Yup, it's the WNBA. It has all the very best former women college players. It is still in it's infancy but I think it will do well at least I hope it does. The men like to go watch the attractive and well built women run around in their uniforms. Hey! whatever it takes to make it work.

I wish I could be a fly on the wall of Coach Summitt's house, I'd like to know what she has to say about the scuffle, if anyything.

Which is why we don't watch. We'll flip over to beach volleyball instead.

I can't say. Interpret it as "Are you serious?".

Would this be one of the "hard-bodied women" you were referring to??

If you think the league had anything to do with this then you have absolutely 0.00 cred.

easy now. These team have a very good chance of being in the finals according to the news I saw last night.

I'm not above a little conspiracy theory.

It was way too random, not to mention why would the league put one of their marquee players at risk like that? You did see the player wheeled off didn't you? I just don't buy it.

I bet any amount of money the WNBA in public is frowning but behing closed doors they're giggling like school girls.
