WNBA appears to be cutting it's own racist, woke throat

Here is the comment the Yahoo bot wouldn't let me publish....

"Woke can be stupid to the point of suicidal. Jeez...leave this girl alone, you big dummies. You're killing the golden goose here. She's really good. Deal with it, get over your own internal hatreds and play the game appropriately. This may end up being the death of the WNBA. Bunch of petty, angry dolts..."

Don't know if you know Clark's story, but she's an amazing player. The woke, angry, lesbian, black players of the WNBA don't like her and are beating the hell out of her on the court lately with flagrant fouls. I'm tired of watching it and, after never watching the league and finally tuning in, I'm finding myself wanting to do to it what I did with the NFL...turn it off. I'm disgusted by it.

    How dare a white girl be among the very best basketball players.
    The skill she obtained from endless hours of hard work is just being too uppity for not knowing her place when it comes to inclusive diversity.
    Hey, knock that cracker down for even daring to set foot on a basketball court!

    Would John Galt or Hank Rearden or Howard Roark or Henry Bowman watch tv sports?

      Interesting question, FFA. Personally, I have watched zero sports-professional or amateur, since the mid 90s. I always discovered better things to do and I suspect JG and HR and the others all are enjoying their time at the Gulch enjoying life as it was meant to be - Finding inner peace and enjoying Nature as it was intended to be.

        I enjoy watching golf if I have nothing to do (not very often). And, college football...even though I now realize I'm watching young guys cripple themselves....talking from experience.

      Positively! It serves as a refueling for creative individuals, like Dagny, whom you didn't mention, who require a respite, however brief, from their work. And if they'd wanted to play as children, but other goals and values required attention, yes, they'd watch and enjoy. Remember, the first line of The Fountainhead is "Howard Roark laughed," expressing the joy he has in living, despite his awareness of the hell he'll go through. (Sometimes, I think he's laughing at the author, as if even she could devise a hell to break him.)

    A number of so-called commentators predicted that Clark would have a lot of trouble in the WNBA because she's straight, white, and conservative. So none of the crap she's taking should surprise anyone. And Gilbert Arenas is fine with white guys taking brutal hits because "they're out to take our game from us." I guess I didn't know that Dr. Naismith was black...

    I guess the WNBA doesn't make any money because there are way too many people, like me, that just don't give a damn about the whole thing and will never watch a game or buy any of their stuff - even women.

    I have to confess....I was a very successful sprinter in my youth. 100, 200 meters. I was in the top few in the State in AAU track. Everybody in the state knew my brother and I because we were the only white boys who'd be in the 100 finals in big meets. You know what? Back then we never got any guff from anybody about it. All those black kids and families were very nice, seemingly colorblind. Those were fun times. When I was being recruited by many schools as a running back my black buddies were getting a kick out of the confusion the bigger schools were having with this white running back. There was a lot of prejudice in Div 1 football and I bet there still is. Black kids called me "white chocolate" in high school. Haha...

    I watch high school basketball only, until that gets too woke. This year there was a blue and yellow "Eagle Pride" banner right below my American flag, so when we stood and removed hats for the national anthem, we were also honoring this fake-Ukraine flag right below it, too. I asked a kid about it, he said, yeah it was to show school support for Ukraine.. I wrote to the new principal and asked why I am, saluting Zelensky's corrupt dictatorship? No response. "Why are you polticiz9ng our children with your political opinions?" No answer. Called the superintendent, he said the colors were a coincidence, but the banner was gone next game. Talked to the woke-bot new principal of the neighboring school, he's a joke too. Admin makes a woke mess, canceling Christmas, etc., wherever they go, their conscience bothers them, they have to leave?

    College I quit after George Mason made me move from one side of the arena to the other. They wanted the TV cameras to show a "full house" when they had sparse crowd, they put everyone on one side, and the cameras did not show the empty side I told them to go to hell, my ticvket said I could sit where I was. At the local U, I sat as usual, been going ther 10 years, and this year some security jackass said I coudn't sit there, even through there were only 10 people in the 1000 empty seats. "Your ticket isn't for that area." I got my money back and let concessions, arena manager, security and passersby know what a shithole the arena had become. No buttered popcorn, Taco Salad had become half-size. I went one more time, came in the service entrance without paying. If I ever go again, I will say I am "Press" (media reporter). It's worked before. They can kiss my unwoke butt.

    Africans are not the problem. American public-school-educated blacks are.

      "They can kiss my unwoke butt." Thanks, fairbro, I'm making that my new motto.

        Went to the Bball playoffs, and keep looking across the gym at this one kid on the girls bench. Looked like a boy on the girls team, in uniform too.. Sits on the end of the bench, a seat away from anyone else. When there was a team huddle (s)he stood a little apart. Asked a kid next to me, "Is that a boy or a girl?" The kid "Oh, XXXX, yeah he likes to sit with the girls." After halftime I was sitting in a different part of the gym, and asked some parents the same question but their vehemence insisting the boy ibn their team was really a girl convinced me it was a boy, as well as his shoe size, larger than any of the girls, and the fact that (s)he never went into the game. The kid's name on the program roster? "Leslie" or "Lindsay" something like that - one of those names that can go either way. I can't remember the name but it translates from French as a certain "flower.".

    Reminds me of what I read about the new CEO of Cracker Barrell. A "Woke" executive she has pushed them to change their menu, sell alcohol and promote lifestyles anithetical to their target market. She is trying to change their whole image when that wholesome, American country image is what built them into what they are. Former supporters are definitely speaking out against another "woke" corporate direction that ultimately will be terrible for the organization.

    I would tell Kaitlin to move to Russia, she will get $1 Million a year.

    I went back and forth to Russia and Ukraine many times, and used to watch many WNBA stars playing off-season in Russia for Big Buck$ until Victoria Nuland and Barky Obama overthrew the legitimately-elected Ukrainian government in 2014, ratcheting up the Left's relentless unending "Cold War:" against Russia yet another notch. The arena in Samara was only a couple of blocks from where I usually stayed in Russia

    Brittany Griner thought she was special, I guess, trying to bring in her drugs, caught at the airport? Nope, you ain't special.
