Rebecca Lobo interview with Sarah Spain including info on "Basketball - Love Story" Oct 30 episode

[eebmg]

Rebecca gives a brilliant interview with some UConn stuff (nothing new) but mentions the Oct 30 episode of Basketball-Love Story where Diana Taurasi is featured somewhere. A particular focus on how the WNBA used her and others in a less than a flattering way to
popularize the league.

Not sure of the new episode. I am at a loss to figure out the schedule. But the last half hour of an older episode (Sept 27 original air date) was devoted to the UConn / TN rivalry.

My favorite was the tidbit that the TN players in the 95 MLK game were stretching on a place on the court where the UConn players normally stretch. Jen Rizzotti asked them to move, they did not. Rebecca says Jen was super pissed.

Generally well done and riveting imho. They discussed the end of the series but I was surprised that they did not even mention the renewal (even as a print addendum) which was announced in Aug.

Actually a lot of good general basketball stories in this series as well but I imagine not of general interest on the BY

If you are a basketball fan, this is a great show to watch.

Just caught a few. The Dream Team topic was very well done with nice insight/interview snippets in how the rest of the world looked at them.

It is a great show, I missed part of the 10/30 Show and tuned in to catch the Pat Summitt part. Have watched a few of them, although not too interested in the NBA parts.
