Message: [QUOTE="WBBTakeover, post: 5005789, member: 13257"] I think it would be fair, if she were the main one doing the hyping. She's not. I think of Caitlin as a pawn right now. I know that she's an adult herself, but the actual adults are the ones using her for buzz and revenue. The actual adults are the ones disguising their "-isms" based criticisms of women's basketball (especially of those who dominate the sport by and large) as over-the-top praise of her (and I find that to be so cowardly and disgusting). The actual adults are the ones churning this hype machine into overdrive. Why no smoke for them? Meanwhile, you have this young woman from the Midwest who wants to hoop and be one of the all-time greats in the sport. Why is that a bad thing? [/QUOTE]
