Being a girl's basketball coach, this quote from the SG couldn't be truer,especially the missed shots resulting in a scramble for the ball followed by the alternating possession:
When women's college basketball gained exposure in the 1990s, the sport stood out for three things: coaches who walked awkwardly in high heels; an astonishing number of missed shots directly resulting in multiple players grabbing a rebound, followed by everyone excitedly glancing at the possession arrow; and, of course, the gratuitous sobbing. As soon as the outcome was decided in any game, everyone on both sides would wail like they were attending a funeral.

Christina, who happens to be there, posted an interesting comment about the riots in France:
the French aren't really starting revolutions because they aren't trying to change the way things are but rather they are striking so that things stay the same. Huh.
