The Pinky Q&A

So as many of you know I am a serious fan of the WNBA and have been since the inception of the league. Well on occasions I get to chat with some ladies from the league whom I consider pretty awesome lades.

Seeing that I am in Chi City AKA Chicago I get the privilege of having a WNBA near me. Beyond that I get to connect with some of the Chicago Sky players. There are 2 individuals that I am a real fan of and that is Tamera Young and Epiphanny Prince. Some of you know them as Pinky and The Brain. I support them 100% and I love having them in Chicago AT THE SAME **** TIME. Take that how you will, I know how I meant it. If you are a fan of these ladies like me then I'm sure you would love this T-Shirt site http://403653.spreadshirt.com/ check it out. Anyway.

How cool is it that I got the chance to do a Q&A session with them? SUPER COOL. I know my sentiments exactly.

Tamera aka Pinky is up first and let me tell you, I love her Swagger. She is cool as the other side of the pillow and very humble as well. *waiting for me check in the mail* LOL

I tried to combine some basketball related and nonbasketball related questions but these ladies are certainly more than just ball players.

Q: What is your favorite food and favorite drink? 
A: Pasta and  Apple Juice or Strawberry Lemonade

A: Retro 11. They are always limited and the patent leather on them makes them official.

 describe the second half?
A: First Half = Confidant and Comfortable/ Second Half = Unsure/Hesitant
Q:  Where did Pinky and the Brain come from? And what has that relationship
 meant to you?
A: Pinky and The Brain came from Piph saying that is us because she's short with a big head and I am tall with big ears... The relationship is a good friendship bond between me and Piph..
Q: If not playing basketball what would Tamera be doing?
A: Coaching
Q: If you had to pick, 1 month wearing the same color or 1 month
without shopping which one would you choose and why?
A: Wearing that same color and I would wear Black because I like to change my shoes and I can wear different shoes with black clothing and make it pop still....(spoken like a shopaholic)
Q: Who is your favorite person to guard?
A:  I love to defend DT because she makes a shot even with my hand in her face. I love defending Cappie the most though.
*bonus information* Tamera states: I wish I could play the whole game and guard the leading scorers and see what I can hold them to because it seems like they score the most when I am on the bench.
