Yeesh, if thatâs the best list you can come up, you might be better off sticking with Fred. Thereâs gotta be something better out there. |
Cooper has 2 titles that's already better than "i made the finals" Fred.

Isn't 2002 basically Forever Ago in basketball years though?

Why doesnât the Dream play at Georgia State Universityâs 3,854 seat arena in downtown Atlanta? Their real attendance does not appear to exceed 3,854.

If the Liberty move to WCC and Mystics move to their arena had been known when Dream found out they had to move from Phillips perhaps it might have happened. There was a pre-season scrimmage for STH against Australia there a few years ago and it looked much smaller than that to me. As I recall it was bleachers not seats. However, that might have been in practice gym.
Neither MCCammish or GA State have anything like the amenities or the lucrative Luxury Suites of Phillips.

It was 2014 when I was there. Don't really recall it that well but it looks like the place. It is actually on a MARTA stop. I took MARTA so I don't know what the parking situation would be like. Phillips provides much more opportunity for walkup ticket sales because the CNN Center with food court and shopping is right next door.

Too small. We drew 4900 tonight, which looked about accurate.

Not a good year for a WNBA team to give more accurate attendance figures.

Looks like it is 60%+ bleachers, but the bleachers have a back.

You will miss those suites, as will pilight, T.I., and Greg and NeNe Leakes, but I donât see that as being a big enough revenue source to offset the reduced rent and prevent a move,even with the extravagant parties allegedly taking place... |
If you are missing luxury boxes did you guys go to the Callaway Club?
It was open. The view of the court is amazing. Concessions, luxury seating etc.

edit:My image posting sucks but check out the link. I enjoyed the Callaway Club - I didn't enjoy Skylar putting up 30 shots.

Maybe they should hire Van Chancellor

It would just be an epic collapse by Dallas if they finish on a 11 game losing streak and Vegas makes the playoffs instead. |
The way the Aces have been going it might yet be Chicago as the #8 seed

Using emojis for anything or everything is an unoriginal idea anywaysâI see people, sports teams, etc. doing it all the time on Twitter. |
So you and others are going out of your way to diss Shades about using emojis?
A new definition for the word "petty."

I was defending Shades from Ay Mate's accusations of copying the Connecticut Suns Fan page, saying that using emojis is in such widespread usage, I don't think anybody can accuse anyone of copying anybody when it comes to using them since (seemingly) everybody is using emojis for everything today.

I've never used emojis in my life, but think Shades is trying to be creative by using them. However, I don't care for them in the game thread titles because, to me, they just add clutter but no information. I think they'd be better used, if at all, in the body of the OP. |
