LSU women’s basketball player Angel Reese won’t just forgive and forget First Lady Jill Biden’s suggestion that Iowa should accompany the Tigers to the White House.

After LSU’s win over Iowa in the NCAA national championship, the first lady said she’d ask President Joe Biden to extend the White House invitation to Iowa. Traditionally, trips to the White House are reserved for the championship winners.

Reese took exception to comments. Iowa star Caitlin Clark said during an ESPN interview that the trip should be for the winners only. Iowa head coach Lisa Bluder said the same on Twitter.

 

In reaction to the backlash, the first lady’s press secretary put out a statement clarifying that the comments were made to highlight how historic the game was for women’s athletics and that Iowa was never officially invited.

 

Despite that, Reese said she won’t forgive the first lady.

“I’m not gonna lie to you, I don’t accept the apology because you said what you said,” Reese said during an interview on the Paper Route podcast. “I said what I said. You can’t go back on certain things that you say. I mean, you felt like they should’ve come because of ‘sportsmanship,’ right? They can have that spotlight. We’ll go to the Obamas.”

Additionally, Reese felt the only reason the first lady made the suggestion was because she was rooting for Iowa to win.

“When you came to the game, were you coming to see that one team win or were you coming to see everybody win?” Reese said. “It’s just hard to see that because we worked just as hard as Iowa did, and I just know if the roles were reversed, it would not be the same.”

Since the first lady’s comments, LSU’s players have remained undecided on their White House trip. There have been discussions, though.

“As soon as that happened, we hit the group chat like, ‘What we doing?'” Reese said. “‘Y’all trying to go? Because if we’re not going, we’re not going.'”

i call serious bullcrap here. the little white girl has been talking trash ALL season long and people talked about how cute it was. we get a black lady doing the same thing and she is a thug and needs to shut the hell up? this is some of that racism that happens that some of you claim never happens. explain to me the difference? she never cussed. she never got physical. she did a john cena move and pointed at her ring finger. and yet in todays world she is suddenly a thug that needs to shut the hell up right? she has a right to be angry. god forbid if a black person takes a stand in this country we do not like after she has been threatened over the same stuff the other girl did. it is called racism pub.

I don't have a problem with her gesture and trash talk.  Guys do it all the time.  Even the girl from Iowa didn't care about it.

But this thing of not going to the White House is petty.

why is it every time i point something out i am mad or angry as hell? most of the times you guys are way off base. this is a board to discuss stuff i thought? i do feel strongly about this because there are many on the fam that do not think racism exists. i am blunt and to the point mostly. i am not always angry. i am also a lazy typist but if i slowed down enough to get things perfect i would forget what i was saying. but no mr mims i am seldom mad ....unless i am attacked. grins

[aubiefifty 18,434]

i forgot to acknowledge the obama's comment. while it might come off as racist i believe she thought inviting the losers up on LSU's special day might have been racist or something? i think it was anger. but i have no idea what goes on inside the young ladies head.

Only one person had replied to the thread when you had that rant, and I dunno Pub at all really, but unless he has a history of telling 'little white girls' how great they are for taking trash talk to social media then your rant was off base.

 

 

And the calm down part was for your health, I have a hard time remembering who posts what but I'm almost positive you had said you were having blood pressure issues recently.

Racism is inviting (yes she did) the losers (IOWA) to the White House along with the winners (LSU). The reason is Jill likes the team with lots of white girls.  LSU not so much. She just accidentally dropped the truth. Yeah her people are walking it back but too late. Nice try though fiddy trying to make some trouble between CC and AR. Creating racism out of thin air where none exists. See the truth for once.

Sounds like JJ is more read up on it than you. I am still trying to figure out what is racist about this whole situation. And certainly do see where Trump fits into the conversation. 

So Pub saying that LSU needs to get her to drop it with this whole White House invitation is racist? I personally don't like the fact that she wants to invite Iowa to the White House. Since when do we invite the losers? Let's just give out trophies to everyone!! 

Reese voiced her opinion on it and should drop it and move on. Not going because of this is dumb and petty. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity even if you don't like the person in office.

the racist part was the media made the white chick a media darling and thought her trash talking was cute. reese did the same thing and she is a thug amd trash along with the lsu program. she is getting hate mails and i want to say death threats but i do not want to go look it up. lets make it real simple. white girl running her mouth is good and cute. a black girl does it and she is a thug. that is THE issue.

Obviously she was not made a media darling if one cannot easily find it. From what I read it was two......just two folks that talked bad about AR.  Which I am surprised because one for sure is a known democrat. And we all know they can't be racist right?

LOL, you did not back up your claim. You just said you saw it on TV. 

Provide links to where the media was making CC out to be a media darling while at the same time trashing AR. Once you can do that we can discuss. 

"You people" you sound kinda racist yourself Fidy.....not sure what you are talking about with Trump or what that has to do with things working out for me other than you have to find a way to drag him into every conversation. 

Again, if you can back up your claim we can discuss.
