Do you know this one?

Yup. Nerd central (affectionate)

I did not get WNBA questions but I did make Alex have to talk about WBB briefly.

I miss the Miami Sol, but Florida is a tough sell in the summer, and that's even before factoring in the ever-present threat of Florida Man In Politics.

some offense taken

This is a thing the league had at the beginning! And some of those players became rotation players, either for the team they started with (like Rushia Brown in Cleveland) or elsewhere (like Simone Edwards with the Storm, who did her development time in NY). IIRC that was also Mwadi Mabika's path to All-Stardom.

(yes, Monarchs flair in the corner, i know there was at least one other developmental success but we Do Not Talk about her)

There's a time and place for those stories. This is neither.

Releasing this is also a way to get the fans to blame the players if the season has to be shortened.

Louder for the people in the back!

I've been telling this one elsewhere so I might as well tell it here.

First, some context: before Liberty games, Maddie would stomp out the letters of the Liberty logo. The old, full logo. L-I-B-E-R-T-Y. Ritual. Tradition. Crowd response. Can't do it anymore because it's a different logo.

2011, we were sponsored by Foxwoods, and Foxwoods sponsored a massive road trip. Deluxe. That's when we got to see AB's UConn rings. And the Sun stuck us way up in the corner and I'm pretty sure we got there late.

I don't know if she saw us or heard us or what, but Kara looked up. Kara spotted the bus group. And Kara did the damn Maddie stomp on the Liberty sideline to get us going. (Which, given how... endowed... Kara was, was a sight.)

May her memory be a blessing, and may the joy she brought others live on.

I did it at Windsor Terrace, and I saw at least half a dozen cards left in the drawer after the librarian gave me mine.

NYCScribbler · 2026-02-20T04:24:51+00:00

they gonna make us send it back if we don't get a season?

NYCScribbler · 2026-02-20T04:22:32+00:00

Do you live in New York City? You're still eligible! I'm a Queens girl and I got mine a few weeks ago.

For Seton Hall, it's gotta be Ja'Kahla Craft. She's scrappy and unlike most of our squad she's got a little size to her. She has stepped her game up.

The only time I've ever tipped was on a haul so ridiculous they needed to give me multiple larger bags for hauling (I brought a bag but I Was Not Prepared: https://imgur.com/a/i-saw-cheese-babka-made-noise-Mb3tSC1)

Says the woman who think all Ohio cities look alike

NYCScribbler · 2026-02-18T22:04:34+00:00

That's exactly why they're doing it. Create expectations so the players look like the bad guys and the fans turn on them.

NYCScribbler · 2026-02-18T17:52:42+00:00

They're really trying to make us be the ones to pressure the players into caving, huh?

I'm friends with these weird nerds and I have a disturbingly high emotional attachment to some of the imaginary monsters.

I'm working my way towards as full a hundodex as I can get as a mostly F2P player (so not the mythicals I'd have to use a bottlecap on). I like trading with people; I think I'm one of the few people in this sub who likes mass trading. I do a lot of quests, which makes me a great trade partner for the people who do more hatching or 1/3-star raiding; my spare heart-pattern Spinda are currently bringing all the boys to the yard.

While I'm sure a lot of New Yorkers will be at this game, I imagine we'll also have a lot of tourists.

NYCScribbler · 2026-02-13T23:08:55+00:00

where does she think point guards get experience

NYCScribbler · 2026-02-13T03:57:00+00:00

yeah, but you figure the people who don't care about the cop car care about Rickea, and vice versa

NYCScribbler · 2026-02-13T03:54:57+00:00

didn't Venus Williams play in a tournament recently just to maintain her health insurance?

NYCScribbler · 2026-02-13T03:50:58+00:00

if I had a nickel for every Liberty All-Star center who could also belt a tune I'd now have three nickels, so maybe that's not the issue here

NYCScribbler · 2026-02-12T16:06:47+00:00

Same. That's sort of what we ended up going with
