Angel Reese = race baiter????...

[ptrich]

Reese, who tries to keep her name in the media through a so-called feud with Clark, made a remark after stinking it up in a game against the Fever and alleged that racists remarks were directed at her. Everyone jumped on the bandwagon to denounce the comments to include Clark and the Fever team. It turns out that after an investigation, if you haven't already seen it, the WNBA couldn't substantiate the allegations and they talked to the fans, arena staff, and reviewed all the video and audio available, and just couldn't back it up.

What probably happened is Reese was getting a lot of flak in a hostile arena, so she decided to interject non-existent racial comments about her just to get back. At least, that's how I see it.

She's a one-dimensional player, who grabs a lot of rebounds while hanging around the basket, with many of those off her own misses, but she usually doesn't have a high scoring game. Basically, she's the Dennis Rodman of the WNBA, and has nothing close to the game that Clark brings.

With HH forced out and Coyle returning… this place is gonna be extra lawless in its final days.

Good point. Let’s all take the gloves off and go down swinging.

Nothing fun to talk about anyhow. It’s too early to see “fire the coach” posts when he hasn’t coached a game for us yet. Or, is it?

1. I’ve never been a fan of Clark
2. I don’t like Angel’s brand
3. The play started with Reese giving Clark’s teammate a forearm shiver to the back of the neck (no call in front of the ref)
4. Clark’s foul wasn’t all that flagrant, Reese drama flopped to the floor then got off the floor to start some shit; Clark was defending her teammate IMHO
5. One of many reasons why I don’t watch chick ball

Social media. We'd all be better off with out it.

I'd listen if there was evidence.what doesn't make sense is the Fever have black players too. Tamika was loved by the fans,so are the racists just picking their spots to be racist?

Like Tom Petty!

 

[Hoosier Clarion]

Reese and Griner project the same image. Trouble looking for an opportunity and location. Damn poor representatives of WNBA.

 

[ams66]

Like I said I think it’s all fake and intentional. They need something to keep the fans interested so they manufacture these feuds between players and they say outrageous shit knowing it’s going to be blasted all over social media

 

[sobester]

I’m sure that wasn’t the intention. I mean, it’s about a random women’s basketball player in another city on an IU basketball board. Seems on point and no reason for it not to be an on-point coversation.

 

[HoosierAlum07]

who tf really cares about her or what she thinks about the race card? Not me!!! Not one little bit! It’s just non-news crap for espn people to talk about on their talk shows that more and more people are tuning out of. I haven’t watched a bspn talk show in years!

It’s a rallying point for a certain group….see! We’re good and they are bad!!!!” What it really is just one of hundreds of loud-mouth entertainers.

My grandfather was probably the most overtly racist person I’ve known in my life, but he had a way of overlooking things if the black players were on his favorite team. And good. That’s not at all uncommon.

What’s the “WNBA”?

I totally agree with #3 and #4.

[benhyoung14]

She misses 2/3 of her shots. She's got to do something to stay relevant. Eventually, shell get people guarding her straight up, those rebounds will go down, the passes up, or she'll be forced into irrelevancy.

How exactly was he overtly racist? My grandfather would use the N word, but he would speak well of those black people he respected. Chris Rock had a bit about how there were black people and there were n words. He said there was a difference. Perhaps your grandfather and mine were saying the same thing as Chris Rock?

Last yr for IU's men's basketball team it stood for, "We Need Better Athletes".

Your grandfather was racist too. You're so dense, I'm not even going to waste my time.

I was asking you to explain how your grandfather was racist. Maybe you are dense in not reading my question. Also was Chris Rock racist too?

Because he spoke of people of color poorly, thought less of them (unless they brought him value) and held them in a lower regard than white people. White people got the benefit of the doubt, black people didn't.

Chris Rock is a comedian, numb nuts.

I'm 1 of those Grandfathers. Fact, no white man made me a racist.

To your grandfather’s credit, it does seem he was at least less racist than you.

I'm not exactly sure what you're saying, but I think I know. If so, that's disappointing. But perhaps further clarification might change my view.

Are you Angel Reese?

I know in your eorld not hating a group to which you aren’t a member is nonsensical,,,,,,,but no, I’m not Angel Reese.

Do you consider Angel Reece racist?

Do you consider Angel Reece racist?

No sure. I’d consider Sheryl Swoopes a racist for sure. Reese has a lot of motives I think.

What do you mean by hate? What exactly have you seen in my writing where I have displayed hatred about any person or group? Now do I disagree with what some folks say or do? Yes. But that doesn't mean I hate them. That is unless you say that disagreeing with someone is hate.

Thinking everyone should be legally required to behave in accordance with YOUR interpretation of of YOUR preferred religious book and that rights should be allocated therewith is hate dude. I don’t expect you to understand this.

Your instincts are correct.
