A WNBA co-owner unleashed a truly insane rant about Caitlin Clark fans.
Clark fans have become a punching bag for people in the WNBA because it’s an indirect way to go after the young superstar. They’ve been accused of being racist, nasty, xenophobic, bigoted and just about every other insult you can think of.
Of course, there’s no evidence to suggest Caitlin Clark fans are any of those things, but that hasn’t stopped the accusation from continuing to roll in.
That now includes Atlanta Dream co-owner Renee Montgomery.

Derek Carr is doing his Patriotic duty by delivering on the field during the Presidential election years.
A new viral TikTok video shows just how dominant Carr has been – regardless of what team he’s played for every four years, which coincidentally has lined up when voters head to the polls to decide who our next Commander in Chief would be. 
Let’s break down the numbers:
Carr immediately started for the (Oakland) Raiders at the time after being drafted in the 2nd round of the 2014 draft.

Kirby Smart didn’t exactly draw a line in the sand when pressed on criminal issues within his program.
Bulldogs player Daniel Harris was arrested last week after allegedly driving 106 miles per hour in a 65 mph zone in Athens.
It’s just the latest incident in a long string of incidents under Smart’s watch, including the deaths of staff member Chandler LeCroy and player Devin Willock in a high-speed crash.

Leading up to their game against Ohio State on Saturday, Charles Huff spoke to reporters this week about his team taking the field against the talented Buckeyes.

Rob Gronkowski is one of the best tight ends in NFL history, but according to the man himself, Brock Bowers in Las Vegas may end up besting his all-time great career when it’s all said and done.
Bowers, who was drafted by the Raiders 13th overall in 2024, has gotten off to an electric start to his rookie campaign. The former Georgia star hauled in six catches for 58 yards in his debut against the Los Angeles Charges in Week 1 and followed that up in Week 2 by catching nine passes on nine targets for 98 yards.

UNCASVILLE, CONNECTICUT — It’s a Friday morning at the Mohegan Sun Arena, and A’ja Wilson and the rest of the Las Vegas Aces have just completed shootaround. They are a few hours away from a match-up against one of the WNBA’s premier teams — the Connecticut Sun — a game they would go on to win.
It hasn’t been a perfect season for the two-time defending champions; they hovered around .

With more games like Week 2, Kyler Murray could vie for both Comeback Player of the Year and MVP
