    I have no problem with her behavior, either. She's a generational talent, and as such she's under an electron microscope where her every move is scrutinized. For those who dislike all the attention she gets and want to find flaws to "knock her down a few pegs" says more about them than her.

    I will say I do watch a lot of womens basketball. Worst officiating in any sport no matter the team. I see better officiating the high school level. You’re never going to win a argument on missed calls or bad calls but it would get annoying game in and game out. Caitlin Clark is a fierce competitor on the court but it’s her alter ego. She’s a amazing human being off the court and does so much for the community.

    Any time you have a player / singer / celebrity as a role model, you really need to ask yourself how bad of a parent are you or how bad of standards do you have so you need others to copy from. Then you debase them because they don't hold up to your standards.
    Just go look at Ja Morant with his partying and guns. I have seen worse behaviors existing and former players. LeBron with his flopping. Many many worse role models than Caitlin Clarke. And she isn't even out of college. I have seen ZERO role models to others that are even still learning as for themselves.

    Rich Eisen is certainly free to have his personal views on what is acceptable "on court" (on field, etc. in other sports) behavior. Likewise, he's free to have his personal views on what characteristics constitute being a "good role model." Accordingly, he's certainly well within his bounds to say that HE personally has "no problem" with "behavioral" and "leadership" traits that some others might find objectionable. That's because he's free as an individual to have his own standards and values ... and to impart the same to his kids if that's what he wants/chooses to do.
    HOWEVER, he needs to recognize and RESPECT that each and every other individual adult/parent NOT named "Rich Eisen" is equally just as entitled to have his/her opinion as to what constitutes "acceptable on court behavior" and "leadership/role model" behavior for their world view AND also to impart the same to his/her children. Why? Because those traits, values, and perspectives are PERSONAL ... and ALL parents have the right to teach their children.
    ACCORDINGLY, it is DISRESPECTFUL and flat-out WRONG for Rich Eisen (simply because he has the power of a microphone and media outlets) or anyone to DARE to get on their soapbox and proclaim that OTHERS who have perhaps more courteous and civil preferences have "no right" to believe as they do or to admonish bad behavior when attempting to help instruct and shape their children. HAVE SOME RESPECT FOR OTHER VIEWPOINTS !!!
    There was a time in the not too distant past when it would have been UNTHINKABLE for any athlete to behave disrespectfully or to taunt -- period. Then suddenly pro athl;etes were allowed to "get away" with a certain amount of it ... which then led to college players, and finally high school players starting to mimick the same nonsense. The final frontier is for young girls to become as foul and uncouth as all that. SOME wish to STOP that behavior, and merely having more traditional values does NOT make them "WRONG" in the slightest ... notwithstanding the reality that bad behavior is rampant and ubiquitous and/or the fact that Rich Eisen "has no problem" with it. Good for him, and he's free to allow his children to continue down the path of civility's decline ... BUT he is NOT free to chastise or try to prevent others with different LEGITIMATE viewponts and values to teach their kids their own way.
