She’s popular because she broke every scoring record in NCAA HISTORY. Period
Asterisk, Pistol Pete didn't not have the 3 point shot and did it in 3 years not 4.
But Can't Win a Game 😂❤😂❤😂❤😂
All time Scoring leader and 3rd all time career assists leader in the NCAA. Impressive for anyone.
EXACTLY!
Also because she's white and more relatable to the demographic that Ad buyers love to market their products to.
Don't forget that part.
Sunny should be fired for her racist remarks. Caitlin Clark is not popular for "pretty privilege"! She is popular for being extremely talented at basketball!
It's dipshits like Sunny that are making me come out and say this, but: Literally no one is watching Caitlin Clark because she's "pretty." She actually is not pretty. She's very good at playing basketball, and that's why people like to watch her play basketball. And for someone to allege that she gets some sort of "white privilege" in professional basketball, which is perhaps the most non-white sector of society you could possibly talk about, is just hopelessly stupid.
The View, unbelievably awful. A disgrace to women.
Sonny is incredibly racist but the morons who run the show like it when there is racism against white people. They obviously love it.
I hate to break it to her but Caitlin Clark ain't some bomb shell 😂
@Littlebigtime Sunny knows that. She's not very attractive at all. She really wanted to say white privileged, but she can't because the girl can play ball better than anyone else. The view complained that the wnba players were not paid enough, now that a white girl is getting everyone in the wnba a raise, they complain! Unbelievable.
This lady said “tall privilege” 😭😭😭
never heard that one before lol
@@user-sc6nb9xr8q it’s always something w this woman
lol yeah if anything tall women have it worse
Shes trying to mask what she said
You can’t be making privilege statements about the looks of people with that anny are you OK sleeping with children in your theme park looking nose
Whoopi: she's had more 30+ point games than anyone in the last 25 years
Sunny: it's racism
Sunny really is a garbage person.
Sunny should not be allowed to talk about race until she pays her reparations.
she can talk about whatever she wants. You ppl always trying to take away other ppl rights.
🤣🤣🤣
@@vpc4829 nope, that is what Sunny is doing by reducing everything down to race. I am just throwing back at her way. If she wants to reduce Caitlin Clark's popularity and achievements to her race, then I will continue to bring up the fact Sunny's ancestors were directly involved in the slave trade.
We can play the race card all day long.
She believes that the game has not 'loved women back', but i guarantee that she has not attended a single WNBA game.... not a single one.
@@vpc4829who is you people excuse me racist much?
@@vpc4829 shut up racist .
I am a black man and that reporter is flat out racist and hates Clark she needs to leave that young lady alone SMH
Clark can shoot better than the Pistons
The fact you feel the need to help your position by stating the color of your skin makes me feel sad for the future direction these race hustlers are taking us. These idiots are scaring working class Americans away from the Democrats.
This is what happens when you teach a generation of folks that black people cant be racist. You get Sunny up there spouting racist nonsense and the audience doesn’t even see it for what it is. The banality of evil in a nutshell. It’s such a shame that this young woman finally got eyeballs on the WNBA and instead of appreciating it both sides want to use her as their political frisbee.
you may be a man but you're not black. esp if you dont understand how JH isn't racist.
Ok Tom
Black women have NOT collectively supported black women ball players since 1996.
Liar.
lol
Has sunny ever watched a wnba game before because there’s a difference between playing basketball at 5 years old and playing it professionally.
So people don’t idolize black athletes?
Jordan
Lebron
Serena Williams
Tiger Woods
Simone Biles
Give this girl the credit she deserves! Sunny’s got to shuffle her deck bc she plays nothing but race cards.
Exactly the argument is easily destroyed. Honestly the race stuff is annoying at this point.
Those are champions . This is HYPE GWhOAT is all she is.
@@donnharlem9604she’s the all time leading scorer in NCAA basketball history.
Only five you can name?
@@Supersauce88 Who is second? Why don't you know or care about her. And she shoots the most. If you shoot that much at a carnival yea you will win something sometime. DID you see anyone else shoot?. Basketball is a team sport Not someone who just shoots, Can she play defense or is she a ball hog. Just say you like her because she is white. Its ok. We know you need a sports hero. Because you feel genetically inadequate
Sunny is so weird. How is a straight white woman not considered relatable, but a black lesbian woman is? As Whoopi said, this has nothing to do with skin color or sexuality, this has to do with her record, and it definitely speaks for itself.
Not to mention it’s Sunny’s race (on her dad’s side) that is the most anti-gay.
What about the relatability of a white lesbian and a straight black woman?
WNBA have lesbians?
Sunny said a white women is relatable and we saw the racism when her and Angel reese when back in forth on the court.
Somehow Sunny will always make it about race.
Clark is not the highest paid player in the WNBA. She is getting a rookie salary. She is getting more money than others from endorsements. Wilson and other companies are giving Clark these deals because she is incredibly well known and popular. It is a business decision. If more people knew and liked some of the black and/or lesbian WNBA players, these companies would be giving them deals. Michael Jordan, LeBron James, and Kobe Bryant all got huge deals. Not because they were Black, but because they were extremely popular and well known.
Yes, like $75k/yr I believe and then plus endorsements.
I’m black.. I watch her because she pulls up from half court like Curry.. what other black female baller doing that??
Thank you bro. Smh
And she isn't A HOMO
What other baller period is doing that, man or woman? She’s the closest approximation to Curry’s playing style, man or woman to blend volume, distance, and efficiency. Dame has the range, but not the efficiency or the sauce. And Trae is a great value logo shooter.
Why is Sunny so obsessed with Race? She is single handedly trying to make the world think that we live in the 1960’s and it’s so tired
Sadly we are living in the 1960.
Because one side of the political spectrum is trying to bring us back to a time where equality was a lot worse.
She is stating facts.
It's getting worse then the 1960's. This is modern day slavery times and if you don't wake up, you are going to be in for a rude awakening.
@@200555280 Straight facts!!!!! Our black people are in trouble. I can see from some of these posts. They don't know racism when they see it!!!!
And these Women are still not watching the WNBA.
🎯🎯🎯
Facts
How dare you! 😂
Facts! I’m glad the only one that was honest was Alissa
True. As soon as Sarah butchered Paige Bueckers' name I knew they dont actually watch
Sunny face when Whoopi was talking was priceless 😂she couldn’t say anything to disagree and at the end Whoopi cleaned up Sunny nonsense comments 😂again
Women were crying about lack of support for the wnba and now they can’t even root for Caitlin Clark who’s the reason they have sell out games now.
Their urge to always oppose white people is just too strong for them to overcome
I agree with Whoopi, Caitlin Clark is receiving all of this praise and attention because she is the all-time leading scorer in both men's and women's college basketball and she is finally bringing that attention to the WNBA. It has nothing to do with Clark's race or skin color; if she was black she would be getting the same praise and attention from everybody.
It's people like you why black people don't advance if you don't see the racism. You probably think that the police kills people because they are black either.
Dont forget the most important reason
she plays like steph curry
A black woman would have received the same praise but not the same endorsements. Serena Williams and Maria Sharpova come to mind. Serena had the most wins of anyone in her league even in men but is was literally years until she got endorsements while Maria won once and gets five.
@@adey126 Thank you for that!
@@DavidLee-vp3nrCaitlin Clark also, plays similar to Michael Jordan with the behind the back passes, amazing shots, and putting her secret basketball formula into play to win games. Caitlin Clark titles it " The Caitlin Effect".
Clark has earned everything she has, she shouldn’t be diminished to lift others up. She has used her voice multiple times to life others up.
💯
She never won a championship in college and she has done nothing in the WNBA yet.
@@PMChannel. what's your point?
She scored 4 more points than mj in his first game. 😊
@@DavidLee-vp3nr My point is Caitlyn Clark and Angel Reese both entered the WNBA. Guess who the WNBA is concentrating their attention on? Angel Reese won a championship in college and she is making her name known in the WNBA. Let these players prove themselves in the WNBA and then get some endorsements. A'Ja Wilson is the reiging MVP with back to back WNBA championships where are the deals for her like Caitlyn. Not diminishing Clarke's skills at all, she is a pure shooter, but I would foolish to think her race did not play a small factor. It is what it is.
Jemelle is the biggest race-baiter of all time, besides Sonny of course.
Sunny was so triggered when Whoopi said she earned it lol
All the back & forth is annoying. I've been watching the WNBA since 1998. It has never received this type of attention before & I'm actually HAPPY about it. There are quite a few talented players: Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, Cameron Brink, Kamilla Cardoso, Rickea Jackson, etc. The fact that some people can't see the bigger picture here & would just rather argue is annoying. The WNBA needs all the attention & support it's getting right now. ALL OF IT.
The reason it’s receiving so much attention is because white people made it about race last year and went after Angel Reese because of all the hand gestures and she beat Caitlin Clark in the championship. That’s why keep it real.
I agree. And I think all women and their potential, needs attention and support. It is so discerning to hear someone like Harrison Butker tell women graduating that they are living a lie..and their highest potential is to stay at home and take care of them and their children. So many on the Right are moving in that direction..to take away a woman's power. It seems that now that the polar opposites are getting further and further apart. Maybe that is a good thing, I do not know.
Amen... Please say it louder for the people in the back.
I wouldn't be a fan of Kelsey Mitchell and Nalyssa Smith if it hadn't been for Caitlin Clark.
If you have been watching the WNBA since 1998 then you should that there was this type of excitement when the league first began. The dynasty of the Houston Comets with Cynthia Cooper, Sheryl Swoopes, and Tina Thompson packed the arena every night they played. The excitement with legend Cheryl Miller and Nancy Lieberman, Rebecca Lobo. Cheryl Miller and the Phoenix Mercury always packed the house. Over the years interest had diminished somewhat. Caitlin Clark is not the "great white hope" they always seem to look for.
@@PMChannel. Exactly!!!!! I watched all those girls you just mentioned!!!!
Caitlin is great!! Give her the credit she deserves! It is not because she is a white woman! Ppl find any reason to be a hater smh
...you're naive.....she's ok, but the big deal here is she's getting more money and attention than many black women who were far better than they ever received...does that make sense to you?
@@brownr749 No.
@@shejustwright I corrected some of the wording in my first message, if you still don't understand, ask a 5th grader.
@@shejustwright No?....ask a 5th grader, afterwards, come back and gleefully tell us what you learned.
@@brownr749 ok, will do.
If you know anything about Jemelle Hill, you aren't shocked that she had such a horrible take on this.
Can we start naming the advertisers that keep the View on TV ?
Name who? Why? Burning Crosses are illegal now.
There are a lot of race and gender issues but this Caitlin Clark stuff is ridiculous. The woman is amazing. What’s wrong with celebrating her? She brought in a lot of fans who otherwise never watched women’s basketball. Give her credit sheesh.
Whatever happened to women bringing other women up instead of bashing them cuz they have "tall privilege"
When your satisfied with being disrespected and not getting the attention you deserve because you go out there each and everyday to polish your game and your better but no one ever hears your name or accomplishments I guess its okay. When the little black girls don't see the black faces on tv day in and day out like CC and she becomes their role model instead of them I guess that okay.

@@denisebailey3226the little white boys had to see Micheal Jordan/Kobe/Lebron James day in and day out and who ended up becoming their role models (which is awesome that happened). CC is bringing more eyes (which means more little black girls eyes) to the WNBA and welcomes them to the amazing players who are black and leads them to have new role models that are black. The little black girls can’t have more than one role model?!!!!
But to be fair to your point: where are all the female black role models? Is the medias fault? Is it the business giving out endorsements?
What do you think affects one over the other? The media/business’ effecting the audience or the audience affecting the media/business’??
Correct answer is both, but it Starts with the the audience of eyeballs 👀 to get things rolling.
You can blame the way the media portrays things or you can blame the majority of people watching first that caused the media to pay attention and jump on it
@@denisebailey3226 You don't see black faces in sports........are you blind? What about the black female tennis players, gymnastics. There may still be discrimination but not in sports.............oh, I forgot, we need more black Hockey players, LOL
This shouldn’t be about race. This woman has earned her accolades. Let it be! Enough already!
RE : "This shouldn’t be about race. "
But it is.
It doesn't dimish her achievements or make her any less of what she is to admit the truth there is.
Trying to sit there and pretend like her race doesn't have anything to do with all the endorsements she's received and earning opportunities she has is like trying to pretend we all never witnessed the same thing a decade to a decade and a half ago with Maria Sharapova and Serena Williams.
Americans trying to pretend like race isn't a factor in some of these things that happen in life is a large reason why America will never deal with its race issue and racism.
You can't deal with, or solve a problem if you keep pretending it doesn't exist.
@@Cbricklyne wah wah
But it is.
Sunny just said "race" and you all loose your heads over it.
Seriously. She said a whole lot more. Why just pick that race word??
@@Cbricklyne You are absolutely correct.
Yes, because black athletes have no fans right
She made no sense, thank you Whoopi so people know all black people don’t feel the same way
Thank you, Whoopi!! Why can’t we just celebrate excellence for excellence?! I will never understand those who want to just find reasons to bring others down.
Ya, why’d they have to go to Russia!? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Because the 'celebration' is for WHITES ONLY! If she was Black she would be ridiculed like Angel Reese.
WHY does almost EVERY conversation with SUNNY have to be about race. SMH
The CZcams ad hadn’t even finished playing and I already knew where Sunny was going with this. Same with every time Kamala is discussed.
Zac Brown story wasn't about it😂😂😂 maybe it's you?
Because it's her reality.
It's relevant and YOU PEOPLE can't handle it
Because it’s realty
The irony of Sunny insinuating that Caitlin's success and fame can mostly be attributed to being white and pretty, while Sunny herself (a millionaire) is getting paid at least a six-figure salary for simply spouting out her opinions on national TV, is rich indeed.
there is no irony.
it's fine to recognize the hype behind a player and not get offensive.
@@jusletursoulglobaby the irony I’m referring to is how Sunny is attributing Caitlin’s hype to her being white and pretty instead of her talent, while Sunny’s job on the View requires zero talent.
@@dreamcastluvr I think what is ironic is how it doesnt seem you actually understand her take. or Jamelle Hill's take. Both were speaking to MARKETABILITY and neither directed towards the player. That's the only thing ironic. Everyone has such strong opinions and are quick to suggest something malicious but no one is actually responding to the observation both made
Those aren't Sunnys opinions! Those are her puppet masters opinions!
Believe me for all the polemic she creates she is badly paid. Really badly paid. Joe and Whoopy are the one getting all the money. Sunni gets only 130 000. Whoopy 7 millions
Clark does not have the highest salary in league history. She makes the rookie scale of $76K. She gets the vast majority of her income from endorsements. The Aces' Jackie Young makes the most at $252K.
The view is always about RACE
Thanks to your boy tRump, everything's about race these days. 😉
The WORLD Is Too😂❤😂❤😂
DemocRATS/left/liberals is always about race
@@richardwilliams4976 It was B.L.M. in 2013 and the media that started making everything about race before trump even ran as a candidate in 2015. The media is obsessed with race and Trump. Just look at this video of The View, they do this everyday.
👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿
Sunny the racist strikes again!!
Stop it. She's popular due to her competitive nature, great range on her shots, slick passing, and just general she's a baller. Period. Some players have the it factor and she has it. And she's getting tons of support from Black folks, including Black NBA and players and former players.
S Hostin is that person that’s always looking for the negativity in others. Can’t celebrate other people’s accomplishments.
Only the accomplishments of ppl and causes she favors.
She is THE reason people are watching. The've had to move to a different venue to accommodate the # of fans showing up
the fans are white as well.

Caitlin Clark is outstanding at basket ball and she is also very humble and doesn't have that "look at me attitude". She earned every bit of praise she has gotten and the fact that race and her being straight was brought into this is uncalled for. I could tell by the annoyed looks on Sunny's face she would bring race into it.
Predicting Sunny would bring race into it is like predicting Friday will follow Thursday
@@victorwest8041 You nailed it.
Leave it to a bitter black woman to cry all day
Because They Do All The Work but Can't Get PAID Like the White People. Imagine That.
The view should have a disclaimer.
Saying that they don't speak for women or black people.
The way Whoopi said, "do not make them pink!" 🤣
😂 I totally agree tho
02:15 Eye-glitched lol
I fell out
it cracked me up because the women DO play with a multi colored ball instead of just a "normal" one like Whoopi is asking for.. granted it's not pink :D
Thank you Whoopie, thank you Sara, spare me Sunny. Caitlin has earned everything she is getting you didn't need to make any of your it's all about racism comments. Don't diminish Caitlin and her incredible accomplishments because she is white and straight.
💯
Only Sunny didn't say what you're saying.
@@peterporkeresq.2817 Correct me if I'm wrong, but was Sunny spawned by racists?
@@TicklerDudeobviously not since Sunny stands against racists including in this presentation
Who tf is ajamila Hill???
If I were Sunny, I'd be calling my financial advisor to quantify my debt as far as reparations.
What does "The game not loving women back" mean? The game is a game, it has no feelings. If you mean fans of the game, then I'd steal from Bill Burr, if women actually watched the WNBA instead of Keeping up with the Kardashians, the players would all be making waaaaaaaay more money, and be way more popular.
I agree with Whoopi 💯💯💯💯💯💯
So you actually agree that wnba players are often just as good, if not better than the players in the nba?
Here comes sunny again playing the race card for someone who works extremely hard. Just pathetic
“Race card” okay racist lol
She was spawned by racists.
Facts are Facts, when a black woman is the highest score in NCAA history but never mentioned, yet CC has never won a natty but was marketed every time Coach Staley did an interview almost as if CC played for South Carolina.
@@alphasports3743 Basketball is a TEAMS sport, and CC does not have to win anything to prove that she is the generational player, and one of the best. Lynette Woodward also lived in different times when racism was out in the open. Stop bringing race into everything, sheesh.
That’s her role on the the View! That’s how she makes money! Racism is a billion dollar establishment.
Sunny, quit the race card on this. Let it be about what it is…Clark’s talent and skills.
Sunny needs to issue an apology to Caitlin Clark. Diminishing her accomplishments like that is ridiculous. If she doesn’t I’m sure there will be a petition to get her off the show.
Watching someone hit a 3 pointer well beyond the line is just more impressive than a bunch of players that can't dunk, hack it up under the rim. It just translates more to the viewer.
Closer three point line. Smaller ball. Not apples and apples
@@flashinthepanpaydirt7387 I'm not comparing her to men, just saying why it's a more entertaining product then what the WNBA has been.
That's almost everyone in the NBA. They mostly all can shoot way beyond the 3 line and the line is further back in the NBA. Think about that. Curry, Dame, Luka, Harden, etc. CC needs to get a better dribble, a left hand and play defense. Right now Breanna Stewart is the best in the WNBA. Two time MVP and she's white, so I don't think color is the issue. CC is trending right now. She won 0 titles and she's 0-4 in the WNBA. Making deep 3's don't translate to wins. she's a liability on defense.
@@kicknowledgesmith8608 Maybe her game won't translate and WNBA will go back to being mostly irrelevant. I'm just saying why people are interested in watching her, and not other players.
Nope. Maybe to women.
Hill dislikes her because of her race and sexuality.
Hill is an affirmative action queen.
Listen
Did you know that EVERYTHING that doesn’t go the way these people want is because of race, sex, or sexual orientation?
Well, now you do.
she broke the record from someone else who was also white and straight.
For someone with skills and talent.
race will always win, instead of bring up races in every conversation ,let's talk about uniting
Sunny makes absolutely everything about race, she mentions Britney who was ARRESTED in Russia because she thought she was above the law and the rules didn't apply to her. Sunny is such a hypocrite when she says no one is above the law.
This a wild statement. The girl made a mistake that’s it. And because she was a notable person Russia decided to use her as a pawn and keep her to trade prisoners
You cant deny that lots of anti woke crowd were saying ohh she is a democrat, black , gay and anti American.
You wouldn't understand. That's not why she mentioned her at all
Sunny speaks the truth that you're not aware of. Sarah is constantly cleaning up to make white people feel comfortable.
Agree re sunny but re Britney it wasn’t so much her ‘feeling above law’ it was fact the way Russia handled it and kept her. She had packed the oil in kit many times. This time caught due to political air. Sunny brings race into stuff but she wasn’t being hypocritical..context of story re oil and how it was handled etc was issue
Lets give out participation awards, none of these ladies, has ever even been to a WNBA game.
So I thought we were against hating on women success?! Did I miss something? Not everything is about race Sonny.
She’s obviously an amazing athlete. No one really cares to watch WNBA and that’s it. Good for her- she will have her name set in stone for excellence
Whenever Whoopi talks basketball, I just remember how great Eddie was
What a great movie!! I was rooting for the Knicks this playoffs 😂
Ivan make basket :)
One of my favorite movies.
@@brientaylorcohenyes but Ivan has never heard of a thing called…DEFENSE! lol 😂🤣
it's honestly exhausting when people try to force every single thing through the prism of modern politics. Caitlin is an indisputable absolute dynamite talent. That's really it. People want to see excellence in action. This could be a watershed moment for the WNBA.
When you only see in color, like Sunny, everything comes down to race. She doesn’t have anything else to add outside of the race angle on any subject.
Her highest salary in the WNBA is probably the lowest salary in the NBA.
When she can score 30 points, 10 rebounds, & 4 assists against the men, then she could get paid more. The NBA already subsidizes the WNBA .
The salaries are lower because the audience is lower.
The WNBA has NEVER made a profit. We'l have to see if this season is any different.
NBA minimum salary is 1.1 million. Unfortunately WNBA isn't there yet
Also, she doesn't have the highest salary in the WNBA. Not even close.
Whoopi chose not to play race politics today, hopefully she maintains the same objectivity on all issues.
Whatever! 😜
@@richardwilliams4976You are right, Whoopi, Joy, Sunny and this whole show are totally Whatever!!!
This was a great segment. Kudos Whoopi and Sara.
Scored 30 points last night. She's not there because she is privileged!
She doesn’t have the highest salary in league history. SMH at these fools.
Clark is making a lot of money, you're making it about race and gender, why don't you put up the money and buy the tickets?
Sunny hates it 😂😂 like sunny has ever helped and supported wnba
There is also a thing called 'SUNNY PRIVILEGE' - and I suppose we must try to accept that she just gets to continue running her mouth on national television.
WTF is Sunny talking about? How many games have any of these women gone and watched? That's why the pay so low
Zero

Sunny has a point too, you just don't want to face it that's your problem.
@@sandrafernandez3839 Sunny is a total idiot. Remember when the Supreme Court decided the NYSRPA v Bruen court case? Sunny Hostin said, as did Sarah Haines and the others, say I guess Republicans don't support states' rights after all. Here's the thing, states' rights don't go so far as to allow for infringement of individual rights. Democrats are STILL arguing this, prior to the Civil War they argued that slavery should be allowed under states' rights, but slavery also infringes individual rights. Sigh. Democrats just never learn.
@@sandrafernandez3839 Sunny isn't the brightest bulb. Recall that she (and Sarah Haines) said of the NYSRPA v Bruen case that I guess Republicans don't believe in states' rights after all. States' rights, though, don't go so far as to allow infringement of individual rights. And this is nothing new with Democrats. They were, before the Civil War, arguing states' rights allowed for slavery, but enslaving people also is an infringement of their rights. Then, when the Jim Crow laws were being challenged in the mid-20th century they argued that was also a matter for states' rights.
@@sandrafernandez3839 that's B's and you know it she wants it to be about race so bad and Caitlin is just a good player who cares what colour she is
@@a7xtherevrend Of course she is good player but the subject run deeper than her. You're the BSer so stop your hate.
A suggestion Why Don't "The View" Buy a WNBA team and Pay The Women what they should be Making!!!!!!
I bought a ticket to the Fever/Lynx game because Caitlyn is white, tall and pretty
I was on the fence but when I heard she was straight it checked all my boxes and I, too, purchased a ticket and started supporting the WNBA.
Sunny bringing up racial issues into EVERY sungle subject is tiresome. Many of the most well known athletes for decades have been black. Long before he was accused of killing his wife, OJ Simpson was a super star practically every one heard of
She's not the one who brought it up, though.
Whoopi did when she brought up Jemelle Hill's article.
Is Sunny supposed to ignore it or pretend like she doesn't hold the opinion she doesn't have just because you don't like it?
Also, it's funny you had to go all the way back to OJ Simpson to bolster your argumet of an athlete's skill not mattering, when along the way you glibly ignored the likes of Serena Williams in Tennis being out-earned in endorsement deals and whatnot by Maria Sharapova - whom she was a far superior Tennis player than, coming barely a decade ago.
I completely agree with you! To be honest she gets paid to do that! I doubt that’s how she truly feels. People make millions and millions of dollars trying to divide this country because racism sells
she’s like the little boy who cried wolf and I think someone needs to read that story to sunny and i’m getting tired of hearing how because i’m white i’m racist

Sunny sitting there absolutely fuming that there’s a better explanation than race.
The reason she’s so popular is because she plays with the fluidity and court vision of a man. She makes many WNBA players look like they are clones of George Mureson. George had an excuse of being 7’6”
Here comes Sunny… She used played Basketball… It’s a not a color issue…
At 5 years old 😂
😂
Darn everything is about privilege with sonny
Sunny owned slaves.
The whole commentary about Caitlin Clark should not be about race. Look at the WNBA landscape, the "stars" are both black and white. There are plenty of white stars in the WNBA and they have been marketed more than other players. But while all of the OGs and legends of the WNBA have built the platform that today's stars are standing on, CC has done something that is different and unique. She has helped to make the WNBA a main line sports topic. And that is special. Why does the discourse have to be about race but not just a transitional player who shines light on the whole league. That is a lot of pressure to carry and so far she has done it with grace.
Caitlin Clarks skill, ability, talent, and successful performance on the court is why she gets the praise she does !
Of course sunny had to make it about race
I like Jemele Hill but come on!! I’m so sick of the CC slander. She’s a great player and appears to be a great person off the court. The unnecessary and unprovoked criticism is exhausting!!!!
So you like open racist?
@@kevinkunnasseril1084 I don’t consider her an open racist. I don’t always agree her takes but I would not going to accuse her of being racist. I’m not here for name calling. If you want to partake in that go right ahead but that’s not me.
@@ShannonD-C I forgot what my college professor said… ‘black Americans can’t be racist’ lol
@@kevinkunnasseril1084 I’m not going to go back and forth with you. God bless you🙏🏽
I hope the view reads this ..... when jealous, egocentric and haters get together thats the kind of talk you get.. its a disgrace to women of all colors and social status when your own gender expresses such inmature and unsentive talk. I think all you be fired for promoting hate, egocentricism and jealousy instead of love, appreciation and unity in the world but especially between women.
Here me out. Some of the top NBA PAID players donate 1% of their salary toward the pay of WNBA players.
The critics NEVER want to acknowledge this. Just gender and race are the topics not what's subsidized to keep allowing women to play sports (bb in particular)
please don't give flack to Wilson. He is trying to survive in the middle of the ocean thank you very much.
Whoever is suprised by sunny I'm suprised by your suprise., Hill and her have a group of only black females friends (which is okay) but they always talk about race..
And ironically, it’s her own race that is the most anti-gay in every poll and survey known to man.
They make a great point here, “tall privilege” is completely out of control in basketball, must be stopped
Women watch the NBA to look at men. Men watch football to look at cheerleaders.
Whoopi taking her friend Jemele Hill to task for her take hahaha
straight?? what does her sexuality have to do with this
Black lesbians are the stereotype of WNBA players. Caitlin Clark, as a straight white woman, is more palatable to mainstream America.
This is the normal liberal response. Always about gender, sexuality, & race.
@@jarhead7602 OR, many wnba players are famously queer. Grow up, maga
Identity politics is all liberals care about.
Sadly, there been a history of a stigma associated with women and some professional sports. Fortunately, it's been dying out, but it still exists for some.
Well, whoopi, maybe you can't tell a lesbian when you see one, but this lesbian right here knows a lesbian when I see one. LOL.
Everyone supported Griner when she was imprisoned in Russia. Stop hating and start supporting other women.
Sunny is so inauthentic and calculating
I'm just here waiting for her to realize she just called black woman and lesbians less attractive then white women. That comment was so cringy.
@@ktbn22and Caitlin is average looking 😂😂😂😂
@acegohard4731 I don't really think of women as average looking or non average looking. That is the problem. Beauty is opinion and beauty doesn't always mean physical. If sunny is right we would have no black super models or no black models at all...they'd all be white...
@@acegohard4731 nobody cares, incel.
@@ktbn22she basically said they are inferior! I guess that’s how she feels! 👀😳
Clark is not the highest paid WNBA player, in fact she one of the lowest. Her teammates make twice as much as she does. Some players make 3x the amount she does.
I agree with whoopi , Caitlin Clark earned her spot and records.
Caitlin Clark is a phenomenal athlete who has made an indelible mark on women's basketball with her extraordinary talent and dedication. It is disheartening to see her criticized unfairly, especially regarding her race. Clark's success should be celebrated for what it is: the result of hard work, skill, and passion for the game. Shame on You Sunny.
I was a bartender for sports bars for 15 years. No one likes women's basketball. That's why they get paid so little. If it was on TV the patrons would ask for literally anything else to watch
Yet no one wanting to watch equaled the highest TV viewership of any basketball games on ESPN ever. How do you explain that?
@@RichardIILionheart he cant
Wnba is impossible to watch.😂😂 so boring
@RichardIILionheart your so butt hurt about facts.Cry for us
@@NYRelicHunters
At least try to make sense when you write.
I hate that they don't know the facts...she's not the highest salary in the W...she's on a rookie contract. All of the endorsements is because of her following. Now her following is because of who she is...and what she has done.
Clark is idolized because she is amazing.
Sunny has no problem going after Caitlin Clark, but says nothing about Lia Thomas cheating as a swimmer.
