Nancy Lieberman, who is 50, has been signed to a seven day contract by the Detroit Shock.
Any thoughts?

You can read the story on ESPN.com, specifically under the Women's BB section.

Hmmm...a distraction from the important and ugly matters of the past few days? Maybe it's more of a player/coach thing while Mahorn is away. But couldn't she just be a coach for a few days??? Don't get me wrong...I wanna say YOU GO GIRL at 50 and I think the comments about age spots and form-fitting uniforms are cruel. But whaaaaaaaaaaat are these people thinking?  ? The word "dignity" keeps popping in my head...as in, please save it! |

Just sad. If the league wants to be taken seriously, this isn't the way to gain credibility

Just sad. If the league wants to be taken seriously, this isn't the way to gain credibility couldn't have put it better myself.....this just gives fodder to those that think our league is a sideshow to begin with.....i really think laimbeer is pissed that he's not a nba coach....and i think he has conflicting feelings about the "w"..... he thinks he's better than his current position.....and doesn't really have a full respect for our league.....just a condesending acceptance of his present situation.....jmo..... and lieberman should have had the class to politely decline..... |

I was hoping that Lieberman would have a "billion" last night.
A "billion" is a statistical line in the final boxscore of 1 followed by a bunch of zeroes...you get it by playing but having absolutely no impact on the game whatsoever.
I was disappointed. She had one assist I think and two turnovers. At least she didn't score.
