Bullshit. He is a fine athlete but he is not a basketball player. The game requires skill set, not just athletic ability.

Did you even watch any of his highlights or did you just fill in your knee jerk your reaction? Because it's kinda obvious you didn't pay attention to the fact he played basketball in high school and was named All Iowa in basketball as a senior (and I assume other years too), and scored 1800 points in high school and 200+ steals.

If he's "not a basketball player" then why did he average (as I had stated) over 26-8-7 as a senior?

BYW Camilla Cardozo is 6'7", same height as the late Jerome Kersey. But I never saw Jerome strut his stuff in stilleto heels.

what in the literal and actual fuck does that have to do with anything?

I'm saying that the tired old attack on Women's Basketball was that if it was any good then people would want to watch it. Now Caitlin Clark comes along and the Women's college final gets better ratings than the Men's and suddenly we get this guy coming out of the woodwork talking about how he's better than her and the same morons who were making the old argument are now arguing that it's stupid to be paying her all this attention because the men are better.

Didn't think my point was that confusing.

It's confusing because nobody in this thread is actually saying what you're claiming people are saying. Ed said he doesn't watch Women's basketball for that reason, but nodding is arguing that people shouldn't.
 
Someone is unhappy a woman is getting too much attention. Newsflash. Your penis is not going to fall off.
 
There's probably a bunch of football players that could beat Steph Curry 1 on 1 - he's small and easily pushed around.

Don't think anyone would ever make these statements about beating Curry 1v1 or even if it's true that it would matter.

Kind of odd that this is a story.

Are you talking about me?

You mean the guy who said "It just turns into tribalism." and "That's not to say just because he's athletic, stronger and faster, that he's a better basketball player." and "I don't get why we need to be comparing mens and women's athletes as a way to justify or validate female athletes. Yeah, he could probably beat her at hoops, so what? She's still a great representative for women's sports. A woman's ability vs a men should have no bearing on their credibility." and

"She doesn't need to prove herself against him, just as he doesn't need to prove she's not as good as men are (or he is, in this case) either.

Like I said (I think I did?), her performance against a man doesn't change her performance against women. Women shouldn't need to prove themselves, or compare themselves, against men."

and "she ain't lying." (in regards to the whole golf thing).

Because IF you're saying that to me, you are too much into your shtick. You first said he was an "unskilled" basketball player, "not a basketball player" (even he was one in high school and it's not like that skill drops off the face of the earth because he played football instead).

Your act is tiring, and predictable. Which is sad, because you and I agree on most things. But you reacted to what you wanted it to be what I said, instead of what I *actually* said.

So spare me this "YoUr PeNiS wOn'T fAlL oFf" horse shit.

I'm happy for the girls game. They should definitely be paid more. They should be able to comfortably retire and be set for life after a 10 year career.

I'm good with whatever has to happen to make that possible.
 
Unfortunately what is predictable, any time a female athlete or women's sports is mentioned we hear they aren't as good as men.

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar and not a call to climb up on your Martyr box.

Also I just watched the video and the context changes it a little bit.

He was asked what the weirdest thing NFL teams were asking him and he said “if I could beat Caitlin 1 on 1”

I thought he was just running around saying “I could beat her”.

Almost like context matters ... but who needs to actually hear what was said when they could get mad about a headline?

And all this does is give this guy what he wanted, which was attention.

Why is it so notable that there would be this opinion when there's hundreds of millions of people in this country and billions on this planet?

Guess what the Taliban probably think Caitlin Clark should be doing?
 
We could be focusing on the positive, which is that Caitlin Clark is arguably the most popular woman basketball player in the history of the sport. Which shows great growth in the popularity of the sport.

Or

We could be focusing on someone who wants attention and sexism.

I'm not saying Caitlin is better than Sabrina. I said she's more popular. Although, I do have a feeling that Caitlin will be better than Sabrina. At least as a scorer. I think Sabrina is a better all around player.

I read the post that gave it context and realize I have all the information I need to say this got blown out of proportion by people who did not see the actual context.


Sounds about right for how our society is now.

Said like a man who isn't afraid of his penis falling off.

Well done
 
Context or not, I stand by my Air Bud comments.

True. I'll definitely take Sabrina over Caitlin 1v1. And I just think I'd like Sabrina more as as person as well.

It'll be cool to see these two squaring off in the future.

yep, take no prisoners. Those who preach tolerance are not at all tolerant against their beliefs.
