Just minutes before pop singer Alanis Morrisette sang the National Anthem for Game 2 of the WNBA Finals, players of the Valkyries and Dream were seen going to the locker room.

Monday's decision to leave before the National Anthem was played was the second time during the Finals that the two teams opted out. I hope this leave folds

Alanis is Alt Rock. Taylor swift is pop.

If it wasn't for this board, not sure anyone would have a clue that it happened.

This is orchestrated. How else are they going to get angry new viewers to tune in?

Ever notice how anytime someone is talking about the WNBA, they are never talking about actual game play?

More than likely standard procedure but yall wouldn’t know nor do you actually care until now.

Kinda like when Jeff Landry raised a fuss about LSU WBB going in the locker room for the anthem as if they hadn’t done that all season.

She's also Canadian.

Why would they pick a Canadian to sing the National Anthem?

A tactic to draw more attention to their finals series. Stop taking the bait.
