Or her claim that she was pushed and did not throw a punch was bogus as well. Leslie was clearly throwing punches as she went to the floor. The only reason this is a big deal is because some people are trying to make this into a gender issue. If this was a NBA game, there would be no issue as to who got involved and how.

This fight proves that women's sports in the United States has reached parity with men's sports. We do not need Title 9 anymore.

Just MHO, but your comment is not funny, and the picture you posted is worse. Those animals are trained to kill each other for sport. Why would post a picture of a felony that will get you sent to jail for 3 years? Great choice for an officiating website.

Mark,
I found your post and picture to be funny on any website. By the way, any conspiracy theorists think this was staged to get people to actually notice the WNBA? I can't say I knew they were playing until I saw the fight on the news.

Does anyone know if the WNBA has the same rules/policies on fighting and leaving the bench as the NBA?? If so, there's going to be a bunch of suspensions from this thing.

Yup, same laws as dog fighting. And Michael something does know all about animal fighting laws.

No, but I like dogs a helluva lot more than I like a bunch of birds.

Not in and of itself, but just because something is a serious issue doesn't mean we can't laugh at it. I'd laugh at a good dog fighting joke as well.
