According to WNBA.com - http://www.wnba.com/schedules/

Game 1 S.A. at Sac - Thurs, Sept 18 @6pm PDT :mad:
Game 2 Sac at S.A. - Sat, Sept 20 @ 6pm PDT
*Game 3 Sac at S.A. - Mon, Sept 22 @ TBA

So much for the 1 vs 4 Friday/Sunday theory. The Monarchs have one less day to prepare for Game 1. Oh well, if you are dealt lemons.......you know the rest.:eek:

What as crock of crap. If in scheduling arenas, they really need to schedule the 1/4 on Thurs, then cancel the damn Houston game. They are punishing the Monarchs for a hurricane. Bull!!! :mad:

And a 6 o'clock game on a weekday? Some of us have barely gotten off work and will have trouble getting to the game by 6.

Doesn't appear to be a scheduling issue with either ARCO or AT&T...and I assume that everybody else should have had these dates available as well since the playoff potential dates are set well before the season starts. So, I'm left to conclude this was just a %^%$$% scheduling decision by the league.

I am stunned. I could see if being well, it's life's lemons if the Monarchs were stuck in Texas because of an airline thing or some other crazy travel adventure which surely happens to W teams. But this is different, and well, just flat out stupid.

@#$@$@$$# them all, I say the Ms go out and win the whole damn thing....

To look at it from a positive perspective, at least the Ms will not board a plane right after the game to fly to San Antonio to play a game less than 36 hours after the game 1 concluded. And here I thought that was the stupidest scheduling idea ever....:rolleyes:

6:00 p.m. starting time? Well, I guess I suppose it could be worse; like a starting tip-off time of 4:00 or 5:00 p.m.!

Anyway, I guess I'll have to ask my employer for the afternoon off on that day.

6 p.m.????

Again, the East Coast bias is showing. It's just disheartening to see the empty seats at tipoff because of the early start time.

That being said, it's time for the M's to represent the Best Coast.

The Houston game should have been canceled. Its meaningless. I can't take time off Thursday, so 6 PM sucks.:mad: Nevertheless....Go Monarchs!
