I have season tickets to the Connecticut Women's Basketball Games. I watch it because I enjoy the precision with which they play the game and most of all, because of the team work they exhibit and the dedication they have to their sport, their school, their coach and their teammates. You are correct, it is quite unlike the men's game where, with a few exceptions such as last years Connecticut Men's team which was successful, in my estimation because they had many of those same attributes, the men seem mostly interested in a pro contract, period.
