3 Words – Leigh Anne Gullet (SS_PR)

I was recently talking to Leigh Anne Gullet (SSPR) and we were talking about her blogs that she writes for the SASS official blog and her recent series of “3 word” blogs that she has done and I told her that I was going to write a 3 word blog about her! We laughed and she was like “Oh goodness! I’m scared.”  ….. I’m not quite sure if she was scared because I am a wise-ass or if she was like ‘oh no what is this chick going to pick as my 3 words’….. BWAH HA HA!!!! (That is my great evil laugh just for you Leigh Anne haha)

It’s not too often that fans can say that their front office is as open to dealing with fans as SASS is. And I think that is one of the reasons that SASS is so envied by other fans. There are other message boards that have members that have openly commented about how cool it is that the SASS front office and PR are as open to talking to fans and generally interested in their thoughts and opinions. And to me, that boils down to Leigh Anne. She has made herself accessible to us and is only a mouse click away and is overall friendly and very informative to fans in general. She also makes sure that we are informed as to events that SASS will be having and all that

 

I cannot even imagine some of the emails and questions she gets from fans and how it probably gets so redundant, but she handles it and always makes you feel like it was the best question in the world to ask. : )
So for me personally, I would say my three words would be:
1. Kind
2. Funny as hell (ok so thats not 1 word)
3. Patient

 

Kind because she will always give a lending hand when she can. Since becoming one of the co-owners of Silver Stars Nation I have had to ask her things a lot. When I took over Becky’s site those questions doubled ha ha! She extended her offer to help me with things I may need and believe me, I have definitely took that hand several times!

 

Funny as hell…. well LA (yes thats what I call her lol) is funny! And not to mention she is a good sport. We tease her all the time and she comes right back at us. Not to mention her blogs in general always make me laugh, she always adds a great twist to the stories she is telling that makes you crack a little grin while you are reading it.

 

Patient… trust me… she is patient lol! I have had to go to her with a few things before and she has always come through for me and I totally appreciate it. And honestly…. she is dealing with WNBA fans, and like it or not guys, we can be like a dog on a bone when it comes to wanting things lol!! And I think that her being accessible to us is awesome to say the least, but I am also sure there are times she would like to strangle us lol! However, after doing a head count all of us are still here so that shows how patient she is : )
When the thought of doing this blog ran through my head I thought I was going to do it with my 3 words about Leigh Anne, but I managed to branch out so to say and got a couple players to give me their three words on Leigh Anne as well : )

 

Erin Buescher

3 words:

1. Energetic
2. Inspirational
3. Laughing!

 

 

 

Edwige Lawson-Wade

Here is how I would describe Leigh in 3 words:

kind: Leigh was so nice with when we first met. I thought that was awesome especially since I didn’t know anybody.

funny: Because she always makes jokes and always try to speak french to me and her french is funny ;-)

generous: She offered right away to pick me up from the airport and she takes care of my family at every home game.

 

 

Chantelle Anderson

intellectual – most people wouldn’t think this right away because Le can be extremely absent minded sometimes. but once you get to know her you find out that she’s really quite brilliant. lol.

compassionate – Le is compassionate to a fault. since i’ve known her i’ve been trying to get her to care less about people in general. haha. but i love that she’s cares very deeply for those that are close to her and will do anything to help them out.

smart ass – Le comes across as this very sweet, nice person, which she is. but she has a devious side to her that has been known to make smart ass comments at the drop of a hat. lol.

 

 

 

Becky Hammon

3 Words to describe Le..

Kind
Loyal
Thoughtful
Creative
And one heck of a Wheel of Fortune player!! ..But not soo good at dog training.. ;-)

 

 
……… Ok…. so Becky couldn’t decide on 3 words, but you get where she is coming from. I think that the overall consensus is that Leigh Anne is an awesome person and she does a great job at dealing with us and taking care of all of our Silver Stars.

So LA (Leigh Anne) thank you very much! I don’t think we tell you how much we appreciate you, but we do :)
