After rewriting the league’s history books last season, Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark is arguably the most famous player in the WNBA.
Among her many accolades, Clark scored the most points (769) and most three-pointers (122) by a rookie in a single season and set a new WNBA record for most assists (337). The 23-year-old made an unprecedented impact off the court as well, shattering viewership and attendance records across the league.
Due to her star power, the NFL invited Clark to speak on a panel at the NFL’s annual league meeting in Palm Bach. Clark, who rocked an orange pantsuit, discussed women’s sports and growing interest in flag football with tennis legend Serena Williams and two-time Super Bowl champion Eli Manning.
While the panel was not live-streamed for the public, members of the Kansas City Chiefs’ front office, including owner Clark Hunt, attended the meeting.
“It was interesting to hear Caitlin say, ‘If flag football was around when I was growing up, I might not be a basketball player,’” Hunt recalled to Front Office Sports.
While the world of women’s basketball takes a collective sigh of relief that flag football was not around while Clark was growing up, the AP’s Female Athlete of Year’s interest in professional flag football is clearly huge.
Chiefs president Mark Donovan expects attention over men’s and women’s leagues to grow exponentially following its inclusion the 2028 Olympics Games in Los Angeles.

“Flag is real. All levels of flag are real. I’m really, personally, bullish on this,” Donovan said. “When you add in all the pieces that are coming, including the things happening around women’s sports, the investment going into that, I think flag is poised to be enormous.
“I think the Olympics piece is a compelling point for any [NFL team] owner. You’re going to see us get aggressive in establishing the organizing bodies, the accreditations. … There are plenty of people who would want to invest in [this].”

EUPHRATES RIVER PULLS BACK — ANCIENT STRUCTURES AND STRANGE PHENOMENA EMERGE
A 𝓈𝒽𝓸𝒸𝓀𝒾𝓃𝑔 phenomenon is unfolding along the Euphrates River, where receding waters are revealing ancient structures, massive statues, and mysterious underground tunnels. Witnesses report bizarre whirlpools and strange lights in the sky, leading many to speculate about biblical prophecies and the implications of these extraordinary discoveries. As waters recede, the Euphrates is unveiling hidden secrets that have lain dormant for centuries. Local fishermen have observed violent whirlpools forming unexpectedly, with water seemingly erupting from the riverbed. This unusual activity has sparked intense curiosity and concern among residents and scientists alike. Witnesses describe the river behaving as if it were alive, with swirling currents pulling boats and nets toward their centers. Experts suggest that geological changes beneath the surface may be causing these dramatic water movements, yet the timing and scale have raised eyebrows, drawing attention to ancient texts and prophecies. Drones surveying the newly 𝓮𝔁𝓹𝓸𝓼𝓮𝓭 riverbed have captured images of what appear to be the foundations of ancient settlements, possibly belonging to lost Mesopotamian towns. Archaeologists are eager to explore these structures, which may hold insights into civilizations that flourished along the Euphrates thousands of years ago. Amidst these discoveries, a colossal humanoid statue has emerged from the mud, captivating researchers with its unusual features. Unlike typical Mesopotamian sculptures, this figure lacks inscriptions and exhibits a smooth, polished surface. Its origins remain a mystery, fueling speculation about ancient cultures and their beliefs. Adding to the intrigue, residents have reported sightings of glowing spheres in the night sky, described as “circular lightning.” Scientists are investigating these phenomena, which may be linked to rare atmospheric conditions, but the coincidence with the river’s strange activities has many on edge. As the discoveries continue, experts have uncovered a vast network of underground tunnels beneath the Euphrates, suggesting human activity from a time long forgotten. Within these tunnels, researchers found a large wooden vessel, reminiscent of ancient transport ships, hinting at a bustling trade network that once thrived along the river. The situation escalated when military forces from neighboring countries began mobilizing around the Euphrates, driven by fears of what might be hidden beneath the surface. Tensions are rising as governments demand control over the area, with reports of strange geological formations prompting urgent investigations. With each new revelation, the connection to biblical prophecy grows stronger. As the Euphrates continues to reveal its secrets, many are left wondering if these events are mere natural occurrences or signs of a deeper, divine significance. The world watches closely, anticipating what else may surface from this ancient river.
