I assumed they were correcting the misspelling of Stricklen’s name

Just watched a vlog that Courtney Williams’s girlfriend posted and in it Courtney said she was sent home early from practice (yesterday) because a player on the team tested positive for COVID. Does anyone know what that might mean in terms of their game on Friday? I thought the Dream was awfully quiet over the past 2 days and that may be why.


The player who has contracted covid is Cheyenne Parker... who apparently... is the only player on the team... who chose... not to get vaccinated. Confused (I suppose this is a good news/bad news kind of thing: Bad she got covid, Good everyone else on the team's chances of getting it is pretty low)

I presume that with the rest of the team vaccinated, this game isn't in danger of getting postponed so long as everyone else on both teams test negative tomorrow.

When fucking around meets finding out... My favorite part is how she says she thinks that her being the only one on the team who got it was part of a conspiracy.

She should be entitled to a refund from Middle Tennessee State.

Tru 👏🏼 ly 👏🏼 Oh lord, not her thinking it's all one big coincidence. Rolling Eyes Seriously people, covid ain't that deep of a concept when we're now Month #14 into the national pandemic. It's certainly still not spreading through 5G networks...

And I hate to bring this up, but, uhh, lest we forget: She did get kicked out of MTSU for "smoking marijuana and failing a subsequent drug test."

Quote:
"It tells me that I have a hard head, but it really woke me up and showed me what I need to work on as far as being an adult and becoming an adult," Parker said regarding what she learned. "I'm a senior now and I'm about to be in the real world.

"It just taught me about decision-making and choices that we make every day are so important, so life-changing. The smallest things can change your life forever and can ruin things."


OOF.

Well anyway, please get well soon, Cheyenne.

So are Christy Winters Scott and Frank Hanrahan calling the game or just the Twitter "studio hosts"? No natural sound from the floor?

Still nothing for you? I was able to get it. I don't like that all the audio is the commentators though. Let's hear the arena!

Don't love this format and I usually enjoy CWS's commentary.

I agree. CWS is a good one, but this format/audio makes it seem like the game is an afterthought to the talk. Sports nets for the past year have been able to effectively have announcers from remote locations.

It feels like all the energy of a podcast about random general bball topics with a game playing in the background and sometimes mentioned. Sigh.

Head scratcher that whoever is doing the Twitter broadcast thinks that two announcers watching from home should be shown during the game picture-in-picture.

Same thought same time.

Everyone has made remote broadcasts work in every sport.

Seems the planned format not the remote - probably someone's idea to broaden the appeal of the game by talking about a nothing but the game.

Now yelly create fake energy dude in wcbb makes me nuts but there has to be a happy medium... I love this guy's voice but he is so low energy it is like a relax me to sleep thing.

I'm sure Sylvia Crawley has some good things to say, but, there is a game going on. They can talk to her at halftime.

With the Emory commercial coming on, this looks like it is being produced for TV and Twitter is talking over it. I thought I saw ATL announcers at the beginning. What's going on with this?

A playoff team vs. a lottery team.

I blame Michael Cooper. Instead of drafting Jonquel Jones he traded the pick to Connecticut for Elizabeth Williams. Swap those two and this game is entirely different.

How did I not realize Hayes wasn't back yet? When is she supposed to arrive?
