74 minutes of back and forth. CC is a HUGE Chiefs fan, of course.
You might want to skip to the 4:30 mark.

Caitlin's interview on "New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce"
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
168K views of a 74 minute segment in 6 hours. Amazing.
CC is a viewership/money making machine
I still can't believe there is not a CC/Nike shoe out yet
Sigh….its sad to see someone who I’ve mostly agreed with over the years be so petty over what he deems a political slight by an all time great Hawkeye and I can assure you most of us CARE a great deal. And you care enough to get in this thread to be contrary 🤷🏻♂️
I assumed his post was tongue in cheek. If not, ironic post is ironic.
Possibly, if so I will certainly apologize to him. He did complain about her “wokeness” and that he won’t watch her anymore 🤷♂️ recently
Look at this bonehead jagging an all-time Hawkeye player. Get a life.
Just finished watching, Really enjoyed it. C.C. does such a great job rolling with whatever is thrown at her.
Her connections are pretty cool.
* Travis Kelce & Taylor Swift
* The Indiana Pacer PG, Tyrese Haliburton--she's always hanging out with him
* Her good friend, Sheryl Swoopes! (I kid, I kid)
There are many others, of course.
Jason Kelce really showing his age, and position group, naming those Iowa players!
We can all disagree sometimes. In this case, I feel Caitlin consumes too much time on the Hawk boards and personally I have moved on to support the young ladies playing now. Actually driving to Columbus to watch them on Presidents day
Is Caitlin a great player, yes. Did she do great things for Iowa yes. Do I root for her yes. Do I care about her interviewing with the Kelce brothers (two attention whores) heck no.
She's earned everything she's gotten through hard work and perseverance. That's what I admire.
I haven't watched much of the WNBA, don't care for that brand of basketball. Haven't watched an NBA game in over 30 years. Seldom watch any professional sports, I use to, but they are grossly overpaid. Unfortunately, college is heading that way.
If folks want to continue following CC's every move, so be it. I'm not one of them. I have better things to do with my time and money.
That is a very detailed post for someone who doesn’t care. Here’s a suggestion, don’t open Caitlin threads. Here’s another reality, if Caitlin threads were to go away, the activity on this board would dry up. There wasn’t even enough activity before Caitlin for WBB to warrant its own board. Kind of ironic dealing with Caitlin attention hate here with all of the high tide lifts all boats admonishments previously directed at the W.
Fair enough & I even understand the Pro sports & sports entertainment in particular being to time consuming However the “who cares” was unneeded 🤷♂️
In the completely unrelated by still interesting vein: it’s intriguing to me how people that track pretty closely can be wildly disassociated at some things.
For example, if memory serves @GunnerHawk generally shared my opinion that a lot of our fans are boorish and complain too much. You n the other hand don’t like people complaining about the complainers…
Yet gunner is now “tired“ of CC because of a political thing and you and I both find it silly…🤷♂️
Funny how life works
This is not directed at you or anyone in particular. My two cents are that I think people overthink this. Caitlin is simply a wildly entertaining basketball player unlike any woman before her. People should just let her play basketball and not concern themselves with her personal opinions on social issues X, Y, or Z. She is not pushing an agenda down anyone's throat, she just wants to hoop. People just need to enjoy her hoops story, or not.
That’s exactly my opinion. And she didn’t say anything outlandish. In fact, I am about as “anti-Woke/left-wing agenda” as you can get and I share her sentiments for the most part.
There is nothing wrong with believing Black people, native Americans, foreigners, etc. have been treated poorly in the past. Hell it happens in every country in the world. We’re human beings. We are sinful, prideful, we’re petty, we’re prejudiced, we’re selfish, etc. etc. etc..
There’s nothing wrong with suggesting black women athletes deserve their day in the sun, and still accept you deserve your place in the hierarchy….
To me, that’s all she said.
In fact, if she said anything that I thought was overbearing, it’s that she “definitely” believed she deserved everything she had. As a 54 year-old man that has had plenty of ups and downs, and been blessed and also kicked in the teeth and realized I’m still more fortunate than many. I don’t love the “I deserve this” mantra,
I also don’t love the “oh whoa, is me I’m, an unfortunate son (to reverse quote John Fogerty) kind of thought that is so prevalent on the left side of the world….

You should keep telling us all about how much you do not care. It makes you edgy and relevant.
