Q. What WNBA players most remind you of yourself?
"In an attempt to sound as humble as possible… I think Betty Lennox reminds me a lot of myself. She has had a tough run in the WNBA and it was so great to see her rewarded with a WNBA championship. Her play is an example of her heart. No one really understood her heart for the game. She always wanted to compete at this level and succeed. It was well worth the wait to see her succeed on that stage. Also Diana Taurasi. She's just incredible. Everyone looks at her and misjudges her thinking she's not athletic, or they think she is a "tweener," in between point guard and shooting guard. But she can really play four positions on the court. She has the brain for this game, the heart for the game and the nose for the game. I admire her play quite a bit." |

When I first saw him. He scared the crap out of me. Even though the dog is protective of me when I go to see my boyfriend, I still think to myself of the damage that dog can do if pushed the wrong way.

| What would be equally interesting is to hear what players remind others of Cooper. Taurasi isn't a bad comparison - both are arrogant.

I never really thought of those players when it came to Coop. I'm not sure that there is a player in the league that reminds me of Coop. Cappie has some similarities that I see.

Betty Lennox? Is she trying to insult herself?
I think these comparison questions are silly. Coop is one of a kind. |

and, y'know, i was thinking, when mt was waiting for a response, she can't possibly put a fine specimen like that on display and then expect us not to drool! that would be so wrong! such a tease - you can't have it both ways . . . but i applaud your taste. that he has a dog is doubly drool-worthy.

Thank you 'bibb. I am happy with my relationship right now. He is good man, and what makes him triple drool-worthy is that he loves to cook for me (and he can cook).
