From my Inbox:

Hey Helen, Here's what is going on in the WNBA:
1. Vote Now For the Photo of the Year
2. WNBA Stars Ring in the Holiday Season
3. Ruth Riley on Keeping Hope Alive
4. European Vacation: WNBA Players Overseas
5. Player Movement Central
6. Who Said It?

So, not to belabour the point... but, if .com doesn't send out email alerts to fans because the "expect" fans to visit the .com, why did I just get an email from wnba@fans.wnba.com?

Well, because, as the bottom of the email says: This message was sent to you because you subscribed to the official WNBA News email.

So, if I took the time to subscribe, and obviously they CAN send out emails, why don't they do it more often so, you know, fans would know about new stuff up on the .com?

sigh. *bangs head against keyboard*
