Sports media is dead as anything useful.

We used to have sportswriters like Grantland Rice. Now we have hacks like Pearlman and others.

Obviously very different dynamics of risk to yourself and team with the disrespect/taunting.

I would never argue that they weren't different. I'm arguing that you cannot be upset with one and not the other, IMO, especially when citing class. Clark stopped playing the game in order to disrespect her opponent. That is decidedly not classy.

Your argument is weak also because Clark and her teammates also had 45 minutes (or however long a college game lasts) to win the game and ensure that she was never made to look foolish.

She just generated 620 post on CP. If that isn't GOAT shit for a woman's player I don't know what is.

That's what you think happened? She didn't "stop playing the game" dumbass. She dared her to shoot the 3 ball. She didn't stop playing altogether.

She was supposed to be playing defense. She chose not to simply to disrespect her opponent.

I understand that you've got her cock lodged in your throat, but it is disrespectful and far from classy.

Also, I would ****ing dunk on you, little bitch boy. Don't argue with me about the game of my people.

She didn't stop ****ing playing defense dumbass. She was sacrificing the 3 ball to stay in the paint.

I agreed that it was disrespectful, but you're just trying way too hard to make it sound as bad as what Angel did.

You wouldn't beat me in any sport or a fight pussy.

She made a point to wave her off and let everyone know that she didn't think homegirl could shoot.

Combine that with the "you can't see me" and other trash talk and I'd say she does not need anyone to come to her defense. She's been writing a lot of checks and this one bounced.

You're 6'0" and weigh 160 pounds. I would 100% demolish you in an Oklahoma drill.

This is exactly what an argument that they are the same thing looks like.

No idea what this is supposed to be. The taunting and ring finger thing was when the game was over. She had no risk of looking foolish on the court after this taunting and disrespect. So again, completely different circumstances.

This thread took another turn and I'm here for it.

If you've paid any attention to what I've been saying, I don't really even have much of an issue with what Angel did. I said it was borderline and clearly excessive. That's all.

What I refuse to do is pretend that Clark ever did the "same thing", because that's just objectively not true.

I even gave you that what she did was disrespectful, but to say she stopped playing altogether is ****ing reeruned. She was still defending the paint.
