Columnist Enraged that Caitlin Clark Is Getting a Shoe Deal Instead of Black WNBA Players. I’ve never watched more than five minutes of a WNBA game because it looked like a bunch of hormone drug addicts out there. I saw maybe three or four games.
Caitlin Clark will add pure excitement to a boring girls game that might draw 10,000 tops. Some teams averaged less than 5,000. Who wants to watch a bunch of men wanna Be’s?
Now we see where a so called journalist is upset that Clark may get a great shoe endorsement. “If she does,” Freeman writes of Clark’s pending shoe deal, “Clark would join only three other WNBA players with signature shoes: Breanna Stewart, Elena Delle Donne, and Sabrina Ionescu. You may notice a pattern there.”
It’s all because of racism, Freeman exclaims.
“What so much of this comes down to is a lack of respect for the Black women of the WNBA. A lack of respect for Black Americans overall isn’t something new to the marketing world. This is old hat. That doesn’t change the ugliness of it,” he claimed.
