Good for them. Even though he has a right to his opinion, I have a right to mine. And I do agree with him partly. When I pay my money, I want to see the best.
But unlike his opinion, when I pay my money to see the WNBA, I AM seeing the best.

| I bet if more knotheads like this guy were tossed into a group of WNBA players and forced to eat his words, there'd be a lot less ignorant commentary like what I just read over at FOX.

You know, in his clip where he was asked what he would tell his daughter regarding athetics and his response was "I'd tell her to take up medicine", got me thinking. About 60 or so years ago, no man would be encouraging his daughter to be a doctor. Nurse, yes, doctor no. You know, there are some wonderful, wonderful men in the world, but my God, their decency is hugely overshadowed by the vast neanderthal element present in their group.
Rant off
I wish they would have shown them playing ball against his sorry ass.

| I actually worked with Kriski a few times many years back. He was a really cool guy and one of the remotes we did was for Roller Derby. He skated with the women who proceeded to kick his ass and he was nothing but complimentary and gracious. I think he's just been on morning TV for too long. He's unbelievably cranky and obnoxious about every topic and his opinions no longer have any basis in reality. Whether he actually believes his rants or is just doing it for the benefit of provocative TV, he needs a rest. And just as I'm writing this, he's on TV saying that if senior citizens need a cellphone that has an automatic 911 call feature, they shouldn't be out on the streets. My, my.

Both clips were funny. Loved the first one.
Someone needs to educate this guy really quick. He wants to see the worlds best and he doesn't have a clue who is in his backyard. If he researches all his jobs like this one, he wouldn't have a job.
If course, knowing the LA media, the whole thing could have been a set up to do just what they did. It is difficult to get the LA media's attention and it looks like the Sparks are starting to get some.
Really loved Tameka Johnson's face. She didn't find anything he did funny.

Exactly. Now, I'm hoping Sylvia gets well so she can throw one down.

| Finally got a chance to see the video... That was indeed priceless. Reminds me of when LL was on CBS and got on Jim Hill's butt..... But from a comedic point of view.

| I don't think Kimmel was saying anything about the game, and the once every six year thing did make for a good joke.

This is totally the bomb. For every press jerk comment write letters, do whatever it takes. I love the in your face. Lets all do our positive publicity in whatever means we can. It can start with local print and Tv negative comments. We can influence by talking to people about the league. New commercial? Music "Aint now Stopping Us Now" . Video all higlights including dunks. Tag line :"Told Ya Didnt I?"

I agree. I'm not generally a fan of his, but that's like the first joke I've ever heard from him that made me laugh and wasn't depressingly sexist.

| That video was great and I like LL more for calling him out like that. I especially like that she straight up told him he owed them an apology. Fantastic.
