The WNBA has a PROBLEM. A lot of people want Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese to be the Magic and Bird of the WNBA, but they can’t do that if one of the teams is terrible. The New York Liberty and the Minnesota Lynx are the 2 best teams in the WNBA. Both undefeated. Both loaded with Star players. The Lynx’s Napheesa Collier is the MVP favorite and vying to be the best player in the W. But the WNBA needs more from its two most talked about teams in the Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky. The Indiana Fever have been without their Superstar Guard Caitlin Clark for most of the season. Posting a 2-3 record without Clark shows the strength of the team, because with Clark on the court the Fever look like title contenders this year. Caitlin Clark makes her team better when she is on the court with scoring, passing and floor spacing. The Indiana Fever need her back playing to win and so does the WNBA to keep growing the game around her exciting play. The Chicago Sky on the other hand, have the WNBA’s 2nd most visible player in Angel Reese. Reese is healthy, has played every game and the Chicago Sky are terrible. That’s not an opinion, it’s a fact right now. The Sky have one of the worst records in the WNBA. Angel Reese, by her own admission, hasn’t been playing well and has one of the worst plus/minus in the entire league. For the WNBA to continue to grow its viewership at record pace it’s needs Caitlin Clark back on the court. That is clear with viewership, ticket sells and the excitement about the product on the court. The rivalry narrative between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese has become such a focal point that the WNBA needs the Chicago Sky to be good to keep people interested in that narrative. The WNBA needs Angel Reese to grow her on court game and lift her team to match the off court fame. Otherwise, the WNBA has to flip the narrative to focus on Caitlin Clark building rivalries against the Minnesota Lynx’s Napheesa Collier, Las Vegas Aces’ A’ja Wilson, New York Liberty’s Sabrina Ionescu, Atlanta Dream’s Allisha Gray or Rhyne Howard, Phonenix Mercury’s Satou Sabally and or the Washington Mystics’ Kiki Iriafen or Sonia Citron. The WNBA has no shortage of talented players, but rivalries are built on great competition. The Indiana Fever and Caitlin Clark vs the Chicago Sky and Angel Reese will always be a spectacle because of the connective tissue of the 2 players stories. But if the Chicago Sky and Angel Reese don’t improve, the WNBA should invest in building that connective tissue with its biggest star Caitlin Clark and its other star players on the court who are in the hunt for a championship. #CaitlinClark #AngelReese #WNBA #RG3 #Outtapocket #Basketball

WNBA NEWS: Indiana Fever head coach, Stephanie White — is going viral for all the wrong reasons, and rightfully so.., White is getting slammed by WNBA fans for neglecting to acknowledge Caitlin Clark’s efforts after an overtime defeat to the Washington Mystics… CC led a thrilling comeback in the fourth quarter against Washington on Friday night, May 15, hitting five three-pointers and scoring 17 of the team’s 31 points in the final period to erase a nine-point deficit and force overtime…. After the game, White was asked about Clark’s late-game surge that saw her put the team on her back in the fourth quarter to erase a nine-point deficit and force the extra period… While the question was specifically about Clark, White didn’t directly acknowledge her star player and instead chose to talk about the team… “Yeah Steph, what did you think of the rally that your team had in the fourth quarter, really when it comes to Caitlin? I think she had five threes in that fourth quarter, more than her first two games combined. So, just your thoughts on the resilience from her,” the reporter asked… “I thought our whole group showed resilience in that rally. We showed the ability to make tough shots. We had some really good time and score execution moments, offensively and defensively you know in those moments, we just have to have more of it consistently,” she responded… Fans are calling for the Fever to fire White.. White returned to the Fever head coaching position in 2024 after previously coaching the Fever from 2015 to 2016 seasons… During her coaching career, White has achieved notable success, including: 1. Leading the Indiana Fever to the WNBA Finals in her first season as head coach (2015) 2. Winning the WNBA Coach of the Year award in 2023… 3. Coaching the Connecticut Sun to consecutive playoff appearances in 2023 and 2024… Yet, there is no legitimate reason given as to why White has not had longevity as a head coach in the WNBA… Meanwhile, White is a proud member of the LBGT community, and she is in a same gender loving relationship with Lisa Salters, a Black woman — who works as a sideline reporter for ESPN… White has three children from a previous marriage, and she and Lisa Salters raise them together along with Salters' adopted son…They have been together since at least 2016…Story developing 👀👀

GREATER MANCHESTER POLICE HAD A PLAN FOR CHILD RAPE VICTIMS. IT INVOLVED DROWNING. Not literally. Relax. That would have required effort. A senior Greater Manchester Police officer reportedly told detective Maggie Oliver Maggie Oliver that the girls being groomed and raped across Rochdale "should have just been drowned at birth." Lovely stuff. Very professional. The kind of leadership culture you want running a child protection investigation. So they didn't drown them. They just closed the investigations instead. Much cleaner. Better for the budget. Operation Augusta. 2004. Twenty-six girls identified. Ninety-seven suspects. One detective doing the work. Then GMP pulled the plug, citing costs. Eight of those suspects went on to commit further serious sexual offences, including rape. The girls kept being abused. The files got buried. When Maggie Oliver came back and raised the alarm again during Operation Span, her bosses dismissed her as an "emotional woman." She had evidence of hundreds of perpetrators and countless victims beyond the nine men eventually convicted in 2012. They called it resolved. Fantastic result for British justice. She resigned. Faced potential prosecution under the Official Secrets Act. BBC eventually made Three Girls in 2017 because a detective did what a police force would not. January 2024. Independent review published. One hundred and seventy three pages confirming everything she said. Ninety-six men identified as still posing a risk to children, described as only a proportion of those involved. The review placed blame firmly on senior GMP officers throughout. Nobody went to prison for the cover-up. Nobody lost a pension. Maggie Oliver almost lost everything. But sure. She was the emotional one. BBCNews | BBCThree | The Guardian | The Times and Sunday Times | Channel 4 News Wikipedia and others.
