    Season Tickets

    I got mine too, but I have a question...The Monarchs site shows a preseason game against Conn., but we didn't get a ticket for that. Am I reading it wrong or did I miss something? Also, FYI, just got an e-mail game that the May 5 pre-season game against NY was moved back one day to May 4.

    (Non-Monarchs, but WNBA-related) The new Chicago team

    Considering the men's team is the "Bulls", it certainly could have been worse!

    Game 2 goes to the Sun

    They certainly did not bring their "A" game, and yet were in position to win. DeMya's mistake was crucial. Apparently Coach T argued for the foul, but Whiz overruled him. And Kara's mistake in calling the time-out kept the Monarchs from having one last chance with 2 seconds left. All in all a...

    Houston laying the Smacketh Down...

    Wow! I just got home and caught the score on the ticker. I never would have thought Houston (or anyone) would take two from Seattle at home. On one hand, I was looking forward to playing Seattle and avenging last year (and not having to travel so far). On the other hand, well, there is no other...

    Western Conference Finals here we come!

    Great win, but also room to improve (especially free throws). It's wonderful to finally see Ticha play to her potential. ARCO was rocking! What a great atmosphere. BTW, does anyone know why FeiFei wasn't there (even in street clothes)?

    2005 Coach of the Year is...

    Luv 13, I wasn't always his strongest supporter either. And I agree with MBF that he would like to cut it into pieces and share it with his team. And I agree with Reign that the championship is what the team really wants, BUT This is a man who came in under difficult circumstances and has...

    GAME 1: Monarchs @ LA Sparks

    I agree. It was a great game, but there are still things to work on. Keep your focus for Friday, and hope Houston can do something tonight.

    Info for your scheduling

    No problem, 6th. I just didn't want to be a day late!

    Info for your scheduling

    6th, the schedule my rep sent me shows the first game on Thursday, Sept. 8. Is this incorrect? Maybe that was just preliminary.

    ARCO Viewing Party

    While I thought ARCO should be opened up to everyone to watch the game, I thought the event was very nice. They had the Jumbotron lowered to floor level, and tables set up. There were two buffet stations with various appetizers, a popcorn stand (fresh popped!) and water/soft drinks. They also...

    GAME 1: Monarchs @ LA Sparks

    MBF, I think Ticha is a much better defender than Powell, and having her switch to CH, a least for part of the game, makes sense. I remember a few years ago when the Monarchs played at Washington, Ticha shut Holdsclaw down.

    GAME 1: Monarchs @ LA Sparks

    Reign, I agree with all your points. I thought it was one of Ticha's best games of the season. I also thought Yo was playing like a woman possessed, and apparently she is sick? (maybe a cold?). Anyway, for the majority of this game the team was focused and controlled the tempo. They need to use...

    It's Sparks' Season of Hope

    I don't think any team or game can or should be taken lightly. While the Monarchs may have respect for LA's talent, they are no longer intimidated by it. I think that is the difference.

    The TV schedule for the first round of the playoffs

    I have nothing against rewards for STH, but I wish they distinguished between rewards and events. The playoffs are an event, and to generate as much excitement for the playoffs (and even to sell more tickets for Friday), this viewing party should be open to EVERYONE who wants to come. As for STH...

    Playoff Scenarios

    I don't think the Monarchs need any other reason to get pumped up for LA, but having them lay down against Houston was a nice touch. I agree with NBH that I like the LA match-up for travel reasons. The Monarchs can fly home tomorrow and get some time at home before heading out. It will be a...

    Monarchs V. Seattle

    I wish I had a transcript of it. I wasn't really paying much attention because the opposing player interviews usually have the format of: comment on your play - compliment other team - props to your team - optomism about the future. Koz and Krista said something about how it must be nice to be...
