Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

[Pope]

From the film clip from the backboard camera, it sure looks like the fan tries to avoid contact, while CC looks for the contract, extends the arms afterwards, then does an extravagant pirouette including flailing arms to draw attention to her fall.

Absolute drama queen. Any goodwill she built up last year is gone for those that avoid the CC kool-aid. Imagine charging into a fan because you lost a game and still need to be the center of attention.

Yeah, the best part was how she remained down on all fours and had to be physically helped off the court. What a joke.

Next time we need Kevin Costner to carry CC off the court, beating OSU fans off her while Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" plays in the background.

You mean Keith Murphy carrying.

 

[BCClone]

That’s Keith Murphy’s job. “Caitlin, booby, I’m your white knight.”

Wait……booby??……. What am I missing here?

The quote from the presser is even MORE crazy bizarre - that level of self-centeredness / narcissism is actually pretty impressive.
Literally the PERFECT opportunity to express humility and NOT make a big story about yourself for the purpose of drawing attention to yourself, look like a very whiny/sore loser, etc.

Actual footage from the halls leading to the locker room:

Just the way CC threw her arms and head after the collision is acting on par with B level movies. She saw an opportunity to get more attention when she realized she was going to collide with her. Then to act like she's really hurt right after it happens to only rub it off in press conference just screams attention addict.

Did Caitlin die overnight, or is she in the ICU?

Todd Brommelkamp on 1600am in the CR area right now is hilarious.

Amazingly... he doesn't want to talk about CC flopping or anything associated with that... says he doesn't care. Instead, all he wants to talk about is how that OSU fan should have never been on the court, so it's all her fault, and colleges should be fined big money to avoid these things.... as if fans really give a crap if a university gets fined for them storming the court. And... it's well known that Iowa fans are some of the worst in the entire country, does he mention that? Nope. They throw full beer cans at officials, opposing players, and even their own cheer team. And then he brings up that us ISU fans don't need to comment on Iowa athletics all the time... and Iowa fans don't need to comment on ISU athletics all the time either.... uhh.. isn't that what rivals do?

Iowa fans and media have been bragging up CC all year, comparing her to MJ and Tiger even (lol), and saying how she's selling out every arena, etc, etc.... but then when an arena is sold out and their team upsets "the best women's basketball player EVER"... they should just sit on their hands in their seats and act like it wasn't a big deal? You can't have it both ways idiots. She's the best ever, but don't celebrate if you happen to beat her????

Do Iowa fans rush the field or storm the court? Of course they do. But Todd Brommelkamp has never went on the air the Monday after and talked bad about the Iowa fans for doing that. Why not? But when his snowflake CC gets ran into (or CC runs into someone I should say), then all of the sudden court storming or rushing the field is now an issue.

What was his take on Iowa fans throwing full, unopened beer cans on the football field?

Did he say which is worse? Fans storming a court after a victory or drunk, ignorant fans chucking full beer cans not caring who they hit or injure?

EDIT: Dang. I should have read longer. clonedude covered this.

Is this a little Die Hard reference?

She gone. The whole family is gone. House burned down and the earth salted. Just tragic really.

I've never heard if he mentioned anything about the full beer cans being thrown on the field by Hawk fans or not? If he called that out and wanted those fans arrested, then good on him.

But most Hawk fans I talk to at work, etc thought those officials deserved it for making the correct call on the field. They took away the 'best play in football ever!'... and so they shouldn't have done the right thing.

 

[clonedude]

Have Hawk fans found out who that OSU fan was yet... and threatening her and her family?

trauma unit still working on her. She will be in ICU until practice starts.

Cannot compete with Bandgate, Locker Room theft, Stanford Band proposed legislation, KF Racism Parts 1 and 2, rhabdo, Brands Brothers antics, Murder Attempt in Cyclone Alley, thugs, Pierre Pierce, Everson and Satterfield coverup, etc.

How can I forget, invalid fair catch signal.

I propose Baylor as a competitor here. Their volume of drama isn't as high but the intensity of it puts them in the running.

Day to day

 

[GoClone]

I hope she had a State Farm policy for an accident like that.

Absolute Mahem.

Where do they get their acting instructors at EIU. While not quite as bad, it reminded me of the Ryan Kriener flailing for a call from a few years back (maybe five). That had to be the worst acting job ever, if anyone can find it again.

 

[ZRF]

Why was Caitlyn trying to coax a foul when the game was already over? That's the real story.
