The Indiana Fever are doing what every professional team should do—building a competitive roster. And yet, people are acting like there’s some grand conspiracy at play. Some folks are convinced that WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert is rigging the league to make sure Caitlin Clark wins a championship. Suddenly, everything is *intentional* when it benefits Caitlin Clark.
When we pointed out that players were intentionally fouling Caitlin, people dismissed it. When we mentioned how tough Indiana’s schedule was, critics said, “Oh, that’s just how it worked out.” But now, when the Fever go all-in on winning? Oh no, it’s a *scandal*!
I wonder if Geno Auriemma will drop a video calling out all these delusional anti-Caitlin Clark fans.
People are panicking over a team that *looks* dangerous on paper. But guess what? Championships aren’t won on paper. They have to go out and play. Indiana hasn’t even played a single game with this lineup yet, and people are already spinning conspiracy theories. It’s *pathetic*—but also *hilarious*.
These are the same folks who said Caitlin Clark can’t be considered one of the greats because she’s never won a championship. Now that she has a strong team around her, they’re still complaining.
And let’s not forget their favorite narrative: “Nobody wants to play with Caitlin Clark.” That narrative just got *obliterated*.
Remember when they said no one wanted to deal with Indiana Fever fans? That players would run in the opposite direction to avoid playing alongside Caitlin Clark? Well, DeWanna Bonner just shattered that myth.
Bonner, a two-time WNBA champion and six-time All-Star, *chose* to sign with Indiana as a free agent. She’s not just excited about playing for the Fever—she’s excited about the *fans*! She literally said, “Of course, the fans.”
Indiana Fever fans are some of the most dedicated in the WNBA. They *show up* to games, buy merchandise, and invest in the team. But critics ignored that and focused on a handful of online trolls.
And now, the haters are scrambling.
Over on social media, some folks are in *full meltdown mode*. One person even said, “This is an obvious setup for Caitlin Clark to win a championship before Angel Reese. You can’t let the villain win before the hero.”
A team is actually doing its job—building a strong roster—and now it’s a *setup*? What were they supposed to do, deliberately sign bad players?!
Let’s be real—nobody is game-planning around stopping Angel Reese. Teams focus on Caitlin Clark.
And as for Sydney Colson signing with the Fever? People are losing their minds over *that*, too. Somebody tweeted, “Indiana is so greedy. They took Bonner, they took Natasha Howard, and now they took Sydney Colson? Why would they do this to us? Indiana better win a championship, or this is all for nothing.”
The level of delusion is *off the charts*.
Another person outright accused Cathy Engelbert of orchestrating everything. “The jig is up, Cathy!” they ranted. “Indiana keeps signing top players. The Fever and the league are doing everything possible to make sure Caitlin Clark is happy and gets a ring.”
Well, yeah… That’s kind of the point of *every* team in *every* professional league—to build a championship contender.
Look, I get it. Indiana has assembled a *scary* team. But now, the real work begins. They have to *prove it* on the court.
So, to all the haters out there, try to keep your lunch down. The Indiana Fever are just doing what any smart team should do.
