Remember when ESPN used to talk less and show more actual sports highlights.  I do.

Want that about the same time MTV showed videos?  :'(

Not surprisingly, Baylor standout Brittney Griner was taken #1 in the WNBA draft.

I found it more than amusing to hear the national sports people talking about Griner's prospects in the NBA! They were comparing LeBron James to Griner (stats, not talent). Seriously? I don't ever see a woman playing in the NBA, even if there wasn't a WNBA. Griner wouldn't be able to compete in the developmental league. I don't see her putting up solid numbers at the D1 level either. I do believe she could be competitive at the D3 level. She does stand 6'8", if I remember correctly.

This reminds me of the talk about Mia Hamm playing in the MLS. Even she admitted there was no way she could compete.

The physical DNA of a woman is a lot different than a man, obviously.

What do you think?

There is an easy, easy, EASY way to answer this question.  Invite her to the predraft camp in Chicago and let her work out with and against other draft prospects.  I'm not talking about personal workouts in Waco where she dribbles around a folding chair and lays the ball in.  Let her go through that camp and evaluate her against NBA-hopeful-level competition.  We don't have to speculate on this.

I didn't think it was worth opening up a new thread.
