The second coming of Marion Jones
Posted Mar 24, 2010
Each day, the painful effects of Marion Jones' past give way to sweat and sore muscles. Earlier this month, the 34-year-old signed with the WNBA's Tulsa Shock, returning to a sport she has not played competitively since 1997, when she last played for the North Carolina Tar Heels. As a freshman, she helped the team win the 1994 NCAA title. Her signing was generally welcomed.
