[QUOTE="Los24, post: 2738056, member: 7629"] I picked our post Bronx23 because I believe we tend to agree many times. A few simple points I like to share about this: - [B]Equal does not mean Sameness[/B] .... Women are 100% equal to men. They are very different however and it should be celebrated : - ) Because my wife is so different is what has made me a better ..(fill in almost anything.) Dunking is not the issue because even as more women can dunk it will not be in the same manner that men are doing it; i.e. doing it over 2 opposing players on an alley-opp. - [B]Distractions and too many options[/B] .... there are 500 channels and 100 different sports to chose from. I don't have cable nor the time to watch all my Yankee games, much less tune into tons of other sports. - I think one of the most important points is simply [B]the level of play[/B]. Does not matter boy or girl, woman or man. People want to watch the top level of play period. With limited time and increase of options its even more the case. Example, how many people watch DIII womens basketball vs DI? Same sport and same sex, its about the level of play. More people watch DI because the level of play is better. - If there is not enough interest to support a league (men or women) then it should not exist. We are not talking about necessities of life here. There are tons of talented people that are not able to display their abilities in front of millions of people in a league on TV. Just a few thoughts but glad there is enough interest to have WCBB and UConn so I can watch their games. [/QUOTE]
