Is it just me, or is anyone else totally and thoroughly disgusted that she would come back, and in her first game off suspension get T'd up for opening her mouth?
Obviously counseling was not a part of her time off was it? The girl should be bounced from the league before something happens.

The thing I noticed was that she was she was using her free hand/arm (usually the right) to swat at the defender...not just give them a nudge to keep them off, but a real swing. In all honesty, she might have always played her defenders that way and I didn't ever notice it before, so my bad if that is her norm.
I was wondering why Tweety had an "s" on her headband??? Now I know it was a "5"...makes so much more sense to me now.

ShockFront Squarepants! lol!
you guys know i've been a big believer in sfo, because of the energy and excitement he brought to the league when he first arrived. but now that his team has headed south, true colors appear to have emerged, and i'm pretty disappointed. i seriously doubt we'll be seeing him on this board any time soon - he knows we'd grill him about ep, among other things. i actually wondered if it was him coming on as shockpr, but maybe not - he doesn't need to log in to read the board. anyway, i'd sure as hell like to be proved wrong, that he's not a fairweather participant, that he's bigger than that.
as for ep, i'm not gonna defend her, per se, but we should keep in mind that we're not as all-knowing as we'd like to believe we are. we may not be privy to what has happened behind the scenes. donna o may have talked with her one on one; may have insisted on counseling as a requirement to stay in the league; may have counseled her herself; may have read sfo the riot act; all or none of the above. we just don't know. for all we know, wearing the "5" could've been a statement of support for ep to "get better." that's a stretch, but you get my drift. so let's not assume that apologies/conversations/counseling/other sanctions have not occurred just because we didn't get the memo.

| I couldn't believe she got a technical last night. It is only a matter of time before she loses it again.

You're absolutely right bibb....but it still doesn't change the fact that in her first game back she couldn't control herself enough to go ONE GAME without a technical. Doesn't say much for whatever the league said/did to her.
