Three-point ace Erin Thorn led the Liberty (yes, really) in an opening-day victory over the Sky.

You can walk to MSG from the New York Times offices, but the Times ran the AP story anyway, and used less of it than the Bergen Record.

The Daily News' Kristie Ackert, on the other hand, wrote a real story. Thorn-- who set a new career record, and a team record for three-pointers made-- says the Lib's defense cued the late comeback.

Thorn's hot shooting even surprised the computers that keep track of the online boxscore, which (right now) omits stats for the second half.
