Be ready for long periods of silence.
Sheryl Swoopes (and other Crazy Women) with some incredible takes
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
Good. I would prefer it if she would just shut up and go away.
Bahahaha! You're doing God's work. I don't have the patience but I thoroughly enjoy watching
Holy shit!!! And all this time hating on Clark and she is saying “hate will not win”?

She may be the most insufferable POS in sports
Eventually you have to quit making excuses for someone. People kind of cover for Swoopes because she is a legend and I'm sure has endured some racism in her life.
But being a legend and someone who been wronged doesn't mean you aren't just an idiot with stupid takes.

Can't fix stupid.
Wonder if her GPA was even lower than Angel's.

I hope the report is true. Swoopes has been removed from todays broadcast. I guess the Wings had seen enough from her backing the flagrant foul, negativity towards CC and just too much controversy to be involved.
Interesting to see if it was the W Brass or the Wings who made the call

So, Sheryl has made it clear that she is fine with dirty plays against Caitlin. Incredible. Can't make this sheet up.
And what does it mean when Sheryl says that Diamond "is covered?"
Swoopes says she is blessed and "highly favored." LOL
Sheet, now I gotta go google "highly favored" to figure out what that means....
Could have been Bally Sports, too
This is from the Dallas Wings in April, when they hired her. No mention of why Loyola FIRED her, however.
Arlington, TX (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.
Three-time Olympic gold medal winner and three-time WNBA MVP, Swoopes was the first player to be signed in the WNBA. The Texas native won four WNBA titles with the Houston Comets and was inducted into the Naismith Hall of Fame in 2016, and the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame in 2017. Swoopes is the first women’s basketball player to have a Nike shoe named after her: the “Air Swoopes”. She is one of just eleven women’s basketball players to have won an Olympic gold medal, an NCAA Championship, a Fiba World Cup gold, and a WNBA title.
Following her 12-year WNBA career, Swoopes turned to coaching, with stops at Mercer Island High School in Washington, Loyola University in Chicago and Texas Tech University, her alma mater. She also served as the analyst for the Lady Raiders’ broadcasts, and has been part of the broadcasting team for Athletes Unlimited since its inaugural season.
Wow! It’s on the NBA network. Not sure how all of that works.
pretty sure they use the home team's TV announce crew so all of the Wings' announce crew will be there except Sheryl.....
how embarrassing for her!
The Wings official website now lists Ron Thulin and Naismith Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman as the play-by-play and color commentators and ShaVonne Herndon as the sideline reporter.
So that is the Dallas team sans Swoops.
Another WIN for Clark.
Knocking Swoops from the broadcast booth.
Just shows how wrong many feel she is.
Nancy Lieberman replaced Sheryl Swoopes on the TV broadcast.
Nancy just made some really nice comments regarding Caitlin.
Nancy said CC is one of the top 5 players in the WNBA.

This is seriously a case where the broadcaster should be fired. If your hatred for a player (who you don’t even know) is so bad that you can’t do your job, you should be let go. Can you imagine a professional like Bob Costas getting removed from an Olympic broadcast because he personally hates one of the athletes for no reason? Swoopes’ job requires her to be impartial and she obviously can’t do it, so she needs to be fired.
Later in today's TV broadcast of Indiana at Dallas, Nancy Lieberman (who replaced racist Sheryl Swoopes on the TV broadcast) said that Caitlin is the Rookie of the Year and to feel free to contact her if you disagree.
Lieberman also said that Caitlin is in the conversation for League MVP.

Truer words were never spoken.
Kinda got the vibe that Nancy was taking a bit of a jab at Sheryl.
Me too!
Glad to hear another legend stand up for Caitlin & put that racist trasher in her place.
That doesn't make her racist. She made that statement while explicitly explaining that she isn't racist.
