Well....the 'people'...

are really Twitter feeds. I put them there based on twitter keywords. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Can you tell me why people like Twitter?

I don’t understand its appeal.

I think the Cover It Live thing is set up to pull anything off of Twitter that has “WNBA” in it. Still obnoxious though.

by skeb on Aug 29, 2010 8:10 PM EDT reply actions  

Obnoxious huh?

That’s why we have both ways set up, so you can go with your preference :)

by Jessica Lantz on Aug 29, 2010 8:11 PM EDT up reply actions  

I don’t mind it on the Cover It Live so much, I like the other things pulling in from Twitter. I’ve just always found the people that go out of their way to point out how much they hate the WNBA to be obnoxious. No one is making them watch =)

by skeb on Aug 29, 2010 8:13 PM EDT up reply actions  

oh okay

well i’ve never used twitter and i don’t plan on using anytime soon, so i’m staying off Cover It Live from now on. Honestly, what the hell are these dorks doing? If you don’t like the sport, no one’s forcing you hammerheads to watch it!

Indiana has a much better chance than that final score indicated

It only fell apart in the 4th quarter

A salary cap move..

Cappie and Mazzante to the Libs from Phoenix, Candice Dupree from the Sky to the Merc, Shameka Christon and Cathrine Kraayeveld from the Libs to the Sky

Cappie asked for the trade actually… http://www.azcentral.com/sports/mercury/articles/2010/03/30/20100330phoenix-mercury-cappie-pondexter.html

How do you ask to be traded from the team you just won a championship with?

Wow…my opinion of Poindexter wasn’t high to begin with…

Here is the CiL response from Petrel

on whether Cappie is happy with the trade, etc….
Yeah, I think so. She wanted to get out from under Dee and Penny in Phoenix, she wanted to get involved in the fashion industry and she wanted to be the star for a team. She got all three.

Perhaps that explains more about her trade request.

Who'da thunk? 21-8 after the first 10 minutes?

Anyone expect to see this miserable first Q from the Libs?

Carson has more...

points off the bench than any of the Libs starters…she’s the only reason this game is only a dozen different…

Will you please tell the Libs to start playing now? lol

that was a wasted defensive set

there wasn’t a need for that double…

Uh oh.

Not a beautiful second half start for NY

I will watch the 3rd quarter

and if they’re not winning by then, I’m going to bed.

You might be hitting the rack early tonight then if the Libs keep this up…

It's been a bad evening on Cover It Live

You haters can all kiss your own orifices. The WNBA isn’t loved because it’s one of those sports that’s hyped to be more than what it is and all the players are can’t miss trash-talking superstars. The WNBA is loved because it’s NOT one of those sports. There isn’t a problem with steroids, cheating, violence, or problems off the court. And for the last time, NO ONE IS MAKING YOU ASSHOLES WATCH THIS GAME.
