FS1’s Joy Tayor got destroyed online following what turned out to be an unpopular take.
Taylor was discussing Caitlin Clark during ‘Speak’ this week when she claimed no one was talking about the former Iowa star before the 2023 national championship game, adding Angel Reese’s taunts are what actually made her famous.
“We were not talking about Caitlin Clark before Angel Reese walked up to her, did this [waving her hand], and pointed to the ring,” she said.
“This is not my opinion. I lived it. I watched it. It was recorded, it was broadcasted live. We were not talking about Caitlin Clark before that moment, and that’s OK. You can be extremely talented and not interesting.”
Of course, Reese is doing her part for women’s basketball, and her antics gave both players more coverage than they probably would have gotten otherwise.
But Clark was pretty well known before that 2023 loss. She had already grabbed the headlines with a 41-point performance against South Carolina in the Final Four that year.
Fans Ripped Joy Taylor Over Her Odd Caitlin Clark Take
Fans were pretty quick to call Taylor out.
“Sports analysts saying they didn’t know who CC was before the 23 chip is extremely damning on sports media,” one said. “This does not say what she thinks it does.”
“This is simply not true,” another added. “If you weren’t paying attention to women’s college hoops say that instead.”
“We’re not blatantly lying. Caitlin was HER before the Natty Game and everyone knew about her before the Natty Game. Don’t do that,” said a third.
Another pointed to an interview she had with ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith in 2022.
Doesn’t look like Joy Taylor did her homework on that one.

Social media might be down incredibly bad as Lucia from Grand Theft Auto is going insanely viral.
GTA 6’s trailer 2 officially broke a record after the upcoming second look at the game, which has continued to take forever to come out.
GTA 6 broke the record for the longest wait between a first and second trailer for a Rockstar Games title ever.
Rockstar has built a rich world of criminals, lunatics, and thieves spanning from Liberty City to San Andreas and beyond. With GTA 6 on the horizon, fans have become ecstatic after seeing a picture of Lucia.
For those unaware, she is a female criminal in the game. Grand Theft Auto states that she did her time at a prison complex in the State of Leonida in the mid-2020s for an unknown crime.
As anticipation builds for the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, a picture shows Lucia stripped down to a two-piece bikini.

“They better have some awesome clothing to choose from. Gotta look cute while doing missions,” a second fan added.
A third fan knew they were no match for her: “If I was in a beauty contest against her, she’d get first place, and I’d get disqualified.”
“She’s beautiful, my sapphic heart can’t take it 🤧,” another X user added.
“not leaving my house anytime soon,” a fan stated about the impending release of the game.
“No arsenal, but ima be a gooner for sure, a sixth fan added.
One final fan added: “Anybody upset about a video game character needs to seriously reevaluate their life.”
Fans Have Waited A Long Time For Grand Theft Auto To Release New Game

Despite their hopes for a release this year fading, the community remains engaged in hopes that a second trailer will be released in early 2025 and a release date of the actual game will come out.
With each passing day, the desire for more news grows stronger.
Hopefully, 2025 will give the fans what they so desperately want.
