Sports? WNBA? Caitlin Clark?
On This Site?
Not sure why I stopped watching all sports on TV a couple of decades ago but I do remember when … it was when Jim Kelly’s Buffalo Bills couldn’t get it done … again and again.
I’m sure that wasn’t the entire reason – but that’s when I lost interest. Poor Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, Andre Reed, Bruce Smith. It was too bad. Great players.
Then, last year, I was flipping through some broadcast channels – stopped to see this little skinny girl make an incredible shot from about half court…it was a sight to see – and then she made another – just as incredible a shot … and then another. I stayed on the channel and watch with both amazement and amusement. And the teamwork – I really enjoyed it.
I was ‘hooked’ and fell in love [figuratively] with Clark and the Indiana Fever … . I mean I got an adrenaline rush just watching her play … and not just her – the team – as a team – was really, really good. I’d never heard of the WNBA [- and never, ever, watched NBA].
I am not going to review and list all the awful things that have been happening to Caitlin Clark – I saw it all – we all did. I will say that I pray for her emotional well being – and her physical safety. Too many mean spirited opponents. Very annoying … and so very wrong.
What a Talent! [and anyone exercising such a Talent – in any aspect of life – is just joyous for me to see].
So, I am watching the Indiana Dallas Game [Aug 14]. The contrast between this game and so many other games Indiana plays is striking and had me get up and get behind my keyboard …
– THIS ONE WAS SIMPLY A GREAT GAME BY TWO VERY EXCELLENT TEAMS –
It was great! Great Game. They played hard – but mostly fair [I saw a foul I thought was a bit over the top but… no hatred. GREAT GAME.
Full stop.
The other crap has got to go… . It just does.
Oh, and sorry, I just can’t help myself …
It is WOMEN’s Basketball – and I know the difference between a man and a woman.
So much nonsense in the world today.
I’m Just Sayin’ … .
