Class.

 I had a great time Saturday at the WNBA All-Star game at Target Center in Minneapolis...

Maya Moore took home the WNBA All-Star Game MVP honors, for the third year in a row, as one of the highest scoring players on the winning team.  She and two others scored 18 points.

Allie Quigley broke an All-Star 3-Point contest record (NBA and WNBA) scoring 29 points in the money ball tie-breaker against Kayla McBride at halftime.

Minneapolis shined, the Lynx Nation represented, and Lynx Coach Cheryl Reeve -- amongst many others in the host organization -- rocked the house.  She literally travelled the stands, signing autographs and snapping pictures when cornered, trying to deliver a signed basketball to the proper person...

Here was her Twitter message, after the game:
