So I was a die-hard Detroit Shock fan and used to post here regularly, but haven't been here in a decade or so. I sort of randomly decided to see if this board is still active, and ended up somehow remembering log-in info. What a blast from the past, I'm in tears reading the old posts. I wonder if anyone is left from that Rebkell era. I have no idea.

Anyway, my sister and I lived and breathed for the Shock. Our family was always season ticket holders. We recorded all the games, by vcr and eventually cable but now all is lost. I was a kid back then, my stepmom threw out all the tapes. I have no more footage of a team that helped me through my childhood. I was with them when they were first a team (when they sucked), and I was there for every championship. The players knew us so well that we ran out on the court for their 2nd championship and the players hugged us and celebrated with us!

Does anyone know any person or website that has archived all the games? I miss my team, and we recorded so many games that have so much meaning to me. I know might be hopeless, but is there any way to see old WNBA games?

Hillary & Bill at the game ... Jae Kingi with the assist to Rachael Sporn ... Suuuuuuuuue Wicks ... good times Smile

I've still got my recordings of the Detroit-Phoenix finals series. I really need to put that up on YouTube sometime.
One thing I was actually planning to do once the boards are upgraded is start a thread specifically for links to old games like that one above.

Hey, you! How's the fam? Are you still writing?

Unfortunately, I have no tapes to offer. Fortunately, the Shock's former PR guy hangs out on this board. Maybe he's got something.

I have dozens of VHS tapes from ~2001-2009 as well. Even the college tournament games! Razz

Let me know if you want them.. Exclamation

I stopped recording them after a fan started recording all the LiveAccess feeds and putting them on YouTube. However, a couple years ago, the W shut down his channel for copyright violations.. Shocked

Therefore, if anyone here plans on posting them, I'd suggest doing it on a new/separate account that you don't use.. Idea

I used to record all the Libs games. Similarly as well the team got me through life's ups and downs. I don't have them anymore. I had the Spoon shot game on DVR but lost it when my DVR broke.

The move to WCC has me very uneasy about the future of my team.
