I didn't want to start a new thread about this, so here it is. I like watching the Fever in the summer, but my passion is Iowa women's basketball. I look forward to this forum leaving the WNBA behind and getting back to college ball.

I am NOT suggesting a separate forum for the WNBA threads. et's see how things develop for awhile.

So the guys been awarded 15 international humanitarian awards (some by some pretty prestigious entities). Was this all just so he could gather attention for himself?
That's the question they can't answer or won't answer.

Of course he wasn't seeking attention for himself but for the causes he cared about and therefore received so many awards.

Until the naysayers can somehow explain his sudden turnabout in seeking merely personal notoriety it's all just fart noises.

Every team has figured out the same game plan against the Fever: dribble past the perimeter defender, throw the entire defense into disarray, and find someone for a wide-open shot or layup. If Indiana can figure out a way to stop that from happening every single possession they have a chance to go far in the playoffs. As it is, they usually look like panicking doofuses on defense. It's vexing.

At times it looks like a soup sandwich. Late on closeouts, no closeout, and no baseline help defense. Throw in some weak perimeter defense, giving the shooter too much space, and yeah, it looks disorganized for certain.

Man growing up this kind of stuff wasn't an issue and never talked about. I miss them times. I think there is a lot of mental issues at work here. There is so much craziness today
"Father knows best, Leave it to beaver, Ozzie and Harriet, and all of the variety shows with the exception of Lawrence Welk lol. He robbed me of precious years thanks to mom and dad.

I present the1976 Olympic gold metal winning swim relay team from East Germany. I think our society has become a bit too nuanced. It's really not that hard.

analogies aren't your forte
Just because you’re too dumb to understand them, it’s not my problem. But let me help you: buying a ticket for the sole purpose of doing ill to the people you’re buying access to doesn’t make one a “fan”. Pretty spot on and a simple concept, but I can try and draw in crayon for you next time?

Continuing to argue over trans in women’s sports. Round and round we go doing the bidding of some aholes who want us to do precisely that, instead of focusing on important things that affect the majority. We’re literally arguing about something that affects next to nobody. It’s like arguing over people being attacked by grasshoppers. It’s that ******* minuscule.
