I regret starting this thread.

Mystics show out.

Fever loses to Dallas --- or rather Caitlin gets beat by Paige.

Anneli Maley gets picked up by the Mercury and then helps them to destroy the Aces.

About the best opening weekend of basketball I could have imagined.

Also Caitlin is apparently a Morgan Wallen fan so she’ll be canceled soon

My first in person Liberty game of the season tonight, y'all!

Imma Ellie Stomp like it's my goddamn job!

The New York Liberty become the first 2 time Commissioner's Cup Champions in WNBA history (okay, so it's 6 years, but still...)!

And Breanna Stewart, the first 2 x CC MVP.

I love this team.

The Sophie Cunningham pointing video/meme is dominating my social media feeds right now

i am here for it

Did Caitlin Clark believe she was the league’s best ever before she became the best ever? Every highlight i see of her now is her freaking out about not getting calls like she’s LeBron after 20 years in the league.

Sophie Cunningham?

I would.

She’s certainly entering prima donna territory.

I loved watching CC in college. What's happened since she entered the W is hard to watch. And it sucks because she really is a great player. But the entitlement is out of control. I'm starting to be anti-CC. Which sucks because I just want to root for everyone in the W.

If "I would' means ban her from the league for life and maybe even press charges? Yes, Fo sho.

When I saw the notification you responded to this post, I thought you were going to yell at me and Ruddo for daring to say something negative about her.

But on to more interesting and exciting conversations! ...

The Liberty won their last two games by a single point. I was at Barclays last night and I have to say, as much as I adore Natasha Cloud and want to see her have all the success in the world, that game was lights out! Felt like a playoff game. So thrilled I got to see Tash play live again, but also so thrilled for my Liberty.

I don't have a ton of confidence that NYL will make a deep playoff run this year, so it was nice to see a game like that.

Nah, man, she's on thin ice as far as I'm concerned. I'm pretty sick of her shit. Which I hate because I really wanted to root for her coming in to the league.

No horse in the race in regards to CC

Granted it is highlights but she does seem to absorb more physical fouls than most others. Then when she returns it in kind people label her dirty

Watch more W. That just isn't true. If anything she complains more or causes more contact and gets furious when it doesn't go her way. It's not that she's "dirty" it's that she thinks she deserves preferential treatment.

I watched Sidney Crosby in the nhl go through the same thing. Penalties were t being called like on others so he voiced his displeasure

Most athletes don’t want special treatment they just want calls to be called both ways

Is everyone going to get into the WNBA next summer if baseball strikes?

Or at least bet on it.
