Some of you single minded folk have failed to realize that not only was she an awesome basketball player but she along with a few other women made professional basketball history in the mid 90s. Then to be enshrined into the HOF is epic! Congrats Sheryl Swoopes ☺
you all prolly dont care but does anybody know a way to get back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me
@Jamison Benjamin Instablaster =)
@Juan Jedidiah I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Juan Jedidiah it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you really help me out !
@Jamison Benjamin Glad I could help :)
A very great athlete, and I salute you. You are an inspiration to me and my children. I love you. Thank you for being you.
I saw her play in College two years in a Row for Texas Tech in Reunion Arena in Dallas, she was so fast, there was something special about her,so fast and natural.
Her and Cynthia Cooper and Thompson were some of the best I've seen on one team
Yes, the true legends of the WNBA!!
@@geminiascension1390 YES INDEED🖖🏼👏🏿🌞🌟🌻🕊💖...
FACTS!!!
Legendary
Swoops is like fine wine.
Cooper was JORDAN to Swoopes Pippen .... hell of a team .... Miss those Comets days
And Tina Thompson was The Rodman of the team.
Yesssssssss to the both of you for your comments. The three of them were a beast. Lord knows I watched them on my youth and feel in love. Tina and that red lipstick...lmao Yesss
Rodrigo Santos Please stop comparing these great female athletes to men. They have achieved greatness in their own right. They’ve accomplished so much and are an inspiration to young girls everywhere. Side note: Pippen don’t have nothing on Swoopes and Rodman can only dream to be as good as Tina Thompson. Lol
@@22calson Exactly
Stop please. Swoopes was that woman. A very top level scorer and defender
Sherrly swoop she was good in high school and made history and went to Texas tech College and one of best players on the team can shot three and pad
🐐🐐🐐🦌💪🏽💯 Cooper definitely dominated initially; but don’t forget Swoopes was coming back from having her son, Jordan. And she deserve G.O.A.T accolades for all of the firsts accomplishments she made, straight up! She had the highest points in a single game, in which Texas Tech won the NCAA Championship game. She’s number two of all time for point in both men and women’s category for ppg (35.3ppg) in the 1993 NCAA Tournament. I can go on, but there was none before her, and none after her who has accomplished as many accolades as she has. She’s the GOAT; period!
She's beautiful!
It's hard listening to her talk about the Comets knowing we don't exist anymore.
I loved watching the Houston Comets play, even though they won three of their four championships against my beloved New York Liberty. 😣
yeah i still can't believe the first beast WNBA team folded.
Yo that Houston Squad was a Dynasty!!! Those games were cracking like NBA finals games.
Swoops, Coop, Tina Thompson (dem lips mmmm smh), and The Great Kim Perrot (RIP)
they were the best and they would run circles around the Minnesota Lynx
I know that's one team I wish they didn't disband and the Detriot shock too he was the coach there I believe too (Van)
Just imagine if the Comets existed right now. Texas would not only have an NBA Bermuda Triangle, but a WNBA Bermuda Triangle, too!
it makes me so mad at the comments on here. you wouldn't and haven't said these horrible things to the men. why do you have the right to say these ugly things. grow up and stop trolling. do what your momma taught you, if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all!!!
Well deserved...#22 has been doing that it since I was a kid. Geez 20 yrs ago I was only 11 and I have been a fan of the game since.
Tina Thompson should be in next year's hof congrats to Sheryl Swoopes i had a crush on her back in the 90s
I always luv her play!! Beautiful
It's got to be said she looks dam good. That dress should be illegal im trying to watch and listen but her chest man look I'm sorry I kept thinking dam girl!!

It's definitely well deserved!!! Sheryl Swoopes is the GOAT of Women's Basketball!!!❤❤💙💙 Sheryl Swoopes speaks so well!!! Love it!!!

Still foine❤❤
Crazy this video has 350 views and ai HOF speech has a million
AI's video was uploaded 2 days before. Oh, and he's AI...
Savage but true ;)
+HoftimusPrime true
wat a tool..this was uploaded today
son!...i just got done commenting on ai having almost 2 mill hits in 2days. more than shaqs. I looked down and saw her on the thumbnail and saw "299" views. I thought it was for 299k. wow. shes a legend though. people just don't follow wnba enough to care.
All the smoke brought me here
It's about time!
Greatest women's player of all time...
well.. probably 2nd to Cheryl Miller.. but it's up for debate
Streetsmart1984 Cough Cynthia Cooper cough
Up next.............. Tina Thompson, Tamika Catchings, and Swin Cash! Maybe Lauren Jackson, too!
Love the shot of Draymond Green paying no attention at all...the issue with the WNBA in a nutshell...the NBA needs to be more of a participant in making it a better product...I use to watch all the time, but the game has not progressed as much even with more really good players.
I hope they put things in place to speed the game up, innovate, tell better story lines to get fans more into rivalries, and have their player understand that missed layups equal fans feeling like the quality is lesser especially when there is little by way of power and dunking to distract from the monotony of the game.
olympics atlanta 96, swoopes was the woman who made me fell in love with woman's basketball, besides my native and also hall of famer hortencia
😱😱😱
8:57 - Damn, Draymond--pay attention, man! Woman's humbly giving her HoF speech, and you looking zoned out.
Though, does seem like dude's always checking his nails while people are speaking on-stage. lol
It's about time. I watched The Houston Comets slot. I was upset when the Dynasty stopped being a part of the WNBA . I would have liked to see her play in person, I just look at the VHS TAPES I have a new relive the magic over and over again.
She finally got that thickness i've been waiting for since I was in JR high...
one of the best hof classes ever
Congrats!
God bless. This was beautiful
Black don't crack! Swoopes forever!!
congrats
She was a great basketball 🏀 player!
Fantasia, I mean Sheryl Swoopes, looks absolutely great!
❤️❤️
Sheryl Swoobes delivers!!! I'm surprised she is only worth 200k.
My favorite female hooper
My favorite female player of alltime.
she didn't have those playing for Houston. lol
great good to see draymond bussing balls green in the crowd
Hey, when did Fantasia start playing basketball?
first of all one of the prttiest women on this planet (me white, european... if that matters... not to me... but anyway...!) besides that.... basketball wise.... and thats coming from a 6'7 power forward in college... sheryl.... what a damn good job... honestly!!!!! more than well deserved...!!! and yes i watched ever basketball game men or women, because when you try to improve your game... some girls can teach you more than some guys...! good bless sheryl
⛹🏿♀️🐐
Swoopes can get it!
🍾
I came here because of the thumbnail
Passed the ball and good move on the court woman player she could do al then the wnba Houston comic and played awesome ball and mvp championships and doing well and coaching now
She was fine back then
here before 500 views
nigga u ugly as shit
+Melvin Crews shut yo ugly ass up I'm jaquess lil brother
I would pay real money for her worn shoes.
Damn she turn old af, I remember her from the Comets days she was the Pippen to Cooper(GOAT woman bball player)
Why do young people say the dumbest comments on TH-cam?
Time rolls by. What do you expect, Benjamin Button?
Though, if you ask me, she still look good.
I had a big crush on her before she left her husband and came out gay. I wonder how her husband at the time felt bout it?
Well she got a new husband now so maybe it's water under the bridge.
TISSUES FOR EVERYONE!!!!!
Did you take one?
I didn’t know Viola Davis played basketball too! Damn she talented!
Danm she fine.
You suppose to bring a fancy handkerchief to a formal event not a tissue. Sheryl Swooped needs to take etiquette classes.
Now she spends her time ruining peoples' careers over harmless, social media posts smh.
I'm surprised the speech was only under 13 minutes long. Shaq did 30 and the rest were above 13 minutes...don't ya'll like to talk, ladies? hahah
even though she got fired from the college with the harassment allegations
Allegations are just that--alleged.
Besides, she probably just went hard on their soft asses, and their millennial asses couldn't take the old-school toughness.
+SuperGamer87 Naw not so the school found she was doing bad things to the players... that's why she got fired.. no coach has the right to be brutal.. with threats of snatching scholarships just for the hell of it plus many players was leaving the program year after year.
Favorite woman player of all time. I tried to immolate her to a T growing up.
A real hypocrit seeing that her words and especially ber last words doesnt apply to carlin
Clark and others she ruined whjle at loyola.
A class act, and roughly 100x more articulate than Iverson.
u tripping
stop hating. AI speaks from his heart! He also doesn't forget those who paved the way as well as those who helped him. He does it his way!
I never suggested anything to contradict your claims. But every single inductee could read off a long list of names, punctuated by the occasional "I love you, man", or "You were there for me".
Luckily, Swoops (and others) are able to speak more eloquently about their experiences, revealing more nuances.
Everyone doesn't have speak as eloquently as you may want them to. Listen to their message not how they pronounce their words. AI never was one to do what people wanted him to. There is no need to comment on him for Sheryl's speech. I actually liked his better to be honest. His was more heartfelt and real. HE can speak all slang if he wants I bet most in that auditorium would still know what he's saying. Stop expecting people to be how you may want. you criticize him for speaking a certain way not realizing how he grew up,
Stop making excuses for AI. Sheryl Swoopes grew up poor in a small town in Texas, and developed her communication skills to a relatively high level.
all that hanging out was unnecessary.. !! #justsaying
Never lol
The dress itself isn't so bad. It's elegant, but her busty figure just emphasizes the gown's décolletage (neckline) more than usual.
Not that I'm complaining, mind you...
cos they do, don't they? #Perv
Sound like you have some experience and qualifying clothing, you work for the E-channel?
Why Sheryl swoops look like Fantasia
true
she's got more curves
+hurricane that dress is hiding how much ass she got
@Eric Pak • Why Fantasia look like Sheryl Swoops. Sheryl is older and look hella good,and a legend by the way.
There is always some random girl that didnt play in the nba inducted,
Random? She's definitely a legend
@Os - Check out her basketball reel.
no girl played in the NBA
what?
Mikel Moon Yeah, if i wanted to see a joke i would go watch Hillary Clintons campaign. But seriously, there should be a NBA hall of fame, all these women did nothing for the NBA.
It was a think that Swoopes was a lesbian...there was press on her partner and all...I guess like on the court she play on both ends...
And the world is better for it.
LOL! WNBA.... Who cares?!
Little Girls who play basketball cares. I hope WNBA gets better, because it's a lot of mothers, sisters and daughters that ball.
I go to basketball gym everyday ball with the fellas, but I see young teenage girls compete and go harder than most guys on the court. Some of these girls are going to play for Michigan and Ohio State.
Man I rather my daughters ball and get money be in a Basketball Hall of Fame than the Stripper Hall of Fame
I care Kobe cared 😋😋😋
DAM!! WHOOPES IS OLD!!!
she left her husband for a woman
wtf
she's back to men now
we know she hops back and forth over the fence. She probably didn't want her son to see that shit ip close and hoped back.
Who tf is she. lmao
A legend
+Adriano Vince Po Guess well she's a woman so.......
We used to call her the female Jordan
