WNBA WORRIED as WNBA Playoff Ratings CRASH Without Caitlin Clark

The WNBA playoffs began this past weekend...with eight teams vying for their spot in the WNBA Finals. Caitlin Clark made her debut in the WNBA playoffs on Sunday...where Caitlin Clark drew impressive ratings despite competing with the NFL. Unfortunately for Cathy Engelbert...WNBA ratings for the remaining playoff games were abysmal.

We reveal and react to WNBA ratings and attendance for the playoffs. We discuss the real possibility of Caitlin Clark being eliminated from the playoffs Wednesday night...and what that means for WNBA ratings going forward. We also explain why the media and WNBA players are getting exactly what they deserve...and predict embarrassing WNBA ratings for the remainder of the postseason.

CC brought me to the W. When her season is done, so am I. FULL STOP!

[rocketman]

After that deliberate shot to CC'S eye and no call, no fine, no nothing!?!? I have no interest in watching street thug basketball. Stephen A is correct. The WNBA is a mess.

[frannyjettie]

When CC is done playing this year, I'm done watching the WNBA.

[nealbrownellthecrazyinvent]

if CC goes to Europe, I'll watch her there

[swong]

How can you expect Fever to advance when the refs can't even protect CC from flagrant 2 fouls? Where's the memo?

[JuneHolloway]

Fever lost. Out of playoffs. Game end, Mabrey ran the court pointing to her eye. Classless act. Done with WNBA.

[nomadicsenior]

If CC is out so am I. Dirty players and an overwhelming incompetence commissioner is of little interest to me.

[markc]

I'm Australian, and I've been watching the American WNBA solely because of Catilan Clarke.
If she isn't playing, I'm not interested in watching.
It's almost like she's the WNBA's MVP.

[KaiHouston-mj]

Self inflicted problem. If you allow flagrant fouls on your star, you deserve to pay for it.

[Bruce-ysxb]

Absolutely not!!! CC is the box office draw. No other player comes close.

[tonyperez]

Caitlin Clark just got knocked out of the playoffs. Im boycotting the WNBA

[taylorparker]

I love Caitlin Clark. The WNBA is a WOKE JOKE!

[pudgieayer]

They screwed themselves over the poke in the eye of CC!! The coach claims of the league being theirs was the ultimate challenge!!!😂😂😂 the silence of the league commissioner of sich racism has been a huge part of the problem!!! When assaults on CC go unpunished families don't want their children exposed to hatred!!! Fair competition and good sportsmanship is all that's was required but this activists league couldn't do it!! The unfair awarding of the MVP by constantly changing the requirements was a bitter experience for most fair minded individuals!! Award it before halfway through the season was the most aggravating part!! When CC'S Fever is eliminated they're going back to what happened with the Olympics!! Few attendees at the arena and dismal viewership in TV ratings!!! 😂😂😂 It's only going to get worse!!!

[georgeplimpton]

Without Caitlin, they're a dumpster fire - which is EXACTLY why she should play in the European league and let the WNBA fall apart!

[garylester]

Jealous ? Mad? Racism? Horrible calls from the ref's? Hate? Envious? coaching? Blatant hateful fouls? All against one skinny white gril who brings it all. SHAME

[audannwill]

I do not even care for basketball. I only tune in for Caitlin Clark. When CC is gone, I am gone.

[Willard-lt]

The commissioner, and I use that term loosely, is about to find out who fans are tuning in to watch.

[hahafalseflag]

If Caitlin ain't playing I ain't watching

[oldguydude]

I was about to start buying merch but after the black assassin took out Caitlins eyes theres nothing worth watching now .watching poor talent trying to advertise their hair extensions fake eyelashes and dagar like fingernails it like tring to eat hot icecream. SEND THE WNBA A MESSAGE.

[timmyfoxworth]

It will crash because wnba has done nothing, said nothing will do nothing about violence against Clark.
