Entertaining stuff. :rolleyes:

I put money, though, on Stanford to beat Baylor.

Haven't watched any women's games all year until tonight. But I took Stanford because I liked the way these two girls Chiney and Nnemkadi Ogwumike talked. Well spoken girls. I think I picked up on a vibe just from that, that they would have the intelligence needed to beat Griner and Baylor. We'll see if that holds true.

You bet real money on a women's basketball game? You might have a problem...

Not disputing that haha

I was up $50 for the weekend so figured I'd take a shot. Straight up $14 would've won $38.

That girl is pretty good, Nneka Ogwumike.

Not enough around her in this game.

Smart. Athletic. Speaks good. Decent looking by women's basketball standards.

Baylor about to go 40-0.

Their top 6 players return.

They bring in 4 top 50 recruits.

Back to back 40-0? Not that it's a HUGE deal, but it sounds like it's very probable.

Brittany Griner is just so huge. Reminds me of Wilt back in the day when he was 7'2" and no one else came close

So what happens when 5 years from now DNA testing and all that reveal that Griner really is a dude??

My question is what if she had a sex change. Like if a player does can they compete in the sex they changed to. I know it seems obvious they likely would, but it seems like an unfair advantage.

I really think this is what happened with Griner...

She has a crazy deep voice, size, and male characteristics. If you look at her straight on in the face, she looks like a boy.

I mean there are always big girls in the NCAAs.

Look at Lobo, she's like 6'6'' but she's still feminine.

Griner is a legit 6'8'' and looks nothing like a chick.

Well, Baylor finished 40-0. Since it's women's basketball, that athletic feat is on the same prestige as winning one event in a JV track meet, but still...40-0.
