June 27th, 2003: Detroit at New York

Detroit Shock 75, New York Liberty 69

Becky Hammon tears her ACL, both she and the season are done for, and there really isn't much else to say.


Ah, the joys of coming insanely early to the games. Crystal came in and it looked like she was favoring her right foot. If she got an ankle injury, on top of Miko’s bad ankle, someone is going to have to suffer a lingering and painful death.

She said she was fine. I swear, Crystal said she was fine. The next thing I know, she’s in dress whites on the bench. “I’m fine,” my ass. At least she has better fashion sense than Miko and VJ. The Continuum Recovery Report (tm?) said that C-Rob had a sprained ankle. Memo to Crystal: If you have a sprained ankle, you are not fine.

OH.MY.FUCK. Becky went down randomly clutching her knee and Fro and Lisa White had to carry her into the locker room. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Please, gods, goddesses, and asexual deities of sport, let it not be a torn ACL. Please. Please!!!!!!!

Detroit is officially on the Shit List with Cleveland and Los Angeles. Dirty, dirty, dirty play. And shitty reffing didn’t help either.

Apologies for the short, shallow, and unsually profane report. I’m in a mood to perpetrate violence, just to get the image out of my mind.
