Spring is upon us and that means Ellie, our New York Liberty Mascot, is blessing us with another season of attitude. The Liberty has three queer starters we can root for, but we mostly watch to worship the ground of the Timeless Torches, the delightful dance crew for people over 40. Can you tell I highly recommend going to a game this season?
