Like any die hard WNBA fan, Im mostly joking. And like any die hard WNBA fan, I created a profile or something at WNBA.com so I could leave semi-awkward comments on players blog posts. Here’s a member profile directory page. The best part? Look at the dude who calls himself civic97’s reason “why I love this game.”

WNBA= Women with confidence who aren’t afraid to sweat

I hope this guy is kidding, but I secretly hope more that he isn’t. Because that’s just F’n hilarious.

Im not gonna bash kristie.l.thomkins who actually took the time to create a picture for her WNBA fanvoice profile page. I get the feeling kristie is a feminist who is like 9 yrs old (we have one of those as a writer on the blog… fingerwag55).

See if you can guess which profile is mine. Here’s my profile page, scroll to the bottom to see recent posts. I suggest all of you make a profile and comment on the various blog posts. It’s a good time. I LOVE THIS GAME!! (It’s Ours)


This Is a Big Deal Yes?

Does the NBA usually admit when it is wrong? I was pretty shocked when they did the replay of that heat hawks game earlier this year. And now the NBA comes out with this.

“After reviewing the video of last night’s Pistons-Magic game, we determined that the play that concluded with Chauncey Billups’ 3-point field goal at the end of the third quarter took approximately 5.7 seconds,” the statement read. “Because there were only 5.1 seconds remaining in the quarter when the play began, the shot would not have counted had the clock continued to run.”

Even though the magic lost by more than three, the game was certainly close enough for magic fans to be angry(at least the shot clock worked). And now the Magic are up like 20 points in the first quarter in game three. I thought the NBA didn’t want a Spurs-Pistons finals. But after the Billups play, and some questionable calls (Duncan tripping on his own feet, Bowen knocking the ball out of bounds) in the spurs suns series, Im not so sure.
