This is a women's sports household. It started with the 1990's US Women's National Soccer Team. My 12 year old was over the moon when we went to see the 1999 World Cup games in New York and DC. We still follow our favorite MLB team, but other than that, it's pretty much women's sports. Basketball started with Caitlin Clark, and has now expanded to some of the US players in the Euroleague. Thanks to the Annika promo round with Caitlin Clark we've just started watching LPGA days as well.
@@timafi okay but did anyone who has a trophy bring in 18 million viewers.. no. Those are two different things, she brings the eyeballs. Nobody said she was the greatest player ever.
Basketball is a team effort, Sue was in UCONN all five star team, IOWA only had Clark. Players who won championship don't sold out tickets but they want to take credit, but its ok?
I literally thought Sue Bird is Larry Bird's daughter for decades until I follow CC during her Junior year march madness and gets into WBB😅 So I think shes correct they are non existent before especially to international fans.
I love how these brainiacs try to come up with a reason for women's basketballs surge this year and dance around the only reason why; two words. Caitlin Clark.
Bloomberg had better start PRAYING, there's NO ALTERNATIVE PARADISE, sweethearts. Satan has LIED TO YOU, HE IS THE FATHER OF LIES, YOU DON'T KNOW??? PRAY!
Numbers don’t lie. The WNBA is a failed business that has been financially propped up for 28 seasons by the NBA. When you look at the historic attendance in huge markets such as Chicago and New York, the number of people who want to turn out for 20 home games is really dismal. It’s just a fact. 2024 was the year that even more WNBA players were declaring that their league is the most competitive in the world and that they deserve to be paid like men. Well, there are dozens if not more boys high school basketball teams that could beat any WNBA team. You can’t shame Americans into becoming fans.
She's an even more incredible speaker and ambassador of the sport. OMG!!!!🔥🔥🔥
Love Sue. (And I'm a CC fan)
Thank you Sue!
I was looking to see if there were any new Sue Bird interviews out and this one came up. So here I am. ❤️ Excellent interview.
This was fantastic. Even more respect for Sue Bird which I didn’t think possible.
I love this coverage Everyone watches women’s sports
No, they do not! as far as the WNBA. we are her for ONE player! Caitlin Clark #22
@ that’s an unintelligent comment.
@@rustyfawnwho?
Great interview. Sue's such a great storyteller.

very insightful interview!
never heard of sue bird until i started following caitlin
Same
and she said there was a fire already before CC came. 🤣🤣🤣
same
That was fun. She’s awesome
I wasn’t a wbb fan until I watched Paige Bueckers You Tube video.
Theres only 1 reason: The Reality, Caitlin Clark.
They hate to give CC any flowers…
She won ZERO championships so she EARNED zero flowers. You don't get flowers unless you EARN it and not for participation trophies.
@35:52 where Sue gives Caitlin credit makes your statement look silly.

@@1in8Thrive don't gaslight me, speaking on CC for 2 moments but spending 15 moments donning on uconn and pb is not giving her her flowers.

Maybe just maybe women’s basketball could have been the biggest story at this Olympics (2024) if Caitlin would have been in the team
They still won gold 😂
Y’all are such an embarrassment to CC, I swear one of yall is gonna do to her what Selena’s fan club president did.
As Sue said, I first started following wbb due to Paige. Then went on to wnba. 😀
Sue and Breana : She need 4 championship to be one of the best. 🤣
Well Tweety, just how long do you plan on keeping us in the closet?
Riv dared me to ask!!!
No she didn’t!!!
Keep shining!!!
"Another athlete we've heard of"
There was a fire? nope!

She tells ALOT of lies in this interview

Sue thinks men should be allowed in womens sports.
Hypocrite
The business part of this is largely bs.
Sue is irrelevant. Her opinion does nit matter.
😂 yours doesn’t
It matters 😂
Your life is nothing compared to what she’s accomplished.
I get why you’re seething with jealousy.
FACTS! NO fire at all... look at the viewerships until CC came.. 🤣
Only reason Sue Bird relevant her sure HATRED OF CAITLIN CLARK
she is not a CC hater.
Sue Bird Does not hate on Caitlin Clark. She praises her all the time! It is obvious you do not follow reality. enjoy your fantasy life,
Caitlyn will never ever respect you the way she respects SB. Stay mad, little fella 😂
Sue and rapino are big time CC haters
SUe should tell the media Paige need 4 championship to be 1st pick. 🤣🤣
