Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Sunday, September 16, 2007

Some Trenton, NJ bar is going to be very surprised this afternoon. A bunch of fans are negotiating attending the USA/Australian friendly over at the Sovereign Arena (1pm) and then finding a place to catch Game 5 of the Finals (4:30p, EST). Can you say, "No overtime, please?"

Ah, it's good to be a women's basketball fan. As good a time as any to reflect on an Anne Donovan quote about the WNBA:
Pity the person that's still looking at this league ten years ago when it started out. They just gave up on it back then? Where would we be in women's basketball if we had all done that back then? The game has grown, the talent has grown, the coaching has grown. And it's a game that needs to be promoted within our own ranks."
