Why my 41-year love affair with the WNBL is over
INTEGRITY. There it is, in one word. It's the reason after loving, promoting and doing my best to enhance the cause of women's basketball and its premier WNBL for more than four decades, I'm out. Done. Dusted. Disenchanted. Disenfanchised. Distressed. Dissed in general.

COLLEAGUE Brad Rosen and I knew our interview guest this week would be excellent but he was even better than we anticipated. If you thought you knew JASON CADEE, you're about to learn a lot more about him on this week's Brad&Boti podcast. Jason is one of the NBL's most intriguing ballers.

NBL Round 9 is all in
HERE we go, here we go, here we go! At long last it's time for NBL Round 9! Let's face it, for a while there it looked as if Round 8 would never end. Someone at headquarters deserves an unsportsmanlike foul! Meantime, here we go with a big challenge for Brian Goorjian's Hawks at home again to Perth.
B&B: Just a coupla fogies talking NBL/WNBL
WE scoured the countryside this week in search of a guest for our weekly Brad&Boti podcast and came up shamelessly empty. It forced Brad Rosen and I to actually have a more in-depth look at the latest goings on in our WNBL and NBL comps and in the end, we quite enjoyed it! Hopefully, you do too!
