Moron Alert:

Today only two of UConn's All American Trio were named finalists for the 2008-09 John R. Wooden Award today that decides the John R. Wooden All American Team and National Player of the Year. UConn's Tina Charles was left OFF the list of 19 candidates which included her teammates Renee Montgomery and Maya Moore. Created in 1976, the John R. Wooden Award is the most prestigious individual honor in college (men's) basketball (for the women its the Wade Trophy). It is bestowed upon the nation's best player at an institution of higher education who has proven to his or her university that he or she is making progress toward graduation and maintaining a cumulative 2.0 GPA. The 2009 Award ceremony, which will include the presentation of the Men's and Women's Wooden Award winners will be hosted by the Los Angeles Athletic Club on Friday, April 10th.

P.S.--If Tina isn't one of the Top 19 female college basketball players in the country then the NBA's All Everything LeBron James (aka King James) must not really be an MVP candidate this year...that's how stupid this omission is...get with it voters and stop looking just at Statistics!!!
