At Off-Court, David adds to Connecticut's anti-Lieberman vibe. Not that one, silly; this one.

And just to be clear: the problem isn't that Nancy Lieberman is, well, old: the problem is that putting a prominent 50-year-old former star and current broadcaster in a Shock uni two nights after The Brawl makes the league, and the Shock, look either desperate for good publicity, or just silly. Had it been a 50-year-old former WBL star whose name casual fans would never recognize, and who had never appeared on TV, I at least would have had no problem. (But then the Shock wouldn't have had all those fluffy stories.)

By the time the Olympics start, fortunately, we're not going to be talking about these events at all: by the time league play resumes, we might not even be talking about The Brawl. We'll be talking about the future, and about the Olympics. And that's the way the league wants it... if (and it's a pretty big if, this year) Team USA can bring home the gold.
