The Indiana Fever are back in the playoffs—and they didn't even have to play a game to get there. Losses from the Atlanta Dream and Chicago Sky on Tuesday night clinched the Fever's first playoff berth since 2016.
Guess who is primarily responsible? And guess why the Fever have the best offence in the WNBA right now?

She's Taylor swift in sneakers, lol...That's a great line.

She's their Wayne Gretzky...The players better figure this out and stop targeting her.

Lexie Hull: "Get my hands on as many balls as possible." And CC and Kelsey take it the wrong way 😂

Females are doing just fine when physicality is not a factor. Right now in Canada, 55% of all college graduates are female. And the most recent Canadian medical school classes have a mean of 58% female and a mean of 42% male. So, take that!

I'd like to see the overall data on STEM degrees. Medicine generally has a lot of interaction with people. Concern and empathy for patients is also a good trait.

From what I understand, women currently do favor positions that involve high engagement with people.

BTW, Nike has dropped Tiger because he no longer has the ability to bring in significant business. In other words, as someone famously said: its business, not personal.

Yes, Tiger's ability has dropped significantly.

The Tiger-Nike relationship was terminated more for the fact Tiger's deal was expensive and Nike does not have a good golf business. Running shoes and gym shoes don't seem to translate easily to golf shoes and more importantly equipment.

It's very possible we will see the Tiger brand around golf for our lifetimes. Similar to how Michael Jordan still reigns over basketball shoes. However, no one will sell merchandise like Michael Jordan.

Caitlin has had to take some ridiculous hits. If the players don't figure out she's the proverbial golden goose, the league needs to step in and do something. But then, some people will be crying racism.

It reminds me of Michael Jordan's immediate rise in the 1980s. Teams literally decided they would beat the shit out of him. After awhile, I believe the refs were instructed to protect him more from physical abuse on the court. It was a very smart business decision for the league. Michael Jordan made the NBA a global brand.

CC is a generational player. The US lost a lot by not having her in the olympics. They probably should have pick Angel Reece as well. Imagine 2 rookie and they would have been forced to play together, which would have been good for both.

The views of final match would have been phenomenal.

Now US still won but who watched it?

I watched women Rugby for the first time in my life because the show was entertaining. No one was a clear favourite and we saw the emergence of Canada and the US taking silver and bronze respectively. We should also have cheered CC on for a gold.

I havent watched basketball at all since the Raptors won in 2019 and Kawhi left. Until now. Now I watch whenever the Fever are on. Its exciting to watch CC flying and making those ridiculous passes. Her efficiency has increased significantly now that her teammates know to expect her passes from any angle.

And dont look now but the Fever have won 5 straight and are 7-1 since the All Star break.

Caitlin Clark averaged 25.0 PPG, 10.0 APG, and 7.7 RPG to earn eastern player of the week honors for the third straight week.
Rookie of the year is in the bag. Soon, she will be in the conversation for MVP. What a player!

Against players who are not good enough to play against any men's collage team or any paid and many many unpaid men's teams.

I am sure I can dominate a boxing tournament against terminally ill 4 year old girls, but it wouldn't mean anything.
