re: So, Caitlin Clark does not vilify Angel Reese nor think she should be condemned.

She was talking to her teammate and roommate from team USA you dumb frick.

So you're saying telling your roommate to shut up because she's losing is good sportsmanship now? But if Reese had said that to Clark, it would have been poor sportsmanship?

There's all kinds of contortions to defend Clark's poor sportsmanship, but not so much for Reese. You're doing it, and you don't even see it.

It's okay, athlete's show poor sportsmanship on occasion - Clark, Reese, Byrd, Jordan, whoever.

Jordan did what exactly? He celebrated his championships with his teammates. Didn’t bother to stalk an opponent and get in their face as the last seconds ticked away.

Respect her for this comment and now I think she’s determined to work so hard to win it next year that I think Iowa wins it next year with that attitude

I didn’t watch this game due to us playing Bama in baseball which was on at the same time and I watched some highlights from the game and it appears a couple of lsu girls had a big night other than the ones being talked about.

It’s a shame the perceived racism has overshadowed the actual game. Glad I didn’t watch it.

I would be embarrassed if uga football acted a fool celebrating their championships like lsu girls did.


You sure you want to go down that road? On the other hand, LSU is back so you won’t have to worry about championships any longer.

She took the high road, but as an LSU fan, Resse is pretty trashy. Flipped off the Iowa fans before the game, called Clark a ho and mocked her after the fame was won and then has been playing the race card since the game ended. LSU fans would be blasting this goofball if she played for anyone else.

Lsu guys didn’t stoop to the level of that one trashy girl either. You got a problem with them?

Because she is a total badass and best women’s player in forever.

The LSU Iowa rematch will be the most watched women’s game in decade ms

Caitlin Clark’s unapologetic and record-setting game look to take Iowa to new heights

The attitude
A crucial part of Clark’s ascendance — her appeal, really — is how she is collapsing (outdated) assumptions about how women’s players act and yap on the court.

She thumps her chest, barks at refs and eggs on the crowd.

It’s part of the show.

In the Elite Eight, for instance, she was captured telling Louisville’s Hailey Van Lith, “You’re down 15 points. Shut up,” and punctuated a play with John Cena’s signature “you can’t see me” hand gesture (“Even if they could see you…they couldn’t guard you!” the WWE star tweeted).

But there was this little hint from Insider

Caitlin Clark's 'very disrespectful' defense against South Carolina is motivating LSU in the national championship game

Iowa superstar Caitlin Clark played noticeably lax defense against the then-undefeated South Carolina Gamecocks in the Final Four.

And LSU Tigers players — who face Clark and her Hawkeyes in Sunday's national championship game — found Clark's antics "very disrespectful."

"Me personally, I find it very disrespectful," LSU guard Alexis Morris told ESPN Saturday. "So I'm going to take that personally going into that game."

"You're going to have to guard us," she added. "That's just the competitor in me, and the will to win."

When tasked with defending freshman Gamecocks guard Raven Johnson, Clark guarded her from a considerable distance. At one point when Johnson had the ball outside the three-point line during Friday night's contest, the 6-foot Iowa point guard waved her hand dismissively and continued to double-team South Carolina's bigs in the paint.

So make of it what you will.
