***CC22 and the Fever mega thread***
- Thread starter LetsGoHawks83
- Start date
The thing is, there has never been a trans m2f in the 30 years of the league. There are no trans m2f in women's college bball and I haven't heard of a top trans bb player in hs.
It's a non issue, but like everything else in the W it's a topic that keeps people arguing.
Who would have guessed a league full of women, run by women, would have so much pointless, needless drama?
No but that’s just a simpleminded understanding of the issue.
How White and Reeves answered this is perfect.
They thrive on it. They're activists who play basketball.
CC had an excellent game with the exception of her 3-ball - 19 points plus 10 assists was really impressive.
Lexie was getting beaten with back cuts to the rim numerous times today. That seems to be happening quite often of late.
Just finished watching the game. They lost, but I don't feel bad about the effort. They had an impressive run to get it very close at the end. They just needed a couple more shots to fall in the last minute. CC's distance shot wasn't there tonight, but otherwise she was solid. Miles was impressive in the first half. I expected she would do well because the Fever struggle against slashing guards. The Fever did pretty well to contain her in the second half. The Lynx just have too many other weapons. The mid-range queen, Courtney Williams, torched the Fever down the stretch. And, of course, the rebounding was a problem. This was always going to be a tough game to win. The Fever are still in great shape. They play the Lynx two more times, but they are the last two games of the season, so they might not even matter and one or both teams might be resting players.

I think the win streaks for both teams were a bit overrated.
Fever had won 5 in a row.
Lynx had won 9 in a row.
Both had beaten the 8th place Liberty and then simply been feasting on the bottom of the league.
The other 8 wins for MN:
9th: LA: 1 (who before today had lost 6 in a row)
11th PHX: 1
11th: Portland: 1
13th: Tor: 2
14th Conn: 1
15th: Seattle: 2
The other 4 wins for IND:
11th Portland: 1
14th Conn: 1
15th Seattle: 2
And ya gotta feel a little bad for Seattle...they had a 4 game stretch where they played the Lynx and the Fever 2 times each.

Look at the last few pages in this thread to see why it's a topic that keeps being brought up. Apparently some people can't get enough of the imagined controversy. Caitlin said nobody wants to talk about the basketball. That is very true, especially for a lot of so-called Caitlin fans- they love the divisive sideshow.
Are there currently transwomen asking to play in the league? Have there ever been? It's a non issue right now and all it's doing is creating a distraction for the Fever when they need to be really focused. Do you think Sophie's teammates are enjoying being constantly put on the spot by questions regarding her statement?
I haven't seen the show where Sophia made the statement so I don't know how the subject came up. She certainly has a right to her opinion and free speech, but everyone knows it's a hot button political issue. I have no problem with her stating her beliefs, but I wonder if she considered the media frenzy that would surround her team before she chose to make a public statement. It's not her fault that the media creates these circuses, but I believe Sophia is intelligent enough to know what was coming for the team if she went public with her thoughts.
So she's is supposed to just go along with the crazies, appease them so they don't raise hell. F that. She was asked by the way, she didn't just come out and say it. But that would have been fine with me if she had. Sic of crazy idiots thinking only their opinion counts
So pretend you don’t care until the time comes and then make a stand against it?
very brave.
it’s like 1+1=2. There is no stress on the issue. Dumb as hell to think it’s fine for men to play against women.
somebody should ask the Minnesota coach if she would welcome a male player on her team. Bet you butt the union don’t want men in the wnba. It would eventually become the G League.
14 year old boys beat the greatest women’s soccer team ever assembled. It matters and to play pretend with the nuts is ridiculous.
