It&#8217;s part of the game and if you&#8217;re prepared to back it up or suffer the consequences, then it&#8217;s basically all good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the Elite Eight and Final Four, Clark did just that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Against Louisville, she hit the Cardinals with John Cena&#8217;s &#8220;You can&#8217;t see me&#8221; expression. Against South Carolina, she disrespected the Gamecocks&#8217; backcourt <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BleacherReport\/status\/1642575145649819652\">by flicking her hand in dismissal of their shooting ability<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Caitlin Clark hit the \u201cYOU CAN\u2019T SEE ME.\u201d \ud83e\udd2f<br><br> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/P63jHIm5yU\">pic.twitter.com\/P63jHIm5yU<\/a><\/p>&mdash; WSLAM (@wslam) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/wslam\/status\/1640183608517464064?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 27, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But most impressively, she backed it up and neither team had an answer for college basketball&#8217;s star player.<\/p><div id=\"first-840533102\" class=\"first-content first-entity-placement\"><!-- \/22950135888\/FAP_Article_Leaderboard_Instream2 -->\r\n<div id='div-gpt-ad-1700413625220-0' style='min-width: 300px; min-height: 90px;'>\r\n  <script>\r\n    googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1700413625220-0'); });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She dropped a 41-point triple-double on Louisville (41, 12 assists, 10 rebounds) and almost duplicated it with a 41, 8 and 6 performance on the Gamecocks in the Final Four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For that, she had every right to talk smack. She more than backed up her antics, and that&#8217;s perfectly fine. It comes with the territory and no one criticized her, which was fine too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet on Sunday afternoon, the tables were turned for this time the smack talk was done by LSU&#8217;s Angel Reese and she unleashed it directly at Caitlin Clark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that&#8217;s when the swords, unsurprisingly, were unsheathed.<\/p><div id=\"first-4265983434\" class=\"first-content_2 first-entity-placement\"><!-- \/22950135888\/FAP_Article_Leaderboard_Instream3 -->\r\n<div id='div-gpt-ad-1700413989195-0' style='min-width: 300px; min-height: 90px;'>\r\n  <script>\r\n    googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1700413989195-0'); });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ANGEL REESE TO CAITLIN CLARK \ud83d\ude33 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2NY0CEzwJ3\">pic.twitter.com\/2NY0CEzwJ3<\/a><\/p>&mdash; SportsCenter (@SportsCenter) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SportsCenter\/status\/1642646161659154432?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 2, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Absolutely classless move by Reese.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Awful sportsmanship.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;What a classless move by Angel Reese. Doing WAY too much to taunt Clark,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dannykanell\/status\/1642646602236977152\">tweeted ESPN&#8217;s Danny Kanell<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then there was Keith Olbermann.<\/p><div id=\"first-2205481561\" class=\"first-content_3 first-entity-placement\"><!-- \/22950135888\/FAP_Article_Leaderboard_Instream4 -->\r\n<div id='div-gpt-ad-1700414036595-0' style='min-width: 300px; min-height: 90px;'>\r\n  <script>\r\n    googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1700414036595-0'); });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;What a fu**ing idiot,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KeithOlbermann\/status\/1642649593140637706\">he tweeted Sunday night<\/a>. &#8220;Doesn&#8217;t matter the gender, the sport, the background &#8211; you&#8217;re seconds away from a championship and you do something like this and overshadow all the good. Mindless, classless, and what kind of coach does this team have?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(To be fair, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KeithOlbermann\/status\/1642861230221041664\">Olbermann did issue an apology this morning<\/a>, stating &#8220;I apologize for being uninformed last night about the back story on this. I don&#8217;t follow hoops, college or pro, men or women. I had no idea about Clark. Both were wrong.&#8221;)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a journalist, Olbermann should have known better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But regardless. The hypocritical, racist venom that is always present and simmering in sports boiled over last night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Olbermann, Kanell and the other critics who bashed Reese failed to bash Clark last weekend, putting their hypocrisy on front street for all to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But again, it&#8217;s nothing we haven&#8217;t witnessed before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We saw it when Aaron Rodgers did his State Farm Discount Double Check celebration. We saw it again when Rodgers celebrated with a Key and Peele &#8220;Hingle McCringleberry&#8221; double pump celebration. In both cases, they were laughed off as harmless fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But when Cam Newton celebrated, he was vilified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5oUP3SvqNvU\">Vonn Miller did the &#8220;Hingle McCringleberry,&#8221;<\/a> he was fined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There always seems to be a hypocritical rule that allows white people to celebrate, even when it causes damage. In those cases, the behavior is excused through dismissive words and descriptions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet that same hypocrisy punishes Black celebrations through coded language and venomous attacks. That hypocrisy was on display again in Dallas at the women&#8217;s championship game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To be clear, neither Clark nor Reese did anything wrong or malicious. We all know this is part of the game, regardless of gender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the ugliness of the aftermath, and not the antics themselves, that ruins the game. Especially when its uninformed rhetoric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The funniest part is that none of the Iowa players, including Clark, said anything about it. And you know why? Because it wasn&#8217;t racist or demeaning. It was simply part of the game and the Hawkeyes had to accept it as they lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Angel even explained why she did it when she didn&#8217;t need to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cI don\u2019t take disrespect lightly\u201d<br><br>Angel Reese does not appear to be a fan of Caitlin Clark. <br><br> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/g4xCzhypeC\">pic.twitter.com\/g4xCzhypeC<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Barstool Sports (@barstoolsports) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/barstoolsports\/status\/1642670988507721732?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 2, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Caitlin Clark is a hell of a player for sure,&#8221; exclaimed Reese. &#8220;But I don&#8217;t take disrespect lightly and she disrespected Alexis [Morris] and my girls [South Carolina].
