The record is the record. I know Pete did it in 3 years, Jim Brown played 12 games, Babe Ruth played 154 games. But asterisks are for statisticians, a record is a record.

But my willingness to debate whether her accomplishment is greater than Pete's is almost zero because the talent levels are completely different.

I am not a fan because of her behavior, but I can still respect her talent. You do not get to be as good as she is without a ton of hard work.
