Prime's WNBA games are an utter embarrassment

[Basingstoke]

For the 2nd time in a week Prime was a totally inept mess in televising a WNBA game, as they again lost the game action for minutes at a time (tonight's Liberty vs Mystics game twice lost the action, not showing the the first 4 minutes and 40 seconds of play in the second quarter). Instead, we were "treated" to commercial after commercial. No acknowledgement of technical problems or any sort of apology.
I sincerely hope that the league will demand that they get their act together immediately!
PS Currently, we're in the midst of another 5 minutes + of lost game action and have just regained coverage with only 1:26 left in the second period...

Yikes. Saw someone posting on social media that it was bad, but didn't know it was THAT bad. Had access to the local Fox5 channel and missed that mess.

Right there with you 100%. Prime, in this day and age of technology and the so-called standards attached to Amazon, you would think that in year two of this partnership with the WNBA there would be some improvement from last year. Nope. Still struggling with technical issues. To the casual fan, it looks horrible. To us faithful follows of women's basketball, it is a hot mess and not a good look, especially in Year 2!

Odd. Amazon has covered much larger events (eg Thursday night football) so don’t know why they’d have problems with the W.

Their foray into NFL games hasn't exactly been great either. Glad Canada still has TSN as the option to watch as an alternative.

Lague pass is pretty bad at times, takes repeated efforts at times to get it to work and some times it just won't. What a joke, and they say they want to get more people interested in women's basketball but make access very difficult, I will not continue to pay for some thing that works when it feels like it. There is no reason why the games cannot be on real tv
