And part of it is because girl's do not play the sport as young as boys and finding someone that can dribble is a struggle. And part of that is because people automatically ingrain boys to play sports and girls pick it up much later as a general rule.

I don't think he was complaining that you don't work the games. I think he was complaining that you chose to denigrate all girls' basketball games as "sucking."

I had a girls varsity game last nite that ended up 44-6. It could have been 94-6 if the winning team decided to keep pressing and play the passing lanes in the second half. Sometimes you get games like this.

Well when those games stop sucking, I will say those games do not suck.

Eh, it's his opinion. I'd rather see him say that than pretend otherwise.

I've always wonder why girls/women in general were not better FG% shooter or more importantly better ft% shooters... Their ball is smaller therefore should have more room for error going into the same diameter hoop.

Well, for starters. you're wondering about a something that's not true:

"But there is one aspect of basketball where women seem to have an edge over men. Free-throw shooting. That's right, women are slightly better than men when it comes to shooting from 15 feet from the basket.

Sharp shooters: As the men's game focuses on dunking, women are shooting free throws better | Deseret News
