From Jurassic Referee: "Wimmen are different. Really. I'm not kidding. Isn't the NCAA Wimmens for "holding the ball" only? And you can call it both in the front and backcourts? And their distance is 3 feet as opposed to 6'?"

From Dan ref: "Uh-oh, someone call security. The wimmens is gettin' restless..."

From Jurassic Referee: "I wonder how M&M did last night in his Friday Night Wimmens Bowling League."

From Mark T. DeNucci: "Yup, I'd love to see us actually jump 'em up in one of those JV wimmensgetting games where they have forty-eleven held balls."

I'm not sure what some Forum member hate worse; womens basketball, collegiate, or WNBA, NBA basketball, or basketball involving FIBA rules?

Add IAABO and your list is pretty much complete.

Billy,

This is a list. Not a commentary on the type of game and the quality of the game. This is not even a conversation about which side you want to work. It is just a list. And if you noticed not a single person has made light of this topic.

Peace

Boy, you got me pegged wrong. My Righteous brothers picture and comment was saying the ladies had 'no chance' back in the day when us high school lotharios popped on a Righteous brothers tune. I used 'da wimmen' in jest as it was the common reference in the thread. I'm a big fan of girls hoops, mostly on the high school level

Sorry. I didn't understand your reference. I'm also a fan of girls interscholastic basketball.

I don't think it's necessary that Forum members be "fans" of all types of basketball. I'm not. I just think that we, as officials, should be respectful of those that are fans of the WNBA, NBA, etc. Some consider officials to be guardians of the game.

Interesting, Felicia Grinter officiated 4 NCAA-M's games this year, including a conference tournament game while also making it to the Elite 8 on the Women's side, reffing the Rutgers/UConn game.

I had noticed her during the regular season b/c 2 of her Men's games were on ESPNU.

Did you see the attendance listed in the box score of that elite 8 game?
More people showed up for a HS game that I did this year. I'm shocked that the figure is so low.

Attendance: 4,623
