It's time for overtime playoff hockey which calls for an iconic Jon Bois tweet
The WNBA was already on Prime. The difference now in the new media deals is their entire slate is exclusive.
Looks like the answer is YES to question No. 1 (h/t @sportsontvguy.bsky.social) as it appears USA Network and Peacock/NBCSN games will be non-exclusive and local broadcasts have the option to co-exist with them (e.g. Aces, Wings & Fire local tv have picked up the games, the Sun chosen not to).
If you're in the Fever's home market, League Pass WILL blackout games because they're available locally on tv or the Fever's in-market streaming service. National exclusives, of course, will be national only. Once the Fever's local schedule is out, you can find out which is which.
I wouldn't say "punishment" but fans do have to go the extra mile if they want to watch all these games. Which they don't, mind you. Free will and all that. But it's necessary for the league to grow, players being paid, ect.
Alright. Then they don't make $300M annually and the players don't get paid. We'll tell them that Bishop said so.
Consider yourself booked & busy 📆
Here's the official 2026 WNBA Watch Guide!

The one time you probably should leave out the source lol
The Fever said in their release that their local tv schedule will be announced at a later date. Not all 44 games will be national exclusives.
Probably has more to do with it being an NFL Sunday more than anything else.
I believe the Lynx were the only WNBA team that was still fully connected to the FDSN chain. The Fever had a small package, but most shifted to TEGNA in the last couple years.
Throughout it all, Trump received little-to-no pushback, effectively being handed a live microphone to riff at length as the CNBC hosts stood idly by. They allowed him to deliver most of his claims uninterrupted, at times bizarrely opting not to interject as the president jumped from one topic to the next with little coherence. If such an interview took place on a network like CNN, its hosts would unquestionably be roasted for letting the president steamroll them. In any case, perhaps the most interesting moment came some 10 minutes into the interview, when Trump revealed how he was coaxed into agreeing to the appearance in the first place. Trump said that Kernen had tried to get him on the CNBC program the prior week, assuring him that co-host Andrew Ross Sorkin—who is far more skeptical of Trump’s often fictitious claims—would not be on the show. “You can even put Andrew on the phone,” Trump told Kernen, who up until then had been the sole anchor to conduct the interview. “You know, you told me Andrew would not be there.” Trump continued: “Joe made a comment to me. When he tried to get me on, he said, ‘I promise I’ll have Andrew Ross Sorkin—he will not be there.’”
CNBC's reputation is built on it's credibility. That took a huge hit when host Joe Kernen agreed to ice out co-host Andrew Ross Sorkin -the show's only journalist- to get a live interview with Trump. Wow. Incredible read from @oliverdarcy.bsky.social

Tweet from Pete Hegseth: "The War Department is once again restoring freedom to our Joint Force. We are discarding the mandatory flu vaccine requirement, effective immediately."
In World War I more U.S. soldiers died of influenza than from combat. In America's first 145 years of war more soldiers and sailors died from infectious diseases than from enemy action. In every single war in human history more combatants have died of illness and disease than bullets and the blade.

NEW: I found two "news" websites active on X and other platforms—Al-Fassel and Pishtaz News—that are in fact U.S. government-operated anti-Iranian military propaganda mills. Both appear tied to U.S. Central Command.

A clip from The New York Times reads: "But only the entities that officially paid the tariffs are eligible to recover that money. That means that the fuller universe of people affected by Mr. Trump’s policies — including millions of Americans who paid higher prices for the products they bought — are not able to apply for direct relief. The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do. Some have started to band together in class-action lawsuits in the hopes of receiving a payout."
The average American family paid $1,700 in tariffs last year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Joint Economic Committee. Few will ever see any of that money back. The refunds will go to companies, if doled out at all. What a joke.
The Tigers played an entire four game series in Boston against the Red Sox and the home team didn't wear their normal uniforms in any of those four games. Losing recipes.
