los angeles the las vegas aces tip off game 1 of the wnba finals against the connecticut sun sunday at 12 pm pt in southern nevada some 85 minutes later and 280 miles away the las vegas raiders kick off the season at the los angeles chargers mark davis who owns both las vegas franchises is in southern california as he chose to attend his football teams season opener but not without first putting together a list of pros and cons he told espn saturday night as ive said before i feel like a single parent with two children and each one of them have something different to do on the same day at the same time and you have to make a decision davis said with a laugh after thinking it through with josh mcdaniels coaching his first game here with the raiders and the aces playing at home it just made it easier for me to make that decision to come to the raider game because the aces have the home crowd in las vegas and theyre rabid fans and i dont know that ill be missed as much so it just made sense to do that but if we get into a fourth game next sunday and have to play in connecticut ill be at the aces game because it will be a deciding game the raiders play host to the arizona cardinals on what would be game 4 of the wnba finals davis acknowledged he could not remember the last raiders game he missed what ive also said is the aces are not a hobby its the real deal to me davis added im fully in on that fully bought in theyre professional athletes and hopefully were going to bring a championship to las vegas youve seen that happen once with jerry tarkanian and the unlv runnin rebels mens basketball team in 1990 so maybe this will be another one davis who was besieged by selfieseeking fans in the lobby of the team hotel and granted each photo wish also spoke on how he did not like game 1 of the wnba finals going up against the nfls kickoff weekend its tough for me to understand the why and how he said i dont know who made that decision whether its the networks that made the decision or the league or both together but they need to rethink it obviously to bring the first game of the wnba finalsto go up against the opening game of the national football league just makes no sense hopefully people will hear this and maybe theyll put two tvs on in their bars really i would hope people will have one of the tvs showing the wnba game while theyre showing football it just doesnt make sense to me because were trying to get eyeballs on this wnba league and thats how you get media contracts and thats probably one of the biggest things that were after right
