Thanks for expanding the narrative. It is easy to get tunnel vision when all you see is the same old same old. Muhammad Ali was also a globally inspiring figure. He staged fights outside the U.S. in places like Zaire and the Philippines that were bigger than anything anyone had ever seen. CC haters are nothing compared to Ali haters. Maybe Nike could sponsor the Fever's world tour. God knows we need some relief from hate and politics.
@GregF-k7w - let the hater’s hate, for the world to see & let’s pray for their change, we hate the sin, not the sinner. We all change the world, big & small
Surly she has. She's the diamond of her generation. Rookie superstar, a straight white woman and unprivileged, proved all racist nonsense wrong. Lady on the court. Lady in life
Same here 58 never seen an NBA game myself but was surfing RUclips and ran across her right before her final games for Iowa i now have WNBA streaming service
I'm a 67 year old male that's not prone to tearing up... i listened to Kelsey Mitchell congratulating Caitlin, my cheeks were definitely damp. Kelsey is a real class act, from the heart!!!
God sent a Comforter to Kelsey. Millions of CC fans who are now KM fans. We can't replace her daddy, but we're showering her with love and accolades that she's earned and God wants her to have.
KENYAN in the house,Caitlin is the best WNBA player we've been privileged to witness in this life time,remember the Mcheal Jordan impact way back! that's how we view CC! her talent is undeniable,her personality,she's humble,she's just a straight up baller....I don't understand the hate that she's getting,saying it's coz of white privilege is just ignorant,her skills are what attracts the millions of people in the world,her demeanour is refreshing,she ain't like other superstars in the same league who mostly are arrogant,self absorbed and self centered! she's a breath of fresh air for sure,BIG UP CC,keep on keeping on
So many people from all over the world are Clark fans. The WNBA really missed out not having Clark on the team. 100 million more people from around the world would have known who Aja Wilson is just from having Clark on the team. But maybe that wouldn't be a good thing because 100 million more people would know who Aja Wilson is.
I am from Nicaragua and I am mesmerized with the talent and the incredible human being that is CC22. Now I can see other incredible and talented players like Boston, Mitchell, Hull, etc.
I wish this video of African girls is seen by the Caitlin Clark haters and denouncers like Cheryl Swoopes, The View's Hostin and Woopie Goldberg, Aja Wilson, Dijonai Carrington, Chennedy Carter, Angel Reese, Andrea Carter, Chinney Ogwumike, Geno Auriema, Caroline Peck, WNBA PA officers and players, Molly Kerim, McNutt, Cathy Engelbert, Cheryl Reeves, Elle Duncan, the player with goggles who sideswiped CC, Alyssa Thomas, et al. They might pick up some lessons and values from that video.
We love your humility and b ball game Ms Clark. Much love from S Korea 🇺🇸 🇰🇷. My family started watching the W because of you, not these obtuse players with agendas causing controversy in the W. Congratulations #22 ROTY 2024 🎉 Congratulations Indiana Fevers for the great season 👏. Let's go IOWA Hawks 💪 👏. Lucy Olson will have an epic season for the Iowa women's basketball team this year.
It was good. But actually I thought Nalyssa Smith’s was as heartfelt and honest as any of them. And she seemed so honored to be part of her “history”. She said exactly right. It’s historic.
What happened to these girls makes me cry. What Fever can bring is something fantastic. It brings happiness and hope. These girls like me, don't register color. I think these beautiful girls playing basketball are amazing.
CC mania has reached India too. A country that is mostly obsessed with cricket and not much else matters when it comes to sports. But CC broke through over there. To see her in Africa too. She's worldwide. I even see the Philippines obsessed with her
I think the young lady perfectly summed up Caitlin Clark on the court and the Caitlin Clark effect off the court " like magic in my eyes ". Another great video.
I got emotional when it was Kelseys turn, and was surprised by her heartfelt message. Never heard her speak like that. --- Those girls in Africa, so touched by this...
💯 We love your humility ❤️ and b ball game Ms Clark. Much love from S Korea 🇺🇸 🇰🇷. Congratulations Ms Clark ROTY 2024 🏆. Congratulations Indiana Fevers 🎉. Let's go IOWA Hawks 💪 👏. Lucy Olson will have an epic season.
Never watched Women Basketball until March this year after i came across articles on CC in the sports news and have been glued to all events since. Once they reorganize the team she needs to take the Fever to places and spread her Magic.. The CC Effect is captivating and powerful. Am ardently following from Nairobi, Kenya
Omg seeing those 22 jerseys made me tear up. Caitlin is a role model for so many girls in the world and yet the wnba doesn’t recognize what they have in Cc. The WNBA should be marketing their league and using Cc to do it. However, the wnba is filled with a bunch of racist jealous lesbians and the commissioner is afraid to put Cc out there as this most special female player.
In Caitlin's case, I don't believe gender or ethnicity matters (away from the WNBA and Caitlin haters). She has transcended most norms with her conduct off the court. I believe she is a role model for young boys as well. I will temper my position a little bit by saying my wish for her would be to better control her emotions on the court. There is good reason but sometimes it isn't a good look.
@@2kool42 how is she suppose to curb her emotions when she is getting hacked and knocked down and no fouls being called when they are obvious fouls? You expect her to be the perfect basketball player and just go with the flow of prison ball and refs not reffing? She isn’t a computer nor a zombie. I wish she would get more feisty and I think a lot of her fans want her to start sticking up for herself even more.
@@casilatino Your points are valid and well taken. I remember being exacerbated by the injustice she was enduring. I agree with you 100% that she was abused virtually every game and left to fend for herself. All that being said it is never helpful to show up a referee by flailing your arms as you walk down the court. Showing up a referee will only cause the close calls to go against you even when the official is trying to be unbiased. There is a saying "you get more with sugar than salt". The real travesty is she got no protection from her coach or teammates.
Adrienne her in canada all little girls and boys along with young woman are wearing catlins jersey, the world wide effect she brings to the sport is contagious.
Watching CC has inspired me to get my health in check. Her winning mentality is so contagious and everytime I watch her, I’m reminded to stay focused and productive because life is too short!
There seems to do much hate in the world now. But I do know when I see Kelsey Mitchell smile, I know there is still some good still out in the world. Kelsey, I am not a religious person, but you have such a good soul! Thank you for shining some good light in this tough old world we live in.
I been saying that she is very popular around the world since her late Sophomore year in IOWA. Her video gone viral on tik tok the game she had in high school where some group of boys called her overrated, then she scored 42. Then those fans started following her through you tube and ESPN. That's why she is the face of Women Basketball, not only WNBA. She brought the league to the world, she's MJ of WNBA.That's is why no matter what they do, Caitlin already established her legacy around the world, her name is already stamp on it.
When i found Caitlin and saw what a good role model she was , I thanked the Lord God. Finally, someone in popular culture that held good values. I pointed my girls toward her immediately. Youngsters will always be influenced by pop culture whether,we like it not,at least now they have a seemly educated,respectful,hard working, family oriented super star to be influenced by .
I’m glad I found your show months ago, Adrienne. It’s upbeat and positive and nice to share the experience of this phenomenon with the community you’ve attracted.
I believe we all can learn something from these young kids. It's not about the color of our skin It's about what is in our hearts. God Bless you all Amen
I swear to God on Friday was thinking I wish clark does a tour to some counties and maybe comes down here in africa visits some countries and other countries outside America coz she is so so loved
I did not follow wnba at all - but since Catlin Clark I Watch the games she plays and am so thrilled to witness a woman rise through talent, grit and grace I live in India and seeing her play brings a huge smile on my face Thank you for highlighting her successes I found and follow your channel for the positive narratives 🙏
As a former CPS worker (retired via burnout) it brings joy to my heart to see these young trauma survivors being supported in being allowed to observe that CC's beauty is also to be found within themselves. Wow!
Somewhere out there is a video of a woman - looking to be in her late fifties, maybe? - in maybe the Philippines or maybe West Indies... I'm really not sure where. But it's so sweet. She was so inspired by Caitlin Clark that she bought a basketball, got her husband to affix a hoop to a tree, and is out there in her dirt driveway trying and trying to make baskets and just having fun with it. You can tell she's never even touched a basketball, much less made shots, but she doesn't care. She just wants in some small fashion to be like Caitlin. I imagine there are many people around the entire globe who feel the same way. The Global Caitlin Clark Effect! Thanks for sharing this video, Adrienne. Truly inspirational!
Yep, I can understand this reaction I'm a 81yr male who started playing in the UK in 1954 at school, played and coached until nearly 50. My interest has been refired again. Thanks Caitlin!
The Adrienne Ross Effect... it's growing and growing!! What a wonderful news clip! And so awesome how the African girls didn't care about the color of Caitlin's skin, simply recognized the excellence of Caitlin's play and the excitement she brings. Now these girls need a WNBA subscription to allow them to watch all the Fever/CC22 games to see Caitlin in the WNBA!
Chelsea’s speech Was very…Inspiring… I think She Is Deep Thinking… Losing Her Dad, Her Dad Was Her Coach… It Had To Be A Hard Year! … Caitlin Has A Heart, And Probably made Sure Chelsea was okay! ❤️‼️ The Video From Africa…WOW! 😮🫶🏼🙏🏽… I have been on missions trips… I know exactly what you are talking about Adrienne! Those Girls are truly in love with Caitlin & the game, and they are probably praying that they get to meet her 1 day. 🙌🏼💯‼️🙏🏽 Thanks For Sharing That! Great Story! Prayers For Caitlin! 🙏🏽❤️💯‼️
Caitlin is a role model for girls all over the world. This is the first time ive seen this clip. But others from India and Iceland and im sure there is more. All this is soo positive. USA Basketball. WNBA. And the Angry women robbed these yung girls all over the world for selfish reasons. Shame on those people who did that. 😢😢😢
Watching from Russia.. Even here girls want to be like Caitlin Clark. Her impact is global like Michael Jordan. I was also in the Philippines during the WNBA Allstar game, and I've never seen that much people (Outside of the US) so excited to see a rookie WNBA player. Also.. I thought Kelsey Mitchell's voice is so sweet and she is so soft-spoken. I loved her message to Caitlin.
Ive been saying this and I saw comments from some of the socalled CC fans making wide assumptiond that alot of bp are against her. We are fans too. Quietly as kept, alot of bp are about decency and class. The low vibrational segment that the media promotes are the ones who might not like her and prefer Reese, Aja and others. They tend to be the loudest online. Its no longer just her game for me. But her class and poise too.
👍❤️🔥💯 Respect to you, my friend. I see the haters criticise CC, but, I don't see their "colour". I only see low vibrational humans who are jealous, envious and full of hatred, with a good dose of victim consciousness. I've seen the crowds, bp and yp mixed happily together, as it should be, and the adoring little kids, girls and boys waiting for an autograph. The actions of some, don't represent all, they've just got a loud voice. Again, respect to you, from an old man in Queensland Australia ❤
@@richardc1499 Indeed. You said it well. Interesting because I live in Las Vegas and I never even heard of players like Aja Wilson until this year. Unfortunately her personality is low vibrational.. Much love and peace to you down under. 🙏
Hi from the UK. 🇬🇧👋 I think if more women in the W really got to know CC, just like her teammates have, they wouldn't be quite so harsh on her. If it gets too much you can always come and play in Europe CC, we will have you!!💜
I like and love their expression, which is; "Like Magic in My Eyes'. This is the Blue Print inside the Heart/s of Every Young Woman about Caitlin Clark and her "Way of playing the Basketball Game' - which seems achievable by Every Young Woman of this Beautiful Earth. THUS; Caitlin Clark is an Inspiration-and-Hope for All Sport-minded Young Girls. GOD bless Africa, the Free World and the Truth Seekers. From an Engineer of the Philippines and a Predestination Baptist.
Reminds me of Mohammed Ali when he fought George Forman in Africa. Ali ment so much to people all around the world. In his life, he was loved. He was hated. But, in the end he was no doubt the most loved American. The most loved sports figure around the World... Role model. Caitlin is sure that in spades. You see the families. The parents with their daughters at all her games... Signing autographs... I watched her take off her shoes, sign them and give them to a little girl who had nothing for her to sign. The next week many other players were doing the same thing. Leadership, role models... The WMBA has to take care not to ruin that. Not to lose that. We need fewer haters and more basketball. Parents bring their kids to see Caitlin and watch the game. Basketball. It's the universal language. It's not someones private club. Lose the hate. Protect the game. It's a huge responsibility. But, it's in the hands of those who run this league. And the players, all of whom should be role models... When I was young, my first introduction to basketball was watching the Harlem Globtrotters. Goose Tatum and Meadowlark Lemon... Those were the days. And, those were ambassadors to this great game. To a little 8 year old they were magic. Just like Caitlin and Ali... Adrienne, once again you outdid yourself. You're always finding the real meaning in what's going on. What's really important.
Beautiful comments from Kelsey and the African girls amazing story good things can happen when we throw away the WOKE race card, thank you Adrienne showing good things.
All good, but you use the racist term "woke" so please tell us what you think about the 12-to-1 average asset ratio favoring white families over black. Color of Money, p. 249. Or aren't you woke to that?
@@quarterhorse9772 You say "woke," but you are afraid to tell what you think of the 12-to-1 average asset ratio favoring white families over black caused by affirmative action for whites.
Gosh ... those beautiful, sweet young girls getting joy from watching Caitlin. I have to go wipe my eyes. What a beautiful video, that one and this one.
Kelsey made me cry! Such grace! I’ve always had high regard for her! The girls in Africa are beautiful souls & this video is touched me deeply! Speechless
As we have seen recently the internet can be a cesspool populated by small minded people with small hearts. But this is one of the most beautiful things I have seen anywhere.
What a great story I literally had tears in my eyes! God Bless them young girls and boys. Thank you Adrienne for a great video to go to bed after watching. I am glad I didn't wait ❤
What I really like about this is how they reacted to the evidence of their own eyes and emotions without imposing an ideology on their perceptions as so many here in the U.S. seem so prone to do.
Beautiful video and perspective. Touched by the African girls, seeing them try to get the ball in that barren hoop, so happy. Maybe someone with a platform could organize a fundraising for the school and particularly to put in a more practical basketball court for them? Someone to go there and give them some instruction? They seem to have a natural instinctive love of the game.
Great podcast. Adrienne, you are part of the positive change that is happening in the world too. You are a reliable reporter on all things Caitlin and are honest in your presentation on all the matters you discuss. Thanks.
Adrianne. This melted me so. Thank you. 🙏🏼❤️So heart warming and beautiful. This is pure love and hope. These girls went through so much bad things and to see hope in their youthful eyes. I will pray for them. And if you know their school to donate to maybe you can put a link in the comments for next show. 🙏🏼❤️
Just got through watching TV all day..couch potatoed watching college football, major league playoffs, UFC, and Wrestlemania; and while having my night coffee before I call it a night, I clicked on this segment of yours - this, by far, overshadowed everything I've watched today. Thank you, Ms. Ross, for sharing//
I still get choked up listening to Kelsey Mitchell. What Kelsey doesn’t know is she’s changing the world too. It’s the kindness and humility you give to a person is what makes the change. Kelsey your dad is so proud of you as well as all of us. You’re one of the best WNBA players but more importantly your a great human. 🌺🌺🌺🩷🩷🩷
How pure is their enthusiasm. Playing without a backboard or a net or a surface to dribble upon...wow, and still feeling the joy because they have a basketball and a pole with a metal ring to toss it through. This is one of the reasons i enjoy seeing women and girls play sports. On the amateur side, i usually see a more wholesome enjoyment of the game without all the negative ego stuff. In pro sports or college, when i see some women acting with negative ego, i lose all interest. If you want negative ego, just tune in to just about any pro sport to see some bad apples spoil the barrel. Beautiful video. Got kind of choked up for a moment when they cheered after getting the ball through that metal ring. Reminded me of my late sisters, who did everything with gratitude and joy.
Back in ’81, I had a 7th grade teacher that taught us PMA positive mental attitude. PMA is a good way to look at things/life, if you focus/see negative then you’re not looking at things the right way. CC her team mates in Iowa, and now the Fever are seeing it, and most of are seeing it now. I seen it for the last 3 years in the WNCAA, Fla J, JuJu, Page and many others are coming to the WNBA soon so let’s please clean this league up, before these other young ladies join. Let’s keep our great fans, and new fans! Things are getting better, and it can only go up from here, if we all do are part. Remember PMA😄
So in other words, CC would be welcome anywhere in the world except the WNBA.
What a profound statement
Thanks for expanding the narrative. It is easy to get tunnel vision when all you see is the same old same old. Muhammad Ali was also a globally inspiring figure. He staged fights outside the U.S. in places like Zaire and the Philippines that were bigger than anything anyone had ever seen. CC haters are nothing compared to Ali haters.

Same here 58 never seen an NBA game myself but was surfing RUclips and ran across her right before her final games for Iowa i now have WNBA streaming service
She may play in Barcelona now.
i'm staying up at 3 am in China just cuz i wanna watch CC play. Never ever done that for even an Nba game.
All the WNBA hate in the states and then seeing all the pure love in Africa, amazing and outstanding!
I'm a 67 year old male that's not prone to tearing up... i listened to Kelsey Mitchell congratulating Caitlin, my cheeks were definitely damp. Kelsey is a real class act, from the heart!!!
Yeah, know how you feel. I'm in my 70's, also a man, and teared up too, with a smile. Truly lovely and I have a newfound respect for Kelsey M.❤
No, you're crying 😢
Me too man…..I thought it was just me 👏🏾👏🏾🙋🏾♂️
God sent a Comforter to Kelsey. Millions of CC fans who are now KM fans. We can't replace her daddy, but we're showering her with love and accolades that she's earned and God wants her to have.
So beautiful very touching, I love it! Love the fever❤
CC22 fan here 🇵🇭Philippines, clark is popular all over the world 🎉
All the girls wearing 22 brought tears to my eyes. Thanks for sharing this.
They would never do that here,they would have black little girls wearing a aja wilson jersey not on CC

Go check out Aja Wilson's or Sheryl Swoopes'. They're just completely divorced from reality.
Well said sir.
So well said! Thank you! Couldn’t have said it better! ❤
Well said. CC has impacted the world in such a positive way and her desire to have a positive impact on young boys and girls is so inspiring!
ABSOLUTELY AGREE!!
even in india... she draw people globally .. i watch her 2023.. im from philippines.
So many people from all over the world are Clark fans. The WNBA really missed out not having Clark on the team. 100 million more people from around the world would have known who Aja Wilson is just from having Clark on the team. But maybe that wouldn't be a good thing because 100 million more people would know who Aja Wilson is.
Adrienne is so special.
I teach with a teacher from Philippines 4 year program. He is amazing!!
atttiiikkkk
If CC traveled to these countries she would have the beatles treatment
I am from Nicaragua and I am mesmerized with the talent and the incredible human being that is CC22. Now I can see other incredible and talented players like Boston, Mitchell, Hull, etc.
All the women in the WNBA are talented. Unfortunately there are many who are blinded by ideology.
The Caitlin Clark effect is truly global in Iceland families with their kids are organising CC Fever watch party.
In Australia we love CC and all the Indiana Fevers players
G'day
Wow, that's awesome!
👍❤️🔥💯 yep, Queensland Australia here
😊
I’m a man Katanning Western Australia represent CC
Big CC fans here in New Zealand. Go be great CC all day every day.

Exclamation point on the "humble". For me, it is what puts her over the top.

I did NOT hear a RACIST bone in their beautiful minds and bodies!!!
Yep, all they see is another WOMAN doing great things and being inspired by her.
Even here in south Africa and we not even a basketball country ppl follow her on RUclips im sure stadium will fill up with the fever tour south Africa
Not fill up the stadium,but she does have support here
They saw something magical. What a great statement. I'm from Chile and CC captivated me. Yeah, she's magical.

hi from Nepal
I Loved what Kelsey said! ❤
Now Caitlin should take a trip to meet those young women in Africa.
I bet she will with Conner (her boyfriend) and Lexie Hull ( and Lexie's boyfriend).
It would be cool to see the Indiana Fever vs Las Vegas Aces in Africa
Her foundation should build courts all over the world, and her Wilson sponsor should be a part of this global phenomenon.
That would be so cool. CC is a special one. Kelsey Mitchell is also a special one.
@faavaleniupulusu2318 It would be heartwarming for me to see Caitlin spend some time with those girls in Africa.
I have been saying it also. Not just Africa. But all across Europe as well, Asia and Phillipines.
Thank you! You are changing lives too! More than you realize. There is always a bigger purpose. Thank you!
International fans are quite basketball savvy, as illustrated by the Olympics.
I hope you will continue to feature the global CC Effect.
There seems to do much hate in the world now. But I do know when I see Kelsey Mitchell smile, I know there is still some good still out in the world. Kelsey, I am not a religious person, but you have such a good soul! Thank you for shining some good light in this tough old world we live in.
CC is truly a global superstar placed by divine intervention in places needing it most. Including the WNBA.

She brought the league to the world, she's MJ of WNBA.That's is why no matter what they do, Caitlin already established her legacy around the world, her name is already stamp on it.
When i found Caitlin and saw what a good role model she was , I thanked the Lord God. Finally, someone in popular culture that held good values. I pointed my girls toward her immediately. Youngsters will always be influenced by pop culture whether,we like it not,at least now they have a seemly educated,respectful,hard working, family oriented super star to be influenced by .
I watch CC with my daughter in africa ,zambia
❤
I’m glad I found your show months ago, Adrienne. It’s upbeat and positive and nice to share the experience of this phenomenon with the community you’ve attracted.
Same here. Adrienne's podcast popped up in my Caitlin Clark feed. Been watching Adrienne ever since.
Love CC from Indonesia.
I believe we all can learn something from these young kids. It's not about the color of our skin It's about what is in our hearts. God Bless you all Amen
Include Philippines we loved CC22❤❤
I swear to God on Friday was thinking I wish clark does a tour to some counties and maybe comes down here in africa visits some countries and other countries outside America coz she is so so loved
I did not follow wnba at all - but since Catlin Clark I Watch the games she plays and am so thrilled to witness a woman rise through talent, grit and grace
I live in India and seeing her play brings a huge smile on my face
Thank you for highlighting her successes
I found and follow your channel for the positive narratives 🙏
As a former CPS worker (retired via burnout) it brings joy to my heart to see these young trauma survivors being supported in being allowed to observe that CC's beauty is also to be found within themselves. Wow!
Watching your channel and CC....from Singapore...
Somewhere out there is a video of a woman - looking to be in her late fifties, maybe? - in maybe the Philippines or maybe West Indies... I'm really not sure where. But it's so sweet. She was so inspired by Caitlin Clark that she bought a basketball, got her husband to affix a hoop to a tree, and is out there in her dirt driveway trying and trying to make baskets and just having fun with it. You can tell she's never even touched a basketball, much less made shots, but she doesn't care. She just wants in some small fashion to be like Caitlin. I imagine there are many people around the entire globe who feel the same way. The Global Caitlin Clark Effect! Thanks for sharing this video, Adrienne. Truly inspirational!
Wow.
Yep, I can understand this reaction I'm a 81yr male who started playing in the UK in 1954 at school, played and coached until nearly 50. My interest has been refired again. Thanks Caitlin!
@kingskidgirl2 That is a touching story. Thank you for sharing it with us.
What's the link to that video, sounds like an awesome thing!
I love this!!!
The Adrienne Ross Effect... it's growing and growing!! What a wonderful news clip! And so awesome how the African girls didn't care about the color of Caitlin's skin, simply recognized the excellence of Caitlin's play and the excitement she brings. Now these girls need a WNBA subscription to allow them to watch all the Fever/CC22 games to see Caitlin in the WNBA!
Chelsea’s speech Was very…Inspiring… I think She Is Deep Thinking… Losing Her Dad, Her Dad Was Her Coach… It Had To Be A Hard Year! … Caitlin Has A Heart, And Probably made Sure Chelsea was okay! ❤️‼️
The Video From Africa…WOW! 😮🫶🏼🙏🏽…
I have been on missions trips… I know exactly what you are talking about Adrienne!
Those Girls are truly in love with Caitlin & the game, and they are probably praying that they get to meet her 1 day. 🙌🏼💯‼️🙏🏽
Thanks For Sharing That! Great Story! Prayers For Caitlin! 🙏🏽❤️💯‼️
Caitlin is a role model for girls all over the world. This is the first time ive seen this clip. But others from India and Iceland and im sure there is more.
All this is soo positive. USA Basketball. WNBA. And the Angry women robbed these yung girls all over the world for selfish reasons. Shame on those people who did that. 😢😢😢
Watching from Russia.. Even here girls want to be like Caitlin Clark. Her impact is global like Michael Jordan. I was also in the Philippines during the WNBA Allstar game, and I've never seen that much people (Outside of the US) so excited to see a rookie WNBA player.
Also.. I thought Kelsey Mitchell's voice is so sweet and she is so soft-spoken. I loved her message to Caitlin.
We are so privileged to witness this happening with the CC effect in real time. It’s a beautiful experience.
Beautiful story about the girls in Africa. Thank you for this!
I got choked up and had tears in my eyes.
❤
God works in mysterious ways.
Yeah It's almost like he is deaf, dumb and blind.
Ive been saying this and I saw comments from some of the socalled CC fans making wide assumptiond that alot of bp are against her. We are fans too. Quietly as kept, alot of bp are about decency and class. The low vibrational segment that the media promotes are the ones who might not like her and prefer Reese, Aja and others. They tend to be the loudest online. Its no longer just her game for me. But her class and poise too.
👍❤️🔥💯 Respect to you, my friend. I see the haters criticise CC, but, I don't see their "colour". I only see low vibrational humans who are jealous, envious and full of hatred, with a good dose of victim consciousness. I've seen the crowds, bp and yp mixed happily together, as it should be, and the adoring little kids, girls and boys waiting for an autograph. The actions of some, don't represent all, they've just got a loud voice. Again, respect to you, from an old man in Queensland Australia ❤
@@richardc1499 Indeed. You said it well. Interesting because I live in Las Vegas and I never even heard of players like Aja Wilson until this year. Unfortunately her personality is low vibrational.. Much love and peace to you down under. 🙏
wow touching people around the world
WOW
Hi from the UK. 🇬🇧👋
I think if more women in the W really got to know CC, just like her teammates have, they wouldn't be quite so harsh on her. If it gets too much you can always come and play in Europe CC, we will have you!!💜
I like and love their expression, which is; "Like Magic in My Eyes'. This is the Blue Print inside the Heart/s of Every Young Woman about Caitlin Clark and her "Way of playing the Basketball Game' - which seems achievable by Every Young Woman of this Beautiful Earth. THUS; Caitlin Clark is an Inspiration-and-Hope for All Sport-minded Young Girls. GOD bless Africa, the Free World and the Truth Seekers. From an Engineer of the Philippines and a Predestination Baptist.
All I can say is WOW
I frickin LOVE Kelsey Mitchell!
from the Philippines,
we love CC22
❤❤❤
Reminds me of Mohammed Ali when he fought George Forman in Africa. Ali ment so much to people all around the world. In his life, he was loved. He was hated. But, in the end he was no doubt the most loved American. The most loved sports figure around the World... Role model. Caitlin is sure that in spades. You see the families. The parents with their daughters at all her games... Signing autographs... I watched her take off her shoes, sign them and give them to a little girl who had nothing for her to sign. The next week many other players were doing the same thing. Leadership, role models... The WMBA has to take care not to ruin that. Not to lose that. We need fewer haters and more basketball. Parents bring their kids to see Caitlin and watch the game. Basketball. It's the universal language. It's not someones private club. Lose the hate. Protect the game. It's a huge responsibility. But, it's in the hands of those who run this league. And the players, all of whom should be role models... When I was young, my first introduction to basketball was watching the Harlem Globtrotters. Goose Tatum and Meadowlark Lemon... Those were the days. And, those were ambassadors to this great game. To a little 8 year old they were magic. Just like Caitlin and Ali... Adrienne, once again you outdid yourself. You're always finding the real meaning in what's going on. What's really important.
@@johnwriter267 Thumbs up just for the Meadowlark Lemon mention. He's been forgotten far too quickly.
People's MVP!!! C22C🎉❤
Caitlin should take the Fever on a world tour and do some exhibition games to market herself and her teammates and of course the wnba.
Cant wait for their Asian Tour❤
WNBA will go nuts for that one.. 😆
Agree 1000%....she has to do it to globalize Womens BB just like what the NBA did. Also, to conduct Basketball Clinic around the World.
Great idea.
Great idea.
In the Philippines one of the biggest network for the very first time mentioned a player from WNBA which is CC, that shows CC effect is global 🙂
Beautiful comments from Kelsey and the African girls amazing story good things can happen when we throw away the WOKE race card, thank you Adrienne showing good things.
All good, but you use the racist term "woke" so please tell us what you think about the 12-to-1 average asset ratio favoring white families over black. Color of Money, p. 249. Or aren't you woke to that?
@@brianroesch3259”Woke” policies destroyed the black family.
@@brianroesch3259sounds to me like you are offended by the word WOKE, so are you woke as well as other woke people? 😂
@@quarterhorse9772 You say "woke," but you are afraid to tell what you think of the 12-to-1 average asset ratio favoring white families over black caused by affirmative action for whites.
Gosh ... those beautiful, sweet young girls getting joy from watching Caitlin. I have to go wipe my eyes. What a beautiful video, that one and this one.
Ditto
Oh, we do ❤️ love you Kelsey Mitchell.
Kelsey made me cry! Such grace! I’ve always had high regard for her! The girls in Africa are beautiful souls & this video is touched me deeply! Speechless
i just seen A.B adidas commercial and it's actually really good! i'm so happy she got sponsored 😊😊😊😊
Me too! I was like, hey, that's AB!! Great commercial!
As we have seen recently the internet can be a cesspool populated by small minded people with small hearts. But this is one of the most beautiful things I have seen anywhere.
Fully agree.
What a great story I literally had tears in my eyes! God Bless them young girls and boys. Thank you Adrienne for a great video to go to bed after watching. I am glad I didn't wait ❤
How exciting for those young girls.
That's simply beautiful to see. Amazing!!
I wish we defended/uplifted each other the way we defend Caitlyn Clark…. IJS
What I really like about this is how they reacted to the evidence of their own eyes and emotions without imposing an ideology on their perceptions as so many here in the U.S. seem so prone to do.
Beautiful video and perspective. Touched by the African girls, seeing them try to get the ball in that barren hoop, so happy. Maybe someone with a platform could organize a fundraising for the school and particularly to put in a more practical basketball court for them? Someone to go there and give them some instruction? They seem to have a natural instinctive love of the game.
@samanafisher8825 I would support a (legitimate) fundraising effort for the African school for girls.
it's only a game but it can inspire the human spirit
Great podcast. Adrienne, you are part of the positive change that is happening in the world too. You are a reliable reporter on all things Caitlin and are honest in your presentation on all the matters you discuss. Thanks.
From the smallest of seeds..... Outstanding video, the most beautiful I've seen in a long, long time.
Hope we can follow CC in Europe.😁
Adrianne. This melted me so. Thank you. 🙏🏼❤️So heart warming and beautiful. This is pure love and hope. These girls went through so much bad things and to see hope in their youthful eyes. I will pray for them. And if you know their school to donate to maybe you can put a link in the comments for next show. 🙏🏼❤️
Kelsey Mitchel is class act… beautiful lady…I started watching cause of CC but then I saw Kelsey she’s a baller!!!im in love 😻
Just got through watching TV all day..couch potatoed watching college football, major league playoffs, UFC, and Wrestlemania; and while having my night coffee before I call it a night, I clicked on this segment of yours - this, by far, overshadowed everything I've watched today. Thank you, Ms. Ross, for sharing//
I still get choked up listening to Kelsey Mitchell. What Kelsey doesn’t know is she’s changing the world too. It’s the kindness and humility you give to a person is what makes the change. Kelsey your dad is so proud of you as well as all of us. You’re one of the best WNBA players but more importantly your a great human. 🌺🌺🌺🩷🩷🩷
How pure is their enthusiasm. Playing without a backboard or a net or a surface to dribble upon...wow, and still feeling the joy because they have a basketball and a pole with a metal ring to toss it through. This is one of the reasons i enjoy seeing women and girls play sports. On the amateur side, i usually see a more wholesome enjoyment of the game without all the negative ego stuff. In pro sports or college, when i see some women acting with negative ego, i lose all interest. If you want negative ego, just tune in to just about any pro sport to see some bad apples spoil the barrel. Beautiful video. Got kind of choked up for a moment when they cheered after getting the ball through that metal ring. Reminded me of my late sisters, who did everything with gratitude and joy.
Back in ’81, I had a 7th grade teacher that taught us PMA positive mental attitude. PMA is a good way to look at things/life, if you focus/see negative then you’re not looking at things the right way. CC her team mates in Iowa, and now the Fever are seeing it, and most of are seeing it now. I seen it for the last 3 years in the WNCAA, Fla J, JuJu, Page and many others are coming to the WNBA soon so let’s please clean this league up, before these other young ladies join. Let’s keep our great fans, and new fans! Things are getting better, and it can only go up from here, if we all do are part. Remember PMA😄
