I've been waiting for this game ALL DAY, and I'll have to wait another 3 minutes of eternity to see the Beckham Cam because of a WNBA game!!!! Nothing against the WNBA (I'm an Atlanta Dream season ticket holder...stop giggling), but ESPN only shows fussball once a week! Cut a guy a break!!!
Oh dear, another Women's Basketball game. Ok, I am getting real tired of this. Is ESPN intentionally scheduling women's basketball before MLS games? Is it trying to kill off MLS Thursday night? These games never end because the fouling is almost constant, and with the endless timeouts the last two minutes of the game make me want to throw my plasma off the balcony. On the same note, one of the many reasons women's basketball sucks is that I can't tell the difference between guards, forwards and centers. Oh, and it would not be so bad if the women were attractive. But most of these gals are butt ugly........like 99% of them.
Wnba The one thing that I love about MLS Primetime Thursday is that it seems like whenever I tune in I get to watch a thrilling finish to a WNBA game instead of a good chunk of MLS. Who needs the Galaxy vs. Chivas anyway? Foul another one. Call another TO, you're only down by 20. What a joke this has become.
Wtfnba Are we going to have miss the beginning of each thursday night game so that we can watch the incredibly compelling WNBA What genious is responsibile for this scheduling? I can hardly wait for the eighth overtime!
it's a f*cking 18-point lead. this is ridiculous. unfortunately, though, i'm too worn down from this week to do anything about it, like send an email or write a letter. damnit, this sucks.
Re: Oh dear, another Women's Basketball game. Any other sexist comments you'd like to throw out there? Gotta say em all, apparently.
Re: Oh dear, another Women's Basketball game. what part is sexist? Do you think these women are attractive? Can you tell the difference between guards and centers?
Re: Oh dear, another Women's Basketball game. regardless there shouldnt be a commercial break with 22 seconds left...
OMFG. This is f*cking absurd. I was really pissed about the marathon game the other week but at least it was a tie game. There is no excuse on earth to show this sh*t when one team is winning by 20 points, though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFYgnsIXQF0
At least this one is not going to triple overtime. ESPN really needs to learn how to properly schedule these things. You know, with extra time planned into the end of hoops games when they start calling timeouts every 5 seconds.
Four threads about this? Merged. Take a look at the block for the MLS game: 2.5 hours. Kickoff is at :15 past the hour. They planned ahead for this.
Just another reason to hate David Stern. The WNBA is a joke. Their final last year in Detroit drew about 200 fans so they had to give away the house. Get rid of it. No one cares. No one will ever care.
Don't get me started Just for laughs, the 4 finalists for the team's name were: Dream Flight Surge Sizzle See, it could have been worse. And...Surge (Resurgens) is still available for the Atlanta MLS name! *waits for this thread to be edited by DavidP* Repped.
Here's a little inside info on the WNBA. My business works with the Timberwolves on their advertising and part of our "business agreements" are that the Wolves will contract for "X" dollars in advertsing services andin turn, we buy up large blocks of Lynx Tickets at an agreed percentage to the contracted services every Summer to help out their ticket reps. We use the tickets as give aways to our clients or in most cases, don't use them. - we just buy them to keep the Wolves account. The number of actual gate paying patrons for a Lynx game is so low that it pales to what a decent cineplex pulls for it's 7pm shows.
