Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Wednesday, October 20, 2004

The USA Today reports that Val Ackerman is stepping down as commissioner.

"I want to spend more time with my daughters," Ackerman said. "I've been with this for really the past decade. It's been a privilege to be part of things, but it's been grueling."

Still no official press release at WNBA.com. Nice scoop by Oscar Dixon.

(UPDATE: AP reports suggest the story was actually broken by the Sports Business Daily.)

Boarders have named Barry as the new commish. Someone, he hasn't yet placed us in his new administration. Must be some sort of mistake.
