The Washington Mystics moved tonight’s game against Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever from their normal 4,200-seat arena to the 20,356-seat Capital One arena.
However, the 16,000 extra seats weren’t a problem, as tickets sold out in 30 minutes. https://t.co/ZHvKqBqQdJ

But for a team that’s a sure thing for gold medal why wouldn’t you include her to keep the interest going? I think the wnba legit thinks the ratings bonanza will continue but it’s probably not gonna happen without her there.

I'm sure they want her on there..ratings and merchandise sales would be crazy high. She was probably asked and declined because she didn't want special treatment and more butt hurt from players. [Reply]

Ok. At this point it’s time to move on as it’s clear that you have an opinion and despite overwhelming evidence against it you will continue to just dig your heels in and adjust your responses to fit the narrative that you want. You are essentially the Loneiguana of the main board. [Reply]

I don't think it works that way. Imagine a more retarded british Hootie. Hyper-fixated and unwavering. What Knowmo might look like if he watched soccer and smacked his head on a curb 3 or 4 times. [Reply]

I think of him as the Knowmo of this thread. [Reply]

I think we all know why. Christian laettner had no business on the USA team. This has nothing to do with the most qualified. This is about the back half of the roster that will barely ever play. They claim fans would complain that she got too little playing time but we know that’s
bs [Reply]

The fat Jemele Hills of the world would get triggered and jealous if Clark was on the team. [Reply]
She should have been rostered for eyeballs, if nothing else. She probably shouldn't make the team, but they're crazy for not putting her on there. [Reply]
