Basketball doesn't work though. My guess is that with all the others, I'm amazed watching things I couldn't never dream of doing. And with sports like volleyball and tennis, i actually prefer the women's game because the men's serves are so much better the points seem to end quicker.
That said, and I'm being serious, many of the random morning ball squads of middle aged dudes at a utah stake center at 6 AM on a thursday could beat an WNBA team without too much trouble. It's a totally different game.
