    I'm a tall gal also: 6' tall with 3' long legs & size 14-16. When I was in my 20s, Lane Bryant was the only store that had a tall section (online only). Growing up, either my Mom or I made most of my clothes. I used to buy guys' jeans at the GAP. Later on, KMart sold Route 66 jeans for women, which came in Talls. I also had trouble finding shoes. I wear a 10-1/2 C in the front & A in the back. I always said that if I had unending amounts of money, the first thing I would do was have shoes made specifically for my foot. Don't even get me started on trying to find boots that fit- LOL.
    When I was in Jr HS, a random Woman came up to me & my Mother, & complimented me on the fact that I was sitting in a chair & standing up with my back stick-straight up instead of slouching. She said I was the first tall girl she had ever seen who didn't try to hide her height. I told her that I was proud to be 6' tall & that I came from a family with tall Women. My Mom's 2 Sisters were also 6' tall.
    I'm so glad that women's sports are getting more attention. Women are fierce competitors. Yes, they play for the love of the game; they also play To Win. We Women need to support our Sisters; we need to attend Women's games just like Men attend Male-dominated sports. Girl Power!

    I was there when Lisa Leslie did her REAL first dunk. It wasn't a regular game. It was in DC 2002, the WNBA All Star Game practice. I was a season ticket holder, so I was i bited to attend. She dunked and the whole place celebrated. It wasn't an official game, so I'm not sure if they got it on camera. But ir was so exciting!

    She would be in my starting five for sure. She was an amazing player. I can only imagine her with Cheryl Miller on the same team because those two could play with anybody and beat anyone! Diana Taurasi, Sheryl Swoops, Cynthia Cooper so many great players in the history of the WNBA that would be a wicked starting five. I realize Cheryl never played in the league because of injuries but she would still be in my starting five!

    I remember seeing Lisa Leslie at the Seattle Reign games in the first years of the WNBA. My daughters and I really admired her. My daughters played basketball at the boys and girls club and we only got to go to the games because a friend with season tickets would give me the tickets to the games he couldn’t go to. We sat under the basket and a player once landed in my daughter’s lap (she was in 5th or 6th grade at the time) but she was so excited she got to touch a player. Then after the game the players would come out and sign things for the fans. It was just such a great experience.
