Sophie Cunningham Drops A Surprising Truth Bomb On Who's To Blame For Ugly Caitlin Clark IncidentSophie Cunningham (Photo via Imagn Images)
Sophie Cunningham has called out who she thinks is to blame for the ugly incident that saw her ejected from a game against the Connecticut Sun last week.

The Indiana Fever guard was involved in a wild skirmish with Jacy Sheldon, committing a hard foul on the Sun player on a fast break before they squared up and got kicked out of the game. It’s believed that her actions came about as retaliation for an earlier foul, given that Sheldon had poked Clark in the eye right before she got knocked to the floor by teammate Marina Mabrey.

Cunningham addressed the altercations this weekend and pointed fingers at the referees, suggesting it’s her job to protect her teammates.

“I think the refs had a lot to do with that. It was a build-up for a couple of years now of them just not, not protecting the star player in the WNBA. And so at the end of the day, I’m going to protect my teammates, that’s what I do,” she remarked.

Sophie Cunningham reckons other teams have been getting away with cheap shots on Caitlin Clark, and the referees have allowed it to get to a point where players aren’t even bothered about fouling her.

It sounds like she will continue to have her teammates’ backs moving forward, despite the recent ejection and ensuing fine.

Clint Eastwood turned 95 recently, but it hasn’t been an easy year for the legendary actor and director.

On Tuesday, fans across the country poured out messages of support as news spread about his recent struggles. Eastwood has been mourning the sudden death of his longtime partner, Christina Sandera, who passed away from a heart attack earlier this year.

The Hollywood icon has kept a low profile since her passing. For fans who’ve followed his career for decades, seeing Eastwood go through this personal loss has struck a chord. Though the actor has rarely been seen in public in recent months, his son Scott Eastwood shared a welcome update that gave many people a reason to breathe a little easier.

Scott Eastwood, in a recent interview, reassured fans that his father is holding up. “He’s doing good,” he said. “He’s a survivor, a trouper. He was born coming out of the Great Depression, and then he was young during World War II. He saw a lot of struggle.” That perspective seems to be carrying Eastwood through yet another chapter of hardship.

 

Supporters didn’t hesitate to show their love. Social media lit up with tributes, memories, and heartfelt messages. Many highlighted not only his contributions to film but also his resilience as a person.

“There are literally hundreds of reasons why a man doesn’t get better with age,” one fan posted on X.

Another fan commented, “HE IS NEVER GONNA STOP!!!!”

Another fan chimed in, “I hope he blesses us with his presence for many more years!”

Photographs from December 2018 show Eastwood attending the premiere of The Mule with Sandera by his side. The two had been together for years, and her sudden loss clearly left a mark on him. Though the grief remains, Eastwood isn’t ready to slow down completely. In an interview with Kurier on May 30, he reflected on aging with intent. “There’s no reason why a man can’t get better with age,” he said. “And I have much more experience today. Sure, there are directors who lose their touch at a certain age, but I’m not one of them.”

Clint Eastwood, who has eight children- Laurie, Kimber, Alison, Francesca, Kyle, Kathryn, Scott and Morgan- continues to lean on family during this time. For fans, the hope is simple: that he keeps creating, keeps going, and, most of all, keeps finding strength in the days ahead.
