Sunny Hostin laments Caitlin Clark's popularity is part of White, and 'pretty' privilege

[Lazaran]

Yeah. I fucked up the example but the media is all over the place. I still haven't figured out if she is the first in a new breed of women ballers or a total anomaly.

None of which has to do with the real fuckup of starting this thread to mock / criticize Sunny Hostin’s perfectly rational take on the Caitlin Clark phenomenon.

I submit for the defense of Sunny Hostin’s position:

Arike Ogumbowale’s faaaaar less than equitable compensation compared to Caitlin Clark is obviously due to "something(s)".

There are maaaaaany other examples, but Arike is EXHIBIT A.

"Equitable compensation" Is that what this boils down to? There's a bunch of dumb shits that better figure out how the real world works.

Whatever you say, karma boy.

Saint_Ann syndrome is rearing its ugly battered head…again.



The FACTS say there is TRUTH in Sunny Hostin’s contention of a racial and physical presentation component involved in the Caitlin Clark phenomenon.

Full stop.

She has been described as a generational talent.

I hope Clark can raise the talent bar fast because watching missed 2 footers is painful.

NBA, and college & high school male basketball players miss “2 footers” All. The. Time.

Say what? The NBA is the only thing that applies. This is professional sports. And no. NBA players don't miss 2 footers all the time. Better just stick to discussing partisan politics.

lol, you can’t help yourself can you

I had to google Caitlin Clark to find out who she is; Basketball isn't that big a deal here, especially the women's game. I dunno what you guys think is 'pretty' but to these old eyes she is a very attractive woman. Women basketballer's appearance isn't helped by the fact that they wear uniforms designed for men. About 12/16 years ago the Brazilian and Australian Olympic women's teams wore outfits designed for women and they looked stunning. Then some fuckwit administrator decided that they had to dress like the men and they all ended up looking like gangly boys. Huge missed marketing opportunity.

It ALL applies, as pro talent comes from colleges and high schools.

Also:

I can guarantee I’ve watched and played more basketball than Saint_Ann ever dreamed of, and I can state definitively that NBA players miss “2 footers” All. The. Time.

 

[Saint_Ann]

You just can't seem to pull that stick out a your ass can you? See ya.

That doesn't work. He's within 2 feet and still can't make the shot.

Blame the trans community.

Used to watch the Iowa girls hs state tournament on the TV and back then they wore skirts. Still not very flattering.

Lol.

Oops

She's the Larry Bird of the WNBA. She has three problems in the WNBA, she's better than the rest, she's white, and she's straight. She's unappreciated by the gay racists that surround her for doubling the size of the paying audience and hence their compensation as well.

A better analogy would have been Pistol Pete Maravich. He came into the NBA as the all time scoring leader in college basketball (in the pre-three point era) and was resented by several of the veteran black players on the team that drafted him (the Atlanta Hawks).

Hawks rebounding pro Bill Bridges was especially resentful, bitter that Maravich was paid more as a rookie than he was as an 8 year pro. What Bridges never realized was that Maravich was by far the most exciting player to watch in the NBA. eased He increased ticket sales tremendously home and away for a mediocre Hawks team, just like Caitlin Clark does.

"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin argued that "White privilege" and "pretty privilege" played a role in Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark's popularity during the ABC talk show on Wednesday."

Is Clark the Eminim of the NBA? Maybe she is just freaky talented. This is an example of what we can expect for the next 4 years if Harris is elected. Obama 2.0. That Ann is such a racist tho and so is Fox.


Discuss?

With Sunny, we’re forced to navigate the suffocating confines of the so-called "Klan With a Tan," the cloaked mob hiding behind victimhood while silencing dissent with moral fraud and racialized intimidation.

Maybe, but Larry Bird, like Caitlin Clark is the GOAT.
