WNBA TAKES ON THE NBA FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

THE WNBA GOES HEAD TO HEAD WITH THE NBA FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY

What do you get when the greatest WNBA team goes up against the NBA?

The sports story of the century!

The Chicago Voyagers, NBA champions and The Boston Blue, WNBA champions are the dream teams in this acclaimed sports story.

The author, Jessie Jamie Coleman, does an excellent job at challenging the notion that men are better at sports than women by pitting the NBA against the WNBA. That premise alone would have been enough to keep readers turning pages, but the author does not stop there. She has taken a fascinating topic that may have been resisted by other writers, namely male writers, and turned it into something awesome and real.

The drama begins with Jay Byrd, star player of the Chicago Voyagers, appearing on the Oprah Winfrey show days after the championship game. At this point, we don’t know who won this game that went down in history. Jay then takes us back to the beginning.

Jay Byrd is charismatic, witty and every bit as good at his game as one might assume. He makes a promise to his dying mother not to break the heart of his first-love. With every intention of honoring that promise, Jay finds himself drawn to WNBA champion, Jessie Winters, star player of the Boston Blue.

Jessie Winters is talented, beautiful and adamant about always doing what’s right. And the chemistry between the two is perfect and offers excellent contrast.

When they meet for the first time, sparks sizzle immediately. Jessie does, however, find Jay a little cocky for her type, but she doesn’t dismiss him totally. To make things more complicated for Jessie, Jay vacillates between his first-love and the woman he always wanted to love, Jessie Winters.

One of the best scenes in the story takes place early on when a thug attempts to carjack Jay and his fellow player, Les Locke. The scene accomplishes much in that it shows the depth of their friendship, demonstrates that they can kick butt on and off the court and is a key setup scene of what is to happen later.

Throughout the course of the story, Jay goes through drastic changes. He struggles to keep the promise he made to his mother, even though in all likelihood he knows he won’t, and Jessie doesn’t believe she’s good enough to beat Jay’s team but does a good job at hiding it.

Though this script takes to the court with all the fervor, spark, and talent a crowd loves to see in a championship game, the meat of the story is the buildup to this big game. And be forewarned, the ending is not what you might expect, but nevertheless, you will be fascinated and satisfied.

The writer has crafted a screenplay that is attuned to the ways we can be weak without being bad people. It offers a pleasant double whammy of basketball and character.

“The Boston Blue” delivers all the anticipated payoffs at all the right moments, and has all the emotional range of a championship game, right up to the down-to-the-buzzer series of thrills.

Full-coverage details of this acclaimed sports drama, “The Boston Blue” (0976696479/$12.95) will hit the bookstore shelves of Barnes & Noble Stores on December 14, 2006 or preorder at Amazon.com.
