Sheryl Swoopes (and other Crazy Women) with some incredible takes
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
And Sheryl isn’t the type to EVER admit she’s wrong, so she’ll just keep doubling down and looking dumber and dumber. It’s perfect! 🤣
I don't think she's laughing her butt off. I think she absolutely believes what she says as dumb as it is.
And Stephen A. Smith won't back down on what he said like some others have after the backlash they received.
I hope everyone watches this. It is great.
"There is NO WAY IN HELL you just ACCIDENTALLY left Caitlin Clark's name out...."
--Stephen A Smith
If CC had had a couple of ho-hum games since coming back from the break, it would have been slightly easier for SS to justify it. But CC had 29 and 10 in the first game back, and 23 and 9 in her second. And that's after her last league game before the break when she had 24 and 19.
Over the last three games she's averaging 25 points, 13 assists, and 5 rebounds per game.
For SS to talk about the recent surge of the Fever, rattle off the names of 3-4 players responsible for the surge, and NOT include CC is nothing but pure hate. And she only included Lexie Hull with hopes it would give her cover from the R word.
SS is just a bitter, jealous person who doesn't like the fact that a skinny white girl from Iowa has taken over the league and has become a megastar, while 9 out of 10 people in the country wouldn't be able to name SS out of a group of 3.
Shephen A. Smith is dead wrong when he states, that aside from the Caitlin faux pas, Swoopes is a good person. Not true. Her short coaching disaster at Loyola starting in 2013 showed the world that she is a miserable and abusive person. Caitlin is just her the latest target. She throws hate at anyone that threatens her fragile ego.
I do think the "skinny white girl" thing is over played. Swoopes was listed at 6' 145 lbs. CC is 6' 150-155lbs as a rookie. She is pretty well put together and has superior core strength. The main reason she can shoot a 35 ft jump shot with relative ease...
Agree. That was more of a dig at the whole "she doesn't have the physicality to play in the league" nonsense.
Meh. So Swoopes was a skinny black girl.
Compared to Plum, Loyd, Lainey-Hamilton, etc., C² is skinny. But you're right, she is strong. I'd say she has a wiry strength.
But since Geno made his great pronouncement that Caitlin "is not built for the physicality of this league," I wanna see people use SWG as much as possible to mock him and his ilk.
Fortunately, you're probably not as petty as me 👍
On the Bird and Taurasi Show, Sue Bird said she went to Iowa City to watch the Hawks this year and seeing Cailin in person she was struck by how "sturdy" she was.
And this was the same team that at the beginning of the year haters were trashing Clark because she didn’t make her teammates better and that they were a bad team whereas Angel Reese was making her team so much better and they were winning. Now that the Fever are playing better, apparently it has nothing to do with Clark…she must just be riding their coattails.
Watch her post game interview in the last game where she was constantly rubbing her arm after it got hurt from the defender jumping through it. You notice there’s actually a good amount of “meat” on the arm. She isn’t built like a body builder, but she does have strength. And that is at 22 having been a college student for the past four years. Now as a pro where she has nothing to do but concentrate on her game, I’d expect her to put on a bit more muscle in the next few years.
David is a beat writer for 24/7. I can only imagine what he was called when he was right the whole time.
I love that he writes this: "there’s clearly a personal hatred toward Caitlin Clark."

The problem many people have is they think just because someone was a good player in their day means they know everything about the game, but they don’t. Often times very talented players never learn the intricacies of the game because they didn’t need to, they just got by on physical ability. That’s why many good players don’t make very good coaches. Swoopes was a good player, but she obviously knows very little about the game and talent evaluation.
Who are we kidding ?
SS is using the Collin Cohward game plan , Diss a Hawkeye or a National icon and watch your clicks and national attention explode. Her relevance prior to her CC bashing was negligible. Angel Reese used the same tactic.
Any ink is good ink especially when you were a has been nobody prior to your ridiculous takes.
She may be racist and jealous but probably not as stupid as she appears.

She really is something else.
And think about this: TV pays her for her "analysis."

People are really calling her out now, especially after what Stephen A said.
It's incredible that anyone would hire this woman.
I did a search and found this:
April 12, 2024 – The Dallas Wings have added Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame inductees Sheryl Swoopes and Nancy Lieberman to their 2024 broadcast team. Swoopes and Lieberman will serve as analysts on Bally Sports Southwest, the Wings’ local broadcast partner. In addition to Swoopes and Lieberman, veteran play-by-play voice Ron Thulin, NCAA and WNBA champion Fran Harris and experienced sideline reporter ShaVonne Herndon all return to call Dallas Wings games in 2024.

CC can play her game and cash her checks. The sideline yap flappers are irrelevant.

Have you seen her? She needs a lot more laughter to get rid of that butt……
At least Colin was right about the Hawks,, he was an ass about it but he proved to be right. SS is an ass and she's dead wrong.
He loves Clark btw.
The hatred is real.
Best thing she could do. Wish she would stay silent
Good free story.

Caitlin Clark Award Mention to Led to Awkward Silence From Sheryl Swoopes
The Caitlin Clark, Sheryl Swoopes saga has been an odd subplot of the WNBA season. Swoopes, a women's basketball legend, has come under fire for the way she has
Kind of reminds me of a poster in the CC thread. Keeps getting things wrong but keeps going at itGood free story.

As you can see, Sheryl Swoopes was paying close attention to last night's Fever-Sky game. Angel Reese got her double double LATE in the game and only by going up against the Fever's 3rd team. Sheryl was nevertheless impressed. And her thoughts on Caitlin's 31 point, 12 assist game? Crickets.
If you don't think there's hate & bias coming from Sheryl Swoopes, I don't know what else to tell ya.
