I follow women's basketball, of course. Women get overlooked. They get overshadowed because of men's basketball. They play the game, they play for the love just like we do. And to have a team still in Seattle is definitely a blessing. So of course we s...more

posted June 9, 2010 at 5:33pm

I didn’t know that Amare Stoudemire was such a greedy bastard. He is going to opt out of his $17 million final year with the Phoenix Suns, because he wants to go where he can get the most money. I can understand the need for money, but I guess the $17 ...more

In Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals last night, the Lakers came off a week long rest and showed about as much rust as a new Lambourghini. Though Lamar Odom didn’t actually eat Steve Nash’s legs, he grabbed nineteen rebounds in the 128-107 victo...more
