    I'm pretty much with you. Taking offense at every perceived little slight of Caitlin is tiresome and comes off pretty petty. If I were of a mind to complain about it I think I would want to know first how are other team's games being promoted. Is it only via star power or do they also...

    I wasn't clear, I should have used a different word than "quibbling." Was referring to the White, January, Clark thingy. Sophie has to always be an Indiana fan favorite for being an enforcer in addition to her game and personality. Lots to like.

    As far as the quibbling goes I think it was just about Caitlin's defensive assignment on the previous play. It happens, no biggie, imo. Caitlin's last triple-double was a 20-10-10. Barely got it. Obviously it's the last two digits that are hard to get to 10 or more at the same time. So when...

    It's almost as if I didn't say "Stephanie White CERTAINLY (emphasis added) has other considerations than Caitlin's line" and yeah, I think a stat would likely be the last thing. Of course, of course, of course it's all dependent on Caitlin's health and how she was feeling. I understand shutting...

    Looks like I'm perhaps one of the few who are with you on this one. Caitlin only played 24 minutes. I know SW has other considerations certainly than Caitlin's line, but I would have liked to see Caitlin play, say, 5 more minutes. If she was still three away at that point give her the hook...

    How can this happen? Is Mitchell trying to defend Amoore from making a basket on either end? From here all Amoore had to do is make a casual spin and was virtually straight line to the bucket. Edit to add: if, given the time on the clock, they were trying to set up a trap that then was...

    This is what my friend Google AI told me about a slightly tipped pass. I think Caitlin got screwed out of both assists. There should be an appeals process if the scorer gets shat blatantly wrong, imo. But ... I'm sure there's not cuz that would make too much sense. Yes, the passer is usually...

    I liked the fact that after the game she said she deserved that tech. Shows some humility and self-awareness. Like the players I guess my viewership game is a little rusty too. I immediately feared that was her third foul, lol.

    Is it that obvious?!! Caitlin will push off, and call me an overzealous CC fan here, but I think a lot of that is hand fighting when the defender is already reaching in or trying to impede her with their arms. But Caitlin can improve here and perhaps will with a quicker whistle. What I call...

    And "exactly" right back to you. The Fever don't play the bully-ball game trying to initiate the contact, instead they end up having to absorb it in disproportionate amounts when there is no whistle. It seems Boston over time has tried to be more physical on offense but I don't think that was...

    It sure seemed like Caitlin sat a lot last night but she did end up with 31 minutes so that's good. Most on the team, fwiw. I understand she got herself her own topnotch trainer so let's hope she can continue on healthy. All the foul calls didn't bother me, keeping in mind the players will have...

    Don't let the hateful idiots ruin it for you! Just avoid X for any Fever or Caitlin content. Watch highlights somewhere else and don't read the comments. Caitlin, even while struggling from three, still plays a very skillful and entertaining game as she did tonight. And you are spot on. Ever...

    Caitlin and Kelsey both shot 9-17, not bad but as mentioned neither we good from three-point range, especially Caitlin ... ouch. But Caitlin did lead the team in scoring with 24 and had 9 assists. Just hit a couple more and that's a monster game. But, ofc, that's been the hard part it seems for...

    I know the logo-3 is Caitlin's signature shot, but contrary to a popular commercial theme, maybe everything ISN'T easier from the logo. Kinda thinking I'd like to see Caitlin shoot closer to the arc for a spell to maybe help her get her groove on, and who couldn't use that, btw??? A lot of...
