Sun open with Liberty

The WNBA released the preseason schedule today and the Connecticut Sun will play its preseason opener on May 22 at Mohegan Sun Arena against the same New York Liberty team which knocked the Sun out of the playoffs. OK, maybe it won't be the same team as many of the stars on both teams figure to completing their playing obligations with their European teams.

The opener will be played at 7 p.m. on the 22nd. Connecticut will play at Atlanta on May 27 at 7:30 p.m. before wrapping up the preseason with a May 31 home matinee against Los Angeles.

Speaking of L.A., the Sparks signed free agent forward Tina Thompson on Thursday. The former Houston Comets star was being courted by the Sun among other teams before opting to play for her hometown team.

Jim, what do you think of your colleague, David Borges, demeaning women's basketball? Please read his blog. He was really making fun of it, comparing the women's game with boys high school basketball. Quite uninformed and disrespectful, in my opinion. I have always respected your writing and I hope you will comment on this. Thanks.
