THE HATE THEY GIVE

Tonight is the W.N.B.A. draft live from Brooklyn, New York.

7:30 PM on ESPN.

For the first time in my life I will tune in.

I’m only watching for one reason; Caitlin Clark.

With the first pick of the 2024 WNBA draft, the Indiana Fever select, Caitlin Clark of the University of Iowa.

Christine Brennan of the USA Today wrote a piece about Clark and the haters she has attracted. In the article she quotes a couple of WNBA players.

Where does all this negative talk come from?

Jealousy. Envy. Animosity.

Why can’t these pro players be happy for Clark’s success?

In sports when someone does well society wants to knock them down. I don’t understand that mindset.

Clark, the greatest women’s college basketball of all-time has lifted the women’s game to tremendous heights. People are watching because of her.

Always play the right way…
