...okay, so now I have to follow Eastern Illinois, don't I? I mean, one Sol player is one thing, but two?

From the article:

Most recently she was the marketing director for Sportsbum, LLC and the lead WNBA Correspondent for DraftNasty.com. |
I never heard Sportsbum or Draftnasty.com. I might have to check both of those out.
Anyway, congrats to Sheri! Is this her first-ever coaching gig?

Unfortunately for Storm fans her name will always be associated with her screwing up at the end of the second game of the 2004 championship which nearly cost the Storm the trophy. Those few horrible seconds are burned in my memory.

If Kristen Rasmussen joins them, you're buying season tickets.
