What else is new Laughing

In 40-50 years when she is in a home for the elderly she will have an extra room reserved for her 4 medals and her other prizes

I love to harrass LLL. She's such a good target. She makes herself a really good target, from her singing on the gold medal stand decked out in all her bling, to her book which exposed a disturbing tendency towards martyrdom and a victim mentality.

But part of being a good target is that she's not a pathetic one. I really appreciate the things she's done for women's basketball. I miss her presence on court in the WNBA. She really took her contribution seriously, and she worked hard for it. Nothing wrong with that. Go, Lisa! Cool

Leslie has risen almost to the point of self-parody. She practically writes the ego jokes all by herself (because who else would she trust to do it? Wink

)

Hammon... well. I'd have to banhammer myself if I said what I really felt about her.

Frankly, I am tired of these articles/pieces on "The Leslian Lifestyle" being shoved down our throats. I have nothing against Leslie or the Leslians. What they do behind closed doors is their business. But I object to having "The Leslian Lifestyle" thrown in my face. Per my religious beliefs, i do not have to accept it or tolerate it.

So what the heck am I missing?

Did anyone actually READ the article?

It was a nice piece about playing in the 96 Olympics and being a part of that team.

Where's the self-promotion? The world according to Lisa lesbian bashing?

What am I missing?

This all seems really silly to me, including the subject line of the thread.

Sorry, I guess I just didn't see anything amusing about the things being said in this thread.

Sense of humor on this must have run dry.

I enjoy Lisa Leslie since she stopped playing. Kind of along the lines of Charles Barkley... but with a ways to go before reaching his level of "WTF did he just say!?"

I think she should continue to be outspoken whenever the mood takes her because WBB needs some of that.

Leslie was an outstanding player and the Sparks had some great teams. Fans of other teams chose her to beat up on for no particular reason other than the fact that she was so good and outplayed there post players. As for Hammon she was the only one of the three (Hammon ,Nolan, and Miller) that the Russian coach wanted for a point guard. She was not on the final list of 23 US candidates and figured she had no chance with the US team. She was offered a belated tryout and I guess figured that was a waste of time. I remember Nancy Lieberman referred to that 23 player list as that "Stinking List" because Hammon was not on it. I think Nolan and Miller both said they would accept a Russian invitation at that time. Hammon consistently outplayed Bird when SASS played the Storm but since the Storm coach, Ann Donovan, was also the the US team coach it was no surprise that she wanted Bird as her point guard. I think if there had been a different coach Hammon would have made the US team.
