I am the rare person who will get to watch a 12:30 pm game and would have had to miss an 8pm game and still think that this is an incredible blunder

Honestly poetic. A franchise that has led the charge in taking position player pitching from quirky happenstance to roster strategy - just one of dozens of aesthetically perverting “innovations” in service of being cheap doing this as we barrel toward a lockout in service of owners being cheap.

Stupid franchise is going to end this game with a position player on the mound and I’m going to scream.

I don’t think Veronica Burton can just be a passive observer for this whole series. At some point your starting point guard has to assert herself to some degree

they need a tenth guy or?

New: Mayor Zohran Mamdani and a group of his friends have been secretly using the NYPD Police Academy’s gymnasium in Queens to play pickup basketball — scrambling some operations at the facility. w/ @grahamrayman.bsky.social & Joe Anuta www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

congrats to this man but we just lost the one good liberty analyst

So here's the news. I have accepted a position with the Los Angeles Sparks' front office. I am excited beyond adequate words, really. I had to say a proper goodbye to my public work, and specifically to NetsDaily, though trust that I could not say it all: www.netsdaily.com/site-news/11...

The Dream were the 2 seed in 2018 and averaged 4100 fans. The organization correctly thought putting 3500 fans in a 3500 capacity space was better than 4000 fans in a 17k capacity space.

I agree, move it to Barclays Center, Brooklyn, New York

honestly I kind of think if you can't think to come up with a plan for an arena for a clinching game before three days out, maybe you lose that home game altogether idk

people really do not remember the immediate vibe shift when the Dream moved from a sad, empty State Farm to a raucus Gateway. Gateway was lauded at the time!!!

Brendan@bigb.bsky.social

The Dream should have thought about that when they decided to make the Gateway place their home arena. I’m sure the Hawks deserve some blame for that but the Dream seem unserious. And now the valks pay the price

there is a battle within me. one side wants to vote as soon as possible and the other wants to hold out for that glorious Halloween sticker

Lindsey Boylan@lindseyboylan.bsky.social

Show us your “I voted” stickers!!!!

As a long time follower of the wnba I can come to no other conclusion than “this is a very ‘wnba’ way to have handled this”

Richard Cohen@richardcohen.bsky.social

Again: Plan A was clearly "let's hope it ends in 5". Absolutely ridiculous. #WNBA

no I’m sorry but playing at the small arena, their actual home arena they play games at all season, is a far superior outcome than the road team playing at 9:30 am their fans’ time on a Thursday!!!!!

Marisa Ingemi@mingemi.bsky.social

I don’t think the game could have been at Gateway that’s not a real option but the NBA needed to move that game

Just on my block from one avenue to the next the crosswalk is blocked by a parked car and all three fire hydrants are blocked by parked cars. General Zohran bringing the fight to the war on cars when

a lot of people really just want films to be Wikipedia pages lol

A day after seeing it, really questioning their decision to not establish that she is a court-proven liar in the film. Could have taken less than 5 minutes and would have added to the film’s exploration of manipulation and self-delusion.

Jackie should have been first team

Alexa Philippou@alexaphilippou.bsky.social

All-WNBA selections have been announced. First team: Olivia Miles, Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell, Breanna Stewart, A'ja Wilson. Second team: Paige Bueckers, Jackie Young, Rhyne Howard, Angel Reese, Shakira Austin

Reflects poorly on Volpe, reflects even worse on the team. You don't know how to shape communications with your top prospect so that he can internalize and use your data?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!

Steve@stevesmith24.bsky.social

Anthony Volpe being unreceptive to analytics is wild to me. If you all of a sudden suck at hitting, you’d think you’d be willing to try anything to become good again.

Kind of funny we got one of the tightest , most competitive finals of recent memory in ‘24, pushed the finals to seven games and immediately got served two stinkers

Players with three points in this game Sika Kone (one minute played) Madina Okot (one minute played) Veronica Burton (29 minutes played)

Golden State absolutely stole a win and Atlanta has won two in blowout fashion Maybe Golden State can steal another one at home but it’s feeling like five games
