Before we start with questions I just want to address what is going on with AT? Aren't you Caitlin Clarks coach? Why in the world would you stick up for the player that abused your super star and generational talent? They didn't even ask you about AT and why did not one ask you about Clark? Just weird.

I am baffled at why none of these reporters are asking her if CC is okay? Anyone checked on her? What about her mental health? Just mind boggling to me that the right questions are just never asked!!!!!

@AnnieCostabile Unacceptable for coach not to support her players. Trade CC and Sophie to a team that supports them.

I'm waiting for her statement... "I've seen the video and the WNBA was correct is giving AT a flagrant 2 foul and suspension. There is no place for what AT did on the court to Caitlin. All players, including our own, deserve protection from unnecessary & aggressive plays.

Fuck Stephanie White. Fire her. Protect CC. Fix the officiating. AT is a jealous, black, lesbian thug and at Whitney for her success. Fuck AT. She knows she did it intentionally. We are tired of the “homophobia and racism” bullshit. Just maybe if they didn’t knock CC down in nonbasketball playe like Chennedy and Mabrey. Or CC didn’t get the disproportionate flagrants. Angel accused Fever fans of racism. Didn’t happen. Wasn’t true. But that was the story. Not the correction. White doesn’t want the heterosexual to elevate to the goat. Period. She wouldn’t sub her out three minutes into the game when she was on fire. Sorry Steph. The fans know. And we are done spending money a league that allows this.

She's right, but when MAGA Congress Memebers are also using it to drive racism and hate its not just online trolling

“Online”? Bih you sit on the sidelines every game listening to the racism from Fever fans and limiting their bullshit to “online”. It’ll continue because there’s always someone like her to enable it.

Imagine what they would all be saying if this was the image circulating across the internet this week. Cities would be burning.

why isn't she addressing the hate Myisha Hines-Allen received, you know worry about her own team instead of a person that gave your star player serious injury

I don’t even need to listen to this dullard speak to know that she uttered some mealy-mouthed garbage in support of that weirdo Thomas and chastising fans. This league is retarded.

Did coach White ever said anything publicly about Sophie getting online and real life threats and even being physical stalked for months? Threats and egregious slurs by WNBA fans. Did she or she didn't?

Absolutely no support for her own player! She sees what Caitlin goes through on a daily basis and I'm sure is privy to a lot of nasty shit. God I hate this franchise and this woman so much!

It is an activist league, they will always defend the oppressor. We see it all over America right now. Poor poor oppressor.

Alyssa Thomas isn't a victim she's a thug. Caitlin Clark is the victim. This league needs to be shutdown. To many retards, to many bad basketball players. Wokeness is destroying the league

Does all this talk include Caitlin Clark? I can’t tell by Stephanie Whites speech. I didn’t hear it, did you?

I want proof of death threats. Since death threats are a federal and state crime, it should be easy for the FBI to find and prosecute, especially if they’re online threats. The league should request that, then announce the arrests. I’ll wait.

@StephanieWhite didn't say if her @WNBA included supporting @IndianaFever's CC in such a shallow fashion. She seemed more interested in elevating her old CT thug who put fist to throat of league's biggest drawing card on heels of her loving partner also aiming to hurt her. @espnW

I got to say the abuser playing the victim is genius in this fake activist league. See how quick the narrative shifted from AT being dirty to racist online trolls.

Why does the wnba keep doing this nonsense and playing into these Jussie Smollet events? Alyssa Smollet should file a police report not cry to the media if she’s telling the truth

Anyone shocked she's backing one of the players she instructed to beat up Caitlin Clark her rookie year while coaching the Sun? CC for your agent already. @erinkane is useless. Get someone powerful that will put a stop to this BS.

All of that is great BUT talk about what she said about the incident with CC . Protect your player .

@StephanieWhite Is it too much to ask that you actually do your job and protect your players? @CaitlinClark has an incredible gift and deserves to chase her basketball dreams safely — not risking injury or worse. Families watching at home should not have to see a disgusting chokehold like the one Alyssa Thomas (@athomas_25) put on Caitlin’s neck during a live game. For the WNBA to allow this kind of thuggish behavior is an embarrassment to the league and our country — especially in one of the most important years in America. Clean it up and protect the players.

I am season ticket holder. I’ve watched and supported the wnba from the beginning. I know stephanie White’s dad. Never met her. But she’s gotta go. This is unacceptable for an HC to not defend her own player. Ideology rules this league

It's a damn shame we couldn't hold @OfficialNBARefs accountable in real time this season. Look at where it's gotten us. It took a post-presser for anybody to wake up.

Already backing out from what she said before. The cheap shots no longer cheap? Fist on neck is a normal basketball play now? Shame on you @StephanieWhite and @IndianaFever organization.

There is no room for racism. There is no room for AT hurting stars with her reckless play. Racism is worse. Don’t go to social network. WNBA hold players accountable. These are adults. I go back and forth with feelings in Steph. Right now I would like her fired. 99.99999999% of Fever fans are awesome. This is way double standard. Clark takes on more social aggression than anyone. She handles it with professionalism and class. Ramble done.

Just when you thought the wnba couldn't possibly get anymore cartoonishly amateurish, Stephanie White comes out with a "hold my beer" moment, blaming the fans for buying their shit product. Caitlin needs to sign with a different league and bring the revenue there.
