From the Houston Chronk:
Once a dynasty, now they're done.
The Houston Comets, an original member of the WNBA and winner of its first four championships, are being shut down by the league.
WNBA president Donna Orender said Monday that the team could no longer stay afloat.The Comets, who have been on a roller- coaster ride the last two seasons, will suspend operations early next week.
“This is disturbing news,” said Cynthia Cooper-Dyke, a two-time WNBA Most Valuable Player who, along with Sheryl Swoops and Tina Thompson, led the Comets to four league titles from 1997-2000. “This is a team that was an integral part of the WNBA. It is a team that helped establish the league, helped the league grow roots.''

Definitely a bummer.  I went to one of their victory parades through downtown Houston back when I lived down there.
