WNBA isn’t mature enough to survive

I’m not an NBA fan – I don’t even watch the finals when it gets down to it. And, I’m sure not a WNBA fan – and for more reasons than I don’t watch basketball.

I feel that the Women’s National Basketball Association is not mature enough to be its own association – and many in it don’t deserve to be professional athletes. They act like immature school girls that are jealous that one girl has a better shot than another girl has and they’ll make her pay for being talented.

Instead of using Caitlin Clark, a professional basketball player for the Indiana Fever, who is regarded as one of the greatest female collegiate players, twice named national college basketball player of the year while playing for the Iowa Hawkeyes, as a poster child for bringing an audience to a sport, fellow players pummel her and referees choose not to call them out for that bullying.

Now, Sophie Cunningham, a pro-player with the Seattle Storm, has spoken out after a confrontation involving two teenage fans led to disciplinary action against Seattle Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton.

According to sportingnews.com, “The WNBA suspended Keaton from attending Seattle’s next five home games and issued an undisclosed fine following an incident during Tuesday’s game between the Storm and Indiana Fever at Climate Pledge Arena. The league confirmed the punishment after the fans accused Keaton of confronting them and using profanity.”

What caused the outrage from the co-owner? “The two girls attended the game wearing matching XX-XY Athletics shirts and carrying signs that read, “Thank you, Sophie, for speaking up for girls.”

“Their message referenced Cunningham’s recent comments opposing transgender women competing in women’s sports.”

So, two different issues going on. The first one, in my opinion, has to do with the fact that Clark is white. Maybe it has nothing to do with that, but it seems that she is the target of players who are not white and jealous that Clark can make the shots they can’t make.

Clark is bringing in a big audience because, finally, a female can make shots like the men do in the NBA. 

If her fellow players can’t make the shot – practice, people, practice.

Cunningham is being called out for the current climate that women, like the co-owner of the WNBA team, seem to feel that transvestite men playing in the WNBA is fine. Two young female athletes thanked Cunningham for stepping up to protect women’s sports, and apparently the owner of the women’s team thinks that’s a bad deal.

Holy cow.

So, for me, when the owner of a women’s team can’t remember that its women who make up the team and she needs to protect her players, then I think the sport is too immature to survive.

I don’t want to watch a bunch of Brittany Griners’, trannie women, play basketball.

I don’t appreciate LeBron James for his politics, etc., but I do appreciate his ability to play basketball. And, I don’t see the NBA opening up for women to play in their ranks. Talk about getting bullied – there isn’t a woman out there that could stand up to the size and brute strength of 98 percent of professional basketball players.

The WNBA doesn’t deserve my viewership; when they prove that they appreciate the women that play in their ranks, and will protect them – all of them, then maybe I can become a fan.

Meanwhile, the MeToo movement is a pile of garbage. Since when would a movement to protect women allow two young girls to be bullied by a team owner when all they want is women’s sports to be pure and women protected.

All Clark wants is to be left alone to play and not be bullied by other women on opposing teams. She’s an adult, she can take care of herself – but as a viewer, I find it distasteful and I won’t spend time watching one woman beat up another woman because she is a better ball player.

When women figure out that they need to protect each other, then maybe the WNBA will become a credible sport in the eyes of America.
