Message: [QUOTE="#12in21, post: 3972635, member: 10763"] Not an attack, but Maya, through her families involvement with Jonathan Irons, first came to support his innocence while still at UCONN. Throughout her entire (to date!) stellar career with the Lynx she maintained that belief and through her commitment secured Jonathan's freedom. My assumption is that her romantic interests in him grew out of her deepening relationship over time not the other way around. Forgive me but I'll go with Maya's take and the vacating of his conviction by the courts, that Jonathan didn't need to 'turn over a new leaf' but rather deserved the opportunity to live a life of freedom after spending decades in jail after being falsely convicted. I do, however, share your wish that she was still playing the game and agree that I do so for selfish reasons. In several threads I have spoken of the beauty of her game. Seeing her play the game is just a joy to behold. In my mind, there is no question as to whether Maya belongs in all the HOF's. I would be shocked if once she has finally finished playing the game ( whether that has happened already or sometime in the future) she was not enshrined in the HOF. She is truly one of the best that ever played, both collegiately and professionally. [/QUOTE]
