I’ve been out of the country for a few days and out of the info loop. I thought that Carter thing would have blown over by now, it seems to have only picked up steam. Reading the article I’m wondering what the big deal was for the sky. Someone filmed them and asked questions as they got off the team bus?
Chicago Sky players report harassment at team hotel after Chennedy Carter's hard foul on Caitlin Clark
Chennedy Carter's flagrant foul on Caitlin Clark has become something bigger.

One of you immediately said Reese would play victim in this whole thing. Well, I'm not an advocate of going after a team bus but you did call it...
It could have been a lunatic but the article said someone asked questions with a camera raised as they got off the team bus. That’s harrassment? They are a bunch of snowflakes:
I would add that for someone in the public eye who chose to do something controversial while in public, being asked a question in public is not being harrassed.
I'm not sure why you had to go there with the last sentences. It's not a black or white thing, but a culture thing. Yes, she doesn't really complain. Most she has said is that basically she has accepted that she will get roughed up and knocked on her ass a few times a game, and that she will deal with it. She either is intentionally not saying anything with the hope/expectation others will, or she is choosing not to say anything and people just happen to want to talk about it. Quite a watershed moment for the W. It will be interesting to see which way the waters end up flowing when it is all said and done
This comment is ridiculous.
Now I can't unsee it..
Carter looks like the love child of Marshawn Lynch and Sammy Sosa.
I wouldn’t even say it’s a cultural thing per se. Women tend to be brutal and nasty toward other women, especially the ones they are jealous of. That is true regardless of race. Welcoming the hotshot rookie to the WNBA is another piece to this.
Would not.

Well, now some might say you are being misogynist.
Black women and white women absolutely act differently.
I try. 😝
Can you just stop, you sound like a moron. Are you one of the Bass brothers from Trading Places? Have you heard about the concept of nature versus nurture? There is nothing encoded in a race where one is inherently or predisposed to being a bitch or dick. Now, it could very well be that a particular culture is predominantly one race, and those in that culture all of the same race tend to have a character trait. But, that is the culture. Take that same person of a particular race and pluck them out of that culture at birth and put them in a different culture and they will be a completely different person. It is nature versus nurture.
Seriously, how many black women do you know? Shoot, how many white women do you know? Lol.
I think it more likely reflects a lack of experience being around diversity on his part. Not all black women act the same, just as all white women don’t act the same. There is a lot of diversity within all races, so to paint all women of a certain race as behaving a certain way is laughably ignorant.
The ironic part of this is that his wife is hispanic.
I live in Fort Lauderdale. You don’t think I interact with most races on a daily basis?
I agree with you. I’m talking about the culture on AA women under 30. Of course not all AA women act the same.
I would just say it isn't worth it to make those statements with qualifiers. While there could be truth in certain stereotypes in general at certain in points of time in certain parts of certain countries, you cannot possibly parse it out carefully enough to not offend people or just be flat out incorrect. Best you can say is you think Person 1 is a punk bitch, and people who act like him/her act like punk bitches too.
it’s like saying all MAGA are terrorists right?
