Rare Bird. Go Sue!

I don’t watch women’s hoops that much. Sorry, I know I should. But as much as possible, there’s one player I really follow. She’s the Seattle Storm’s Sue Bird. When she was at UConn I became a fan. I remember one time when the WNBA jerseys were on sale since it was off-season and the Sue Bird was down to $25. Man, if I was a girl maybe I would have bought it. Instead I bought the T-Mac Orlando #1 and a Julius Erving Philly #6.

I did get to watch Bird’s Storm twice: the first was in New York where they played the Liberty and the second was in Detroit against the Shock.

But I’m still a fan and made it a point to watch Sue play for Team USA in the last Beijing Olympics.

The Seattle Storm without Lauren Jackson are at 22-12 (good for second) in the WNBA’s Western Conference where they will be up against Candace Parker and the Sparks. Parker and the San Antonio Stars’ (Russian import) Becky Hammon and Sophia Young are legit MVP candidates but Sue Bird should pick it up. It would be a crime if she didn’t sure.
