    Ya know, Pokey's teams weren't boring and they were certainly watchable: solid basketball play.

    There is absolutely no parity right now. However, when you get to second round/Sweet 16 teams playing each other? Those are some good ball games, Shane. There are teams I enjoy watching: Kim Mulkey's Baylor squads always play good ball.

    Golf, both PGA and LPGA, is the only professional sport I watch.
    ITT (re: women's bball) you'll notice I've only mentioned collegiate. By purity, ball movement, defense, etc. Even with fast breaking offenses in today's game you can find both.

    @shane0911 I'm sitting here contemplating driving out to watch a round today. It's only supposed to be "close to 100° today." I play here, all the time. And let me tell you, it was freakin' HOT yesterday. I spent most of the day outside building on a work shop / man cave at a friends house. Let me tell ya, brother. We ain't got AC in that sum bitch yet. I say that to say this ...

    I know I'd be wiped out if I head out to CCC. The softball game starts at 930, right? So, I'm thinking about playing OU and start considering ...

    #1 team winning pecentage.
    #1 team ERA.
    #1 team HR per game.
    #1 team batting average.
    # of shutouts pitched, their defensive efficiency...slugging percentage, on base % ...

    I'm thinking they lead in every one of those categories and probably a few more.

    It's one of the best teams I've seen ... sad you're scoffing at it, really.
