CHELSEA GRAY WEDGIE!!!!! (3Q, Lynx/Aces)

SHE'S 8 OF 8!!!!

Kayla McBride omfg (she's 7-7 from 3)

also, anytime life gives you the chance to eat Filipino-Mexican fusion food you should eat it!

hell of a score diff in Lynx/Aces even though it's not even halfway through the second quarter yet (Minnesota leads 45-22 as I write this)

this is pedantic, but looking at the bottom 5 teams in a 13 team league spans everything from "we want the #1 overall pick next year" to "we're trying to be the last team in the playoffs" which are somewhat different goals

why does this keep happening to us

it makes it kind of difficult to see where players wearing grey/black uniforms are on the court, which makes me feel like I need an eye exam

safe travels!

I don't love going to the gym late but I do love watching Jeopardy at the gym so it kind of works out (pun intended)

phew

she had a couple ankle tweaks in the Atlanta game but didn't leave the game, guess it was more serious than it looked

good luck!! hope you can eat something nice once you're back home!

"you know Koclanes has some plays up his sleeve" do we?? do we know that??

damn, big shot for Naz Hillmon

can't wait for @danaholtzbert.bsky.social's "what did we learn from today's games?" post

Tsunami advisory issued for Calif. after powerful quake near Russia A tsunami watch has been issued for the California coast after a powerful earthquake struck across the Pacific Ocean.

“A tsunami advisory has been issued for the entire California coast after a powerful earthquake struck across the Pacific Ocean on Tuesday.” www.sfgate.com/news/article...

oh NO I hadn't realized

YES CECI YES

I haven't been watching closely but Coach Nat always saves that advancement timeout so I'm pretty confident that she's correct

there have been so many reviews in this game that I went to the gym, picked up dinner, came home, all before the end of regulation

someone threw a neon green dildo on the court???

heck yeah!

looks delicious!

good luck and safe travels!

best day ever

Leite's three-point percentage suggests that nobody should be closing out on her particularly hard, especially because she's a good driver, but I'll take it!
