    A Little Motivation...

    Now I don't know about you guys, but I keep hearing this over and over and over...and I'm kinda getting sick of it. Going From Bitter to Better If Whalen had been healthy, if she hadn't smashed a knee and then mashed an ankle in the playoffs, the Sun would be hoisting a WNBA championship...

    Single game tickets

    I know, I looked the other night to see if I could buy better seats just for that game and I had the same "problem" (if we want to call it that). It doesn't even look like I can get extra seats near me so some of my friends can join.. but I guess that's a good thing.

    [OBIT] Army coach Maggie Dixon dead

    This is truly a heartbreaking story, I've been reading about it over at Rebkell's today whenever I've had the chance. So sad and so sudden. Especially when I came across the video of the big celebration after her team won the Patriot league title, just a month ago. It looked like an incredible...

    Monarchs To Be Televised For A Franchise-Record 13 Games

    I love the fact that we are getting more away games, that's the way it should be. The home games are the ones we should be attending...not watching on tv. I also notice that one of the televised games is the one @Chicago on May 23rd. Maybe we should plan on watching that one at a sports bar or...

    Trade Of The Day

    http://www.wnba.com/voices/offseasonblog.html The Fever are making some moves today! I didn't see that one coming. I figured we kind of needed the post help with DeMya out...

    Monarchs Free Agent Signings

    I think the big question with Janeth, other than whether or not she'd leave Houston, is will she even play in the W this summer? She's a big part of the Brazillian team that will be competing in the World Championships later this year. She's been known to skip the WNBA season in order to play...

    Monarchs Basketball 101

    Thanks! I'm such a mess, lol. I also have a new rep this season, so that's another piece of mail I need to track down...

    Monarchs Basketball 101

    Hmm...I totally forgot about this event. I'll have to try to make it. Anyone have the details? I'm still kinda disorganized from travel, I'll have to dig through mountains of mail when I get home to find the invite. I didn't have to RSVP or anything did I?

    Shoot Around

    Of course they are going to plan something fun while I´m out of the country! While it´s possible that I will be back by the 18th, I´m not sure, so I don´t think I´ll RSVP. I´m supposed to fly back on the 17th...but I might stay here longer. I´m glad I finally have access to a computer though...

    2006 Schedule Released

    Well get the barf bag handy...cause I'm pretty sure it's New York. They've already sent out packages to the NY season ticket holders. While most fans of the W agree that they want it in another city, most cities aren't willing to host the ASG for financial reasons it seems. The unofficial...

    2006 Schedule Released

    Not only is it a stupid trip for the Monarchs, but it's making it difficult for me to make my Chi-town road trip! I want to be able to actually stay in Chicago for a little while. I can't miss the Saturday game with the ring and banner ceremony! But if I want to see the Monarchs in Chicago, I...

    From today's Marty Mac's World column

    I completely agree. But the obvious reaction when any team is under-performing is to axe the coach. Even when it's not the coach's fault that the team isn't winning. The Kings don't have the "horses" for Whiz's system, which is a good thing for us. I don't think that the current Kings roster...

    WNBA Announces Rule Changes For 2006 Season

    I like the rule changes. The 24 second shot clock will speed the game up and that plays to our team's strength. The Monarchs are very athletic and can easily play the run-and-gun style. I forgot to check...the backcourt violation time should change too. Any mention of how many seconds they...

    From today's Marty Mac's World column

    Personally....I don't think the Kings deserve him. Whiz is an excellent coach, he has an eye for talent, and makes use of his whole roster. Not to mention his whole concept of defense winning games. He's probably the kind of guy they need. The Maloofs love him, and...why wouldn't they? He...

    Lil Walker?

    Yeah, probably a mid-season return for DeMya. I don't know what training camp is going to be like this season. Because of the world championships, the season is starting a few weeks earlier than usual. Who knows who will even be back from their overseas commitments... At least DeMya is due in...

    THE ring

    Ruthie definitely gets one. Hell, even Lady Grooms gets one. And it's not like she was doing any "scouting" for the team during the season.

    Lil Walker?

    The WNBA.com Offseason Blog Finally this weekend... a rumor is floating around the league about an All-Star out West who may or may not be pregnant. Until this is confirmed or denied, we'll leave it up to you to guess just who we're talking about...
