What BBN said about it

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentShould you be worried about where the WNBA Finals get played?
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentAngel Reese and the Atlanta Dream may host their home games in a three-thousand-five-hundred-seat arena.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThree and a half thousand. For a Finals. You could fit a high school gym inside this, just with better lighting, and I need you to understand that.
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentThe cause is scheduling conflicts at State Farm Arena, which is the big building. Nothing in the story says the series is in danger.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorConflicts, plural. Somebody double-booked the championship.
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentMultiple conflicts, yes. It's a calendar problem, Dale. Not a plot.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorEvery great disaster starts as a calendar problem. Also, the ad campaigns should fear knitwear, as I said earlier about sweaters winning attention. Same energy.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorSmall rooms, big stakes.
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentVerdict: eat a sandwich. The venue is not final, and the games still get played.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorFine. Give the end of the world a deadline grade, then.
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentIncomplete. You keep missing your own deadline.
