This is an interesting story even if you don’t know the difference between a free throw and the three-point line. It’s about much more than basketball. From Richard Truesdell at amgreatness.com:
Many believe that Team USA Basketball has made a huge mistake by not selecting superstar rookie Caitlin Clark to represent the USA at the Paris Olympic Games next month.
Once or twice in a generation, an athlete comes along who dominates and often redefines their sport. In the 1960s and 1970s, it was Muhammad Ali. In the 1980s, it was Martina Navratilova. In the 1990s, it was Michael Jordan. In the 2000s, it was Tom Brady and Michael Phelps. In the 2010s, it was Serena Williams. Clark now joins this roster as a generational talent.
Since the beginning of June, you can’t turn on any broadcast or online sports channel and not hear the name Caitlin Clark. Her presence dominates the airwaves and coverage has crossed over to the mainstream with non-sports media and even late-night comedy shows like Saturday Night Live featuring Clark. This is especially true in the wake of the decision by the USA Basketball selection committee to exclude her from the team going to the Olympics in Paris next month.
At this point, I think that even if she were selected as the first alternate, Clark should decline. It’s clearly obvious from their public statements that the closely-knit team of veterans doesn’t want her and the attention she will bring to the team’s effort to win a seventh straight Olympic gold medal. I think she should let her 22-year-old body heal during the Olympics, as she’s just gone from the NCAA Championship straight into the WNBA regular season.
She’s hotter than disaster girl (Zoe Roth) and the house burning down.
Regarding TD Tom Brady, he was a sixth round pick out of Michigan and didn’t start until Drew Bledsoe of Washington State got injured and traded.
Notice they haven’t done shit since TB left.
Team Under Satan’s Authority would rather lose than WIN?
That sounds about right, hope that cutting off your nose to spite your face works out for them.
Be proud of the Romania x Bulgaria Fundamental Transformation.
Yes we can!

Clarify-*Grown* Zoe Roth, Chesters get the chipper.
She sold the original print for $500,000!
Still a great country even with Long March termites and internal quislings who think it’s their reset way or the highway.
Travelers tip-If you are one of those who dreads a public toilet set and nature is calling on the road, tote a bedpan, flip it over on the seat, has to be one of the metal ones.
