1. Hooray! We finally have a winning team in Seattle!
It's been since 1979, but I never gave up! OK, maybe I gave up a few times here and there ;)
:bounce:

2. IIRC, Houston has (had) a very fine team.
Sad thing that one of their star players died of brain cancer a while back. Lot of mourning in the city.

3. I didn't know she died
That is very sad. Houston won the first few championships when the WNBA started. :(

4. Yes, indeed.
The inner city (the Dem area) was quite proud of those championships. And yet, the fucking Rockets, who haven't won a championship since the mid-90s, get a new fucking arena built for them to suck in. :grr:

5. Typical
I've always enjoyed women's sports. I'm glad that a lot of people turned out to watch this game here tonight. :)

10. Well let's not compare this to 1979.

Sorry, it's just not the same.

11. And that's because?
Victories are not diminished simply because they are ignored.
