“When you have the opportunity to play it for a living, that’s the No. 1 job. But when the opportunity came up to talk about basketball every day — which is something I do anyway — this is the second-best job ever.”

Candace Parker makes a point alongside Brendan Haywood during a studio show for the NCAA men’s basketball tournament. Six nights in a row from the Turner Sports studio in Atlanta, the Sparks’ star forwardAdvertisement

It began for Parker with play-in games Tuesday and Wednesday, ramped up to the full throttle of 12-hour stretches Thursday and Friday, then transitioned to the Saturday-Sunday demand of whittling things down to a Sweet 16. Through it all, Parker has shown an endearing endurance for someone who says she’s still trying to figure this thing out.

“I look at it as something that I’m growing into and loving a lot. I couldn’t ask to be in a better situation than they’ve given me at Turner.”

Probably because the only people watching it were bigots and racists who had been informed ahead of time by the terrorist of his plan. Find the users and charge them with failure to provide aid or failure to report a crime (if there are such laws in their country/state/city). blumom2015 Fukyew, Facebook users.
