Thanks to Henry Abbott over at TrueHoop for posting this amazing fake Onion news story about a breast cancer foundation naming October “WNBA Awareness Month” in today’s bullets. So much greatness.
NEW YORK— Leading representatives of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation announced Wednesday that the month of October would officially be known as WNBA Awareness Month, and commemorated the occasion by donating $80 million of their funds to promote the early detection and ultimate eradication of the all-female basketball league.

“The main thing that people need to know is that even though the WNBA moves slowly and methodically, it will continue to spread if it’s ignored,” said Samantha Gallagher, president of the Northeastern Breast Cancer Coalition. “Before you know it, a full-blown professional women’s basketball team will have developed in Toronto, and at that point the odds of fighting it are slim to none.”
Gallagher added that statistics indicate the WNBA is the second leading killer of interest in professional sports in the United States behind Major League Soccer.
