The WNBA scheduled a potential championship-clinching Finals game for 12:30 PM ET on a weekday. In the middle of the workday. How can you possibly expect to grow your audience when you make decisions like this? The WNBA leadership is not serious.

Seems like the perfect time to to have a game with a boatload of Anti-American haters. Maybe 5AM better.

The big concern should be whether the players will be out of bed in time for the game.

You know the answer, it's in decline. No one cares about the WNBA, it's the Real Housewives series on steroids. After a while the train wreck is too much to watch. Hate to be the @ESPN Exec that signed this deal.

I thought the WNBA air time ended when The Fever were beat out...its really still happening??

They just want the free check from the NBA.

The WNBA avoided competing with real sports for an audience.

Because no one would even watch it in Primetime.

Maybe they’re tired of people pointing out how freaking retarded they are and just want the season to be over. What a pathetic organization. Fire everyone involved.

Their only audience is unemployed activists and retired Leftist Boomers. These are the same people protesting (rioting) in the middle of a workday. So the game was actually scheduled perfectly.

I think during the daytime is progress vs having it in the evening competing against the World Series and NFL. But yes I agree leadership didn't fully think it through when moving it to the day. (scheduling is a big deal and actually very simple to do.)

No league has cannibalized itself quite like the WNBA….

Well they haven’t made a single penny of profit in their 30-year existence, so what are we expecting here?🤷🏼‍♀️ Absolute charity league.

I guess the people who care about the WNBA don't work?

If there is a champion crowned from the day game, will the players complain that the clubs are not yet open in the afternoon? Similar to last year when they were rejected from entering the club and made a big deal

Not worried about growing audience when subsidized. No incentive

You know what would happen if they went up against the WC, CFB, NFL, NHL or NBA in prime time. A ratings masacre.

Perfect. Now they've got an excuse for the ratings before the game even tips off.
126
Would argue the opposite. They aren’t competing with any other sport at that time. U really think people are going to watch this over the NFL?? 🤦🏽‍♂️ There’s a reason the MLB WS schedule did not include Thu/Sun. NFL is King 👑

You'd think the WNBA would have realized that their clientele that is available to watch a game during work hours can no longer buy merch with EBT.

The same leadership that lets their players duck standing for our National Anthem and won’t have the balls to say WHAT A WOMAN IS. Screw them. Hope they go bankrupt. @wnba

Clay, the only reason why I know anything about that stupid sport is because of following your X account. Literally, no one cares. If it was not subsidized, it would be long gone already.

Haven’t watched a game since the lynching of Clark.

There fans are all unemployed losers so it works

No one gives a RAT whether they play at 12:30PM or 3:00PM or 8:00PM or WHO THE H Watches a league of Black Hooked On Phonics Losers??? No one gives a CRAP about the WNBA and no one ever will!

The NBA should DEFUND the WNBA

Nobody is watching anyway.

It doesn't matter to me. I don't watch the WNBA.

Isn't that 9:30 am in the '"Golden State '"😂

Wednesday? Fantastic. That means this nonsense is over.

They don’t care about money. The NBA gives them plenty every year so they can focus on their agenda and crap on actual basketball fans.

Ever hear of the NCAA tournament? Masters golf tournament? Major League Baseball playoffs. You’re a grossly stupid lowlife scumbag with zero life besides whining. All your money talk and you’re still fucking miserable! And you know it!

No mention of the WORLD SERIES. Come on man!
