Brian , I would sooner watch paint dry or dig out an in-grown toe-nail , why such a boring game gets so much coverage I have no idea , in England its a game played by High-School girls , only its a bit more difficult (they have no backboard) its called netball .
And why publicly funded places of education should be used as a training ground for multi-million dollar sports franchises is beyond me , Youngsters should be in college for an academic education not to play sports and end up with a third rate degree in basket weaving. The argument that it is a way of providing an education (sports scholarship)to underpriviliged minority youth is a fallacy since the drop out rate for these kids is about 90% .
