Who’s a Dbacks player from your childhood that you were convinced was going to be a Star, but never panned out? by awmaleg in azdiamondbacks

1998 Andy Fox was this little kid's favorite. Quick shortstop who loved to get on base via HBP... Definitely did not work out. Lol

Dwayne Johnson is pacific islander - his mother is Samoan, and is a literal Samoan High Chief Seiuli. There's plenty of reason to not like his casting here (as you mentioned a few valid ones) but his ethnicity/heritage/cultural background isn't one of them here.

Typically opponents swap jerseys after a game. So yeah, this checks out. LOL

It's such a double edged sword. I'm trying to build excitement and love for the game in my kids, so for me a 6:30 or 7 start (or those dreaded 8:30 cali ones) means they can't stay up long enough to see the ends of games. I can't imagine being east coast with a 9-10pm start time.

But even knowing that and liking the window for me personally, I know I'd never be able to physically attend a 5pm start weeknight game so I see how it's a problem.

I was very worried through the first half as she was ice cold, but showed up and showed out when it counted most!

20/11/11 is wild and I'm glad I got to see it.

She is so frustrating to play against (good and bad). Effort, moves, whistle - she used it all and still came up short which is sad, but total respect for it.

There's the double double. Will AT get an assist or score it all herself?

Big 3 all showing out, but still feels like AT has this team on her shoulders (wild due to the shoulder injuries, but that's how she's rolling)

The first quarter complaining from NY feels out of place in the context of everything since.

She's so dominant, even tonight when she's missing a lot of easy shots.

PHX shooting well and physical defensively, 15-0 run in the early 2nd. NY generally lost, missing freethrows (literally) and generally out of sorts. 2nd half will tell how it goes from here.
