Finally, someone is actually commenting on the total lack of respect the best pro team — the Lynx — get in the sports reporting of the Star Tribune and elsewhere (Magazine cover gives WNBA some overdue respect, MSR, June 2, 2016). Recently, the Lynx finally made it to the front page of the Star Tribune sports page (June 15, and 22, 2016). Yeah! Although they are better than the losing Twins, Vikings, and hockey.
I thank you. For years, you [staff writer Charles Hallman] and [now-deceased] Mr. [Kwame] McDonald have been the voice covering women’s sports, and consistently giving women’s sports a platform.
