I had never before watched a women’s basketball game, but wanted to see what all the hype about Caitlin Clark was about. She is really impressive.

I think back to the basketball I used to play in high school way back in the 1950’s, and there is no resemblance to the game today. We had two handed set shots from not that far out. No jump shot. Any girl’s team today would crush my boy’s high school team.

"...Any girl’s team today would crush my boy’s high school team..."

On military fitness reports, we used to call that "Damning with faint praise"!

What rules?

1950’s with real charging, palming the ball, traveling, etc.
