Breaking News;Pat McAfee slammed for ‘white b****’ rant about Caitlin Clark after controversial foul

Published

Pat McAfee is facing strong backlash after referring to WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark as a “white b****” in a rant about a controversial foul against her.

McAfee, a famed podcast for ESPN, urged members of the media to stop crediting the success of the Indiana Fever player with that of the entire group of first-year players.

“I would like the media people that continue to say, ‘This rookie class, this rookie class, this rookie class’. Nah, just call it for what it is — there’s one white b**** for the Indiana team who is a superstar,” he said on Monday.

The former NFL punter-turned-analyst wondered aloud whether the fact that she’s white has contributed to her popularity.

“Is there a chance that people just enjoy her playing basketball because of how electrifying she is, what she did, what she stood for,” he said. “But instead, we have to hear people say that we all like her because she’s white and she’s the only popular because the rest of the rookie class is doing what they’re doing. That’s a bunch of bulls***.”

The comments were made after McAfee walked through a Powerpoint-like presentation of Clark’s accomplishments, such as her massive TV ratings, compared to two other WNBA rookies such as Cameron Brink and Angel Reese.

Although McAfee’s appeared to be trying to compliment Clark, his sentiment was overshadowed by his derogatory term. The four other men in the room with McAfee also didn’t call out the analyst’s use of the offensive term.

Many online have slammed McAfee, taking issue with the nature and language of his comment.

“Calling a woman athlete a b**** while simultaneously tearing down the real and substantial efforts the entire rookie class has done is why Pat McAfee should not be commentating on any women’s sports,” one X user wrote.

Another remarked, “As a reminder, ESPN laid off quite a few talented people to give Pat McAfee $17 million a year. I’m also sick to death of the Caitlin Clark discourse. Way too many people have completely sucked the fun and excitement out of having her in the WNBA.”

Yet another suggested, “Maybe Pat McAfee should take some time off from talking about women’s sports if he’s going to be casually referring to the players as b******.”
