The 2007-2008 NBA season has been full of important and shocking trades. One of the most important trades this season happened when Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett were both traded to the Boston Celtics. There has been a lot of excitement surrounding the trades that were made this year in the NBA, but while this is going on, the WNBA has also made some equally exciting trades. The WNBA doesn't get nearly as much media attention as its male counterpart, but there are some blockbuster signings and trades going on there too. My favorite team, the Seattle Storm has just signed Sheryl Swoopes a.k.a the female Michael Jordan. One of the best players in the WNBA has left the team she has been on since the inception of the WNBA (12 years ago) and this has gotten less coverage than when she announced that she was a lesbian. (Unbelievable) Women's sports in general get very little press coverage. It really bothers me, because I would like to see both men and women athletes equally represented in the press and it just doesn't seem to be getting any better. What do you think?
