Pat McAfee speaking about Caitlin ClarkPat McAfee (Photo via @awfulannouncing/Twitter)
Pat McAfee may have finally crossed the line at ESPN after calling Caitlin Clark something very unexpected, although Chennedy Carter called her something very close to that over the weekend.

McAfee was discussing Clark’s impact on the WNBA and was not criticizing the Indiana Fever rookie but still ended up branding her a “White B-.”

Interest in WNBA basketball has ramped up mostly due to Clark’s arrival, and Pat was calling other members of the media out for pretending as if the entire 2024 rookie class is responsible for all the new fans the women’s league has attracted this year.

“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 ‘The Pat McAfee Show’ on Monday.

We didn’t believe it either, but check out the video below:

“why speak on caitlin clark or any young woman in the wnba this way?????” one fan asked.

“Only a white man can do what he just did,” another said.

“Pat actively trying to get ESPN to let him go at this point so he can go solo again,” another observed.

“Pat doing everything he can to get fired,” another comment read.

Caitlin Clark Can’t Catch A Break

Of course, we get his point. That isn’t to say that we agree with it, but was calling her such a name really necessary?

We also get who Pat McAfee is. The man says the wildest things imaginable for a living. But Caitlin Clark will feel like she can’t catch a break.

After winning two of her first 11 games in the WNBA on the back of a second straight national championship disappointment, multiple cheap shots, and endless criticism, she would expect someone praising her impact in the media to at least not call her a “White B-,” right?

Patrick Mahomes’ Half-Brother Announces Transfer To Major College Football Program

Graham Walker, the half-brother of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, is transferring to another Division 1 football program.

Per Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk, Walker is transferring to Rice after spending the last three years at Brown. Walker will play wide receiver for the Owls, perhaps pushing himself closer to one day joining Patrick Mahomes in the pros.

Walker is the son of Pat Mahomes Sr., a former Major League Baseball pitcher whose career spanned from 1992 to 2003. Mahomes Sr. had Graham with Jessamyn Walker, who has primarily raised the child with partner Gerry Howatt (Graham’s stepfather).

The 6-foot-3, 215-pound Walker recorded 44 receptions for 515 yards and six touchdowns in his final season at Brown. He had his best statistical season in 2021, recording 53 receptions for 658 yards and six scores.

 

Patrick Mahomes & Chiefs Aim For Three-Peat

Mahomes and the Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl 58 to become the first team to repeat since the 2003 and ’04 New England Patriots. Up next, KC will try to make history as the first team to win three straight Super Bowls.

There have been some fairly close calls, including the 1990 49ers and 1994 Dallas Cowboys, who lost the NFC Championship Game after winning consecutive Super Bowls. The Patriots won it all in 2016 and 2018, but lost the big game to the Philadelphia Eagles in 2017.

Kansas City’s quest to a three-peat will begin against old friend Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens in the NFL Kickoff Game on Sept. 5.
