Metro Classic and the hype

[Cochise]

I'm banning Cochise for a very stupid and inaccurate post, but I want to leave the username up here because the person deserves it. DO NOT diss teenaged girls on this message board!

I don't think Glenn wrote that article, Derrick Mullen (Hoopking) did.

Traveller, doesn't really matter who wrote the article, Cochise knows better than to down any player. If Cochise has a problem, he can send a PM or an email directly to me.

I see players play all the time and no matter what, I find it very hard to criticize, because any player who attempts to get on the hardwood and compete hard does not deserve to be ridiculed.

I think if you try to compare Tina or any girls dunk with a boy's dunk you are going to be disappointed. I can say that when Tina did dunk at the Metro Classics it brought the "house down". It was by far the most exciting play of the day. If the purpose of a dunk is to excite the crowd, I would say that Tina's dunk ranks with any I have seen.

I've only seen Prahalis a few times. But what I have seen and read in the past Prahalis should be compared with Pistol Pete or Jason Williams not Jerry West. I'm hoping she is more like Pistol Pete. The game needs this type of excitement.

HK - I liked the article and I agree with you: this is a unique place because it places the girls first and disrespect is dealt with quickly. I was just trying to be accurate and did not wish to engage or encourage that poster any further as he had skirted close to the edge a few times before.

See you all at the game.

Apologies to Derrick. I am out of town, so I'm not the one who posted the story. I just noticed the wrong byline on the story! It is corrected.
