Caitlin Clark's season is over. The Sun eliminated Clark's Fever on Wednesday. To many viewers, they have no interest in the WNBA season if Clark is not playing.
ESPN commentator David Dennis Jr. hopes that is the case.

It will be my pleasure to watch your ratings tank, Doofus.
A lot of these vicious “jernalist” creeps need a serious “tune-up”.
Wait, are you telling me that there is a professional basketball league in which the players are girls?
“ and their toxicity isn’t needed. Let us enjoy things.”
So he wants the audience to go from thousands watching with Caitlin, back down to the normal dozens watching ?
I miss Norm.
They're getting away with this kind of behavior because they're not worried about making a profit.
Reverse psychology.
Me too. A great Canadian.
This is the leftist mindset, let’s hope it happens. Tired of these idiots. Btw as usual the left projects and the toxicity comes from them, but in their biosphere of “superiority “ they can’t see this
They would be smart to have Kaitlyn come in and broadcast the games

It doesn’t matter. Caitlin said she’s going to become a professional golfer. I think she’s tired of being beat up in the W. I’ve seen her swing on video and she’s really good.
