Disrespect for women's basketball

I've been fighting this for 21 years - with UD in a downslide the uglier side of the women's game is evident but this made me happy today to read this paragraph from an article in the Washington Post... Somebody asked Virginia Tech Coach Kenny Brooks about that, and Brooks, long since in the running for coolest guy on Earth, went on a calm-voiced rant, if such a thing exists. “And I watch the women’s game get disrespected,” he told reporters, “by people who have no idea how much work these kids put in. And for it finally to be recognized for what it should be as a beautiful sport, kids who work their asses off, kids who have so much pride in what they do, and then you get jerks sometimes on social media trying to downplay the women’s game. Makes me angry. And I saw something the other day, and Carmelo Anthony was talking about the women’s game, and he talked about the women’s game as the purest in its form because they play it the right way. And when you’ve got one of the greatest of all time telling you that, it makes fools on Twitter look silly.”
