I asked Meg Aronowitz about that.
Here's an answer: "We loved our time with Sue and Diana, and they loved being a part of it, but sometimes you just need to shake things up a little bit, and change what we're doing, and we just mutually agreed that's probably the best thing for us."
BREAKING- According to senior vice president of production at ESPN Meg Aronowitz, the Bird and Taurasi Show will not return for this year's Women's Final Four.
That concept is being reimagined. #WNBA
Good morning!
I'll be attending today's 2026 NCAA Women's Final Four Tip-Off Press Conference!
Stay tuned for the coverage!
Latest in the WNBA CBA front β the league delivered its most recent proposal to the players Friday night, a source tells @theathletic.com.
Pace of negotiations is quickening; the leagueβs response comes three days after the unionβs most recent offer.
Today, I officially turn 23! π
This past year has taught me so many valuable lessons and gave me opportunities I got to pursue! π₯Ή
In a statement provided to ESPN, a WNBA spox calls the WNBPA's proposal "unrealistic & would cause hundreds of millions of dollars of losses for our teams. We... are running out of time. We believe the WNBAβs proposal would result in a huge win for current players & generations to come.β
News: The WNBPA submitted a counterproposal to the WNBA this afternoon.
Sources said they made concessions on revenue share % and on housing. Details TK
I'm heading into my last weekend as a 22-year-old, as I officially turn 23 on Wednesday.
I have learned so many valuable lessons and gained many valuable opportunities throughout the past year, including graduating from Arizona State and covering the #WNBA Finals! π₯Ή
Over the last three years of my young sports journalism career, I got the opportunity to cover Diana Taurasi's historical game, 2024 WNBA all-star game, 2025 WNBA Finals, and so many more!
In the meantime, let's connect! π€©π©βπ»
I'm so excited to announce that I get the opportunity to cover this year's NCAA Women's Final Four in my home state, Phoenix!
A dream come true! π₯Ή
See you all in April! π€©ποΈ

The WNBA & WNBPA met for roughly 3 hrs at the league offices in New York City on Monday. The WNBA showed up without a proposal.
βThat kind of set the tone for the conversation because we were hoping to hear otherwise," Nneka Ogwumike told me.

Once again, with the nation in turmoil, key Minnesota women's basketball figures like Cheryl Reeve and Rebekkah Brunson are speaking out. Our @jacobmox.bsky.social reports: #WNBA www.thenexthoops.com/wnba/minneso...
Rebekkah Brunson speaks on Minneapolis before the Wolves game (h/t @gettinggophery.bsky.social)
The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.
Mist forward and Unrivaled Co-founder Breanna Stewart held up a sign with two words during intros today: βAbolish Ice.β
