We don't watch sports (unless they involve Justin Timberlake) but apparently there was a big brawl in the middle of the WNBA LA Sparks vs. Detroit Shock game last night...
USA Today is calling all conspiracy theorists to the front lines, calling it "a little too coincidental that the attention-starved WNBA had a rollicking good cat fight last night involving Candace Parker, Lisa Leslie and a whole lot of other members of the LA Sparks and Detroit Shock." We're with Jezebel on this one - women are entirely as capable of getting in a sports-related dust-up as men are. We (and by we, I mean me, Scanner Verena) remember getting our own version of worked up during a high-school basketball game - after a few too many "Blondie" cat-calls, we made the heated mistake of giving the rowdy crowd a middle finger. (Ooooh, fiesty!) Anyway, that's just us - and this fight looks nasty. You can't fake that kind of vitriol.
USA Today is using the Danica Patrick / Milka Duno towel-snapping confrontation from the other day as an alternate example. We call bullshit. Milka seems really annoying.
