WNBA

Phoenix Mercury added to the woes of the San Antonio Stars. Sigh.

NASCAR side note - here is hoping and praying for a complete recovery for Dale Earnhardt, Jr. who had concussion-like symptoms and will not race today. If he still is not clear, then Jeff Gordon will drive on the 24th.

Lady Grid out.

A Tea Time Post

Normally, I have published my selections by now, but a belated burst of spring cleaning energy hit after I spent most of the morning finishing reading a fiction novel. As a result, it's nearly tea time when I greet my faithful readers.

The American League Prevails

MLB
The boys of summer are enjoying some down time away from the spotlight and the ball park. Congratulations to the American League All-Stars in their win over the National League All-Stars. I wanted Big Papi to crush one out of Petco, but José Fernández had other ideas. Rascal!

Let's hope the break gives the Texas Rangers the impetus needed to use that AL home field advantage in the World Series. #NeverGiveUp

Play resumes on Friday, and I will be ready.
