Now there is a serious all star club.

I guess that means we can say that Babe is the best basketball player from SE Texas.  This is a very impressive group when you have super talent even on the 3rd team.

[hjhawks]

Three teams???? Doesn't this kinda water down the process????  HAHAHA!!!  ;D  That is some serious talent!!!

[whsalum]

Even I can't argue when you have a player like Weatherspoon on the 3rd team and I can argue with myself  ;D ;D

after the stun that griner pulled in the texas tech game i dont believe she deserves the honor of be annouced to any special team..
she has spit in the in the face of womens basketball..

[The Cook]

I think Griner should be done for the year.

[future_coach]

i think she should have lost her scholarship.
i think she should have lost everything and been barred from the sport
the punishment she got was B******T

[Aiden1]

And what about the girl who slung her? That was not part of the game and I would of been upset also. The girl was clearly trying to bully her. If one then both should be!!!!!

[The Goat]

Griner isn't going any where, I'm really gonna watch her play now :o. It's tournament time, ratings and money, Griner/Uconn, Griner/Tennesse I wanna see that, I wanna see how she handles those types of programs. :o
