It\u2019s \u201call good\u201d between Caitlin Clark and Pat McAfee after the ESPN personality apologized Monday for calling her a \u201cwhite bitch\u201d during a discussion about the WNBA on his self-titled program.<\/p>\n
McAfee opened Tuesday\u2019s show by addressing the matter, a day after he came under fire for the brazen commentary about Clark, 22.<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously that\u2019s a massive f\u2013k-up on my end. I apologize for that. I did reach out to Caitlin Clark through the Fever (public relations), sent an apology and then got a message back that she said it was all good. No blood. We move forward. And she appreciates us reaching out and apologizing. So that obviously makes me feel a little bit better. But to the people that got pissed off yesterday and offended, I understand. I learned a lot,\u201d McAfee said.<\/p>\n
McAfee spent time on Monday\u2019s show talking about Clark\u2019s game against the Chicago Sky over the weekend when veteran Chennedy Carter hip-checked the star rookie.<\/p>\n
The WNBA upgraded the foul to a Flagrant 1 on Sunday. <\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not going to say anything about the athletes on the court. Athletes are going to be athletes, if they think they can get in your head by bodying you or talking s\u2013t, they\u2019re going to do what they\u2019re going to do,\u201d McAfee said.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I do have a message for the sports media or the ex-WNBA players, there seems to be this notion, and maybe we\u2019re wrong on it, that this whole evolution of success and popularity in the WNBA is because of this entire rookie class. I think there\u2019s a chance Chennedy Carter of Chicago, whenever she\u2019s going to Caitlin, you see [Sky rookie] Angel Reese get all jacked up about it and celebrating, I think that\u2019s because she thinks Angel Reese deserves more credit than what she\u2019s getting. Caitlin\u2019s getting all this credit and you hear a lot of sports media, \u2018This is an entire class, this rookie class is the reason why this is happening it\u2019s the next generation,\u2019 well, that\u2019s fun.\u201d<\/p>\n
The segment continued to veer off the rails when McAfee introduced a presentation-like game about the WNBA that highlighted TV ratings and game attendance and featured the mugs of fellow rookies in Reese and Cameron Brink. <\/p>\n
That\u2019s when he uttered the unabashed comment about Clark.<\/p>\n
\u201cI would like the media people that continue to say, \u2018This rookie class, this rookie class, this rookie class.\u2019 Nah, just call it for what it is, there\u2019s one white bitch for the Indiana team who is a superstar, and is it because she stayed in Iowa and put an entire state on her back and took a program from nothing to a multiple-year success story?\u201d McAfee said.<\/p>\n
The former NFL punter received backlash over the remark and issued an apology Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n
\u201cI shouldn\u2019t have used \u2018white bitch\u2019 as a descriptor of Caitlin Clark. No matter the context.. even if we\u2019re talking about race being a reason for some of the stuff happening.. I have way too much respect for her and women to put that into the universe,\u201d McAfee said in a post on X.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy intentions when saying it were complimentary just like the entire segment but, a lot of folks are saying that it certainly wasn\u2019t at all. That\u2019s 100% on me and for that I apologize\u2026 I have sent an apology to Caitlin as well.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
