Summary

We are covering all things WNBA Championships with the champion herself, Jackie Young. How do you celebrate a THIRD championship? What does it feel like to go on a shooting spree? And how did the Aces turn their season around to go on one of the longest winning streaks in WNBA history? Plus: find out which celebrity was sitting bench-side during her epic Game 2 of the finals. And because the season is over, it’s time for the most prestigious awards of the season: The Meggies! We are awarding everything from best dressed to the gayest moment of the season. Plus, major league baseball makes its ATM debut and we have a new Bicker – it’s Megan’s turn to object to how Sue behaves in the self-checkout aisle.
