The WNBA's "All-Sexy" Team?
According to MKRob at his Sports Blog, this team would be:
C: Lisa Leslie, Sparks
F: Candace Parker, Sparks
F: Swin Cash, Storm
G: Armintie Price, Sky
G: Deanna Nolan, Shock
Coach: Dawn Staley (ex-WNBA, now head coach at South Carolina)
I would replace Staley - who isn't even in the WNBA - with Jessie Kenlaw of the Washington Mystics. Now if we're going to open up the game to male coaches, well, that's a different ballgame. (I'll leave it up to you to figure out who the sexiest male coach is.)
Is such an article sexist? I don't think so. Baseball does this kind of stuff all the time. All-Handsome, All-Ugly, All-Ethnic, All-Tall, All-Blonde, All-Players With Long Names, etc. If the post stated that sexiness was the only value these players had, it would be sexist. However, I'd put these five players against any five in the WNBA in terms of talent.

This team was based on sexy and talent, that's why I picked them. Dawn Staley was in the WNBA and is a coach now so that's why she made it. Sexest...no. Sexy...Yes.
