gonna need the Dream to win Game 6, both because [Zaza Pachulia voice] GAME 7 BABYYYY and the Finals cannot end on a Thursday afternoon

Y’all I know it’s a vibe switch from Balhalla craziness to that Caitlin Clark Lilly ad, but I really love that commercial. The message is so good.

“I dont know shout out to my teammates! I can’t hear anything!” - Kiah Stokes as she tries to talk over a loony Balhalla crowd

I get Reese’s frustration - she’s taking contact - but it’s a physical game with a lot of no-calls and she can’t drop her head and try to plow through defenders in response.

Big missed call there. And now more players on the ground. Someone needs to make a lowlight reel to Let The Bodies Hit The Floor.

Ugly, low-scoring first half, which is what the Valks want. Just a three-point lead though, and the Dream have come out and dominated in the 3rd quarter this series.

Dream defense doing a really good job keeping the Valks from getting good looks. Golden State ending up settling for a ton of late-in-the-shot-clock heaves.

I love that Zendeya is rocking the giveaway shirt at Balhalla. Legit sports girlie.

I can't stop watching this.

Good pod on the Valks-Dream finals: - the series - the cities and arenas vibes - how the league success is attracting troublemakers but shutting them down with joy & inclusion. Smart takes on the Vs' short rotation too, which I think is helping, even if it means fewer minutes for K. Chen.

The “Under 4 Player Development” guy at the party I went to Saturday was scarily accurate in his depiction of youth sports…

Hey Gemini what is my kid's name and what does she look like, I'm at her school play and I can't figure out which one it is

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

pretty fascinating piece www.chicagotribune.com/2026/10/25/r...

this is so fucking bleak

Austin has an in-N-Out now if she wants her only shot at a double double ever

Just a country singer and her disco truck nuts… 🪩🥜

Skye Blakely couldn't imagine a way back in the aftermath of injuries at not one but two Olympic trials. Now she’s the world champion.

Back to square one. We’ve got a series baby!

Thank you, Becky Hammon and the Aces, for talking Tip Hayes out of retirement. She (and we!) deserved this. 🙏

Same with Veronica Burton

HAHAHA I do this *all* the time. Showing my age. 🫠😮

Valerie Burton has been a human piñata all series. Goes hard, pays the price.

Is it really *that* difficult to say AL-Leesha? Al. Like Al Bundy. Al Green. Al Pacino. Al Qaeda. I'mma stop.

I was listening to my fave political podcast this morning while driving and one of the co-hosts said he’d had a midterm debate on a side screen while his family watched “the Valkyries’ WNBA finals game.” I just love how much the WNBA is coming up in conversation outside of sports spaces these days.

I love how hard these Dream intros go. Forget just height, college, and name, every home team should be doing this combo bio/slam poetry thing.

Portland clinching this many teams at once is big “I’m carrying the group project” energy

I'll admit it, "Milwaukee wins Game 1 again" is a good call.
