The Windies were like out for 3 at something like 50, before Hinds came
in (freaking before tea on the first day!). So Hinds cranks away with
his first partner, with like six 4s and a 6, and then Chandy comes in
to get them into the freaking 500s before breaking the partnership!

> Impressive.

Freaking understatement, that!

Even though its chyk bounceyball, this is correct.

Though chyk bounceyball and college baseball might be a tough call.

You'd probably be surprised at how many of the rest of us do, too.

I love playing baseball. I greatly enjoy watching baseball at the
stadium.

I find watching baseball on TV to be eternally boring.

I don't think it's biologically possible for us to breed.

I'll start watching girls basketball when it goes topless. how's
this, players must discard an article of clothing when they miss a
front-end free throw! Same thing when they commit a foul. Ratings would
go Crazy!!

I understand it perfectly. Basketball=constant action. Baseball=periods of
action surrounded by eons of non-action.

And I'm 6'3", 210lbs....guess which sport I am better suited for???

That said, baseball amongst men is infinitely more interesting than
basketball amongst girls.

My guess is that ESPN had a contractual obligation to broadcast the women's
Final Four on the main channel with the NCAA.

Good lord, man. How can you say such a thing? Have you no sense of...
of... well, what's good and right and holy? Girl's basketball is..
is... GIRLS PLAYING! RUNNING! JUMPING! The next thing you'll be
telling me is you'd rather watch men play baseball than girls playing
beach volleyball. Seriously, take a breath, get a little oxygen in
your lungs. I mean it now.

I seriously do not believe you understand my point. As for what I was
doing last weekend, I was on an endless book tour, feeling very much
like a volleyball.
