Tonight, the final game of the 2014 NCAA Women's Basketball Championship features an unprecedented matchup: The two teams, the University of Connecticut Lady Huskies and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. . .Women. . . . The Harridans? I don't know. Where was I?
Oh, yeah. The two teams both come into the final game undefeated! They boast a combined record of something like 1,645-0. This has never happened in the history of college basketball--men's or women's. Incredibly impressive. . . . And yet.
How seriously can one take a sport where the head coach of one of the teams in the championship game is named Muffet McGraw?
Seriously.
