Bill Plaschke brought to tears as ‘Around the Horn’ nears its final show

Bill Plaschke was moved to tears during an emotional tribute on ESPN’s ‘Around the Horn’ as the show prepares to end its 22-year run on May 23.

"Langston Dennis, what a young human!"

"They have to hold that loss and think about what they have done."

"My records will never be broken. But my heart is broken."

"2025 is going to be even better for all of us. Especially for Around the Horn."

"This is history people."

"Something needs to be done about that, whether it's access to the locker room or their own version of apology, because that's unacceptable."

"It's so weak."

"For Caitlin Clark, this is a missed opportunity."

"I talked about how Caitlin Clark has become an avatar for people to express their disdain for Black women."
