Feeling the Pain
The only thing worse than bad high school baseball is bad high school girls' basketball. In one game I covered, there were 40 turnovers in this game, and probabaly fewer people in the stands. Every ball bounce, every sneaker squeak and every pep talk inside a huddle (usually angry) could be heard in hi-fi clarity 25 rows up the other side of the bleachers. Painful, indeed.
Good girls' basketball can be awesome. (Update: here's another solid game I just covered.)
But sometimes I feel like I if I have to watch another keystone cops girls game... well, I might as well be covering county commission meetings. Or, even worse... county sewer board town hall meetings. At least then you get the crazy people.
That is all. (End rant.)
