Got $10? Save a Life! Tomorrow (Tuesday) the Mystics will host the Indiana Fever at 7 PM at the Verizon Center. But that's not all they're doing . . . the Mystics are also teaming up with NothingButNets, a WNBA/NBA charity partner organization that buys and delivers insecticide-treated bed nets (the most cost-effective way to prevent malaria) to some of the poorest parts of the world.

Basketball games are not life or death (even if we sometimes act like they are). But Malaria Kills (in Africa, it's a leading killer of children), and a $10 net can literally save a life. Ruth Riley, who was here on Sunday with her Silver Stars, has seen this for herself. Watch the video and then decide if you've got an extra ten dollars to spare . . .



On a different note . . . SportsPageMike's Kecia Bailey interviewed former Terps Crystal Langhorne (Mystics) and Laura Harper (Monarchs) shortly before the two faced off last week in Sacramento and posted the Q and A today.

Amazing that Katie what's her face from the Wash Post never thought about doing a Harp-Lang interview. And newspapers wonder why they are going down...

Thanks for the reminder to bring ten bucks to the game. It's the least we can do.
