Storm Open Practice

Sue Bird and Lauren Jackson (small)
I’ve only slept 3 hours, but no way in heck was i missing todays storm event. Today was a open practice for Season Ticket Holders. Watching the practice was a lot funner than i thought it would. They played a “game” against a group of guys, that got some cheers from the crowd. (they stopped the game in overtime, but we wouldve won). Then there was a short Q&A chat session, and THEN we got to “meet the team”. Pretty cool affair…..

I didnt utter a peep to the players though. Instead I relished in the fact that i could finally take the players pictures while they were standing still :)
i took a buttload of pictures….. I was mostly just seeing how well the zoom on my camera worked, and at what point would “noise” become an issue. My camera defintally likes to add alot of noise to my shots, so thankfully i dont do any printing.
This picture of LJ was taken from across the arena. The details of her face are washed out…. but i’m still impressed.

today is LJ’s birthday, and i took alot of pics with the small cupcake for her. None of the players wanted to eat it. They had looks on thier faces of both temptation, and horror as they passed it around…..lol i didnt get everyones reaction, but might end up posting the ones that i did.

    Yeah!! Sue Bird, UConn alumni from my state! And, ummm… that’s about all I know about baseball. I mean basketball.
