At the ..."Summitt"

As you all know......being readers of this blog.....we have trashed women's basketball from time to time.

Women do play a  good fundamental  game.....But .....athletically....women's basketball is so inferior to the game us men are used to playing.....and watching.

We have always said.......a good five high school boys team.....would beat a WNBA team like a drum.

Nothing mean spirited here.....just the facts.....genetics.....

Men are stronger....jump higher....have better reflects......no shame...

Women can give birth to babies......We can't........and we applaud them.

But basketball?

Come on......

But......we do owe a bit of gratitude to a coach.   A coach....we feel...could .....if given the chance.......be a champion on the basketball court of not just women......but men as well.

That woman?

Pat Summitt.....

Ms.  Summitt......could have coached any team......anywhere......any genre.....and succeeded.

As Ms. Summitt......strolls off into the sunset.....we applaud her.....and what she has accomplished.

We ......wish you well.......
