WNBA & CT SUN - The good news and, well, the "questionable" news?
Let's start with the good news. The CT Sun of the WNBA, the women's professional basketball league, is an excellent value for families, basketball fans, and anyone who loves sports. Last year, while stalling in the playoffs, the SUN had the best record in the WNBA, led by UCONN greats Tina Charles (WNBA MVP), Asjha Jones and one of my all-time favorites (ex-Tennessee Lady Vol) Kara Lawson. My wife and I have seen almost every home games every year since the franchise moved from Orlando in 2003 and have loved it. And for those of you who don't like the women's game because "they can't dunk," either you've never seen one live, or you need those "macho-sports-fan" glasses cleaned! The WNBA action is skilled, tough, and as athletic as the NBA - and that's from a longtime Celtics fan.
The firing of Mike Thibault and staff (my "questionable news") recently was a surprise to many of us. We wish Mike and his family the best - no doubt he will be coaching again soon with his long history in the NBA and WNBA. Whoever fills his shoes will have a terrific nucleus and strong bench for the up-coming season.
The BVR (Binbin's Value Rating) is 4 out of 4 aces. (FYI - 4 aces with a kicker is tops and rarely handed out) Almost ten years ago, my family bought me a season ticket for Christmas. It was an awesome gift! If you don't know what to get for someone who's a basketball fan, let Santa know - it's an great gift!
For Season Tickets, Game Packages, or single tickets for next summer's season, go to the Official CT SUN SITE at www.wnba.com/sun.com or Ticketmaster.
That's all for now
Have a "Royal" Holiday Season.
