I am happy (Updated)
The WNBA has handed down the suspensions for Tuesday’s brawl. I know many are unhappy about the lenience towards Candace Parker in particular. But for extremely selfish reasons I am very very very glad. Because this means I get to see her play on Friday. Woo hoo!
What’s making me cranky is the total absence of anything said about the abysmal refs. Where’s their punishment?
Update: Though I’ll admit I am very nervous about Leslie and Parker being so rested before we play then in the Garden.

What’s wrong with them being rested? Shouldn’t that be a good thing? What withe them being properly rested and full of stamina?

If LA’s good players are well-rested than it will be harder for my New York team to beat them. We prefer them knackered. I’m all for my team being well-rested, which they will be.
