Man I’m still heated the Aces have done nothing all season but it makes sense considering the Gm is useless and living off the work of someone else She’s never had to make any moves because the team was set when she came. We literally got that Dyke Kristen on the sidelines doing nothing we needed forward depth and nope we can’t do anything to try to even get Billings

shyt they better bring back big Liz if they wanna repeat

The more people watch of this season, the more they see the WNBA is a 3rd rate organization starting at the top.

So the storm head coach Noelle Quinn was mad that sides left her started in


She got some nerve, when the storm played the sparks earlier this year. She let the storm score 9 points in like the final 30 seconds when they were up big , it was disrespectful as fukk . They was doing the most

Impressive selling out the TD garden.

while I agree with Carrington,

Nationally, every network was DNC and ESPN still had the LLWS. Unless they were gonna start that game at 9, the only way that game was gonna get any national coverage was either on Ion or CBSSN (cuz let's be real, ESPN2 wasn't taking off fantasy football coverage for that game unless CC was in it)

Carrington's point was they knew for over a year. It's up to the WNBA to figure it out. Their leadership is severely lacking

at the very least it could have been on NBATV over the Liberty vs Wings

the stuff I mentioned was also known for over a year. Basically the WNBA shoulda saved that game for a weekend. What I'll give the WNBA is that they haven't cared for this stuff normally because it didn't matter. They were gonna get ignored anyway, so do whatever. Now that they've gotten bigger, they're tryna see where they fit.

Next summer will be a very interesting landscape for summer sports. No Olympics, now they can really game plan their schedule to factor into timeslots that otherwise weren't given to them. Now that end of July-mid August window they can go even further and hammer out the National schedule and get that right before the move to NBC.

That’s hard

We are coli posters and we understood that coming into this season there were going to be a lot of new eyeballs on the league so that's why I'm not really giving them a pass, it seems like they didn't have much of a plan to promote the league like a top echelon sport and their scheduling has been laughable, putting all these games on at the same time, having days where there aren't games, having weekends where the whole afternoon is wide open etc..

I'll be interested to see what they do for next year
