Unless Candace Parker’s arm falls off between now and the next few minutes, she’ll be the No. 1 pick by the Los Angeles Sparks.

As I touched upon last month, Becky Hammon is going to play for Russia in the 2008 Olympics.
From what Becky told the Associated Press, she’d have played for USA if given the chance to compete, but you can’t really fault her for wanting to play for Team Russia […]

In surprising fashion, the Tennessee Lady Vols won their eighth national title and second in a row Tuesday evening.
Congrats to them, and since you were likely watching while I was working on highway closures and election results, you know how it happened more than I do.
