I know what you mean. Our daughter, Diane, played varsity soccer for Lincoln High School in Tallahassee and I could never stand watching her team cry whenever they lost, so I turned off the TV as soon as the last strike was called in the Gator softball game. I knew what was coming.
It's my problem. I love the way women celebrate with each other when they win, but the crying gets to me. Come to think of it, they cry when they win, too. A.

The Florida softball team's magical season ended two wins short of a national championship Tuesday night with the 3-2 loss to Washington in the Women's College World Series title round in Oklahoma City, Okla. The 2009 team (63-5) set 39 records during its first-ever run to the WCWS championship series. Senior pitcher Stacey Nelson ended her career with 136 wins, which is sixth in NCAA record books, second in Southeastern Conference history and first in the Florida books. Her 1,116 career strikeouts ranked fourth in SEC history and first at UF. Florida ended the season with a .323 batting average, a .543 slugging percentage and .423 on-base percentage, all bests in UF history. Three Gators recorded eight single-season records, including runs (69, Aja Paculba), home runs (18, Francesca Enea) and slugging percentage (.713, Kelsey Bruder). The senior class set 17 individual career records in its four years. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
