Candace Buckner back with another "banger" of an article.
The Athletic
@TheAthletic1h
The NBA wants the WNBA to grow, so why is potentially its biggest game of the season scheduled for a Thursday afternoon? The WNBA has gone from tax write-off to golden goose status, and deserves to be fought for. ✍️ @CandaceDBuckner nyti.ms/3USlBQn

The NBA wants the WNBA to grow. This Finals scheduling blunder won’t help (Gift Article)

The NBA, with its hands all over the WNBA's growth, needed to push for better solution than an afternoon Game 6 that could crown a champion.

I'm not reading all that. I'm happy for you though... Or sorry that happened.

Dream ownership on arena situation in open letter to Atlanta: "Two months ago, when the WNBA finalized playoff dates and times, we raised concerns that the W Finals schedule conflicted with NBA games at State Farm Arena ... Our concerns did not receive the attention, nor the urgency that they deserved."

Does that say 25-22 at halftime? After further consideration WNBA has decided to move Thursdays Game 6 WNBA Finals game to 3:45am est. First 1,000 in attendance get a complimentary continental breakfast.

If there was ever a time to rig a game, now is the time.

So, the league is definitely gonna figure out a way to force this into game 7 regardless to save themselves the epic embarrassment. Noted.

Almost as if they should stop sucking off the NBA teat and finally become their own league. This conversation seems to never be had among the WNBAs "biggest" public defenders.
Lindsay Schnell@Lindsay_SchnellOct 26
I have argued for YEARS that the NBA does not treat the WNBA like a premier product & this is just one more example. Every single player should be furious about this — and they should say it.

The biggest losers: Wine moms in Cali who are going to have to cancel their 9am Zumba classes in order to catch the game. An American tragedy

Caitlin Clark averaged 22.3 PPG &8.3 APG coming off injury yet a slow start disqualifies her from First Team?! Jackie avg 9.3 PPG through 6 games. If Caitlin avgd Jackie’s 18.9 PPG&6.8 APG for the season ppl would call her overrated. CC ALSO averaged more steals & blocks than her

New regulations + Apple TV has hurt F1 in a big way. Races are more predictable now than ever, barring rain, battery deployment to fake overtakes, robs fans of exciting wheel to wheel racing. Apple TV, far below Amazon, Netflix when it comes to viewing habits.
Adam Stern@A_S12Oct 26
Liberty Media CEO Derek Chang: "You no longer think about F1 as something that you've got to go to every race or watch every race on television to be a fan, right?" the-race.com/business/why-f1…

Why F1 is so sure its Apple TV deal is working

Formula 1’s pivot to Apple TV in the United States has been one of the biggest shifts in F1’s broadcast landscape in recent times - but is it paying off?

The Dream will host Game 6 in the 3,500-seat Gateway Center instead of the 17,000-seat State Farm Arena unless the WNBA makes changes to the series schedule, a team spokesperson tells FOS. frontofficesports.com/articl…

Site for Game 6 of WNBA Finals Still Up in Air

The Dream could end up hosting a Finals game at the 3,500-seat Gateway Center if the league doesn’t change the schedule.

This has to be the weakest 12pm slate of games since the college football season started. There is simply no excuse for this.

The WNBA has fined players from the Golden State Valkyries and the Atlanta Dream $30 each for failing to stand during the national anthem, an act viewed as disrespectful.
