On Line Up Changes

Men:   When you bench a guy from the starting lineup of a men's team, the other guys say, "Sounds good.  Bobby'll be ok."

Women:  Women are easier to coach than men because they listen to criticism, but they're difficult to manage because most are sensitive to slights, and their bond is stronger than on a men's team.  Therefore, when you bench a femail player, her teammates feel empathy.  They experience a debilitating catharsis towards that player and it affects them, whether the benched girl gives a damn or not.
