Dave Portnoy Slams WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert Over Dan Patrick Show Snub

The WNBA has faced a barrage of criticism from various quarters, including fans, media personalities, and even political figures, regarding its treatment of rising star Caitlin Clark. This wave of discontent has now drawn in prominent online personality Dave Portnoy, founder and CEO of Barstool Sports.

Portnoy unleashed his criticism following the abrupt cancellation of WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert's scheduled appearance on the popular "Dan Patrick Show." The interview was called off at the last minute, a decision that has clearly agitated Portnoy.

In his strong reaction, Portnoy did not hold back, specifically calling Engelbert a "total coward" for avoiding the interview. The timing of the cancellation, amidst the significant public discussion surrounding Clark's integration into the league, has amplified the scrutiny on Engelbert's leadership.
