Tonight's the Night, Comets Rebound

For some reason, I have the feeling that tonight is the night that the Houston Comets will break their losing (0-10) streak.

I read somewhere that Hilton (Koch) said we were going to win the next two games, that would be tonight against l.a. and Friday, against the 1-10 Mystics.

Maybe he's written some checks (I sure hope they clear), or maybe he's just feeling it like I am. And it's our time.

Dawn Staley Is A Houston Comet

I hated to see us give up a couple of "big" girls...

but it's pretty hard not to be extremely excited about Dawn Staley in a Comets' jersey!

Houston Comet's Retire Coop's Jersey

The Houston Comets, all referees, league conspiracies and predetermined outcomes aside, soundly defeated the Detroit Shock tonight by a score of 97 to 61.

Emotions ran high from start to finish
with the retirement of Cynthia Cooper's jersey at half time.

Coop is, arguably, the woman who has made the single most impressive impact
on the Houston Comets, and the WNBA, at large.

I think it's safe to say that there wasn't a dry in the house at Toyota Center tonight...
as Jersey 14 was unveiled, very approppriately and divinely,
next to number 10 (Kim, may you raise the roof of Heaven tonight!).
