The Minnesota Lynx completed a 3 game sweep of the Atlanta Dream to win the WNBA Title for the first time ever last night- the first pro team of any kind to bring a trophy home to the Medium White North since the Twinkies did it 20 years back.
I can honestly say that I've never seen a WNBA game- and I'd personally prefer a little more parity in the women's college game, but I think this is a genuine reason to smile for peeps up in the Medium White North after what has been a truly dismal year for the teams up there. The Vikings are 0-4. The Twins had a lot of promise, collapsed early and weren't able to put themselves back together again. The Timberwolves... well, enough said.
So Congrats to the Lynx! Hope this gets them a little more respect on the street up there- after all, they've won a title. The Vikings have yet to do that.
