| Is it possible to either pin this thread, or create another pinned All-Star thread, so folks can post stuff on it throughout the weekend?

actually when you look at the wnba website, it doesn't show there is a tv showing of the game while the other games show where the broadcasts are on.

| Turner doesn't care about women's basketball. The NBA selling NBA TV and the NBA.com suite of websites to Turner Sports was one of the worst things that could have happened to the WNBA.

More than anything, a sub like that sounds a bit pointless, but All Star games are a farce to me anyway so I'm good with playing around with a random idea or two like this.
I can't see how one sub per quarter is going to result in "mass" anything, let alone chaos. I guess it will be an opportunity to create a short-term mismatch. Which really doesn't matter in an ASG, but in a real game it could be used strategically.

That makes me so sad. Wish Dewanna and Candice could have found a way through all the sleepless nights and physical separations for work.

It's so weird...go to the WNBA site and you can't find anything showing the time for today's events. Had to go to the Aces site (thanks, chasing rat salad etc...) to find the time. Like, why wouldn't it be front and center: "see the skills and three point shooting contest today at 7:30 (3:30 Vegas time) on(whatever it's being shown on, which I can't remember now but will go hunting when the time comes)" aargh.
Then they will wonder why viewership is down or use the lack of viewership as an excuse to never show it again. So frustrating.

| Around the Horn on ESPN had the experimental substitution rule as a topic today. All the panelists liked the idea.

| Maybe it's just me, but judging by social media, there seems to be a ton of media in Vegas for the ASG. Don't think there was this much attention last year.

Yeah this entire weekend here has aces written all over it
.From huge billboards outside with Jumbotron hotel advertisments. The fan fest event was very cool and creative. I bought a few shirts no jerseys to buy unfortunately but overall so far it’s been a great experience. The beach party tonight is going to be out of control. Free GA with a game ticket and if the skills challenge crowd is any indicator I believe it will be sold out.
