crying about the FAN'S SPENDING MONEY??? keep your whiny ,NBA subsidized ,elitest nose out of my wallet. even when fan's put money in thier pocket ,they STILL cry!!!
I knew of one by name B.G and only because she got her ass locked up in Russia and a couple of players from the past. I knew Becky Hammond only because she played for the San Antonio Stars and Pop hired her after her career ended as a player. Honestly WNBA was never a hot topic until Clark. I’m sure there’s been some great players in the past, but nobody knows who they are. Oh and I’ve heard of Sue Bird and that’s it.
These black players obviously don’t know how to win friends and influence people-it’s like they are kindergartners fighting for a toy. It’s nuts, and I’ll only watch Caitlin.
A’ja left South Carolina in 2018 - six years ago! Why wait six years to retire a jersey? Everything A’ja does just makes her more and more unlikable, yet misguided Nike keeps giving her more and more money!
Nike is not in good financial shape. Saw they lost 33 million, with 25 million in revenue (quarter) last time I looked, after lunch, the stock was down $2. I will not ever buy a Nike product, even with Clark attached to it.
I watched WNBA years ago. Support women's sports. yeah. Started again this year because of Clark and found other players I really like, i.e. the Lynx and Collier. So there's that.
I do because she needs Caltin Clark to win 🏆 the next 7 or definitely 11Wnba Championship rings 💍 with Kelsey plum, Lexie Brown, Tina Charles, Angel Reese, Aliyah Boston, Aneesah Morrow, Ajsa Sivka and Either Chenndy Carter or Lexie Hull? From 2025 to 2036?
CC doesn't deserve the disrespect she's getting, respect the woman already! I wish all the disrespect your giving this young lady brings monster karma on all yall jealous haters! To all the WNBA that do show respect, your the classy ones! Aja Wilson if anyone's ruining your career it's you and your lack of class!
another thing is....who had actually heard of A'ja before Caitlin joined the WNBA.....Caitlin is so good and so influential....the NBA want some of her magic...
Why did Aja's school wait until this year to retire her jersey. How long has she been with the wnba? It sounds like they're only doing it now because Caitlin's school is doing it.
@charbenz2768: Just like Aja's Nike Deal....Aja Wilson follows what Caitlin does and rides Caitlin's lead....riding Caitlin's coattails....In REALITY , nobody had ever heard of Aja Wilson until Caitlin Clark joined the WNBA, and few are going to care about Aja Wilson's College retiring her jersey.
It's unbelievable how petty jealous women act. Why did it take so many yrs for them to retire her number, they've only had 6 yrs to do it. Suddenly now on the same date, sounds like someone wanted to cause controversy.
Some are saying Aja had her planning first never heard of Aja’s jersey 6 years later after graduating!! OMG how funny! 😂 If they are so concerned Aja not getting her ALL attention that day they can wait another 6 years and plan again! 😂
The way Aj has been trying to one up. more likely they picked the date just to voice complaints. Jr high actions once more. Where have the adults gone ?
I appreciate your report and perspective. However, it is clear to me that A'ja's camp came to this date way after it was public knowledge that the Fever had announced theirs. The Fever notified the WNBA before scheduling was set that they would like to have a home game on that date to celebrate. It wasn't until later that A'ja's camp decided to use the same strategy and date and then complain about the Fever. It was A'ja's group that created the conflict late in the game and then stirred the pot. A'ja and her team are complainers and I think the situation with jersey sales and event ticket sales clearly show that potential A'ja and many past A'ja fans are tired of her negativeness, blaming, racist comments, and that the majority of Fever fans are there because Caitlin takes the high road and isn't blaming others for her failures when she make them. She takes responsibility. A'ja's always looking to blame others for her inferior performance in the playoffs. It boils down to What have you done lately, not last year or the years before. That's "has been." Also, Caitlin and A'ja have the same list of records to hold and break. Last year, Caitlin broke and held at least 62 of them. How many does A'ja hold and how many did she add in 2024? I'll bet A'ja doesn't come close in 2024 even with the WNBA purposefully scheduling the worst team in 2024 to start a tough on the road schedule. That back fired in the long run and Caitlin didn't need three other Olympians on her team to win.
they could have retired Wilson years ago just petty jealousy unlikeable. I knew Caitlin Clark before she entered the Wmba she had always put butts in seats eyes on tv also helped and supported the community cc is Iowa's best supporter
If you want to call disrespect, then ajas camp totally disrespected CC by picking the same day. CCs jersey retirement has been in the plans for months. It really doesn’t matter though, they both have totally different fan bases. For the price difference, $64.00 for ajas and $1000.00 for CCs, they don’t set the price. aja I’m sure will bring on the water works at her ceremony, while CC will raise up her team. One is me, me, me......the other is team, team, team. Why did ajas team wait 6 years to retire hers? Perhaps because CC was getting hers retired right after she left college 🤔 gotta wonder.
It's sad when these WNBA women blame someone else for there screwed up carreer. They can't take the pressure let alone the knowledge that they were never in the game
A'ja is crap...typical mundane 2 dimensional player with nothing original to offer...where as Caitlin is like a magician who casts spells on the basket ball...NO comparison..
On paper, Aja's team is one of the most talented in the league. Not to mention, A'ja is regarded as one of the most physically imposing athletes in the WNBA. Yet she disappeared when her team needed her in their playoff run. Meanwhile, Caitlin took a team that was widely regarded as talented underachievers and got them to believe in them selves and reach their potential.
All wilson has too do is what clark ia doing its really simple its called..... PLAY THE GAME...... thats the differnce between the two players wake up wilson just play ur game let your actions of game play do ur talking Hello....its not hard too figure that out.
Clark's jersey retirement was planned before that of Aja. Also, Aja left South Carolina six years earlier and it seems that the South Carolina jersey retirement was to compete with Clark's.
CC fans are going to Iowa and Aja fans are going to South Carolina. Grow up people 1000 miles apart and believe me I will not be watching Aja but CC!! Go CC!! Congradulations!! ❤
So whatever school wilson went to decides, 6 years later, to retire her jersey on the same day as Caitlin Clark. That is perfect, they say, we can ride on the monster wave that Clarks' retirement festivities will create! One big difference is in order to get any attendance at wilsons, we better have cheap tickets ($64.00) to try to fill the arena! Clarks tickets ($1000.00) are almost sold out! You be the judge who is the childish one here! By the way, Iowa had this scheduled months before they even decided to do wilson.
South Carolina should just go ahead and do it.Theres the old era of Aja and the new era of Clark There’s no reason they both can’t celebrate the same day but remember that Clark’s was planned way ahead of Aja’s.
Sorry! I had never ever heard of A'ja Wilson until CC started playing in WNBA, and even then, it was more than half a season to know who she was. CC is the one reason why I found out there was a WNBA in the first place.
some legend and hero. YEAH, WE WILL GET AROUND TO RETIREING YOUR JERSEY. SOMETIME. WHO ARE YOU AGAIN?? Wilson's school disrespected her for waiting so long, not CC.
I am from the Philippines. What I know #22 is Caitlin Clark. I did not know that A'ja is also a #22. Take note for 6 years USC did not retire A'ja jersey, they will do so only when Iowa CC22 will be retiring her jersey this coming "2.2."2025. Also, did you know that there is an ESPN promotion coverage of CC22 during her Iowa days? Not a single second was A'ja name mentioned. Lastly, ticket prices on CC22 cheapest price to see is $500+ while A'ja is only $64. What a joke people.
Aja Wilson has been out college several years, so why has she not requested her jersey be retired on any of the previous years before? After her first year, CC's #22 has become one of the most famous number in the WNBA? Didn't it occur to Aja W. or anyone else that after her first year CC and or her Iowa College would do what they are doing on February 2, 2025?
when you constantly keep comparing your CAREER to a ROOKIE'S first season, maybe YOU are not as popular as you think. a grown woman, MVP and still whining about a 22 year old 1st year, very sad.
I have never heard of A'ja Wilson before Clayton Clark. Clayton Clark is hands down the best and greatest WNBA player. She will win the MVP in 2025, 2026, 2027, etc. and the WNBA will be just as popular as the NBA! Stop being a racist A'ja Wilson and enjoy your newfound fame, compliments of Clayton Clark.
If you look at the history of the players that resent Caitlyn is actually due to their assaulting racist hatred towards her. Caitlyn has worked hard on her skills to be one of the Elite. She earned her respect by being good hearted and Unselfish and compassionate not only to her fans , but also to others . Others that seek the spotlight seem to feel that they're entitled to it and are owed. Caitlyns light shines from within and she asks no one for any type of favoritism nor entitlement. Others will do whatever they can to disrupt her career plans as we can all see by the negative comments and attacks. I for one will not respect those lest it is earned by their walk matching their actions as Caitlyn has. I believe that aja found out the Fevers plan to retire #22 and planned to create kaos by trying to derail those plans on 02/02/2025 strictly out of vindictiveness.
The Iowa Hawkeyes have retired three jerseys in honor of the women's program. So fast? Not at all - Megan Gustafson (2015-2019), jersey no 10 was retired 2020; Michelle Edwards (1985-1988) jersey no 30 was retired 1990. The most recent being Caitlin Clark (2020-2024) jersey no 22 retired in 2025. Iowa University is well within it’s routine timings in my view For USC this is from their practice and regulations - "By policy, there is a five-year waiting period after a former Gamecock student-athlete’s last final season of participation before their jersey can be considered for retirement." So they acting within their frame, should and should not have to bring in matters at Iowa.. For example - Tiffany Mitchell (2012-2016) jersey no 25 was retired at Williams-Brice Stadium in 2023
Rather than fighting over this, WNBA would benefit more by having a nationality televised combined ceremony. Try actually cooperating and celebrate both athletes.
@@ernestamboe6381 it has nothing to do with WNBA! It is about retiring their college jerseys. Just think it is funny Aja had to wait six years or is this for spite?
Aja is so disrespectful. CC scored the most points EVER in the NCAA...Men and Women. Then she had arguably the best rookie season ever in the NCAA. That is why she won the Time award. Get over it and go do your thing in South Carolina 6 years after you graduated. Who is acting PRIVILEGED?
I don't see the problem. Caitlin will be in Iowa, Aja in S Carolina. The laughable difference in the amount people are willing to pay to see it happen is the funny part.
Aja’s Marketing Team is hard pressed to appeased her paranoia of Caitlin. Aja’s days of putting her weight around is over. She has nothing more to offer, but sour griping and undeserved entitlement.
funny thing is, 6 or 7 even 8 year's ago i dont recall hearing any hype about Wilson or her team. or her being a overly outstanding player. plus ,WHAT COLLEGE RECORD'S???
South Carolina should had retired AJa Wilson jersey long time ago. Look it only takes a yr to retire a jersey if u are that great. The hell with AJa Wilson.
Wilson needs to stop the BS! Guess what? When Jordan came into the NBA, both Bird and Magic were playing in the league as well. Wilson would NEVER get $1000 ticket sale for her display, be mad, who cares
Maybe I'm just dumb, but it seems to me that CC plus Iowa fans and AW plus South Carolina fans aren't the same people, so why can't they have the ceremonies on the same day? The reasons why the two jerseys are being retired aren't even the same, other than that it's honoring a former player So maybe the different fanbases should just stop arguing and enjoy honoring their stars
Like big macUSA said ... give me a break 😂crying about bullshit. Everybody who Kaitlyn was gonna do it first and the W.NBA just wants to push the conflicts in controversies that make it more popular.It's a fcking joke😂😂😂 In most of you, people fall for it.Which makes it even funnier
A'ja - if there is an award for cry bully of the year - you win, hands down. Face it, the only reason USC is retiring your number this year is because Iowa is retiring CCs number. If they wanted to do it, what took so long, 8 years? Dawn Staley got out in front of it barely. USC had to know that Iowa had this already planned to do this at a home game on 2-2-25. It's not unlike when the Patriots planned to retire Brady's number on 6-12-24 6 for the number of Super Bowl wins and 12 for TB12 himself. Clark is number 22 - A'ja also wears 22 as it turns out. Deal with it or whine about it for the next 2 and a half months - you've already got the cry bully award all locked up but go ahead and WAH all you want.
Wilson is destroying her career all on her own with no help from anyone. It’s all Aja. If she would shut up and work harder on her game and personality then the awards will happen just like they are happening with CC.
There is Iowa's "the #22", and then there is another 22 somewhere sonehow :D CC's 22 is the only one that really matters. Like MJ's 23 is the only one that really matters
AJA could've had her jersey retired on February 2nd, 2022!!! Which would've made more sense. But, because Catlin is having hers retired now AJA just to jump on this date as well.. BIG SURPRISE!!!!!
A'ja's routine response seems to be, whatever you have, Caitlin, I want it. Whatever I have, keep your hands off it. Caitlin is the best. A'ja is an also ran.
Hey A'ja, you are a ball hog. Your assists average per game is 2.2 per game. Your rebounds are average, your 3pt shots are almost non-existent and then you make 1 out of 3. Your free throw percentage is terrible for a shooting guard - 81%. I don't know why you are the MVP.
I can see why A'ja is steamed. The twelve people who were going to watch A'ja's Jersey get retired will probably go to see Caitlin Clark's Jersey retired instead. ;-)
This unnecessary created invented intentional drama will drive millions of potential fans right back out . This is just the beginning of the classic wnba "WTF do you want " style of entertainment. Im wrestling the bad guy is just as important as the good guy. The wnba starts everything from the bad guy stance. Its exhausting and only gonna get worse. The league can't live without hate. So let it die. Ud rather not watch at all than be forced to endure all this absolute bullshit just to be a fan. The weak minded easily influenced people that thrive on imaginary controversy will love it. But sane rational humans will reject the entire product because of the decay rot corruption and poison that spoils any joy associated with it. If its this rotten , it's unfit for human consumption and shouldn't be on any menu. But those whome consume decay corruption and poison will love it.
What is even better Caitlin Clark #22 jersey retire will be televised on Fox. While aja Wilson retire #22 WILL NOT BE TELEVISED. LOLOLOLOLOL. I bet Caitlin Clark will he at least 22 million people watching. Mark my words. Plus Caitlin will put another 3 to 5 million in revenue in iowa ....... Who is the greatest mvp CAITLIN CLARK
They are 1000 miles apart. Not same fan base. So who cares. And yes Wilson could have retired the jersey years ago. But wasnt no controversy to go with it. But now she mad. Get over your pettiness and jealously. Grow rhe heck up. Thats all.
I'm sorry, but until CC22 came along, I had never heard of a'ja wilson or any other wmba player
That was Dan Patrick's and Stephen A's point. Until CC NOBODY KNEW ANY PLAYERS IN THE WNBA, unless you were a diehard fan.
crying about the FAN'S SPENDING MONEY??? keep your whiny ,NBA subsidized ,elitest nose out of my wallet. even when fan's put money in thier pocket ,they STILL cry!!!
I knew of one by name B.G and only because she got her ass locked up in Russia and a couple of players from the past. I knew Becky Hammond only because she played for the San Antonio Stars and Pop hired her after her career ended as a player. Honestly WNBA was never a hot topic until Clark. I’m sure there’s been some great players in the past, but nobody knows who they are. Oh and I’ve heard of Sue Bird and that’s it.
These black players obviously don’t know how to win friends and influence people-it’s like they are kindergartners fighting for a toy. It’s nuts, and I’ll only watch Caitlin.
Oh, wow! Someone is throwing race into the mix.
A’ja left South Carolina in 2018 - six years ago! Why wait six years to retire a jersey? Everything A’ja does just makes her more and more unlikable, yet misguided Nike keeps giving her more and more money!
Nike is not in good financial shape. Saw they lost 33 million, with 25 million in revenue (quarter) last time I looked, after lunch, the stock was down $2. I will not ever buy a Nike product, even with Clark attached to it.
Good question! Iowa always does year after. Just like Megan! Wilson’s name is Whiner by the way. She is as bad as MeMe!
Thank you for saying what I was going to post
I have not bought a Nike product since colon kaepernick escapade, nor will I ever❤❤❤!
There's no such thing as bad publicity.
I don't even know who's Aja Wilson until early this year, because Caitlin Clark, I watched WNBA.
I watched WNBA years ago. Support women's sports. yeah. Started again this year because of Clark and found other players I really like, i.e. the Lynx and Collier. So there's that.
Who cares about Aja Wilson??
Who's that?😅
How many have heard of Wilson before CC joined the league?
I do because she needs Caltin Clark to win 🏆 the next 7 or definitely 11Wnba Championship rings 💍 with Kelsey plum, Lexie Brown, Tina Charles, Angel Reese, Aliyah Boston, Aneesah Morrow, Ajsa Sivka and Either Chenndy Carter or Lexie Hull? From 2025 to 2036?
"respect for WNBA history" ... what history? Before Clark most people didn't know they existed.
No joke.! I had forgotten they even existed !! LOL
CC doesn't deserve the disrespect she's getting, respect the woman already! I wish all the disrespect your giving this young lady brings monster karma on all yall jealous haters! To all the WNBA that do show respect, your the classy ones! Aja Wilson if anyone's ruining your career it's you and your lack of class!
another thing is....who had actually heard of A'ja before Caitlin joined the WNBA.....Caitlin is so good and so influential....the NBA want some of her magic...
Aja's team wanted to sabotage Caitlin's day and cause controversy
I do not see the problem , Two states ,two places . Iowa planned first ! Grow up .
A'ja is incapable of growing up. She will perpetually be an annoying whiney child.
Wilson's camp knows that CC's # retirement ceremony is going to get the greater media attention. That's why they're bent.
Why did Aja's school wait until this year to retire her jersey. How long has she been with the wnba? It sounds like they're only doing it now because Caitlin's school is doing it.

A'ja is way too insecure & jealous. Caitlin Clark is a super star who has brought WNBA back to life , she has made the W.N.B.A popular for a change.
got to love the story showing only Clark in the background for the entire story.
It's not because of jersey number...it's Groundhog Day! Like when CC shoots 3 pointers. It seems like the same thing repeating over and over.
Sorry! I had never ever heard of A'ja Wilson until CC started playing in WNBA, and even then, it was more than half a season to know who she was. CC is the one reason why I found out there was a WNBA in the first place.

I am from the Philippines. What I know #22 is Caitlin Clark. I did not know that A'ja is also a #22.

When greatness comes along, mediocrity takes a back seat
Why isn’t Aja event on a game day
Only in the WNBA , players worry more about what the other players have then the sport itself.
A'JA making millions of dollars and she still complains typical
when you constantly keep comparing your CAREER to a ROOKIE'S first season, maybe YOU are not as popular as you think. a grown woman, MVP and still whining about a 22 year old 1st year, very sad.
I have never heard of A'ja Wilson before Clayton Clark. Clayton Clark is hands down the best and greatest WNBA player. She will win the MVP in 2025, 2026, 2027, etc. and the WNBA will be just as popular as the NBA!
Stop being a racist A'ja Wilson and enjoy your newfound fame, compliments of Clayton Clark.
If you look at the history of the players that resent Caitlyn is actually due to their assaulting racist hatred towards her. Caitlyn has worked hard on her skills to be one of the Elite.

Wilson 6yrs. Iowa next yrs. Wilson deal seems funny

Don't they know the difference between oldschool and newschool it is at least a decade
I don't see the problem. Caitlin will be in Iowa, Aja in S Carolina. The laughable difference in the amount people are willing to pay to see it happen is the funny part.
Why is it a problem. One jersey retirement should have no impact on the other.
Fans! Stop all this crap. Just celebrate both Aja's and Caitlin's achievements.
If it wasn’t for C Clark, I still wouldn’t be watching the WMBA.!
WHAT GRADE ARE WE IN . HURT FEELINGS REALLY
Aja’s Marketing Team is hard pressed to appeased her paranoia of Caitlin. Aja’s days of putting her weight around is over. She has nothing more to offer, but sour griping and undeserved entitlement.
funny thing is, 6 or 7 even 8 year's ago i dont recall hearing any hype about Wilson or her team. or her being a overly outstanding player. plus ,WHAT COLLEGE RECORD'S???
They waited 6 yrs to retire Wilson’s college Jersey. This is pointless. Needless drama. Go support your player of choice and be quiet about the other.
I have not bought a Nike product sense the Kappernet escapade nor will I ever❤❤❤!

South Carolina should had retired AJa Wilson jersey long time ago. Look it only takes a yr to retire a jersey if u are that great. The hell with AJa Wilson.
Wilson needs to stop the BS! Guess what? When Jordan came into the NBA, both Bird and Magic were playing in the league as well. Wilson would NEVER get $1000 ticket sale for her display, be mad, who cares
Maybe I'm just dumb, but it seems to me that CC plus Iowa fans and AW plus South Carolina fans aren't the same people, so why can't they have the ceremonies on the same day?
The reasons why the two jerseys are being retired aren't even the same, other than that it's honoring a former player
So maybe the different fanbases should just stop arguing and enjoy honoring their stars
Like big macUSA said ... give me a break 😂crying about bullshit. Everybody who Kaitlyn was gonna do it first and the W.NBA just wants to push the conflicts in controversies that make it more popular.It's a fcking joke😂😂😂 In most of you, people fall for it.Which makes it even funnier
A'ja - if there is an award for cry bully of the year - you win, hands down. Face it, the only reason USC is retiring your number this year is because Iowa is retiring CCs number. If they wanted to do it, what took so long, 8 years? Dawn Staley got out in front of it barely. USC had to know that Iowa had this already planned to do this at a home game on 2-2-25. It's not unlike when the Patriots planned to retire Brady's number on 6-12-24 6 for the number of Super Bowl wins and 12 for TB12 himself. Clark is number 22 - A'ja also wears 22 as it turns out. Deal with it or whine about it for the next 2 and a half months - you've already got the cry bully award all locked up but go ahead and WAH all you want.
Wilson is destroying her career all on her own with no help from anyone. It’s all Aja. If she would shut up and work harder on her game and personality then the awards will happen just like they are happening with CC.
Where is her championship? Stupid. !!!!
whose ceremony is more likely that Steph, Shaq, Lebron, Bird, Jordan or Gronk might show up at?
There is Iowa's "the #22", and then there is another 22 somewhere sonehow :D CC's 22 is the only one that really matters. Like MJ's 23 is the only one that really matters
CC is shaking everyone and this haters/players do everything she does
AJA could've had her jersey retired on February 2nd, 2022!!!
Which would've made more sense.
But, because Catlin is having hers retired now AJA just to jump on this date as well.. BIG SURPRISE!!!!!
good point on the date issue. guesse SC didnt think it important enough then, so why now??
Wilson is just petty and unlikable! I say this as a black man!
Men And women should be pick for players in the Olympics picks from college students. Right now it's being abused
Caitlin Clark MVP 2025,2026, 2027,2028,2029.
Wilson wears 22? Oops my bad.
The only other 22 I know is Taylor Swift.
A'ja's routine response seems to be, whatever you have, Caitlin, I want it. Whatever I have, keep your hands off it. Caitlin is the best. A'ja is an also ran.
Aja has a statue in front of Colonial Life Arena. I love CC. BS clip though. 😊
Not too ppl know about Aja Wilson till CC coming to the well fare league!
What issue ? Iowa planned it first. End of story !
It’s not it cuz the time of retire of the jersey! Somebody is going crying over the time line too !
Wilson is a jealous and bitter person. She needs professional help.
Hey A'ja, you are a ball hog. Your assists average per game is 2.2 per game. Your rebounds are average, your 3pt shots are almost non-existent and then you make 1 out of 3. Your free throw percentage is terrible for a shooting guard - 81%. I don't know why you are the MVP.
If CC were not to play in the Whaaanba in 2025 it would return to the afterthought it has been for 25 years.
like Wilson and her jersey to SC. an after thought.
Will Wicked Wilson announce her "retirement" on Feb 2? Or will she double down on her "irrelevant" status?
Funny they waited 10 years to retire A'ja s jersey. It's not the date its the year. What suddenly made them decide to do it tnis year?
Who is Wilson ??? Never heard of him !!! The only Wilson I know is the Wilson sports company !!!
I can see why A'ja is steamed. The twelve people who were going to watch A'ja's Jersey get retired will probably go to see Caitlin Clark's Jersey retired instead. ;-)
Clark upholds all black players . At keast Wilson doesn't apologize for being black.
@@davidcmather it she doesn’t have players even that like her. That’s why her shoes just sit hardly anyone wants them.
This unnecessary created invented intentional drama will drive millions of potential fans right back out . This is just the beginning of the classic wnba "WTF do you want " style of entertainment. Im wrestling the bad guy is just as important as the good guy. The wnba starts everything from the bad guy stance. Its exhausting and only gonna get worse. The league can't live without hate. So let it die. Ud rather not watch at all than be forced to endure all this absolute bullshit just to be a fan. The weak minded easily influenced people that thrive on imaginary controversy will love it. But sane rational humans will reject the entire product because of the decay rot corruption and poison that spoils any joy associated with it. If its this rotten , it's unfit for human consumption and shouldn't be on any menu. But those whome consume decay corruption and poison will love it.
Aja!!!
You were great until Caitlin redefined what a great player really should be!!!!!
Think 22
Think Caitlin Clark
22... Aja who??
A'ja is more of a pain in the ass all the time
What is even better Caitlin Clark #22 jersey retire will be televised on Fox. While aja Wilson retire #22 WILL NOT BE TELEVISED. LOLOLOLOLOL. I bet Caitlin Clark will he at least 22 million people watching. Mark my words. Plus Caitlin will put another 3 to 5 million in revenue in iowa ....... Who is the greatest mvp CAITLIN CLARK
They are 1000 miles apart. Not same fan base. So who cares. And yes Wilson could have retired the jersey years ago. But wasnt no controversy to go with it. But now she mad. Get over your pettiness and jealously. Grow rhe heck up. Thats all.
Another Kat Fight that means absolutely nothing! 🙀😿🐈😾😹
Nike just do it
Aja, quick crying man came first with the shoe and now this. Come on, grow up, quit acting like a child.
CC mvp 2025 aja 4th place
