I dont know anything about this player but saw her when she got drafted and thought she was the most beautiful woman ever. So now i'll be following her career to see how she does when she finally gets to play amongst the other wnba bigs.
Indeed, it is a noble endeavour to give back a voice to those who can no longer defend themselves. Even when rehabilitation comes a long time after, it is still rehabilitation, and therefore right to pursue. Brethren or not, if they were of good renown, it should be said.
Celeste mentioned, "...quickening up my footwork..." as one of the things Phoenix was helping her improve in her game. In my mind, this was Celeste's biggest weakness in her minutes playing with the Fever. If I were choosing a reason to cut Celeste at the Fever, it would have been because her footwork on defense had been slower than needed. Here footwork didn't meet the hype touted about her defensive skills. Lots of people online have commented that cutting a "good / great" college defensive player like Celeste from the Fever was a bad decision. I think if she'd had been exhibiting better footwork at the Fever, maybe those viewpoints would hold more merit. I think that it is great to hear Celeste mention footwork as one of the things WNBA teams are helping her with. If she can move with or in front of her opponents in the WNBA instead of trailing them as much as she did early on, she'll have a real shot to stick in the WNBA. (I watched this 10 days after it was posted. Taylor is now with the Connecticut Sun. I hope she improves enough with her feet, before decision time, to be kept by the Sun.)
So cool... thank you for giving us update on Liz & recovery. Its nice to know she's in good spirit. Keep it up Liz we're here waiting for your comeback. 😊💪🏀
I have read somewhere that a female passenger witnessed other men jumping into the lifeboats with their wives because they didn't have the guts to go down with the ship. Now, if this is true, then why is Ismay being singled out? I have also read somewhere that he was actually ordered into the lifeboat by 1 of the officers. So, whose right and whose wrong? Share your thoughts......
Very personable, thanks. Interesting double major, civil engineering and art. Skyscrapers is structural engineer or architecture. Roam and follow your bliss. Love your game.
We really wish we had rotated her and others in more during the finals. We needed to give the big 3 a break. McCabe is quite capable of putting up points, very very good shooter.
I used to believe Bruce Ismay was how it was shown the movies. Especially when every movie and documentary shown Ismay as a villain and coward. I'm glad Bruce Ismay's story is being told the way it should have been told from the beginning. He didn't deserve the treatment he got and definitely didn't deserve to be called a coward either. He wasn't a villain on the Titanic. I believe he was more of a hero having helped save lives that night. I definitely see him in a different light now having heard more of his real story. Poor guy.
Thanks for the comment. We air episodes once a week and broadcast them in the order that they are conducted. That would be why it took a while to broadcast!
Fun interview. Thank you. No more hiding Taylor McCabe. Hopefully, she can develop her strength and team's chemistry. She's already one of the best shooters.
Great interview guys and nice that you had Kayla Padilla on your show! Awesome person and player that, in my opinion, is one or if not the dark horse for the Lady Trojans to advance further in the NCAA women's tounament😊
You’d be incorrect. All witness accounts have him feverishly helping women and children onboard life boats, there’s also a maid who he saw and grabbed her to put her on the boat. When she tried resisting to say no she’s only a servant he told her it didn’t matter, she’s still a woman. The woman’s husband wrote a letter which we discuss here afterwards thanking Ismay
I think he realised that he is the only person to speak after this and the only one from white star ,the captain went down Andrews also ,what he didn't know was the reaction in those times ...I think he was deeply effected to his last day.may he rest in peace
Ismay didn’t deserve to be called a coward. He helped a decent number of women and children into lifeboats before being the last person to board his lifeboat. I definitely believe it was actually a good thing Ismay survived the sinking too. He was the one who spoke with Carpathia Captain Rostron about turning down the RMS Olympic’s offer to carry the survivors for them since a ship looking near-identical to the Titanic would most likely give the survivors greater anxiety. He also led to the start of the White Star Line/Cunard Line rivalry turning around and even offered to reimburse the Cunard Line for having their Carpathia give up her voyage and weaken her parts to rescue as many people as possible from the Titanic disaster and then return to New York City with them, even though Cunard rejected it.
