Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Friday, June 23, 2006

SI's Deitsch chats with Swoopes. Her Majesty says that after coming out, she now gets standing ovations at away games.

Swoopes also offers praise for men's-side giants: "One of the things that has been most special to me was Shaquille O'Neal and Kevin Garnett came up to me on different occasions. They hugged me and said, 'I love you, I'm proud of you and I have your back. You did what you needed to know for yourself and don't worry about what anybody else has to say.'"
