The media (ESPN) started calling Parker that, as well as Courtney Paris in Oklahoma when ESPN is doing their games. I don't think Candace "ripped" anyone.

Agreed, Here is an excerpt from the following article:

ESPN - Parker: First-rate game and a first-rate life - Columnist

Her nickname of choice is "CP", but it ought to be, "Five More Shots." Beginning in eighth grade, when she fell in love with the game, that's what she used to say to her dad and mom when it was time to leave the gym. "I just want to shoot a little longer," she'd say. "Five more shots."
