This incident aside, women’s basketball is like men’s basketball in the 1950s in one other respect, in that it is still a team sport, as opposed to hangers-on following an overpriced prima donna. That alone makes for a more interesting game, if a TEAM play is what you’re looking for.

Other than that, I can only say… meow!

The most exciting clip to come from a WNBA game since…well, ever.

They fight like girls though. Oh, wait.

I know we’d like to talk about the basketball; but frankly, this is what makes it a lead story tonight…

The WBNA is a fan friendly league. The Maloofs here in Sacramento do a good job with the Monarchs (World Champs a few years ago). And the way that Kings ticket prices have gone up in the past several years, no more season tickets for me, just a few games a year – I could get WNBA season tickets for a what few Kings games would set me back.

But being the father of two girls (7 & 3) the WNBA is my fallback retirement position – the first two being the LPGA and Womens’ Tennis – that way I can spend recklessly now, and let the kids fund my golden years! Oh wait, I am not the government…

Two opposing players got their legs tangled up and one fell over the other. There was a ten-second scuffle, after which one hotheaded woman in a white jersey is held back by two of her teammates. Looks like a non-story.

Nothing says “brawl” quite like the arms-glued-to-your-sides walk-into-somebody-until-they-fall-over move.

Honestly, can you call it a brawl if there isn’t a single punch thrown? Maybe you can call this an “aggressive meeting” or an “unpolite rendezvous,” perhaps.

Presumably this is what brawls looked like in men’s basketball in the 1950s.

What the heck does that mean? When wimpy white guys were in the majority?

I was dragged to a womens college basketball game, free tickets, knew the athletic director, a few years back. Was given adequate warning about the (lack of) skill level. When asked at the end of the game what I thought and I said I would not have paid to watch that if they had been playing naked.

I suppose soccer will be blamed for this too given the hooliganism.
