UConn's Women Win 69th Straight....

The UConn Huskies Women's basketball team brought their record to (30-0) last night with a win over Notre Dame. (the number after the dash is for how many people care)

Kudos to the Huskies Women's basketball team on going undefeated in the always powerful Big East. But, until women start playing against the men, I still will not watch women's basketball.

If every male athlete came down with a serious case of worms, there were no male sports for a month, and ESPN aired middle school chess tournaments and ESPN2 showed the undefeated UConn Huskies Women's basketball team vs. the undefeated Tennessee Volunteers, I would rather watch a sixth grader think for 12 minutes to move his pawn one spot forward than watch basketball in slow motion. (women's basketball)

It's nothing against women or them being less athletic than men, inferior, or any other male chauvinism. It's because women's basketball is not interesting. It's slower, they shoot at a lower percentage, and they can't dunk (minus a handful of players).

I don't give my girlfriend (a lot of) crap for not wanting to watch baseball, football, or men's basketball with me. I don't call her sexist or feminist for it. She just doesn't find it interesting. But, I don't see her turning on the T.V. to watch the Connecticut women play basketball.

I may be a lone wolf here. You all may actually care. But, I don't want ESPN wasting even a headline on their main page for a women's basketball game, unless someone bitch-slapped someone.

Put the NFL on the Bench

Take a deep sigh, everyone, because football is over for the time being. All we have left to hold onto are the annual story lines of "Favre-Watch," "Who will be stupid enough to sign T.O. this year," and "Which quarterback will get a ridiculously overpriced contract in the 2010 NFL Draft."

But, don't fret my friends. Because, if we're lucky;

• The Redskins might sign an overrated free agent to a historically high contract

• Kurt Warner will finally retire and we'll get to officially watch Matt Leinart fail on center stage

• Favre will fake an injury to excuse his final interception of the season and future return to the Vikings after training camp

• We'll get to watch everlasting coverage of college grads running routes and blocking dummies and Mel Kiper's 20th mock draft of the week. Why don't we let football go? Just for a couple months. It won't hurt that bad.

Yes, you may cry yourself to sleep every night, but it's better than watching 24 hours of ESPN analysts analyzing each other's analyzations of the back-up left guard from West-Central Louisiana Tech University.

The Washington Capitals lost their first game in 14 contests. Syracuse has been dominating the basketball world since being shunned from the NCAA Tournament 2 out of the last 3 years. North Carolina Basketball is in turmoil. The Olympic National basketball team roster has been announced. These are all more intriguing things to think about than Mel Kiper's projected 5th round selection by the Cincinnati Bengals in the NFL Draft.

Come on, coach, take NFL out of the game and put him on the bench for a while.
