Rep Marlin Stutzman details when the WNBA’s mistreatment of Caitlin Clark officially becomes a referendum on league commissioner Cathy Engelbert<\/p>\n
TheWNBAcan’t get out of its own way, and neither can commissioner Cathy Engelbert. To be fair, though, she’s working on her golf game, which I can somewhat respect.<\/p>\n
For those who missed it, Engelbert allegedly backed out of an interview with “The Dan Patrick Show” Friday afternoon. Both Engelbert and Patrick are at the American Century Championship celebritygolftournament in Nevada, and \u2014 according to Patrick \u2014 the WNBA’s\u00a0public relations\u00a0team instructed Engelbert to cancel.<\/p>\n
“We waited almost two hours for her. This was scheduled,” Patrick said during a four-minute segment in which he absolutely ripped Engelbert (politely, of course). “She was going to do a meeting in her hotel room, a conference call, and then she was going to join us… We’re standing by, we’re waiting to interview her.<\/p>\n
“Then we got word… that the commissioner said that the WNBA staff, the PR staff, said that she is not allowed to do this. They would prefer that she did not do this.”<\/p>\n

Just unfathomable levels of stupid coming out of the WNBA right now. They’ve destroyedCaitlin Clark, and, somehow, continue to make things worse.<\/p>\n
As for Engelbert backing out … the commish was seen hitting practice shots out of the bunker a mere 50 yards away after ditching the interview, and “The Dan Patrick Show” made sure to let the people at home see exactly how the beach day was going:<\/p>\n
Amazing. It’s like an episode of “The Office,” or “Seinfeld,” or “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” Take your pick, it all works.<\/p>\n
It’s the PERFECT clip for the WNBA right now: Cathy Engelbert shanking a ball out of the sand into the clubhouse while Dan Patrick rips her for skipping an interview a few yards up the fairway.<\/p>\n

What an awful golf shot to have the entire world see. Lordy, it’s my biggest nightmare. I HATE bunker shots. I’m scared to death of them.<\/p>\n
