WNBA Star Busted Driving Under The Influence

The Mercury's Diana Taurasi was cited Thursday night in Phoenix, a few hours after her team's win over the Seattle Lone Professional Basketball Franchises.

Taurasi is both the leading vote-getter for the WNBA's July 25th All-Star Game and, as the Phoenix Business Journal points out, the newest addition to a growing list of current and former Phoenix ball players who have been busted recently for drunk driving (a list rounded out by ex-Sun and celebrated blowjob ranker Charles Barkley, and current Sun Jason Richardson).

What is it about living in the desert that makes people so thirsty?
