When I just learned about Caitlin Clark late last year, and thought how cute she was, and learned how well she was playing this game about which I knew only: Ball, and Basket, I never realized I was biting off more than I could chew.
It's more than just making baskets, obviously; there's fouls, and free throws, and 3- pointers, and all sorts of crap that I DON'T WANT TO KNOW!! I never wanted to know all about this game; I just knew a little about it from playing with a little cousin, who wanted me to play with her all the time, so we played something called Around the World. I don't even know whether little kids these days play that version.
These days, when Caitlin gets into trouble, the internet throws a ton of information at you—you know our friend the internet—and I'm getting snowed with unwanted information.
I'm learning what a nice person this girl is, and her sense of humor; so no nonsense! In some ways I feel so lucky that I stumbled on such a cute person to 'Fangirl' over. On the other hand, I don't even know enough about the game to explain what happens.
I'm beginning to learn about the other members of the team, Lexie Hull, who is kind of an egghead from Stanford U, Aliyah Boston (not sure she really has two consecutive 'a's in her name) a big, friendly teddy bear of a girl who really likes to look after Caitlin; Kelsey Mitchell, and other players who have her back, and so on.
