Girls, girls, girls

[rainmaker]

This board is getting way too male these days, what with the football-good-guys-testosterone thread, and the baseball, and the NBA.

I had girls games tonight, and they were very girl-y. Thank goodness. First game, '3' teams (which means they're mostly freshmen and 8th graders). "Ball, ball, ball, ball, ball..." I haven't heard much of this lately, it's been more "Dead, dead, dead..." for some reason. Maybe the LA women do that, I don't know. The "ball, ball, ball" sounded almost cozy, and pleasant.

Then second game, we had the, "...uh, uh, uh.." routine that girls do when you call a foul on them. All 15 players were doing it all game.

Third game (varsity!), we had a Darcy, a Chelsea, a Kelsey, two Shelbys, a Katrina, a Christina and a Tina. Also, an apologizer. Goes up to block a shot, gets a little arm, "Sorry!" Reaches over to get a rebound and pushes in the process, "Excuse me!"

There ain't anything like a dame!
