The 10 Minute Rant: WNBA and More

The 10-Minute Rant is just a way for one man, yours truly, to get a little steam off my chest on sports, crazy or just in the now, and see how many people agree, or don’t, but it will be fun.  We all sit and listen to some of the craziest stuff when it comes to sports, especially with all talk shows from coast to coast. They set the tone for what most think are the real story of the day, and frame it the way they want. We all know most of them are full of chit. So Join me as we let it go on them and others as the 10-Minute Rant gets underway.

The WNBA has become one of the hottest subjects of any day recently. We can’t get through one day without controversy and personally, I love the WNBA And have been a fan for some time, but a quiet fan like you should be with that league. Come on it was a fun way to get by when the NBA was finished and the game was, well cute. Yes it has always been a rough league, but it is cute, fun to watch them rough each other up. Now they play a game that is universal.

The last two days it has been, ‘oh my gosh, they left Clark off the Olympic team’. Because no one has put her on her ass in a few days they must make up something. She is a rookie, get over it, but… No matter how much you may have hated what Patt McAfee said he was dead on. The WNBA should be bending over for the player who has brought thousands, dare I say millions to your game. Trying to act like now all of a sudden people just said, ‘hey let’s watch the WNBA’, hell no! It was brought to many by a dynamic player, nothing wrong with that. The NBA was a dying game till a dynamic player from NC came along and brought millions to the game. Embrace her and the game and leave out all the BS. By the way, she will love the break off the game she has been playing for a year straight.

The NBA finals are in full steam and man are they fire! NOT! First, they took like what, a month off between series? I know it was not a month but come on the Mavs had momentum and it just does not last over time. The Celtics are a very good team and I know they are just playing the team in front of them, but beating a 5 seed from the west does not impress me at all. I truly believe all top 4 seeds in the west could have beat the Celtics, just sayin.

While I am on the NBA, can we just say we are sorry to the Lakers for their loss? Getting turned down by Hurley has to sting right? I mean you have LBJ and AD still, no? What does that say about them, and the organization? Who can they get now, JJ? I bet he won’t even say yes after the way they went after Hurley and put him aside. Okay James it’s player/coach for you, step up, if Dave Cowens can do it so can you!

Still have not caught a MLB game this season, is it worth watching or not? Did tune in to my annual NHL finals game I catch every year. I get into the NHL playoffs as it can be as exciting as anything. I think we take some of the attributes of the NHL and NBA and put them together. You know, add the enforcer to NBA, let them rumble like the ’80s again, and then we have a game.

I’ll leave with the Pittsburgh Steelers signing a 3-year extension with the best coach in football, Mike Tomlin. What a great move and one that will prove to have them back in a SB before he leaves, mark it now. He is the best at making the most out of nothing and now he has a bit of something.  He will find a way to come in second in that division this year and into the playoffs.

Till next time when I just may go off on Mike Tyson!! Stay with EDF Lifestyle for more great content.
