WNBA

Not very many people are aware of the WNBA. It's probably one of the most discriminated against things out there!! I did a paper on discrimination in woman's sport for my History of Sport class and had Candace Parker as on of the main topics. I think it's a lot better than NBA where they only play up to their potential in the post season, and proved by the other nights game, they can get up holding the ball and it's not a travel? She is starting to make more people aware of the woman's sport and one of the most advertised athletes out there!

This was a while ago but this is her rookie debut in the WNBA..after a very successful career with Tennessee Lady Vols.

She has her own website as well if you want to check it out!

The WNBA season starts up pretty soon and since it's so badly discriminated against it's pretty hard to get the chance to watch it on satelite TV. So we have a special channel that's for an NBA team that plays WNBA in the summer when there is no NBA on.

  5. No one likes the NBA either, at least if they are real B-ball fans. College is where the real games are.
