Happy Heaven Birthday Penny Ann Early 🎂
The name may not ring a bell, but she is the ONLY woman to have played in the ABA, and indeed in ANY professional men's basketball league.

I know Louisville isn’t one of the cities mentioned here. But!!! I think MLB or NBA would work here.
Similar to what happened in OKC, Louisville would really rally around a franchise.
I don’t know if we will ever get a chance to prove it. But I do think it would work.
In a recent @Forbes breakdown, Nashville remains part of the national conversation about Major League Baseball expansion.
For Nashville, the case is clear: a growing metro, a younger fan base, a brand rooted in Negro Leagues history, and a vision built for Music City.
The work continues.
MLB to Music City.

If the NBA can change the courts for the in-season tournament, which I like, why not change the ball for a few games a year when the four #ABA teams play?
10 Nov 2017
When the four remaining #ABA teams play each other they should use a red, white and blue ball in the regular season to honor the league. #nba @nuggets @Pacers @spurs @BrooklynNets @NBATV

The Fire’s new $750M soccer-specific stadium on Chicago’s riverfront will be known as McDonald’s Park, as the fast-food giant has agreed to its first-ever naming rights deal in the U.S. for a major professional sports stadium.
