They Didn't Put Caitlin Clark On The Official WNBA Playoffs Graphic

 

Sometimes I think the whole "Everyone vs Caitlin Clark" thing may be a tad overblown. Not because she doesn't deserve every ounce of praise she gets, and she definitely deserves a zillion more ounces, but we can't complain every single time, you know? But for the official WNBA graphic to simply exclude Caitlin Clark is fucking insane. Yeah, of course CC will say the politically correct thing like how it's not just about her and she loves other people getting attention and she just wants to win games and not worry about anything else, but good lord, sometimes I wish she would just say what we're all thinking- how bananas it is that they keep doing her dirty like this. There's really no good excuse to keep Caitlin off the marketing material for the WNBA playoffs. Yes, people are going to watch Caitlin regardless, but I think she's earned the right to be promoted correctly by the league she is single-handily saving. The whole "she's just a rookie, she needs to earn her stripes" argument no long holds any weight whatsoever. She's earned it and it's pathetic of the league to continue to ignore her. 

I mean the Mystics just set the WNBA attendance single-game record last night with Caitlin in town 

 

 

And TV viewership is up 199% when Caitlin is playing compared to when she's not.

 

 

So maybe put her on the fucking graphic? Funny enough, I started this blog like "oh maybe it's not big deal" but by the end of it I'm actually kinda mad about it lol. It's just so stupid for the league to go out of its way to exclude her in promoting the playoffs. The WNBA has the best thing to ever to it and they want to keep being like "nope, don't need her!". So, so, so dumb. The dumbest.
