Mac Engel Goes to Sicily & The WNBA Needs to Get Out of Its Own Way | Engel Angle

Mac Engel of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram is back from a exhausting trip to Sicily, where he shares a surprising celebrity encounter, visits ancient Greek and Roman ruins that still influence modern stadium design, and gets inspired by the real-life filming locations from the latest Indiana Jones film. Then Mac shifts gears to tackle the WNBA at 30 years old, arguing that the league's biggest obstacle to mainstream success is not sexism or misogyny, but rather a media and leadership culture too distracted by off-court narratives to focus on a product that is genuinely better than it has ever been. From Caitlin Clark's treatment on the court to Commissioner Kathy Engelbert's media missteps, Mac makes the case that the WNBA needs to get out of its own way and let the game do the talking.
