The #USWNT without Girma and with Emma Hayes refusing to move on from Lindsey Heaps in midfield is a very tough watch against the best team in the world. Think that’s enough of this one for me.

If you chop a player’s legs out from under her after the ball is gone and act like you can’t possibly believe you were called for a foul you should get booked for being an asshole #uswnt

Also, CBS/Paramount+ does a lot of things wrong in terms of coverage but the Golazo Show for Champions League is not one of those things. It's very good, even if Nigel Reo-Coker does get on my nerves #UCL

Statements just came out from Cathy Engelbert, Larry Gottesdiener & Andrew Saltzman (President of Business Enterprise for the Hawks and SFA) about games 3 + 4 of the #WNBA Finals moving to @statefarmarena.bsky.social. “This is what the players and the fans deserve,” Larry Gottesdiener said.
“We are grateful for the efforts made by numerous stakeholders, including the Dream, the Valkyries, the Hawks, State Farm Arena, and NBC Sports and USA Sports,” said Cathy Engelbert, WNBA Commissioner. “The change of venue dramatically expands the seating capacity and ensures that the Dream will be able to provide an extraordinary atmosphere for the first WNBA Finals game to be played in the Atlanta market since 2013. We are pleased that thousands more fans across the Southeast region will have the opportunity to experience the ultimate WNBA action – the WNBA Finals – in person.”
 
“This is what the players and the fans deserve,” said Larry Gottesdiener, Atlanta Dream majority owner. “We are grateful to all of the stakeholders who worked together to resolve the conflicts and make this happen.” 
 
“We are thrilled that we will be able to accommodate the Dream as they host Games 3 and 4 of the WNBA Finals at State Farm Arena. Playing for a championship is special, and we want the Dream to feel the full support of the city during this amazing run,” said Andrew Saltzman, President of Business Enterprise and Chief Commercial Officer of the Atlanta Hawks and State Farm Arena.

I’d never heard of Shane Gillis until this SNL debacle and no wonder. Nothing he said on that stage was actually funny, but all the men in social media comment sections insisting that “iT wAs JuSt A jOkE, iTs CoMeDy, YoU cAnT tAkE a JoKe” are exactly why it’s such a problem. Fuck’s sake.

I can’t say for sure if he’s more Stars or Bruins affiliated, but regardless at least neither of you have to support an offense as bad as the Aggies’… thanks, Wings. 🫩

Their playoff games - plus 4 or 5 regular season ones - have been at State Farm and it’ll be their primary home venue again next season so not sure what you’re getting at here

JZ @jzimmermann11.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
I’m gonna be incredibly annoying about this for a while. The Hawks - who posted that dumb “congrats to the Dream” photo with Hawks players & logos - might play in my city but they’re villains to me now. Or, the W couldn’t have worked with all parties to adjust the Finals by a day after 2 sweeps?!

JZ @jzimmermann11.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
Preferred venue (State Farm Arena) has a concert (something called Sombr), Hawks regular season home opener, and another Hawks game

JZ @jzimmermann11.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
Same to all of that! We’re in Lakewood Heights so Gateway is pretty convenient as well but would’ve made the trek to Gas South, I assume the team worried if enough people would tho. I’ll never forgive the Hawks or whoever this Sombr artist is for this debacle.

JZ @jzimmermann11.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
I have never heard of Sombr before this debacle and now he/they/idk are my mortal enemy and I hope they have a miserable tour and never release a hit song or album for the rest of eternity

JZ @jzimmermann11.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
My best guess is they decided Gas South is just too far (I fully recognize there are some Dream fans up that way but I’d imagine not the majority). All I can figure for McCamish is the Dream lose some of that built-in home court advantage of knowing the hoops, rims, locker rooms, etc? But idk
110
JZ @jzimmermann11.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
Yeah I wondered the same, but my best guess is the Dream having not played there would give up at least some of the sort of built-in home court advantage of knowing the hoops, rims, locker rooms, any other court oddities, etc. Can’t say it for certain but that’s all I can figure.

JZ @jzimmermann11.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
This is really just such garbage. The Hawks ain’t getting a dime of my money for as long as I live. And who/what the fuck is Sombr that couldn’t move their concert???? The Dream and Atlanta deserves so much better than this nonsense and it’s INFURIATING. #dream #wnba

Mannnnnnn this sucks so hard. Just doesn’t sit right with me that some concert and a regular season NBA game at State Farm get priority over the Dream in the WNBA Finals (no, I’m not dumb, I understand how things work but I don’t have to agree with it). Feels like Atlanta are getting done wrong.

JZ @jzimmermann11.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
I assume the alternate options are: Gateway Center - great vibe & the Dream are used to it, but surely too small for Finals Gas South - bigger capacity but it’s in fkn Duluth, at least an hour with traffic from downtown McCamish (GT) - smaller than SF, & GT homecoming 10/24 could be chaotic

JZ @jzimmermann11.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
That the Dream still haven’t sorted out where they’re playing their WNBA Finals (!!) home games and can’t sell tickets until they do is a bit troubling. Should be State Farm but there are conflicts - Hawks home opener 10/24 and something called Sombr has a concert 10/22. Let Atlanta show up!!

I’m not really convinced by Lily taking this penalty over Soph to begin with but then to stutter step it? No more of those for you until after the World Cup, sorry, those are the rules. #uswnt

I don’t want to fully overreact because Spain are obviously very very good but if Emma Hayes isn’t willing to accept that Heaps needs to get phased out of being a starter on this #uswnt side ASAP they ain’t winning shit next summer in Brazil. Everything she’s done in the past is, well, the past.

Rhyne talking on ESPN after the game sounded pretty optimistic that Lish can be back for the finals, which would be a VERY needed boost against either the Valkyries or Aces. #dream #wnba

This has been some great playoff basketball yet again. Dream have done a nice job limiting Stewie and forcing the Liberty into some low-percentage shots but they’ve made enough of ‘em. Need Angel and Rhyne to keep attacking, and Izzy too. Naz needs to find a couple buckets too. #dream #liberty #wnba
