SEATTLE — It was a great weekend for women's basketball in just about every way, writ large and small. Maybe even a watershed moment, but we'll have to wait and see about that.
Whatever the long-term ramifications, the Women's Final Four in Dallas captured the zeitgeist of the times, and the eyeballs of more people than ever before. There was an epic semifinal game, mammoth upsets, a breakout individual superstar, another superstar who outplayed her in the championship game, and good old-fashioned controversy. Loads and loads of controversy.
Over the weekend, nothing was "trending" on social media more than Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, championship-game officials, Kim Mulkey's pantsuit, taunting and John Cena's "You Can't See Me" hand gesture.
