It really is amazing how little pleases this board anymore.
It used to be pleasant. Now its just mean spirited.

I blame Trump. He's got everybody thinking there's nothing good in the world.

Personally I love Chiney, LaChina, and Lobo...and miss Kara too. What's she up to? Will she be doing NCAA this year?
But I also like rah, rah Roz, and really get a great kick out of Dick Fain, so perhaps I'm hopeless.

I felt like 3-4 years ago this place was a lot meaner with a lot of personal insults etc.

Chiney is nice looking, is very articulate and intelligent, and has a pleasant voice quality.
Is it her opinions and analysis that are annoying? Those can evolve and change. I used to think Kara Lawson was an ESPN click-bait idiot with her over-the-top prediction shticks in her first few years. She dropped all that stuff and changed.
We do know that Chiney wouldn't have been MVP if she had been healthy, don't we? I mean, if she took substantial minutes away from Jonquel Jones and Alyssa Thomas, that wouldn't have been particularly valuable, would it? |

I know that Kara took time away from the league to be with her ailing father (RIP); do we think that she's officially done, now?

Chiney has been doing bits for NBA coverage. I wonder if she's gonna be the next Ros.

just because someone is a good player it does not necessarily follow that they will be a either a good coach or announcer/commentator.

That's a shame. That means that Becky Brunson is the only player still in the league that's left from our championship team. And I can't even root for her, because I hate the Lynx so much.
