Clark is so much better than the people she is being compared to. Those who can be impartial and don't have an agenda all say this. She won't win but the nomination shows how big she is
Obviously her skills and game play are a big part of her appeal, but I think another big part of it is the way she carries/ presents herself. Professionally and w/o the WNBA toxic drama. Good for her!
CC has fantastic talent and skill, fantastic off court presentation, but above all, she is such a force in advancing women's sport that is not sexualized or minimized. She helps us women feel first class -- world wide.
New Fan of CC, I look to sports to distract me from the world of politics, from the pressure of identity politics, love US College Football because you win or loose the players choose. I only follow the Fever as a new WNBA fan who is watching only because of the inspirational rise of a player from a underdog program, a team that was within a game of winning the highest award in college game twice in a row. I watched this past season the Fevers progress, I saw each dirty play targeting her, I saw each non call against her, I listened to every pendant prognosticate as to why she was not the best, I watched as her own coach at times seemed intent of destroying her rookie season. all of the above simply made me root for her success all the more. Now I hope with a nomination like this more people worldwide will become fans of CC as well. My only prayer is that the activists do not try and injure her seriously in order to end her career , you know Mick, players who poke eyes, players who run over her on fast breaks, players who make head shots against her, players like that.
"Clark" is a pure English name and the 25th most common surname in Britain. she's an English rose. I got my relatives in Manchester and London to vote for her and Simone. O HOPE she wins. No, the English are about as good at Basketball as the Americans or Irish are good at Soccer. P.S. If an Irishman isn't pissed off about something they don't know they're alive.
Every time I think about that I find it hilarious that she only gives herself credit. The irony of hating that someone else is specifically given credit only because you also want to be specifically given credit. If she gave credit to the draft class it would have been fine. Or even if she mentioned Brink, Jackson, and her TEAMMATE Cardoso along with herself it wouldn't have felt quite so narcissistic. But no, only Angel should get any credit.
I was just writing to a friend that everytime I watch a CC video, I end up seeing the name, image, or antics of AR - I can't get away from her, no matter how hard I try.😂🤣😂🤣
The biggest thing to me is that another countrys media values her worth more than her own. Think of how many olympians are not on this list, how many olympic medalists and world record holders. Its another way to tell, Caitlin Clark most had been on the olympic team she was very deserving and an asset, it was a big injustice to leave her out just not to hurt some peoples feelings, very stupid !!!
Her being nominated might raise her recognition in England and get more attention for the league. And I never confused you with a Brit being part Irish myself.
@@TyLeeper-r1e Alright, but I did say the USA. No offense to Simon, but MANY of us no longer care what the Olympics does or what happens in them. This last one cemented those feelings.
Hahahaha!!! "The most offensive thing you can say to an Irish person" I'm the only one born in the USA in my family and I know, from listening to what my family went thru, you do NOT call me British!!. I was on vacation in Mexico and someone said I look like I'm from England and I was highly offended!!
All the nominees have a great personality - CC's story is strong. Even if the US fumbled when it came to the Olympics. As she plays in the same team as Temi is a way that BBC heard of her in the first place - and discovered her story...
Watched all three of Sifan Hassan's races at the Olympics. Awesome athlete. To win the marathon so soon after the two other long distance races was a thing to behold. I'd give her the award, hands down.
Of course her nomination is massive. The WNBA was a non-entity last year. Now one of their players is getting massive recognition from England. England! Clark is globally transcendent.
good luck to CC I don't see how you can say Simone Biles is the greatest Olympian. She is 25th on the total Medals won list. she is great but not the greatest IMO
Hi Mick old Glasgow boy 75 yo lived in Canada 49 years Big NFL fan till Covid, then about 3 years ago started watching IOWA and CC Cant wait for the start of the new year.
Everybody in the world, except the professional sports league that employs her, and for whom she alone is responsible for 26.5% of revenue in 2024 (LA Times), appreciates Caitlin Clark. It's complete madness. Generated 26.5% of WNBA economic activity 2024 Total viewership up 300% - 45% of total broadcast value from Fever games Merchandise sales up 500% with CC at number 1 Clark/Fever games viewership average 200% more than games without her Goup the dumbest women together and you get the WNBA.
Well look lets be honest. She has merits to win, but so had serena more than once and never won..We are talking that dominated her sport for several years during the serena slam she won all grand slam tournaments in a row..even when BBC tends to favor tennis athletes Women have not been very lucky at winning the award. CC has all the merits to win, I dont know of a more popular athlete in the world or one having a bigger impact right now on her sport and in sports in general and the fact that she is nominated is testament to this statement. However, lets say Simone has won before, is more known around the world, and with the come back and all she has a great chance.
Isn’t the whole point of the GFA that a person from the island of Ireland can identify as whatever, meaning it’s never safe to assume anything about what a person with an Irish accent “is”?
I think CC didn't get on the Olympic team was because Dana Turasi wanted that 6th gold medal and if CC played in the 2024 olympics she could have surpassed her with the most gold medals. but now given what age she would be a possibly retire she wouldn't beable to.. I hope to hell she plays until she's 50 so she can still win 7 gold olympic medals.
No, that's a minor reason, but mainly she didn't make the team because of petty insecurity & jealousy from the others who were too threatened that she'd take the shine away from them.
Biles is not the greatest olympian of all time. She quit on her team and country in 2021. The best olympian of all time is Michael Phelps and followed by Katie Ledecky.
Given many of the commenters don't even know who she is (that's how little they care about the whole sport) -- it's sounds more likely she comes in last in the voting instead of first.

Any award from the BBC is not worth having. You are indeed most certainly not British, it is very offensive to British people should it be suggested that you are
By the comments section in that... It seems like nobody knows of Clark in that country like they do here in America.... They need to stop that nonsense like Clark is some worldwide Mega star.... She is not as popular as any American Tennis star globally... I bet everyone in England knows who Coco Gauff is and Iga Swiatek....
Famous worldwide. Ask me to name a famous athlete, CC name will be in my quick list. Ask me about an American tennis player I’ll have to think about it.
Just voted for her..
I just voted for her . Hope she wins 😊
You are doing the Lord’s work!
Same here! 🙂
people from the US can`t vote.
A big accomplishment in her 1st year!
It is a massive accomplishment that she has been nominated in the first place!
It's awesome that she's been nominated for this award!!! 🏀🏀🏀
Clark is the only one on the list to have fans no matter what sport she does.
She is the only one who wasn’t at the Olympics !!!!!!!
Very unusual. She could well win
Caitlin Clark was just interviewed by David Letterman for “My Next Guest “ at Ball State where David went to school.
Everyone in the whole world recognizes Caitlin as a great athlete except for WNBA and ESPN.
Clark is so much better than the people she is being compared to. Those who can be impartial and don't have an agenda all say this. She won't win but the nomination shows how big she is
And she’s just getting started
People are comparing CC to others because they are looking for clicks and likes.
Obviously her skills and game play are a big part of her appeal, but I think another big part of it is the way she carries/ presents herself. Professionally and w/o the WNBA toxic drama. Good for her!
Totally agree! She plays a very entertaining brand of basketball and she is very charismatic and engaging on and off the court.
Absolutely!
CC is just so personable that it carries all around the World 🎉

big CONGRATS to the one of one= CC❤❤❤❤
I think she has a chance to win! What an honor for her to be nominated!
Just voted for CC22.

Wow. How DARE they make that list and not include Angel Reese? It’s not just because of one person. It’s because of HER TOOOOOOO!!!!!1

😂😂😂😂
No Angel Reese on that list?! LOL
AR was nominated to be the face of OF. She’s expected to win because no one else was nominated but it will be close.
Just voted for her .
CC deserves the win. I voted for her too.😊
No nomination for A ja Wilson. Lomfao
Cause she ain’t better than CC
I was chatting up some blokes at a Tottenham game in London this past October & I asked if they knew she was. They had no clue.
@@cjprince1 They don't know anyone in the WNBA then,lol
Simone will vote for Clark. Wanna bet
Is she English?
@@cjprince1 You don't necessarily have to be. Register and change your VPN [if you have one] to United Kingdom and you can vote.
i don't think so. Simone is pretty big on the sister hood.
Mick said only the English can vote.
@@cathygregory3443 If you have a VPN you go to the BBC website and register, then change your VPN to United Kingdom and vote.
No people in Great Britain know who she is. The whole world knows who she is
A’ja Wilson was nominated but turned it down.
Oh well
😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Aja Wilson is basically a piece of toilet paper stuck to the bottom of CC’s shoe. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
For picking up garbage
It's worth getting a VPN just to support her in this.
she earn nominated for World Sports Award, regarding what she had done......I'll vote for Her
Voted

Glad you made this video. Just had to make a BBC account, she got my vote.
She is the USA's TOP athlete for 2024 period!
Sorry, that would be Simone Biles hands down. Simone's popularity exceeds the boundaries of the US. Simone Biles is known world wide
@@TyLeeper-r1e Alright, but I did say the USA. No offense to Simon, but MANY of us no longer care what the Olympics does or what happens in them. This last one cemented those feelings.
I voted with a vpn
Yep!

I was on vacation in Mexico and someone said I look like I'm from England and I was highly offended!!
Clark herself? She just might vote for Biles.
All the nominees have a great personality - CC's story is strong. Even if the US fumbled when it came to the Olympics. As she plays in the same team as Temi is a way that BBC heard of her in the first place - and discovered her story...
Aww c'mon... highlight Catherine Debrunner! Don't just scroll past the Paralympian.
clark might win this. i think only Mondo and Biles are the competition for this. cc has just more name recall right now.
Watched all three of Sifan Hassan's races at the Olympics. Awesome athlete. To win the marathon so soon after the two other long distance races was a thing to behold. I'd give her the award, hands down.
Of course her nomination is massive. The WNBA was a non-entity last year. Now one of their players is getting massive recognition from England. England! Clark is globally transcendent.
Where do you vote
Congratulations to all of them. Marchand was amazing and beginning his career. Catlin is beginning her career. Simone is doing a gymnastics road show.
I love it! Just being nominated is a great honor! Oh, poor Miss Wilson must be fumin’! 😂
I think it is fantastic. She is a true ambassador for women sports and basketball. Truly an inspirational honor. Congrats Kid congrats.
Why isn't this called "MiCK Talks Caitlin Clark" yet???
It is !!! Hoops is Mick's nickname for C# :D.
good luck to CC I don't see how you can say Simone Biles is the greatest Olympian. She is 25th on the total Medals won list.
she is great but not the greatest IMO
Don't try to be like CC be yourself & you will be a better player for it
Aja Wilson will claim that she turned the nomination…
lol
Is A’ja going to say she was nominated when she was younger for this award before CC? Totally joking
Hi Mick old Glasgow boy 75 yo lived in Canada 49 years Big NFL fan till Covid,
then about 3 years ago started watching IOWA and CC Cant wait for the start of the new year.
Idc Jeanty for heisman
Everybody in the world, except the professional sports league that employs her, and for whom she alone is responsible for 26.5% of revenue in 2024 (LA Times), appreciates Caitlin Clark. It's complete madness.
Generated 26.5% of WNBA economic activity 2024
Total viewership up 300% - 45% of total broadcast value from Fever games
Merchandise sales up 500% with CC at number 1
Clark/Fever games viewership average 200% more than games without her
Goup the dumbest women together and you get the WNBA.
Well look lets be honest. She has merits to win, but so had serena more than once and never won..We are talking that dominated her sport for several years during the serena slam she won all grand slam tournaments in a row..even when BBC tends to favor tennis athletes Women have not been very lucky at winning the award.

Here's a question. Who makes the nominations?
So when do we expect the A'ja I'm there too ! Comment ? Voted myself too for C#.
A’ja will say that she was nominated first.
Isn’t the whole point of the GFA that a person from the island of Ireland can identify as whatever, meaning it’s never safe to assume anything about what a person with an Irish accent “is”?
I think CC didn't get on the Olympic team was because Dana Turasi wanted that 6th gold medal and if CC played in the 2024 olympics she could have surpassed her with the most gold medals. but now given what age she would be a possibly retire she wouldn't beable to.. I hope to hell she plays until she's 50 so she can still win 7 gold olympic medals.
She will break all of her records let her keep one.
No, that's a minor reason, but mainly she didn't make the team because of petty insecurity & jealousy from the others who were too threatened that she'd take the shine away from them.
Hope C-Square wins it but if not Catherine Debrunner should
You can not convince me that Yusuf Dikec shouldn't be on this list 😂
Biles is not the greatest olympian of all time. She quit on her team and country in 2021. The best olympian of all time is Michael Phelps and followed by Katie Ledecky.
Given many of the commenters don't even know who she is (that's how little they care about the whole sport) -- it's sounds more likely she comes in last in the voting instead of first.
She is just Huge.
CC will win
If she went to the Olympics!
They obviously recognize that she transcends women's basketball.
That’s all? A’ja’s been nominated for the UNIVERSE SPORTS award.
